I sincerely apologize--life is hard working a job where you travel daily. I still love my job though.
Last week was bad! I hurt myself two weeks ago exercising. I strained the muscle in my back. I didn't know what was wrong so I walked around with a hurt back for a week. I thought it would go away but it didn't. I finally decided to go to the me.dstop and get checked. I was so afraid the doctor was going to tell me my kidney was failing or something but she said it was a muscle strain. It was great to have a diagnosis but the pain was awful. It actually still hurts somewhat but it feels much better than before. Well since I was in pain last week I didn't do a lot of work (going to hate my paycheck with that week on it). Oh well.
Anyhoo my weekend started off great and then became an epic fail. Friday night I went out to dinner to celebrate a friend's birthday. The company was nice and the service was horrible. After the dinner we drove back to my friend's house it would seemed like a monsoon. It was awful but I knew that meant I would sleep well (at least I thought I would). I got in the bed and was harassed via BBm by a frog. He told me that I was playing games with him and blah blah blah. My dingy behind argued with him for about an hour and a half. Eventually I just told him that he was interrupting my drug induced sleep (good drugs for a muscle strain). Early the next morning I saw part time boo and then went back to sleep. The only reason why I saw him so early was because he was leaving to go to his hometown and I wouldn't get a chance to see him until the middle of September.
After I woke up I went to the spa to get a massage--the best thing ever! I am still thinking about that massage. After the massage I went back to sleep and then ran errands. I went to see my dad to pick up a part for the car. I got back to my resting place around 10 and went to bed. I slept until 9 the next morning. I woke up and went to church. Got a great word--Live for the future was the basic premise. Today may not be great but you know God has so much in store for you. Know that your future is bright and speak of it.
After church we went to IH.OP and then I slept. I got up and got ready to go. I should have left then b/c it got bad. I ended up going to a bbq but didn't eat b/c I saw the food prep going down--ewwwwww! We ended up going to a restaurant and the waitress got my order wrong. I got a little extra but it so wasn't worth the long wait. I got back from the restaurant and get ready to leave. I go aside and my front tire is flat. So I was ready to change the tire myself and then I couldn't find the jack. Let's figure out if the insurance has roadside assistance--it doesn't. My friend is going to call hers but I have decided that it is too late and dark for me to leave. Male "friend" comes over and is wishy washy about changing the tire. I still can't find the jack. They dip. 30 seconds after they dip I find the jack. They won't turn around b/c they are on their way to another bbq. No longer male friends. Complete stranger from original bbq comes over to change flat tire. Very nice and gentlemanly--his mother raised him right! I get in the bed and go to sleep around 11:30. Must drive back home in the morning! I make it home safely but the spare is going flat :-(
Yeah that was my weekend. After that my life has been pretty boring. I wish I had more for you but I don't.

Update
I know it has been so long since I blogged but I have been busy and when I am not busy I am sleepy/tired. I just wanted to update you guys on my life.
It is official that I spread myself to thin. Last week I was all over the place. I picked up two new activities--cheerleading coach/helper and creative writing with a neighborhood after school program.
Last week my back was aching really bad (actually it is still bad) and I didn't know what was going on. I finally went to the doctor yesterday and she diagnosed me as having a strained muscle. I was so thankful b/c I really thought it may have been kidney issues. I couldn't deal with that especially since I don't have insura.nce. The meds have made me extremely sleepy. I actually took a nap earlier today and could go to sleep right now.
My love life is pretty nonexistent. Part time is still around and he has been quite a sweetie lately. The crush isn't really trying to deal with me b/c my friend told him not to mess with me unless he was serious. I am happy that my friend was looking out for my best interests. Others probably would have just let it go.
The job is going well. Just a lot of leg work.
I keep forgetting to pay my bills. Every since I started my job I completely forget. I started writing it down but I still forget.
Ok that is all I have but when I come back I want to talk about the creative writing that I am helping with.

