Today is not a good day...
I just found out my (favorite) grandmother has a massive tumor growing on her brain... hopefully we'll find out if it is operable today.. Please keep her in your prayers..

Thanks...

Why am I awake you ask??

Tonight (well really Sunday night) I had to work, and my coworkers and I went to this bar in downtown Decatur (a small city about 15 min east of ATL) named Zucca's. 

They recently started an "Industry Night" on Sundays (that is for people in the service industry btw) so we decided to check it out when we got off. Had a freakin blast!! I was drinking Bacardi Peach Red w/ Ginger Ale & a Splash of lime juice. 

I recommend that drink to all ladies who like a little sweet... come to think of it, I may start doing a drink recipe section on this site... being a bartender and all.. is that something you'd be interested in??  Any who... for whatever reason, this past weekend we (at my job) were fixated on "The Hustle" and learning how to do it.. after polling everyone at work, we youtube'd it and found this great video:


After mastering the moves at work... we took our newfound knowledge to the dance floor at Zucca's! You best believe we shut it down... hahahah...I did have to beg the DJ to play the song... but it was totally worth it. That was the first time we've all hung out before.. I had a great great time!

So back to the point.. I'm awake right now because I was catching up on the Blogger Coffee Shop Forum.. checking out some new blogs to add to my Google Reader.. and catching up on my shows... I've made it to Season 2 of Ghost Whisperer by the way...I have been a crazy insomniac lately.. my sleep schedule is shot to hell, and I can only hope to get things back in check soon...

** Sidebar** I'm off next Saturday and I told Mr. Pisces, so I'm thinking that may be the night of our date... well his exact response was "Then lets do it!" ...so provided he follows up in an appropriate manner, I guess we'll have a date.  Also, The Old Man surprised me at work last night.. he's still half way in denial.. but for every step he takes to acting better, he takes 2 backwards shortly following..hahah.. 

ok, I'm gonna try and sleep now.. or at the very least lay down.. 

Tata,

Afternoon thought...


They say you know its time to leave a city when you are no longer inspired when you see its skyline...(or something to that effect).  For the longest I had always said when I finished college I was moving out of Atlanta (I'm originally from NY so, ATL is not my home home) to somewhere else.. back up North maybe.  Then one day something switched.. I just started loving ATL.. not in the I rep Atlanta everywhere I go type love, but just the... yeah this is where I live!!  On my way to work every evening I get to see this amazing view of 2 skylines.. Buckhead and Atlanta.. at night when all the lights are on.. its simply gorgeous. I don't have the actual pictures but here is one that def does my city justice...  


There is also the spot on I-20 that has another amazing view.  I tried to get a pic of it last night and almost got off on an exit not paying attention =O lol.. so needless to say that didn't turn out sooo hot. I may still post it later though... for now, I'm off to work.

..updated...

here are some day time shots while on the way to work....
Buckhead.. from 400S

Atlanta.. from 85S

I'm gonna try and get some night time shots when I leave... what do you guys think of my city?

procrastination and acceptance..or lack thereof


... I have work to do. School work. like... MBA, Grad School, type School work. 

But what am I doing instead? Watching Season 1 of The Ghost Whisperer online...

I started doing some of my readings while at JOB #1 this morning.. but we were very busy and spider solitaire was challenging today.. sooo I think I got a good 2 paragraphs in.. yes!! Apparently I am in denial about the actual load of work I have to do for this week. Much like my most recent ex (the old man) is in denial about our break up.

Have you ever experienced that?

We were talking yesterday... actually it was more like early this morning.. and he kept referring to me as "his girl" and I had to keep reminding him .."no we're not together" him: "yeah I just can't accept that, I told you that you can't quit me." Um hi.. WHAT?!? 


Is that how it works now? If one party objects, the other person's decision/desires/needs are now null and void? I feel as though I should be flattered in a sense that he doesn't want to let me go.. but he's still not changing anything either...sooo.. it's kind of like.. hmm maybe you just don't want anyone else to have me.. it may not even really be about me at all.. HAHA.. yea right! lol.. well...idk.. On a "funner" note, that guy I dated back in 08.. we'll call him.. hmmm Mr. Pisces (b/c he's a Pisces like me).. well he called today to reiterate to me that he wants to take me on a date sooner than later.. I'm a bit ambiguous about it simply because we were kindof close to starting something real and then.. ehh that's another post.. but anywho.. I'm intrigued to see if anything will come of this.. After dating someone so much older than me, I'm slightly ashamed excited ready interested happy ready to see what it will be like to date someone my age.  


Audience Question(s)?? ++Have you ever dated someone w/a big age gap?++ How did it compare to dating someone closer to your age?++ Have you had someone reject your break up attempts?++ I'd love to hear about it!!

