4. Dating with no attachments - So tried to step out of the box and give my number to a gentlemen I met........smh.......He hit me the very next day but conversation went south when he referred to me as a "Sweet Tendoroni" and then when I asked if he were involved he stated that I would be his next "Boo"............................................................................................ 39 yrs old :-/

How about them Ravens......

So I had a blast this weekend!!!  Friday of course was in the bed early - had my final CASA Training Class Saturday and already have my first case!  Saturday I headed to the basketball game in which I had a wonderful time with my Soror's and then Sunday was the most exciting - my first Super Bowl Party!!  The party was out at this Lakefront property, was just happy to be out enjoying myself......  I exchanged numbers with someone new and even talked of dating someone old.  S was at the game, we took a really nice picture together......looked so happy.....but I had talked about seeing him twice in which he was too busy and reminded me of how unhappy I am.  He made the comment that we should put the picture on our fireplace...................................................................................why oh why does he continue to make comments like that yet say he's not ready for a relationship??

Anyway, something old is really sweet, we'll call him G.....but I just want to take things really slow.  We've been friends for quite some time now and we all know that once that line is crossed there's no turning back.  L will be here in a couple weeks for All Star!!!  Sooooo looking forward to that fun as well..........................

In other news: I've gotten my paperwork (application) together for the PhD Program *nervous*.  I still have to take the GRE and pay the $50 for the app fee.  IRS is not processing refunds of those with Education Credits until Mid February, meaning I can expect my refund sometime early March :-/  Praying that it all works out because application is due March 1.

I hope you had a wonderful time this weekend.  The game was hilarious when the lights went out lol but I really enjoyed Beyonce's performance :-)  Not a Bey Bee but she and the other members did their thing!

What a Weekend......

So actually it wasn't that my weekend was just so immaculate....was more so the fact that I was able to just get away!  I arrived in time to party with my sis Rami at Club Zouk!!!  Saw some past friends from school and a love interest that I've been friends with for quite some time.  Stayed at the Sheraton, beautiful, had never had a room where you have to use your key to access your floor ;-)  Breakfast served on the top floor....was just all around nice.  Now the game on the other hand....smh  1. It seemed as though Fall just skipped Dallas and that Jack Frost decided to tag along with us.  2. We, as in my Alma Mater, LOST!  Ugh.....  Besides that had a great trip.  My cousins tagged along with my children and besides freezing our tails off and then getting lost on the way back to the car (in which we had to walk around the entire fair grounds to get back to our lot) we had a blast!  I didn't get out on Saturday....had every intention to but after the cold I ended up in the bed by 10pm smh  Got some good sleep though lol

Next up - HOMECOMING!!  I love visiting Louisiana and this will definitely be a blast :-)