Anger Management
I got the best laugh from this--I hope you do too!
When you occasionally have a really bad day,
and you just need to take it out on someone,
don't take it out on someone you know,
take it out on someone you don't know,
but you know deserves it.
I was sitting at my desk when I remembered
a phone call I'd forgotten to make.
I found the number and dialed it..
A man answered, saying
'Hello.'
I politely said,
'This is Chris.
Could I please speak with Robyn Carter?'
Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear
'Get the right f***ing number!'
and the phone was slammed down on me.
I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude.
When I tracked down Robyn 's correct number to call her,
I found that I had accidentally transposed the last two digits.
After hanging up with her,
I decided to call the 'wrong' number again.
When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled
'You're an asshole!'
and hung up.
I wrote his number down with the word 'asshole' next to it,
and put it in my desk drawer.
Every couple of weeks,
when I was paying bills or had a really bad day,
I'd call him up and yell,
'You're an asshole!'
It always cheered me up.
When Caller ID was introduced,
I thought my therapeutic 'asshole'
calling would have to stop.
So, I called his number and said,
'Hi, this is John Smith from the telephone company.
I'm calling to see if you're familiar with our Caller ID Program?'
He yelled
'NO!'
and slammed down the phone.
I quickly called him back and said,
'That's because you're an asshole!'
and hung up.
One day I was at the store,
getting ready to pull into a parking Spot.
Some guy in a black BMW
cut me off and pulled into the spot I had patiently waited for.
I hit the horn and yelled that I'd been waiting for that spot,
but the idiot ignored me.
I noticed a 'For Sale' sign in his back window,
so I wrote down his number.
A couple of days later,
right after calling the first asshole
(I had his number on speed dial),
I thought that I'd better call the BMW asshole, too.
I said,
'Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?'
He said,
'Yes, it is.'
I then asked,
'Can you tell me where I can see it?'
He said,
'Yes, I live at 34 Oaktree Blvd , in Fairfax ..
It's a yellow ranch style house and the car's parked right out in front.'
I asked,
'What's your name?'
He said,
'My name is Don Hansen,'
I asked,
'When's a good time to catch you, Don?'
He said,
'I'm home every evening after five.'
I said,
'Listen, Don, can I tell you something?'
He said,
'Yes?'
I said,
'Don, you're an asshole!'
Then I hung up,
and added his number to my speed dial, too.
Now, when I had a problem,
I had two assholes to call.
Then I came up with an idea...
I called asshole #1.
He said,
'Hello.'
I said,
'You're an asshole!'
(But I didn't hang up.)
He asked,
'Are you still there?'
I said,
'Yeah!'
He screamed,
'Stop calling me,'
I said,
'Make me,'
He asked,
'Who are you?'
I said,
'My name is Don Hansen.'
He said,
'Yeah? Where do you live?'
I said,
'Asshole, I live at 34 Oaktree Blvd , in Fairfax ,
a yellow ranch style home and
I have a black Beamer parked in front.'
He said,
'I'm coming over right now, Don.
And you had better start saying your prayers.'
I said,
'Yeah, like I'm really scared, asshole,'
and hung up.
Then I called Asshole #2.
He said,
'Hello?'
I said,
'Hello, asshole,'
He yelled,
'If I ever find out who you are...'
I said,
'You'll what?'
He exclaimed,
'I'll kick your ass,'
I answered,
'Well, asshole, here's your chance.
I'm coming over right now.'
Then I hung up and immediately called the police,
saying that I lived at 34 Oaktree Blvd, in Fairfax ,
and that I was on my way over there to kill my gay lover.
Then I called Channel 7 News
about the gang war going down in Oaktree Blvd in Fairfax ..
I quickly got into my car and headed over to Fairfax ..
I got there just in time to watch two assholes
beating the crap out of each other
in front of six cop cars, an overhead news helicopter
and surrounded by a news crew..
NOW I feel much better.

I've Missed You Guys
It has been so long and so much has happened but I don't remember it b/c I am always so tired. Working is for the birds. I am happily paying my bills every month so that gets me through. I am going to do better. I am going to make it my business to post at least 2 times a week and this counts as 1 this week.
I will try to remember to write stuff down so I can tell you all about it.
Smooches,
Coco, Esq.

