OMG, miscommunication is a bitch!!

So, I was supposed to have date tonight...needless to say I'm now sitting here blogging. UGH, so I call her and askw what time she wanna go...she is at the beauty shop...getting cute for our date TOMORROW!!! I told her I can't go tomorrow...lil' sis's bday party and I'm hosting...and it's an all-day BBQ, so I suggest later on that night...she has to work at 5...so...this is how married life is?? I'm not looking forward to it(I really am, but no this part of it). but I will be able to go out with the BFFs though..so I guess that's some consolation...if these mu'uhfuckahs don't make me kill them first!! I swear sometimes...I am the only sensible person I know! but at any rate....check out the sound clip(click the link) ...it is Vera and Benny going at it over his poor eyesight and her hunger, HILARIOUS!!!

Oh...and I need to pray for Upward Mobility...he's thinkng of turning to ho'ing to make ends meet...I don't think it's that deep...but I guess.

And the Girl with the Open Mind tried to chat with me today via video and voice on Yahoo Messenger...it was a bust..she could hear me, but I couldn't hear her... CRAZINESS.

SO I have been home..I love my people. I wanna go out on a date..but at this point it looks like we won't be able to pull it off before she leaves for school. She leaves the 15th...and the last check won't be sent until the 8th...let's hope it gets here before she leaves....I don'twanna be a sucky Boyfriend!
At any rate...I'm glad to be home..this house is packed...but right now I'm glad to be home. BUT I can feel myself getting sick of these folks real soon, not that i love them any less, I just know how we all are! They want me to do stuff and I don't wanna do it and then we all end up mad. I guess I better check with Malpractice to see when he's heading back..I might need to escape early and stay with him for a couple days! IDK yet...but you will know as soon as I do!
I can't wait for this week to be over. I will be able to hang out with my BFFs...i missed those guys...but the words aren't flowing right now...so I shall leave you with this:

A Negro Love Song
by Paul Laurence Dunbar
Seen my lady home las' night, Jump back, honey, jump back. Hel' huh han' an' sque'z it tight, Jump back, honey, jump back. Hyeahd huh sigh a little sigh, Seen a light gleam f'om huh eye, An' a smile go flittin' by-- Jump back, honey, jump back. Hyeahd de win' blow thoo de pine, Jump back, honey, jump back, Mockin'-bird was singin' fine, Jump back, honey, jump back. An' my hea't was beatin' so, When I reached my lady's do', Dat I couldn't ba' to go-- Jump back, honey, jump back. Put my ahm aroun' huh wais', Jump back, honey, jump back. Raised huh lips an' took a tase, Jump back, honey, jump back. Love me, honey, love me true? Love me well ez I love you? An' she answe'd, "'Cose I do"-- Jump back, honey, jump back.

another day's journey

So, I am currently on the Megabus heading home from Chicago. Getting to Chicago was HELL! I missed my flight thursday because my bag was too tall and I didn't have money for a fee. So I told them I would have the money on Friday evening, these fools trade me over to the 205 flight, I said that's too early. They said okay you can ttake a later flight; I'm thinking they put me on the later flight, mistaken. So I get there and I'm satanding by and then the flight is delayed so I'm gonna miss my connector. I call Fave cousin nd she finds me an alternate ticket for Saturday morning. I go back to my room yet again. So I decide that I'm not missing this new flight, I go out and we have a ball! I'm really gonna miss these folks! And it's been decided that the Homecoming at my college will serve as reunion headquarters. Finally I get to go home and see my folk, I really missed these ol' crazies! About to sleep. More later.

I didn't think it would be like this...

So...today is my last day in DC. It's bittersweet: I am so glad to be seeing my fave cousin and eventually the rest of my family; but I am sad to leave behind the new friends I have made. I know that the program wasn't that long but there were great times! Great laughs! When i first got here I didn't even want to hang out with anyone, but I mean I am human, and i need to talk to someone every now and then. I am sitting at work and the office is really slow right now. The other interns aren't in the office, most staffers aren't in either. But I did have a great day! Bosslady took me to this great eating establishment and had a nice chat, I'll miss her...she's the first liberal catholic I have ever met...who actually claims the title! Southern Charm came and talked to me about keeping kosher...I swear she and Bosslady are like walking encyclopedias!! Quiet Strength is in Korea for an exchange program...so I didn't get to say bye to her, :(. Sassy Lady was a life-saver during this program! I mean could you really imagine me without tv for 9 weeks?? I think not! and then she waited for me this morning as I carried my luggage from floor 8 to floor 1!! Jenn: CRAZY as all ge tout..but then again she always was one my favorites!! And Christina...she be on her jo...but she knows how to have a laugh as well. Sam is just a nut!! and Leslie is just the nicest person...I mean I had heard nightmare stories about COSs but she was really cool!! and they were as excited about my bill passing in our mock congress as I was! I am not even gonna start on the friends made outside the office...there are just too many memories...I'll share some later, once I get to Chicago..or maybe back home(I'm not Sure Fave Cousin has the interwebs).

I really hate the endings of things...I think is probably the only conservative thing in my whole persona...why do things end?? but then of course once I'm gone, the ending doesn't seem so bad. I am gonna look back on this and see it as a lesson surely to be learned from!

