30 Something

I called Troy on Sat and gave him a piece of my mind. I told him that I didn't like that he always had an excuse for spending time with me. He tried to tell me that it wasn't his fault. Finally, I just said that I didn't care anymore. On Mon he decides that we are gonna spend time together so he takes me to dinner, Olive Garden. On the way home he tells me that he will come to my house on Tues after I get off work so that we could hang. Tues gets here and he doesn't show up. WTF? I call at about 7 and he doesn't answer his phone. What kind of mind games is he playing? I don't know if I can do this anymore. Is this one of those valentines day ploys--cause conflict so that u don't have to buy a gift. My bday is right around the corner. What is he trying to do?

At 12:30 I was expecting my sis to come home so that I could take her to the interview. She didn't show up. At 1 I began to get pissed. She was skipping out on an interview that I set up for her. Finally at 2 she strolls in to tell me that the interview went well. Well thanks for letting me know that you had a ride even though I took the day off just to take you to the interview because you asked. While she was telling me how it went I noticed that she had on jeans and a t-shirt. I don't care what job it is, you never go in jeans and a t-shirt unless they tell you to. I can't believe that. She blew off the interview because of some guy.

My sister has an interview today with a job that I hooked her up with. Basically, one of my former students is the manager of a clothing store. I called her up to let her know that my sis was interviewing for a job at the store. She immediately scheduled an interview with her for today at 1. I asked my sis how it went when she went in to talk to her for the first time. She said that the manager had an attitude and that she almost just walked out on her. That bothered me because when I talked to the manager on the phone I was put off a little by her tone, but I was on a mission and I didn't let her tone bother me, my sis on the other hand isn't mature enough to know how to handle situations like that. She herself has an attitude problem so when dealing with someone who seems to have an attitude it doesn't work in her favor. I hope and pray when she goes into this interview that she leaves the chip at the door. She doesn't realize that she has to smile and play the game to get what she wants. She does it well with guys, but when it comes to dealing with other females it almost always go down the tubes. I hope she can get it together cause I won't be supporting her too much longer.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!

My sis is beginning to be a pain. She insists that she can stay out as long as she wants with this new guy that she met. I told her that she needs to pay me rent if she's gonna behave as an adult even though she's only 17. This upsets me because I can't imagine why she wants to grow up so fast. Grown ups pay bills and have responsibilities that they wish could be pawned off on someone else. At least that's the way that I feel sometimes. As a matter of fact I didn't feel grown up until I was at least 25.

For my April 5th month til 30th b-day celebration I bought myself a really nice gift. A .33ct gold ring insured for about 1500. I was so happy. Of course I didn't pay that much for it. I only paid less than $130 and my dear friend, Mike, picked up the $250 tab on it. I got it from the pawn shop. To me that is one place that u can find a good deal on jewelry. Of course there are some ppl who have a problem with second hand clothes or furniture, but u can't beat second-hand jewelry. There is no sign that it ever belonged to anyone else. So now I'm on the countdown til 30 and I don't know what I want to do. I think i'm gonna invite all of my friends over for dinner or to go out to dinner or something. I don't know what I want to do, but I gotta do something.

I told Mister about my new man and that for some reason turned him on. I told him my frustrations and he decided to remedy them with new toys that he wanted to try. I admit we had a good time, but there's something disturbing about a guy who wants to get with another man's woman. I called him on yesterday to come look at my tv because it seemed to be falling off the wall and since I didn't want to be bothered with t-roy I called him. He came over and on the way out he kissed me and i got all nervous and sweaty--my heart was racing. i just wanted to be held, but he wanted the punanny. we made plans to see each other later, but i got really sleepy. i called him yesterday any we hooked up. of course t-roy called. i wasn't in the mood to talk to him. i called him back really late after the fiasco with my lil sis. he didn't answer the phone. oh well. btw, deon text me too. he's the other guy that i get excited about when i hear from him.

