***************FRIDAY***************

The last time I made an entry it was Friday afternoon. My plans to go to San Antonio had been postponed. So I ended up spending the day cleaning my apartment. I actually really enjoyed the peaceful time to myself. I didn’t have to spend much time cleaning because my place is always clean.

I spent a lot of time gardening. I had some plants to prune, I needed to water them, and I had some rearranging to do on the balcony. I love my little garden! I just wish I had a hookup on the balcony for a hose, so I wouldn’t have to keep coming back in to refill the watering can.

Later in the afternoon, Kristi and I went shopping for stuff dinner. My sister and her boyfriend were coming over to watch Love Actually and have dinner. We could not decide on anything to make, so we settled for ordering pizza and we just bought some snacks.

I bought some flowers at the grocery store too. I love having fresh flowers and I haven’t been doing that enough lately. Just having them in the apartment makes me feel so much better. Of course all the places around here have sucky flowers, but whatever! I make do with what I can find.

So Kristi and I made some drinks and sat on the balcony spying on all our neighbors. Then Michelle and Joe showed up and we had dinner and watched the movie. Amazingly, it didn’t make me cry at all this time. It was still way sad but it didn’t get any tears from me.

After the movie I was really anxious and I had all this weird energy. Michelle and Joe had left, so Kristi and I decided to take a walk. That didn’t help. I really couldn’t decide if I wanted to go out, or not. Eventually I just decided to go out, even if just for a little while.

So Kristi went home and I headed off to Rainbow by myself. I called Jorge on the way and he was going to Charlie’s. I called Leo and he was going to meet me out at Rainbow. Unfortunately Rainbow was not busy, in fact, it was practically empty.

The little red headed boy (Matt) that I have a crush on was there, so I asked him to dance. I’ve decided he’s not quit as cute up close. I think my crush is on it’s way to being over.

I left RCC and went to Charlie’s instead. Jorge was out by himself, so I hung out with him for a while. We ran into Fernando and Kiko. Leo showed up shortly afterwards. Hanging out with Leo and Jorge was a tad awkward. Not much else to say about that though.

Jorge and I had been wandering around checking out the boys. When he met Fernando he said that out of all the boys that I thought were cute, Fernando was the hottest.

Jorge and Leo started making fun of the way I was dressed, and I had to point out to them, “That’s funny because I’m the only one of us getting checked out, and I’m the only that’s had guys stop me to tell me how hot I look, so maybe it’s you two that aren’t looking so good.” BURN!

Yeah I realize that I looked like I was about to hop on a tractor and plow the fields, but that’s a hot look to a lot of boys… even if you are in the Latino bar surrounded by over styled nelly short bitches.

Crystal, Noe’s friend, came to ask me to dance. I danced with her for a while, and Noe was busy flirting with some boy in the corner. Fernando had left to take Kiko to his car, but was coming back. While I was dancing with Crystal, Fernando showed up so I went to dance with him.

We ended up dancing together all night. I had a ton of fun and I got such a great workout. There weren’t many people I knew out, so I didn’t really care about walking around socializing. We stayed dancing at the club until the DJ started playing all the go home music.

***************SATURDAY***************

Saturday I went to the apartment office to talk to Kristi for a while. I left there and went to my old apartment office to hang out with M.Lo. She had asked me to have dinner with her. I knew I was going to be having dinner with Gina, Sabrina, and Sam later on but I don’t get to hang out with M.Lo much, so I figured I should take advantage.

I went to the office and hung out there with her for about an hour, then we went to Firebowl Cafe. I went there once before with Kristi and I liked it, but Kristi didn’t, and neither did M.Lo. When we walked in the door M.Lo said, “Did you see the way those chinks were staring at us?” I said, “No, I didn’t you crazy spic.” She kills me. She’s not racist, but she says some crazy stuff.

After dinner we went to Sephora so she could get some lip liner, she’s so chola. As I’m wandering the store I pass by this girl that looks very familiar. She sees me out of the corner of her eye and stares back. It’s Camey, Brenna’s sister. So I look around and there’s Brenna.

I went to chat with her for a while and we got to talking about Desser, Jessica Simpson’s line of makeup and junk. Brenna was telling us how nasty it tasted, cuz you know you can eat all of her products. So I offered to try some. The vanilla body whip cream was kind of tastey. It tasted like merengue. The chocolate was NASTY. I wouldn’t make my worst enemies eat that shit… ok maybe I would, but that’s only because I’m just that evil.