Randoms of Coco
Yeah I have been gone long but I had to come back--I have missed my lovelies!
I have been a bad girl! I am going to leave it at that. I really like the crush! He puts a smile on my face. Got your girl humming.
Mr. Girlfriend in the background called me back as I expected. I was just talking to him and then I realized who I was talking to. I took his phone number out of my phone so he caught me off guard. He invited me to some party that I am sure I will not be attending.
I bought the fiercest shoes the other day when I was supposed to be working. I actually was working but I took my 15 minute break a little early. I meant to take a picture so you could see them but that didn't happen.
So the other day it was confirmed that my lying ex best friend has two babies. I am beginning to think that is the real reason why she disappeared. She found out she was pregnant and couldn't come up with a lie to cover it up.
Since I started working nothing exciting is going on in my life which means I can't really entertain you guys :-(
That is all I have!

They Made Me Do It
So I wasn't going to blog but men made me do it. Can I just say that there are a lot of men out there who ain't isht and I experienced more than my fair share in the past 3 days. I decided to give up on my dream team b/c I was just setting myself up to be pissed and then the isht hits the fan. Mind you none of these men are on the dream team so at least that makes me feel better. Ok I will stop rambling and tell the stories.
Saturday night I went to a bbq. My friend wanted to play spades and I didn't want to. I know how to but I am risk averse so chances are we would lose and I hate to lose. Well 3 guys were playing with my friend. One of the guys got up and left with his girlfriend and another guy sat down to play. So we are all laughing and joking. The guy I was sitting next to was flirting with my girl and his partner was flirting with me. So eventually I ended up sitting next to the partner. We exchanged numbers/BB Pins. He was nice and relatively attractive. He was actually very nice, very pleasant personality. He said we should get together for lunch the next day and I was like cool if I am free. Sidebar: At some point during the game my friend's spade partner took it upon himself to have a conversation about my breasts. I was like whatever but what bothered me about that was that he was married. I mean I know men stare at body parts but please don't disrespect your marriage b/c of my breasts. What bothered me even more about him was it was his birthday and he wasn't with his wife and infant. He was concerned about my breasts. End of sidebar. Well anyhoo my friend eventually figured out that the guy who got my number was her fac.ebook friend. So of course on Sunday I did my fac.ebook detective work. Imagine my surprise when it said that he was engaged. You know engaged to be married. I just can't deal. And his friend who was flirting with my friend was engaged as well. I just can't deal. I will let that marinate!
So a couple of weeks ago I told you about the new youngin. I knew that wasn't going anywhere but I needed someone to go to the movies with me so he seemed like the perfect candidate. (I only have one friend in this area which is why I am always in Atlanta.) So I sent him a text telling him that he owed me a movie. Your boy said he needed to put me on some game. Ok whatever! He then calls me and was like yeah that movie won't be happening b/c I am in a relationship. Can I just say you could have sent that via text? So then his girlfriend starts talking in the background. Did you call me for her benefit? I didn't need to hear her or him for that matter. Then he tells me that I need to work on my approach to men. I was thinking to myself I just really needed someone to sit in the movie theatre with me so I could look over and say, "Did you see that?". It is not cute to talk to yourself in the movie theatre. I just can't deal.
I prefer to deal with men who are honest and let you know up front that they are afraid to commit. At least I know what I am about to embark on. I know it is going nowhere ever so I can play and go on about my business.
I just can't deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My nerves are bad!

