As I type this, there is some annoying 50 year old lady with a lisp behind me talking about how drunk she got over the weekend and how much all these young guys were hitting on her. Md annoying. Anyway, my weekend went by pretty quick again, and here I am at lunch on Monday. Today flew by pretty quick as well. I'm stumped with the 3 loans I'm still continuing to work on from Friday and I hope I get them done ASAP. Today is also presidents day, so the streets and the cubicles at my work are deserted. I was wondering how I got to work so early.
Over the weekend I really just chilled out. I watched BEAN with my sister, and I went out Friday and Saturday to the bar in downtown fort worth with kolby. Apparently we are cool again. Some of his old friends from high school apparently rented out a hotel in downtown fort worth for the weekend and they were all going downtown to celebrate. I wasn't really in the mood on Friday because I was mad tired and drained from work already. In fact, right after work, I left and went straight over to hulen mall area to eat with my parents, sister, and Bryan. I guess straight is kind of an understatement. More like diagonal. Or zig zag. My dad gave me awful directions so I ended up getting lost and somehow wound up in kennedale area all the way over by Arlington on the 20. My gps on my phone led me to a dark alleyway that I was sure I would probably get robbed in if I stayed longer than a moment to catch my bearings. I finally managed to find where I was and managed to find the place after another long 30 min of driving.
It was nice to catch up with Bryan. He is only in town for this week, so hopefully we can hang out. After dinner, I went back home with the family and watched part of bean with Stacey. That's when kolby started blowing up my phone,.... Well, he was blowing it up most of the day but moreso now about the hotel party shindig. I was still debating if I wanted to go or not, chris was at some wedding thing and Shadi had Spanish homework he had to study. Anyway, I ended up going and met all of them at library. Kolby had previously texted me and told me it was him and another guy and 11 girls. He wasn't lying.
From the looks of it, when I walked over to their group next to the pool table, dressed sharp with my blazer and 5 o'clock shadow, I went straight up to kolby and shook his hand. I def. Gt a head turn from a majority of the group, which is always a good sign, and I saw some playful giggling between a few of them amongst each other which basically signifies to me, the were down. Kolby was playing pool so rather tha stand there awkwardly, I went and got myself a drink. I wanted something new and improved this time, something crazy with a touch of silly. The first drink that came to find was a vodka tonic.

New and improved
It's been awhile since I have updated this thing and I have already broken my promise about updating this thing on a daily basis... I'll try and catch up right now on what's been going on lately.
2/16 today. Today has blown by pretty quickly at work. I actually got more sleep than usual (like 15 minutes more) and I'm not tired at work. I was so involved in working the loan from yesterday that I didn't take a break until 12. I'm slowly starting to get how to navigate thru all the systems to get the answers I need. I also see why these loans can take super long too and get really intensely complicated. Luckily, I finished all the loans I had and the one I have been working on all morning I sent to SLR to review. That SLR is shaiza, who I feel as though I'm starting to wear my welcome with because I'm constantly asking questions. I don't think she takes into account that I have no underwriting experience and just assumes I know everything, Including all the underwriter terms and lingo. Oh well, I don't care what she thinks, I'm still going to ask a million questions when I get back from lunch.
2/15 the highlight today was that I got to go the mavs game and watch them play the nuggets. I got a text from my BFF Maria who told me she couldn't make it to the game tonight but Sam, Shadi, moo rehouse, and kaley all can still go. I still felt deep down that moorehouse(we call her frosted flake for a reason) and kaley aka (BAIL-ey) were going to flake in the end, but they actually ended up pulling through. I was seriously impressed. Sam had to back out for ritual stuff with Pi kapp, and shad was going to show up late because his sister has school today so he has to fill in for her. Either way, it was going to be a good time.