After leaving there, I dropped M.Lo off and went home. She wanted me to go shopping with her, but I didn’t have that kind of time. I had to be at Gina’s at 7ish. Sammy came over and we headed off to Gina’s. We spent that night hanging out with her and Sabrina, eating, playing games, and drinking.

Sammy is a wiz at trivia games. NEVER play opposite him. I warn you know, make sure he is always on your team. I suck at trivia unless it’s about music or TV, then I might have a fighting chance.

We tried to play Yahtzee, but Gina was the only one that understood the game. I don’t think I’ve ever played it because it really just seems like there is too much thinking and math involved. Nope, not gonna do it.

So we played Scrabble instead. I had never played that either, but I didn’t suck so bad. At least I did better than Sabrina! Hahahahahah

I did make a jackass out of myself when I tried to convince Gina that she could make add and “I” to “DOT” to spell “idiot”. Then Sam looked at me and said, “Hmm.. that’s ironic.” We all got a good laugh out of that one.

Actually, by that point we were getting a good laugh out of a lot of things, especially Sabrina. Then odd thing is that we really hadn’t had that much to drink. I had only had two shots, a beer, and a margarita. That’s child’s play!

I think Gina was having herself a good little buzz though. I can always tell when she’s had too much because she starts slurring and trying to walk extra graceful.

We hung out there until Sam and I were starting to get sleepy, then left. I think it was about 1 or so when we left.

***************SUNDAY***************

I woke up today because my phone was ringing. Kristi called to wake me up and remind me of our trip to San Antonio. We agreed to be ready to go in thirty minutes. I waited and waited and waited. I called her a few times and got now answer.

She called me an hour and thirty minutes after we were supposed to meet because she had fallen back asleep. She said she’d get ready and call me back. She did call me back about thirty minutes later and decided to cancel the trip. She wasn’t feeling well and she’d had a rough weekend, I was totally cool with it.

So I called Jorge and we went on a road trip to Gruene. We didn’t really stay long, I didn’t care where we went, I just wanted to go for a drive. I love the drive to Gruene, through San Marco Ranch Road 12. It’s so pretty and peaceful.

Jorge and I are getting along so much better now. Normally I’m ready to stab him in the neck after about an hour of hanging out. I never got that feeling today, and we hung for about 12 hours. That’s craziness!

We went to the antique store in Gruene for a little while. Normally Jorge loves that place, but today it wasn’t working for him. He was getting overwhelmed and annoyed with it. Today he finally realized what I felt when I he used to drag me there so many times before. Even he finally said, “Yeah, I wouldn’t have wanted to come here with me either.”

I love when things click in his head and he realizes what a good boyfriend I was to him, and all the sacrifices I made for him. Things like that help me be his friend again. For so long I’ve felt like he never got what I did for him and he took advantage of my devotion to him. Best example being the day I broke up with him and asked him to give me one good reason not to leave him and he replied, “Because you’re like a mom to me. You take care of me.” Nope. Bye.

He’s grown up a lot, and he’s become a better person.

So we left Gruene and came back to my apartment to make dinner, have drinks (is that all I do lately?), and relax. So we went to get groceries, Jorge flirted with the hottie cashier (then later called and left his number), and then we went home and I cooked dinner.

I made some delicious cilantro lime chicken with some wild rice. Ok, let me be honest… I heated up some delicious cilantro lime chicken and warmed up some wild rice. It was all preseasoned. But nobody, I repeat nobody, cooks chicken like me. I have my secrets and my chicken is NEVER dry. That chicken just falls apart on the fork, and it’s the bomb.

We had some drinks and sat on the balcony while I people watched and he worked on his laptop. Actually, the majority of the night he worked on school stuff and I just watched TV and relaxed. The good thing is that he told me he was feeling depressed today and would have just been at the house feeling down if I had not called and dragged him out and about.

Things always happen for a reason, and when one door closes, another one opens. This is why I am a true believer in always having a positive outlook on life. You can find good in pretty much everything, there’s always a silver lining. Not too mention life is just way more enjoyable when you think positively.

So that was my Sunday in a nutshell.