I'm out for now...we'll see about bloggin in the airport...I'm nto about to pay for internet access...OMG..I have to sit in Hartsfield-Jackson ATL International Airport for two hours...I hope I am able to stay awake...I swear in the last 72 hours..I have had maybe a total of 9 hours of sleep..I can't wait to get on this plane...I'm gonna be knocked out!! and I'll catch everyone up on the goings on of the last week or two...really...this time I'm out!

Come Again...

So, I went to the cookout, and yes...I got real ignant with that food. I took whole trays of food I took cases of pop (I hate Pepsi, but I took that shit to prove a point). Why the fuck did this inept dude act like he was lookin out for us as wee took food?? talkin about yeah, take it all...I mean y'all know I can't let y'all go hungry. OMG...give me a FUCKING break!! So yesterday felt sort like Thanksgiving...all i did all day was lounge and eat...and I mean I ate...ALL Damn DAY!!! lol oh, yeah...i had some vodka too...which is always fun when its flavored like sour apple!!!

so today...I didn't do a damn thing, I again lounged and ate...it was amazing...but then again...this is why I'm fat now. But I digress...

My buddy decided to cook dinner today...so I still haven't had to use my last two pieces of Tilapia, and that fish is gonna be good!! But enough about food...I do think about other things, even if it doesn't seem like it. Last night I hung out with Precious, Dria da Diva(for a very short time) Wierdo #1, and Angie D: AMAZING!! we watched Soul Food and Terms of Endearment...these movies have such a different meaning from when i first saw them...I really think everyone must see Terms of Endearment...it is a chick flick....but it is necessary! I also had the pleasure to see this movie i watched everyday for a month when i was in like 4th grade, Jack the Bear. This movie was crazy to me when I was younger, btu now that I'm an adult...this shit is even CRAZIER, and I understand why its crazy now!! This movie is about Murphy's law in reality...everything that could go wrong to this family did...from death, kidnapping, unemployment, trauma, revenge...I mean you name it...it happened...but it did work out in the end...it kinda made me wanna go see Radio Flyer. Radio Flyer is about this kid that gets abused, and somehow the older brother doesn't get abused...they decide to turn a wagon into a plane...the younger brother escapes. I looked it up on Wikipedia.org, and I was surprised by the meanings folks got form the movie: some think that the younger brother died at lift-off, or maybe the flight was a metaphor for suicide, or that the step-father beat him to death and his big brother suppressed the memory and changed it so that he wouldn't have to deal with it. Another, even more disturbing thought is that there really was no younger brother, but that the
older" brother created the younger brother to deal with his own abuse...this is some craziness..but it would explain why only the younger brother was abused...I cannot for the life of me understand why I used to watch this movie...it makes me sad to think that kids actually go through that sort of thing. food for thought...

On a lighter note, Malpractice is coming down to DC this weekend...and I'm going to NYC on FRIDAY!!! I can't wait...there will be pics..don't worry!! and I will most certainly be out of it this weekend!

You Can't Be Serious...Right??

So this was actually a great week for the majority of the thing. I had a great work-week, I mean the bill for CIA got done, I wrote a nice letter, and I got to hang out with the other Black intern for his last week...I mean it was pretty chill. Nothing adventurous happened after work, especially since I don't drink during the work-week. I was, however, able to have some killer dinners: one night I had a frittata with some fried pork chops...AMAZING!!, then i had some damn good spaghetti, I used some really good spinach in it, and then I finally had some tilapia with lemon pepper and some steamed broccoli and some really good mashed taters.

So Tuesday, we have these internship meetings. Why did the program coordinator start to almost cry when he was telling us that he didn't appreciate us "attacking" him in our weekly journals? I don't think he needs to take criticism of the program so personally...but who am i?? So after he finishes his bitch-fit, he tells us that we need to stop pressuring him about getting money. He went on to tell us that when he was an intern, he wouldn't get paid for like three weeks, and they wouldn't say anything about it.

Why did he just pull the most chickenshit move ever?? He left the damn checks in his office, b/c he didn't want to distribute them in front of the donors. I personally don't have any issue with that, but I can't stand that he acted like we were out of line for asking about getting paid. Personally, IDK how I'm gonna eat this weekend, and IDK how I'm gonna get to work, since I used my emergency ride to get back to the school today. but that isn't the worst part, I tried to ask this bitch-ass muthafucka and he had the gall, the nerve, the audacity to run away from me without answering my question. He got paid, because he has direct deposit...so he ain't struggling. So after alll of this...I get back to the dorm, I go to my friend's room b/c the roommate is having a party, why the fuck does this bitch show up...and get this...with t-shirts for a cookout we have to go to tomorrow. He tells everyone that we are getting paid on Monday...I, of course, was not present for this. I will definitely be getting real ignant at this cookout..I'm taking tupperware and everything...i will definitely get real stupid since he wanna act stupid. And if he tries to shoo me away when I approach him about it, I will definitely go above his head...and inform him, and his boss, and her boss that I will not be reporting to work on monday or Tuesday, seeing as I have no food or money to get to work. SO, at this point...FUCK the CBCF!!!

Can you believe this shit?? I can't!!!

Think I'm gonna start an online thinktank...I'll need contributors. I wanna do it on here, so after I figure out what I need to do exactly to create one..I'll be back..for now, I have to go to bed..I'm so exhausted!!



whatever...I'm out 'til later