I made the mistake of wearing a cardigan today with pants and a button up. Yeah I looked stylish, but I forgot that for whatever reason they turn the heat up after lunchtime. I really don't know why. After my lunch, I literally had a mini-panic attack because I was about to overheat... Maybe I need more coolant or something. Lol. I couldn't leave and take a break at that time either because I was just on break... So yeah I was in a bad spot. I couldn't even proceed with loans because it was so hot. I just stared blankly at the computer screen. I tried the infamous breath out of your mouth and blow the exhaled breath up to cool my face, but that only works so well. Needless to say, I managed to survive somehow.
After the game, I headed to the nearest walmart or target (I got lost during lunch trying to find one that was supposedly located only 10 minutes away from work because my gps kept re-calculating) and because of that, I was later than expected. Kaley and moorehouse were already at ginger mans when I got there finally. They were sitting on the "patio" which most people would consider the back, but in real terms they were sitting right out front and didn't even alert me where they were when I walked past them. What great friends.
After that, we headed to stub hub building to pick up the tickets. We ended up getting lost on the way back because we took the wrong elevator and ended up walking around in circles. It was pretty funny.
When we finally made it to the game, my phone was on the verge of dying so I gave shads number to moorehouse. Shad was supposed to call moorehouse whenever he had arrived. For whatever reason, moorehouses phone deleted his number randomly and my phone was too dead to start so we just had to wait in hopes he would contact us and that her phone would work (she was having tech issues all the time with it). Luckily, he called and we all met up.
The overall game was fun.. We blew them out by like 20 or 30, but we had some highlights all the way including some drunk guy screaming obscenities behind us even though the mavs were up big. Calm down, buddy. What's funny is the chick he brought was hot. Whatever she saw in him, nobody knows. Near the end of the game we moved down a few rows and were standing up and ANOTHER guy was yelling at us to sit down. People take this game way too seriously I guess. After the game was over we all headed back home.
I have to mention a few things thou first... One, chris bates was absolutely blowing up my phone because he wanted to go to the celtics game on Monday. I was at work though, so my free time was limited to being able to answer him and my phone died after work was over. Ka,ey ended up texting him and telling him about the mavs game we were at and he ended up flipping out on me on the phone. Luckily, I put myself kaley(who called to try and warn me that chris was nuts) shad and chris on the line. Let hilarity ensue. See chris has to work and usually can never request off from work, so I really doubted he would've been able to make the game... But according to him I should've still asked him anyway because, "I can get off whenever I want too."

Coolas
Today was another long day. I swear, they always forget to turn the AC on after 2 when I get back from my lunch. Today at least, I got to finally log into and start up my computer.... Kinda. I got past the first screen and got my A number (just like at fidelity) but I'm missing an AU number or some crap so I still can't log into the computer totally yet. Ad because of this, this meant another long day of shadowing Charles and watching him do loans.
For the second day in a row, Quincy and I sat with Charles and watched him do loans. Charles is a pretty cool cat, real laid back, real helpful, and always down to chill. The whole time I thought he was a Christian but he is actually a jahova's witness... Pretty crazy, and pretty sad at the same time because he isn't really a Christian. The day went by pretty slow again as usual. I took my usual designated breaks to go check my phone and I found out from Charles that some Mexican chick 2 cubicles down thinks I'm hot... But like I said in my earlier posts, there is virtually no hot girls on the floor. Besides my manager, and a MILF 2 cubicles down. Both are married/boyfriended though. I still don't know half the people on my team, and apparently, Friday is jersey day so I might officially be breaking out my Paul pierce shirt that bates got me for Christmas. Ohh yess. The super bowl is this Sunday so I got to find a super bowl, party to be attending for sure.
I went out to lunch with charles (Quincy was going to come but he only had a 30 minute lunch). He ended up driving and we went to chick filet. He kept going on and on to both Quincy and me about how much I look like the twilght guy and that I could probably get any girl I wanted. I guess what he is trying to say, is that I got that twilight swag. Lol. I told him the stories about both Shadi getting that girl and about the kolby situation. He thought kolby was being immature about it and that he thought it would blow over in the end. He also mentioned something to me about wanting to start his own company when he gets the funds, similar to a snow cone shop but with better ice. He also told me he hates water... Lol. So random.