My Sincerest Apologies
I disappeared and I haven't blogged in 15 days. I actually tried to blog last week but after I typed up the blog blogger ate it. I was too tired to do it again.
I started my new job. I like it but the pay is horrible. Definitely gives me an idea on what I want to do career wise.
Last week I blogged about a local tragedy. I still want to share the story so I guess I will. Two Fridays ago one of my mother's friends was killed along with her mother. They were allegedly stabbed to death by the mother's 54 year old niece. The mother had just turned 85 and the family had planned a big celebration. On the day of the celebration they had to bury her. What makes the tragedy so much worse was they were found by their grandson/great-grandson who also had found his mother dead (from an illness) about 5 years ago. It is still shocking and hard to comprehend. Please pray for the family.
I honestly have no words about Michael. Michael was my first concert. I went to the Thriller concert in Houston, TX. I actually remember him performing "Thriller". I still don't completely believe it but while they have been playing all his music I figured out what my favorite MJ song is. I love "Rock With You"! That song describes to me how I feel when I dance. I just want to say that Michael was the greatest entertainer. I refuse to speak anything bad about him. His issues were his issues and there is nothing we can do about it. Respect the man's genius.
I had a stupid girl moment last week. During my stupid girl moment I had some very supportive friends. Thank you guys! I will try not to do that ever again.
Also I opened up last week and I just didn't get the acknowledgement I expected it but it did make me see things in a different perspective. I appreciate the acknowledgement I received but I doubt that I will open up again. Thanks for the experience.
I have a friend who I love to death but I have determined that the feeling is not mutual. I serve a purpose in that person's life. The need for me is not often so this friend rarely communicates with me. I can call this friend and chances are I will get voice mail or I will call you sometime next week. Something finally clicked in my head and now I don't even call this person. I still love her but it is definitely from afar. It just proves the point that certain things change people.
I am going to kill Bridezilla. The $148 dress is now on sale for $59.99 and guess who can't get her money back b/c of the 30 day return policy.
Can I just say I am not surprised?!!!!! I gave the sideeye on day 1. I am shocked that it blew up so quickly but definitely not surprised that it happened.
That is all!
Smooches,
Coco

Let It All Out
I think I am getting tired of blogging.
So my good news that I didn't want to share until I knew I was absolutely sure is I have a job. It isn't in the legal field and I am cool with that. I actually have training next week so I will be away from my computer all day long. Pray that I can stay awake!
So part-time boo is all up under me (yes I said "all up under me"). I have heard from him almost every day of this week and part of last. He is just all over the place.
Crush is going to slowly drive me crazy. I actually saw him on Wednesday and we talked about our situations. He basically told me that he had commitment issues. I understand and I was walking in with my eyes wide open. So in my mind we were cool. Then I talked to him yesterday and I said I wanted to hang out. He then gave me the run around. So I called him on it and he told me that he didn't want to get attached to me. I cannot deal with him.
Last night I met a youngin. I don't know why the youngins flock to me. At least he is a presentable youngin. He is a cutie and he is quite intelligent. He is also from the Midwest and a gentleman. His only flaw is he worships Ko.be. I can let that go since probably the next time I see him the playoffs will be over.
I honestly feel like I don't fit in. Most people have friend groups by I find that I only truly enjoy one or two people in the group. It gets awkward for me. I think that is why I always invite all my friends to do stuff with me and none of them are alike. Oh well!
I need to get me together!
So my good news that I didn't want to share until I knew I was absolutely sure is I have a job. It isn't in the legal field and I am cool with that. I actually have training next week so I will be away from my computer all day long. Pray that I can stay awake!
So part-time boo is all up under me (yes I said "all up under me"). I have heard from him almost every day of this week and part of last. He is just all over the place.
Crush is going to slowly drive me crazy. I actually saw him on Wednesday and we talked about our situations. He basically told me that he had commitment issues. I understand and I was walking in with my eyes wide open. So in my mind we were cool. Then I talked to him yesterday and I said I wanted to hang out. He then gave me the run around. So I called him on it and he told me that he didn't want to get attached to me. I cannot deal with him.
Last night I met a youngin. I don't know why the youngins flock to me. At least he is a presentable youngin. He is a cutie and he is quite intelligent. He is also from the Midwest and a gentleman. His only flaw is he worships Ko.be. I can let that go since probably the next time I see him the playoffs will be over.