Thanks for stopping by.. Follow me if you like what you read! Stay up to date!! :-)

See that? I'm already doing better!

Today has already been a productive-ass day! Kindof. well if not productive at least triumphant!
Remember that "roomate" I had for like a week? Well she was really trying to not give me my house key back for like over a week and it was PISSING me the F**** off!So, after quite a few ignored phone calls and BBM's (Blackberry messenger for all my non BB-ers out there) she finally decides to answer me.  Needless to say I rushed over there as soon as my nails were done. Yes, beauty comes first.  I love keeping my nails looking good, and trust me they needed a fill-in BADLY!! So anywho, got the key w/o any drama Thank God.  I am not one to burn bridges with friends, but that is one friendship I do not mind ending.  Do you know I even got this girl heiffer a job as a server at the club I work, and she just didn't show up for her 3rd day of training! That's that bull shit. Now I think she is free-loading off someone else while her 2 kids are staying w/their grandfather. tsk tsk...

In other news, If you notice for the post prior to this I'm testing out this mobile blogging thing, although in reality I just don't think my life is THAT interesting that I need to be able to blog on the go.. but hey, you never know right?  Really I just wanted to post a pic of the NEW CAR. I finally got my tags today! How lame is it that I'm excited about tags? A 'lot yes I know. Really I'm happy because now I can get my Cruise Card for the toll plaza back! woop woop. But I am gonna try to post the pics sometime tonight, even if not through the mobile blog.. ohh apparently my service provider is not supported.. hmm are google and sprint beefing??

I have been trying to gain more readers via the "coffee shop" forum on blogger help.. I'm not sure if its working so.. if you'd be a dear and comment or follow and let me know your origin I'd be ever grateful..I'm kindof diggin the forum though simply because I get to find out about so many different blogs.  Now I'm not saying every blog I've found has been great or even interesting to me, but I wouldn't have found them otherwise.. ya know? I feel bad though because I read my blogs through Google Reader (which is AWESOME for keeping up w/multiple blogs btw) so a lot of the ones I am "following" per se, I'm not following on their " Follow Me" thing.. ehh oh well. At least they got a reader hit right? I'm just trying to get my readership up right now.. so if you like what you read.. please check back for future updates.

~Thanks for stopping by!~

Trying out this mobile blogging thing. Bear w/me. :)

Is anybody still there??


Hello! Happy 2009 and 2010! Yes, it has been THAT long since I have updated this blog.. am I ashamed? Yes, indeed. How has everyone's life been over the past year and a half? I noticed that almost all of the blogs I was following in 2008 have not been updated in about as long as this one.. great minds think alike perhaps?? haha... Ok time for some updates...(drumrollsssss)

-I MOVED!! I now live ALONE!!! in a great townhouse loft in Atlanta. (you have no clue how happy I am!)

-I now have 2 jobs! I got one of them back in 2008 I just forgot to blog it.. but I kind of both of them. Ok, hate is too strong... I don't really care for either of them.. yes, thats better. However, I will not make the mistake this time of quitting a job before having another one. no sir.

-The older beau and I broke up on Tuesday.. it was a ridiculous rollercoaster of a relationship for 1.5 years... the worst part is, I'm still giving him another month to get his act together and try and win me back.. (stupido yes I know)

-since my break up, I've already been asked on a date (by a guy I dated briefly in the beginning of '08 and who I also went to HS with [go figure] AND visited by an "ex" from college who drunkenly asked me to be his date to a mutual friend's wedding... there is hope for me yet.. haha

-I started graduate school!! I'm getting my MBA in Management. One of the smarter things I've done in the past year and change.

-I bought a new (used) car because my old car (my baby: Protehj (protege)) had run her course. It is a 98 Acura CL.. I love it in theory but not in reality because he (I just decided its gonna be a he..lol) is already giving my issues. The Check Engine light keeps coming back on.. and I think it has something to do with the transmission-esque area. Not the actual transmission but the Torque Converter thing.. I've been doing some research. So needless to say, that makes me QUITE unhappy. Once I get that fixed though, I'm hoping to really love him. hahah

-I had a roommate for a week.. trying to help a friend out, and she may have singlehandedly convinced me to never help another friend in need again.. haha.. (she WILL be getting a post dedicated to her soon)

... and there you have it. My life has had some definite excitements and improvements in the past... year.. but I'm still same old me.. same old man dramas... well not same same, but you get the drift.

Ok.. that's enough for tonight. I PROMISE to do better. I will try and blog at least twice a week for the next month.. how's that? :-)

~~Until next time,

MissPisces!