At about 430 I asked Lindsey if she had any work for me and she didn't so I just chilled and texted on my phone. I'm pretty sure I'm going to start a 9-6 shift because that should be easy once I get my own pad.
In other news, Kara actually responded to my message on her wall (I put that it was nice meeting her) and said she enjoyed meeting me too and that we need to get together and talk about the test thing she is studying for and also asked where I lived. This all sounds good and dandy, just for the fact that my friend kolby likes her even though she friend zoned him and I'm kind of stuck now on what to do, moreso now than before because kolby is pissed at me for supposedly "going after her." Ill explain more about this later when I get a minute.
I worked shoulders out at the gym and we had a mini-scare because stacey's little, Victoria, was missing and her dad filed a police report. Apparently the police called Stacey asking where she was... That's random. Her car had been at the tri delt house since 3pm. Apparently what had happened, was that Victoria had lied to her parents and told them she was hanging out with Stacey but I guess a family member has asked Stacey where she was and Stacey said she hadn't talked to her all day. Lol wow.

1/30 today is my first day of work. I have to be awake at 6 am in the freaking morning just to make sure I make it there by 8am. I have no idea how bad traffic is going to be, I just know bedford is at least alot closer than driving to dallas every morning like I was with my WFG job in uptown. I dress in my nicest clothes, I decide to rock out the graphite gray pants and a blue shirt with a black sweater pullover. I really don't know what to expect, I just know I hate waking up when it is still dark outside. Luckily, for me, I took some iChill and passed the crap out around midnight. When I hit traffic on the way there, I have a mini-panic attack (I cannot be late for the first day of work!) but I still manage to make it on time for work (5 minutes early!). I get lost in the wells fargo building, trying to find the training facility that I am supposed to be in. Apparently, wells fargo has 2. So I walked around until someone told me that the training facility was in another area and that person showed me where it was. When I walked into the classroom, I noticed only 4 other people there... 3 of which were black. Now I'm not racist or anything, it was just kind of amazing because I was literally a minority there. And I'm not talking just that room... I'm talking all across the floor. Everyone is black. Just unexpected. There is also no hot girls there on the floor and apparently everyone there (including my team) has underwriting experience of some kind. This might be tough.
Apparently, I also came unprepared. But again, that isn't my fault either because I wasn't put in a position to be prepared. Everyone was apparently under the impression they had to bring their SSN. Well I never got that memo and thought I left it at home (it was in the car the whole time). Also, apparently they didn't even have my offer letter for how much I made an hour and a yearly salary. Wow wells fargo, you guys need to get on the ball asap. So the first 3 hours of my shift, I basically sat in the training facility and texted people. Literally. They had us sit in there while they tried to get all the paperwork input in correctly. THis took literally forever. Which was cool i guess, just boring. Finally, around 11, after paperwork was filled (I barely filled out anything because I didn't have my ssn) they had us walk out and sit with a girl for an hour or two and kind of spectate what a underwriter does.
I sat with an underwriter named cathy (i think?). I could immediately tell by looking at the awards on her wall that she was a hardcore goodie-two shoes.. Than I got to thinking, there is one or two of those people in literally every company I have ever worked for. She was hardcore wells fargo... Literally by the book about everything.. I mean it's cool if you get your shit done, but she was kind of smug about it, like, "hey i deserve recognition because I do everything.." kind of person. Kind of rubbed me the wrong way. She was very knowledgeable on what she was doing though. I was completely lost almost the entire time as she navigated through the DOS screens that looked like FBSI from Fidelity. I have another teammate on my team (I'm pretty sure is gay because he has a high voice, among other things) who I also thought was an overachiever until he got caught texting blatantly by one of the workers there. Hahah.
The day flew by pretty quick. I went to a 1 hr lunch at schlotskies, than when I got back we had a huge meeting with everyone on the floor. Yeah, there are no hot girls. I checked. Literally. Every nook and cranny. And. There. Is. NOTHING. But whatever I guess. We all went around the room and everyone introduced themselves and gave the name of a food that best represents them. I got up and told everyone that I love long walks on the beach. Everyone started laughing. I told everyone that if I was a food, I'd be mac and cheese, because I go good with everything... Everyone cracked up again. I'm good.. I know.
