I aint no gold digger!

First of all, I want you to scroll down to entry dated Tuesday October 28, 2008.
Read that and then come back to me.
Ready? Ok. So that same guy I spoke of had an appointment with us on the 9th. My coworker kept reminding me about it, b/c she was so excited b/c she thought that we would be so great together. I just kept saying "Ok, Danielle." So, he finally comes in and I pretend like I have no idea about what's about to go down. I left the office at 5:30 and my coworker tells me that now that I was leaving, she was going to talk to him, b/c she knew that I'd be all nosy trying to hear what she was saying. I played it off like I didn't care, but she was right, I would have tried to listen. LOL. So I go home and I'm waiting for her to text me or call me, but there was nothing. So, I did what I had to do for the night and figured she would tell me when I got to work in the AM. I get to work the next day and I'm just waiting for her to spring the news, but of course she was making me wait. Are you crazy? Really? I just wanted her to tell me! After about an hour, I say, "Ok, Danielle. I can't take it anymore!" She turns and gives me this cheesy smile b/c she knows exactly what I'm talking about. And it all went down like this:
First of all she tells me that he thought my name was Heather, that I didn't look like a Christina, I looked like a Heather. Um, really? If you are reading this, do I even remotely look like a Heather? No, I don't, thank you very much! And then he told her that he thought I was really cute, BUT what if I was gold digger? Danielle clearly stated that I was NOT a gold digger. (When she was telling me this, I kinda felt this weird enegry start to rise in me. I think that I really was just offended by what he said.) So then he proceeded to say that he didn't have time to be in a relationship. So Danielle said "Ok. So why can't you be friends? Why don't you go out for dinner or coffee or something?" And he says "Yeah, but what if she takes my money?" That right there just told me that his guy was not worth my time. I understand if you got burned in the past, but really, don't take it out on all of the other women in the universe. AND, my dear, I HAVE MY OWN MONEY TO SPEND! Sure, it would be nice if you pay for dinner every once in a while, or buy me flowers, or give me something sweet, but I CAN SPEND MY OWN MONEY! Ask anyone who has gone shopping with me! How you treat me is far better than what you can buy for me. You lost your chance!

Oh really???

The LOLs of LIFE

Yesterday, actually 2 days ago, was a good day for me. I hung out with friends and I always enjoy that. I was getting ready to watch some TV at by BFF's house, when I saw that my mom called and left me a VM and texted me-something about how she was stuck downtown and needed me to pick her AND her friend up. So I'm thinking something serious happened- did somebody smash up my mom's precious car, the car that I think she loves more than her children? (I am totally kidding about that.) So I call my mom and she tells me that she parallel parked downtown and she is parked so close to the curb that she is unable to move and that there's not enough room for her to move forward and pull out. My instant thought is "For real? Is this woman I call my mom crazy?" I ask her if she's being serious and she tells me yes. I ask her again and she still tells me yes. LOL. I beg her to call my little brother so I don't have to leave my friends, but that didn't work out, so I had to drive down there anyways. I get there and I see that there is a HUGE space between the car behind my mom and my mom's car. I asked her if she tried to back up and she said that she did, but was unsuccessful. I tell her to give me the keys and let me try. I warned her that I might scratch her hubcabs, but it was better than being stuck. I hop in the car and put it in reverse. I was only semi-successful. So, I put back into drive and start turning the wheel right to left, right to left. This helps. I put it back in reverse and turn the wheel again. Slowly but surely I'm getting out of the space. I put it back into drive and at this point, I'm inching away from the curb just enough to allow me to pull out. I get out and tell my mom "I'll see you at home!" But alas, her friend tells me to just pull all the way out so my mom doesn't get stuck again. So, I put the car in reverse again and make it so my mom can get out. At this point, my mom is almost in tears, b/c she thought she was going to have to leave her car there. She runs up and hugs me and tells me she doesn't know what she would do without me and thanks me so much for saving her car. I tell her you're welcome and that I need to teach her how to properly parallel park. LOL. It was a sight to see. I love my mom.
