I have a bit of a headache right now. It’s late and I want to be in bed, but I’m going to finish my whiskey and Coke first. I woke up early today and started cleaning house. I got on my hands and knees and scrubbed the floors. I freaking hate mopping. The entire time I was doing it I kept thinking that it’s time to hire a cleaning lady again. Cleaning like that is a pain in the ass and I’d rather just hire someone else to do it for me. My apartment stays pretty darn clean, I could hire someone to do it once a month and be fine. Now I just have to figure out who.

I went to get my haircut at noon and I got it all shaved off. I was going to have it clean shaved, like NO hair at all, but Rebecca talked me into doing a short buzz. I’ll post pictures tomorrow. I like it, and it definitely feels cooler. It’s weird being able to feel the wind on my scalp, that’s something that I’ve never felt before. It’s not nice feeling the hot sun burning it though. I’ll have to be sure to wear caps or sunscreen when I go out. Having a sunburned and peeling scalp would not be sexy. Eeuuuwww

I met up with Sam after the haircut and we went to get lunch at the Hyde Park Bar & Grill. There was a cute waiter boy working there that I was flirting with, and now that I think about it, I’ve flirted with him before when I went with my sister. I remember he kept making the rounds of our area over and over and over again and we all thought it was weird.

Lunch was delicious… especially the drinks. Sammy had some Mimosas and I had two Bloody Marys, and boy were they strong. I wasn’t drunk but I sure did need a nap. We will have to remember that the HPG has $2 drinks during lunch on Saturdays. Mmmm and the fried egg sandwich was awesome. OMG so good.

As we were leaving the cute waiter boy said bye to me and “see you soon.” Then as we walked around the back he was out back smoking and he waived at me. Sammy was insisting that I go give him my number because he said he was cute and he looked like someone that might actually be normal and can carry on a conversation, as opposed to alll of the other boys I date.

Sammy was hardcore raging on all my exes and I couldn’t help but laugh because it’s all basically true. I have yet to date someone that all of my friends have loved and thought was normal. Of course, pleasing all of my friends would be pretty much impossible, so I don’t ever think that’s going to happen. I don’t get all offended when friends rag on my men. They don’t have to like who I date and I know they aren’t being evil, so it’s no big deal.

I met up with Xoch next and we went shopping for cell phones. Why does the Sprint store put you on a waiting list to get sale help? This has got to be the dumbest thing ever. They have a hostess at the door that takes your name and tells you that they’ll call you when a tech is available and they have like an hour and a half wait. Um… No. If you have that kind of wait on a regular basis (and she said they did, and offered us the opportunity to make a reservation for another day) then it’s time you start hiring more people. DUMB… JUST DUMB.

We stopped by Smith and Hawken to see if the beautiful (but married) Zach was working, but he was not, so we went to Best Buy and looked at the Sprint phones there. In like two minutes we had three different sales people offer to help us. Now that’s what service is all about. Stupid Sprint! She didn’t end up buying a phone and we went to Crate and Barrell instead.

I found lots of cute stuff at the C&B, but nothing I couldn’t live without. It’s not like I don’t have enough stuff already. I really shouldn’t be shopping at all. I barely have room for the stuff I currently own!

After shopping with her, I met up with M.Lo and we went shopping at Highland Mall. Ugh, that place is seriously ghetto. I’m surprised we didn’t get jacked while shopping there. The good thing about the place is that it has awesome people watching. There are some crazy freaks up in the Highland Mall… seriously disturbed people.

I saw this woman pushing a stroller with her 5 children around her, and she ran over one of her little girls with the stroller. The poor little girl was on the ground screaming and I couldn’t help but laugh. How evil am I? But seriously, how are you going to run over your own damn kid with a stroller? And it was a big stroller too, like one of those big industrial mall strollers that you have to rent, and that poor girl was like 5 years old… all hit in a roll by.

We didn’t find anything at the mall and were starting to fear for our safety, so we went to get drinks at Baby A’s. OMG we had the worst waiter. He straight up ignored us. We were hating on him with a fierceness. M.Lo was giving him some serious ojo, and we left him a $1 tip. We should have left him a receipt full of the cusses!

I had left my apartment at 11:30AM and at this point it was now about 8PM and I was exhausted from running around in the heat all day and having drinks at two different points. I dropped of M.Lo and I went home to nap. I woke up with a headache and decided against going out dancing. I really wasn’t up for it. As soon as I’m done typing this, I’m getting in bed and going to sleep… um and I guess that’ll be now.