After I said that, the girl next to me half hugged me and said I have swag... too bad she was 9 times my size.
Oh yeah, some black girl in my class told me I have "that edward cullen twilight swag." That's a first, lol.
Swaggerific. Also I need to mention that my manager is flipping super hot. And she's my age. A little blondie with a nice body. Nuff said.
The rest of the day they sat me and the "gay guy" with some other underwriter person for the rest of the day.
The place is pretty cool. There is no schedule efficiency measured at all, and I got to go to the bathroom whenever i wanted too. I also got to go to lunch really whenever I wanted too too. Pretty sweet. Near the end of the day I had a meeting with my manager about "code of ethics". Nothing too excited here to mention. I think that sums up about everything I can remember from work today, if there is anything else I'll be sure to go mention it later.
After work, I went and worked out back around 9ish. This is pretty early for me but still pretty late in the evening. Yeah, the gym was still crowded to maximum capacity. There were like 20 people waiting to play a game. I worked out back hard and ended up jetting.
LASTLY, BEFORE I FORGET, SHADI HAS A HOT GIRL.. I'll explain later.. I'm tired. night

today today today
1/29 Today was my last day before work tomorrow. In fact, I have to wake up really early tomorrow so I'm going to make this short and sweet. I had freaking defensive driving all day today. it was like 6 hours long.. from 1-7. I took it at the same place I always take it at, and got another NEW instructor instead of the last one. There was 4 flipping people in my class. Seriously. 2 old guys and a 16 year old girl that sat on the same row I did. I almost fell asleep like 4 times during the movies part of it. The defensive driving itself wasn't too bad.. Just really long and boring. The instructor was going hardcore by the book, so we actually had to be there the full 6 hours. We only had 1 15 minute break and a 30 minute dinner break. I ended up talking to the 16 year old girl (not like that) most of the time in class, she was in class because she wrecked her car because she rear ended someone. Sucks for her. She is only 16 (turned 16 in august) and already has a wreck on her record. Anyway, her name was leigh ann posey, her mom was actually a middle school teacher at Aledo! Imagine that.
She ended up rolling out with me to chipotle to grab some grub. She seems like a really nice girl.. She apparently drinks and parties alot too (She's really into nirvana and grundge). We ended up coming back late because our lunch break wasn't long enough. After some more boring videos, we took the drivers safety test and I ended up making a 95.. (I missed the Rural accident question again like I do every year). I waved goodbye to both leigh ann and the instructor.. See you next year mr. instructor. lol.
After I defensive driving was over, I headed over to the grocery store and got some shopping done for tomorrow... I gotta wake up early tomorrow so BBL

updates oh my
1/21 So for the first time in a long while, I ended up not going out tonight... Sarah really wanted me to go out with her and meet up with her friends but I didn't have a wingman. Kolby, who was down to go originally, had called me but I had left my phone at home (which like, never happens) when I went to go work out so by the time I called him back it was too late.. He already had made plans. I ended up chilling at home, watching sweet home alabama on CMT, and just relaxing. The whole time, gina was blowing up my phone, asking to come over and spend the night. Seriously girl, I don't roll like that. I don't want an easy one night stand, and you leave in literally 2 weeks so I really don't want a hump and dump from you, I'm sorry. but yeah, she was texting me and calling me like nuts, I never answered any of them. Call it what it is, but yeah I don't roll like that.
