Friend Date, Road Trip, Chinese, etc.

So two days ago I talked to an old friend. A really good friend from the past. After life taking us on our different paths we were able to reconnect. We arranged to go out to a movie. Which later turned into 'Dinner and a Movie,' which is apparently a date according to my brother. Well, anyway my date planned a night of good food, good drinks, and a good movie. Long story short.. he did all of this planning only to end up going in to work on our date night. Ugh..

So with that I opted to go on a road trip. Or what felt like a freakin road trip. I took my beloved cousin to visit another family member. In the process we had a chance to bond. Although we were close, his teenage years (teenage attitude) had wedged some distance between us. That is the only good that I got out of the trip. Other than that it was horrible. There was traffic, my car overheated; and did I mention that the drive was hella long?! Sigh. On the way back my "date" proceeded to text me while he was at "work," feeling bad for cancelling on me I suppose. Asking questions like "what did you end up doing?" and furthermore placing himself in my future plans. LOL. These guys are so funny. I am really glad that we made up. I missed his crazy self.

Of course my parents are not expecting me to come home. They go out and get dinner. Steaks. I know that sounds good to most of you but I am not a steak eater. Not at all. Sigh, again. Just when I get back to the house I have to go back out. All the while texting my friend date guy.. Which is something I do not want to get used to, but thats for a later blog. I go out for food and to my dismay just about everything is closed. The perks of living in a small town. Chinese is my only option. But not the good Chinese food, no. Panda Express. Chinese fast food. And to add to that my fortune cookie fortune sucked!

Sidebar: I recently saw a magazine poll that asked a vital question. Do you prefer to be wanted or needed? After some thought I have come to the conclusion that I definitely prefer to be wanted. I don't like for people to need me or depend on me. That makes me feel used. We are all adults here. We should be able to take care of ourselves, right?! Reminds me of what Steve Harvey said about people using him. "What would you do if I wasn't here? Well, do that then." Hahahahaha (much funnier in context). I have got to remember to use that line.

With all that said, I must say, today was a good day!




Put your eye on the peephole and take a glance at my life... Unscripted . Unedited . Unreal .
