updates and thanks...

first the thank you's to any/all of you who had well wishes and/or prayers and/or thoughts for me, my family, and my grams.  Today she went to her consultation with the neurosurgeon and she will be having surgery on Thursday (hopefully to remove it).  I've seen her twice since I got the news.  The first time I went was last Friday.  It was def. an experience for me because for 1. I am not good with sick people.  Not in a derogatory way, just in a .... that is def. one of my major limitations in life. and 2.) It really just hurt my heart to see my Grams just not herself.  She got confused and distracted easily, she wasn't as lively as usual, and just kind of distant.  Now don't get me wrong, she still has her mind.. we still gossiped a bit and made jokes.. but just not the same.  I saw her again last night b/c my dad (her son) is in town and staying at her house.. she seemed in better spirits yesterday too.  That def made me happy... any who.. I don't want to dwell too much on this because I know she wouldn't want that.. I'm anticipating Thursday and just hoping things go well..

In other news...

The date with Mr. Pisces.. did not happen.  Oddly enough I ended up going on a pseudo date with.. I want to call him an ex, but we never had official titles but lots of feelings.. umm lets call him Mr. Sensitive.. in order for you to fully understand our pseudo date you will have to know our not so great history.. I'm currently at work though so.. I'm going to publish this post.. and then tell that story it in a bit.. stay tuned...

bad news

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,

**Miss Pisces**

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...