1/22 Today I took ole meeks to the dog park. It was a beautiful day outside, and I knew I had to get my meeks out and about (and check out the wonderful women of tcu at the same time, lol.) Of course, when I got there, the place was PACKED. There was a ton of pretty women there, and I made a bee-line for the first "triad" of girls that were nearest the gate when I walked meeka and I in. I forgot all their names already, (one's name was cathy) but one of them was actually president of tri delta at TCU!!! Want to know why this is so good?!?!?! Because of ALLL the possible networking capababilities. I mean, not only was this chick really funny and cool, but she is prez. Which means whenever they have a party, or a social event or something, I might find a possible route to go (thru them of course) and meet even more girls. This was seriously the link I needed. Apparently all 3 live together (the other 2 were kappa kappa gammas). One of the 3, a blondie, was super hot.. But also super taken, unfortunately. So I did most of the talking to the blonde girl and the prez.. I let them know that I had just recently moved to the area, and I didn't know where anything was (this helps put me in a good spot because it will look to them like I am just networking, which is totally what I am doing.). halfway through talking ot them, I knew I needed to get their numbers, especially the tri delt prez. So I went in froom networking perspective and said, "hey, next time you guys are out you should totally hit me up.. I literally know like 10 people here." And boom goes the dynamite. I got the 3rd non-taken roommate's number, and the tri delt prez's number. Like I said, above all else, they were actually cool to talk too and hang out with. I can totally see why the prez became the prez.. She is really funny and has a really outgoing personality.. So we shall see where this takes us! UP IS THE ONLY DIRECTION WOOT!
1/22 Today I took ole meeks to the dog park. It was a beautiful day outside, and I knew I had to get my meeks out and about (and check out the wonderful women of tcu at the same time, lol.) Of course, when I got there, the place was PACKED. There was a ton of pretty women there, and I made a bee-line for the first "triad" of girls that were nearest the gate when I walked meeka and I in. I forgot all their names already, (one's name was cathy) but one of them was actually president of tri delta at TCU!!! Want to know why this is so good?!?!?! Because of ALLL the possible networking capababilities. I mean, not only was this chick really funny and cool, but she is prez. Which means whenever they have a party, or a social event or something, I might find a possible route to go (thru them of course) and meet even more girls. This was seriously the link I needed. Apparently all 3 live together (the other 2 were kappa kappa gammas). One of the 3, a blondie, was super hot.. But also super taken, unfortunately. So I did most of the talking to the blonde girl and the prez..

eventful?
1/19 oh, what an eventful day.. Where do I start? How about that I got a BS speeding ticket yesterday, and I have to go do defensive driving.. which freaking sucks crap. So today, I went down to wells fargo to go get a money order because apparently, the only way to pay for this stupid ticket thing is either a money line or a money order... freaking stupid. When I got in there and talked to the notorizer, she recommended I call them first before I get it done so guess what I get to do tomorrow!
After all that crap happened, I went and got my haircut.. My old nemesis Socorro cut my hair.. The reason I call her my nemesis is because I am pretty sure this woman had it out for me forever. I remember back in the day she would skip over me even though my name was on the list, among other things.. And I never knew why, either. Today there was practically no one in so I didn't really have anyone to choose from so I just had her cut it for me.. and let me tell you, there is a language barrier. I know she is spanish and all, but she had no idea half the stuff I was saying, I am pretty sure. Lol. I told her to point cut my bangs, and she somehow interpreted that I meant I wanted a point for my bangs. Yeah. I have no freaking idea how or where she got that from. Luckily, it was easily fixable. I literally almost LOLED when she actually cut my hair into a point. And seriously, it's the worst feeling in the world when halfway through the haircut, you start thinking about the language barrier that is between the customer and the haircut-ress. Seriously. I literally had a mini-panic attack because I was like wtf, my hair is going to get demolished. Lucky for me though, she corrected it and everything was good to go. Another thing about socorro, she always finishes my haircut in like 20 minutes flat, almost like we are at the daytona 500 or something and she's the pit crew. That kind of scares me, because it makes me feel like she did an half assed job. Either way though, she seemed in really good spirits today and after doing my hair it looks fine, so we are good.