My sister who is 17 has been living with me since January. Up until this past week she's been almost perfect. She cooks, cleans, does the laundry and goes to school and doesn't have an attitude about anything. Despite all of this, she's bored out of her mind. My solution was for her get a job. She will be 18 in September and she only goes to school for half days so she has all the time in the world to work. McDonalds is within walking distance to where we live, so it seemed like the perfect place to work, but no, she's not "may I take ur order" material. For some reason, she's too good for McDonalds, so she's been trying to find a job any where else which has failed. Plus, she has this "i'm the baby girl, everyone is supposed to take care of me" mentality. Because she's a very pretty girl with the body of a 25 year old, she get's hit on by a lot of guys, which I've told her time and time again that she needed to be careful about the guys that she meets. I also told her that she has no business dating anyone over 20--she's only 17. I've met several of the guys that were interested in her and the seemed to be nice, but this one that she has the hots for I do not like at all. He's 21 (or so she said) doesn't work, has bullet holes all over his body, wears a gold grill in his mouth, says he wants to be a rapper and says he hustle his cd's out of his car. She's been hanging out with him for the last couple of days and yesterday was my last straw. My instructions were that if she leaves the house and I'm not there, leave me a note telling me who she's with and a phone number. Well, for two days she left and there was no note, so my solution was to lock her out if she did it again. I guess she finally got it because she decided to leave me a note before I could lock her out. This was okay but last night she took it too far. She called at about 8:30 and asked if she could go to St. Louis with this guy. I asked her where she was going to be staying. She said his aunt's house. I told her that she needed to call home and ask if she could stay with family instead of his aunt. She agreed. However, at about 1 in the morning I decide to call her. She said that they were going to stay at the hotel. WHAT? That wasn't the plan. I asked to speak to him and he didn't know what was going on. They kept saying that the concert was at 10 in a club (she can't get into any clubs at 17) and he didn't know where it was going to be and they were going to his aunt's house. I was hot. So I went to sleep trying to think of a master plan. I got up this morning and called her. She said that they stayed at his aunt's house. I told her that I was disappointed and that she should have planned this better. I then told her that I was coming to where she was, but she couldn't give me an address to where she was. I then looked to see when the concert was and found that it was 7:30 not 10. this wasn't adding up. So instead of getting upset I'm just gonna lay it down for her, if I can't trust her to tell me where she's gonna be and when, they she can't go. Her other option is to go home. I'm not her mother i don't want to worry about her. Maybe I'm selfish, but I don't need to headache. If she thinks that she can do what she want when she want, then that fine, but not here with me.

Well, I've been dating t-roy for a couple of weeks now and it's okay, but I'm getting a little bored with him, so Al and I've been texting each other and flirting like crazy. We've even been talking about marriage (not to each other, but in general). I'm really ready to make the leap and I need to choose between the two because I don't want to date anyone else. I"m tired of going in circles. So as always when I need to make a decision I have to list the pros and cons of each to help me decide.

Al T-roy
Short Tall like I like em
Good job(40K +) Looking for a better job
Has two sons Has two daughters
Fun to be around Can get on my nerves
Wears a bluetooth(gross) Seeks to please his cousin
From my hometown Decatur native
Good Kisser Has this tongue flicker thing going on (ugh)


I don't know, the both have their flaws and idiosyncrasys that I don't like.

A lot of girls do the "i'm pregnant" April Fools joke, but I took it one step further. I told my bf that I was preg, but I said that I didn't know if it was his or not. It was so funny. I had it set up good. He asked me on Sat if I would join him for dinner at his sis house, which I told him that I'd think about, but I was leaning towards not going. I told him that I'd call him before church on Sunday to let him know. Instead I sent a text saying that I wouldn't be able to make it to dinner and that we needed to talk. Of course anytime someone says, "we need to talk, u brace urself." So I later called and asked if he got my text and after a little small talk he asked if I went to church and I said that I hadn't because I didn't feel well. Then I sprung it on him, "i'm pregnant," There was silence for what seemed like forever. The he had to put me on hold and when he came back I broke it down even more, "I just need to figure out who's it is." There was silence and then he asked, "So u was seeing someone before me, what it ur ex?" I told him that it wasn't. Silence. "Well at least u being up front about that." Silence. Me, "man my phone tripping the time is acting crazy I need to set it. What's today?" Him, " the first of the month...(pause) aw man, u trippin." I cracked up. It was so funny. He said that he was gonna give me a word or two about not knowing who it was. He said he was also trippin cause he knew we used condoms. Then he said he started making plans in his head about "steppin up his game--going to find a better job, etc." I just cracked up. I will say that one thing that kind of urked me was the fact that he needed an announcement of a new baby to "step up his game and look for a new job." I guess I understand, but dag, can't u do that now. Y not try to improve urself now instead of waiting for life to make that decision for u? I was going to do that same joke on Al, but I didn't have the energy.