Randoms of Coco
Sorry I didn't give you a dose of my normal Thursday blog but I was all over the place.
Thursday I had the opportunity to meet my newest wish child! It was great! She wants to have a fancy sweet sixteen. I am so ready to plan and dress up.
I went to the new hair stylist. It was interesting and I am going to give her another try.
Part time keeps popping back up and I don't know what is going on.
My philosophy on men is: They are like little kids at Christmas. They love their new toy and play with it every day for a little while. When they grow tired of the every day play they play with it every once in awhile. Ladies we are that toy they got for Christmas. That is why until they make a commitment keep it moving. I mean a real commitment. I know men who don't feel truly committed until they say I do but I hope that is not the case in your relationship.
Why do you get that feeling when an ex crosses your mind? That feeling of anger or loss but you know that if he showed up today, free and clear, you would run in the other direction.
I am in a comfortable place right now. I can't explain it but I just am.
I finally got my dad's car and it works well. I am so happy to be able to come and go as I please.
Last Saturday I helped my friend move out of her apartment. That was pretty interesting.
Also last Saturday I went out to eat with one of my law school roommates. She is such a sweetie. She took me out to celebrate a few things including a late birthday dinner. We went to a restaurant that allegedly had a menu that only contained items under 475 calories. I refuse to believe that my meal was under 475 calories but it was great. I had crab stuffed shrimp. It was very well seasoned and very filling. Afterwards we did a little shopping. I exchanged the shoes my stepmom got me and bought some cute jeans from BR. I love that store.
I have no more. My life is so boring!

Another Angry Black Woman Moment
So I had another angry black woman moment. Actually it wasn't really an angry black woman it was just angry woman moment. Wanna hear it, here it goes:
Friday I had to drive to Atlanta and I knew I needed gas so I decided that I would stop at Krog.er's on my way to Atlanta. Well everybody else had the same idea. I drove up to the gas area and looked around to see what would be the easiest pump to get gas from. I saw one pump that had only one person at it. The woman had just pulled her car up to the pump after someone left. I had to drive up to the front of her car but I gave her enough room to go around me. She went to pay for her gas and then she began pumping. Let me just let you know I pulled up in front of her b/c unlike most cars B.MW puts their gas opening on the passenger side. There are some cars that have them on the passenger side but the average one is on the driver side.
So while the woman was pumping her gas this chick comes up behind her and then decides to pretend like she doesn't see me and goes to pay for her gas. That is when
I decide I am not letting that pass. I mentally decide that I sat there for all that time no one was going to get gas until I got gas. Normally I would have let it slide but who wants to get stuck in Atlanta traffic b/c someone took advantage of them? Well the lady finished pumping her gas and drove around me and the chick behind her pulled up. I pull up at the same time to ensure the pump doesn't reach her car. She then looks at me like I am crazy. I proceed to go off on her while sitting in my car. I make sure she knows that no one is getting gas until I get mine. She realizes that hey she just might be crazy and she decides it is in her best interest to move out of my way. You would think that would be the end of it but know this old white heffa decided she was going to do the same thing. That is when I lost it. If you are my fac.ebo.ok friend you now know where my whole "sense of entitlement" status comes from.
She pulls her vehicle up and tells me that she is getting gas. I make sure she cannot pull her car up far enough to pump. Then I am thinking to myself now if the last person didn't get gas do you really think you are. She gets out and tells me that she is getting gas and goes to pay for it. I sit in the car with it turned off to let her know she isn't getting gas from that particular pump. While attempting to pay for her gas she tells the attendant on me. Mind you I am sitting directly in front of the booth to pay for the gas so he saw me sitting there the whole time waiting patiently after the original lady paid for her gas. He looks at her like I can't do anything b/c she was there first. When she realizes he isn't going to do anything she walks up to my car to say something. I look at her like you must not know about me. She then tells me that she is going to get her gas. I tell her she won't be getting gas until I get mine b/c I was there before anyone else and that is how it works. She then tells me that everyone was facing the pump in the other direction. I proceed to tell her that my gas tank is on the passenger side and there is nothing I can do about that. She needs to talk to the manufacturer if she wants something done. She then realizes that the only way she was getting gas was to move out of my way. I meant it when I said that sense of entitlement isht stops with me on Friday. She was wrong and I wasn't going to let her get away with it.
I may have let her get the gas had she not told me that she was getting her gas and I basically needed to move out of her way. I could have dealt with it differently but I don't regret putting her in her place. It was obvious that I got there way before she did and the chick in front of her didn't get gas so there is no way she was if I had something to say about it. Maybe next time I will be nicer but she really tried me and I was fed up with the fact that certain people have a sense of entitlement.