After I left the haircut place, I went home and chilled for a bit before I decided to get dressed up in my blazer and head to downtown fort worth to meet up with kolby. We started the night off at library, and unfortunately for us, no one wanted to go out. We walked around the entire bar and we really didn't see anything worth talking too, we even went upstairs to scope out the joint and there was literally nothing in there to look at. dudes as far as the eye can see. We ended up going outside, and gave it literally 10 minutes to pick up or we were going to leave.. Just then, we ran into ole MEGAN Seacrest.. She was apparently here with half of her sorority! she went out to smoke or something on the patio, and she came out with a girl named kate, who was actually really really hot. I was definitely impressed. She worked at twin peaks and she looked real tasty. Anyway, Kate smoked, and we didn't have a lighter, so she ran off to find someone that did while megan and kolby and i talked. It was nice. I like megan, just not in that way.. And i'm pretty sure she is freaking obsessed with me. Yeah, I said it. She comes on so strong onto me all the time, it's like chill bro! It's all good! everything will be fine. that isn't in her vocabulary though.
Anyway, after some talking, Megan straight up blurts out to kolby, "you should go after my friend, she will definitely 'get down'". I'm pretty sure this is code word that she is a huge whore. She looks good, but still, she is a whore. And that's gross. Who knows how many guys have steamrolled that. According to megan, she's the slut of the sorority and gets down with everyone and that kolby should make a play. Megan then informed us of how great of a wingwoman she was, and she actually really tried to help my boy kolby out with her! Unfortunately, it was too little too late because captain grey shirt was all over her. While all this was going on, I ran into Micah and his new girlfriend.... Ready for this.. MIRELLE. Old mirelle from uta.. Aka the girl that wanted my balls for like 3 years but never got served them, lol. She really doesn't look all that good face to face, maybe I didn't make that big of a mistake at all. Anyway, I talked to micah and his bro shawn for a bit, when out of the blue, Courtney Mahaffey shows up! It was like a Hollister family reunion. Courtney looks really good, but she has a flipping kid.. That's gross.
Anyway, apparently mahaffey knew the "town slut" kate and they were supposedly BFF4L so they were talking for awhile. Kolby went in to get a drink and left me out there with Kate (barfing megan left as well). I started to spit some game at ole kate and sure nuff, stupid megan comes out and cockblocks the hell out of me, even though I wasn't even really pursuing her. Freaking ridiculous if I do say so myself. But it's whatever. Kate and her both end up going inside, but before she goes inside she says to me, "That's what you get for crossing me.." Than flips me the bird. Yeah, I am pretty sure this girl is maddingly crazy.. Or just semi-retarded.. or both.
After a bit, Kolby came out and I was ready to go at that time. Megan came back out onto the patio and I explained to kolby how bad megan had cockblocked me for no apparent reason whatsoever. I guess this got her upset or something and she went back inside and hung out with her Ate a Pie sorority friends.. I told Kolby we should just go, it was already after 1, and I really wanted to go to Capital bar and hit up 7th. We took one last glance thru around library, even ran into Summer (Yeah I seem to always flipping see her nowadays) and we ended up jetting for capital.
When I got maybe 5 blocks from montgomery plaza, we discovered that kolby forgot to close his tab out at library so we had to turn around. I drove back to the garage and parked, and we headed towards library again for the second time. Kolby was already pretty smashed at this time, he even jumped on the little "your ride must be 7 feet or shorter to enter" sign in the parking garage and swung on it like a monkey. Kid is crazy, I tell you. Anyway, we managed to make it all the way back to library, he closed his tab out, and I was just contemplating us going home when I suddenly got a text from Megan saying they were going to Cafe Brazil with all the other girls. Kolby and I were for sure down.
So it took some time to figure out where cafe brazil was. apparently, it is by tcu, but i had never been there before. when i got there, i quickly discovered there was little to no parking, anywhere. there were open meters everywhere, but i typically have no change. i must've driven around cafe brazil on berry street at least 10 times, before i went down the street beside it and kolby and i noticed 2 hot girls walking towards the parking garage. kolby quickly rolled down his window, and started yelling over to them. at this time, i figured it was a lost cause.... i mean, we don't even know these girls, they are drunk and don't know us, i can't really see this going well at all, but it's whatever. i end up pulling into the garage in front of the 2 girls and kolby starts talking to them.
they end up wanting a ride to the 4th floor of their place. being the nice gentleman that i am, i offer them a ride and they actually hop in! i was surprised, but happily surprised. To enter the gate, you need a little keypad clicker thing, which they had, so the whole time I just assumed we were going to head up to their house for a bit and hang out.. When I pulled to the 2nd floor, I noticed that the only way to get through the exit was that you needed that same clicker thing and I quickly uncovered the fact that they just wanted a ride, nothing else... SO we ended up dropping them off at the second floor elevator because they wanted out. But by this time, I was already at the exit gate now and realizing the gate wouldn't open. Cue my mini-panic attack. I started freaking out, because it was already way after 2, and I had no idea if anyone else would be going through the exit anytime soon. Kolby is laughing his ass off, while I'm just really in shock mode. Lucky for us, there just happened to be a car leaving, so I quickly followed the car out and managed to get myself to safety. Lucky me.
Kolby and I ended up parking at one of the meters, and I managed to find a few quarters that I threw into the little toll meter thing to get us about 30 minutes of time. I wasn't planning on staying long, and now we had an excuse to leave whenever because we only had 30 minutes of time alotted. Little did I know what I was getting into.
When kolby and I get inside, we see that the group had already ordered food and were chowing down. All the girls I had met earlier in the night were there, including some other girls that I hadn't had the opportunity to meet just yet. Before we could even sit down, Megan starts gagging and looks like she is about to hurl. I never realized how hammered she was. Yummy. Her red haired friend (probably the nicest girl at the entire table, that I would come to find out) walked her to the bathroom where she puked her brains out. In the meantime, we were entertaining the "guests".
So starting off, I was always good at selling myself, so I was trying really hard to sound personable, get to know everyone at the table, and so on. Little did I know how rude these girls were. After some small talk at the beginning, it started to get heated almost immediately. But, it turned heated in a good way. The girl next to me, who apparently has a boyfriend from north carolina, was super smashed and was playing with her food.. Literally. Like she was making a super duper huge mess. she was taking all the chips on her plate and crushing them into a million pieces, and spreading them all over her plate. Like really? I mean how old are you? That was cool when we were like in 6th grade, but cmon now. So naturally, I started calling her "crumbs" and giving her a hard time about it. The girl on my far left ended up not only bumping her head on the wall behind her, but spilling her drink all over the table. I dubbed her, "spills." The other girls at the table didn't mean really anything to me, except kate, who I was still putting in work with. i must say though, she ordered 2 meals for herself. That's flipping crazy.
After needling both of them, it started to get kind of heated in a funny way. I couldn't stop laughing at how immature these girls were, and how lame they were when it came to insults. They had nothing really good, and Kolby and I kept needling them about everything. "Can someone spill a drink all over the table again? thanks." or, "Does anyone have some crushed potato chips I could borrow? Oh there we go." stuff like that. It ended up being really funny. Even kolby was having a good time, and he was throwing back insults at them like it was no one's business. At this same time, I found out that the meters were FREE after 2pm, so I wouldn't even of have to pay the change that I did. Well, that's good to know. I also found out from kate that megan's boyfriend was a virgin, and kate straight up told me she is a whore and can't wait more than 2 weeks without sex. She also said she doesn't believe in relationships at all... Sounds like a true Slore to me. lol.
Around this time, megan ends up actually leaving and going home with the redhead girl who drove. I call her barfing megan now because that's all she is good for, apparently. Crumbs wanted me to drive her ass home, but I quickly quipped, "Sorry I didn't drive.. I rode a bike here. literally, a 2 seater bike with kolby." That got her off my back. Drunk people believe everything.
After a while, everyone got up to go and pay their tab. I apologized to the waittress for the mess they made. It seriously looked like a atom bomb had just been dropped on the table, lol. Food and crumbs were literally everywhere. After all that happened, we ended up walking out and going our separate ways. The whole time Kolby and I could not stop laughing at how stupid they were. What a great night.
After all that crap happened, I went and got my haircut.. My old nemesis Socorro cut my hair.. The reason I call her my nemesis is because I am pretty sure this woman had it out for me forever.
