Every Waking Moment

This weekend was a little different then most weekends. No, their wasnt any alcohol, crazy hot parties, or naked chicks...so maybe it really wasnt that different, but subtle changes did occur.

For instance on friday nite i saw a movie which is rather traditional for Fri nite but afterwards was something different. I usually dont like to stay out late cuz i have work early the next morning. Some times i have no choice like if we are playing cards or if im at some1s house and i didnt drive. But typically i like to call it an early nite and catch up on my beauty sleep- God knows i need it. Well things were going as planned until the loveable but insensible James got the radical notion to go to the city at 12:30 at nite. Call me psychotic but i wasnt feelin that idea. If it were a Sat nite i'd certainly be gung ho but not when i gotta be up early it didnt seem prudent. So after a little bickering and bitching on my part (even threating to walk home) i got dropped off home. I'm sure their was talk about me being pus-say or whatever but its all flavor. I got a nice rest and i enjoyed every second of it. Later i found out that they didnt make it home until like 3 in the morning so i was pleased i made the rite choice.

Sat nite was a surprise birthday party for my cousin's husbands parents...translation- i dont know them. But i opted to go out of respect for the newly weds, however their was a twist. There is always a friggen twist. It was a fancy place so i hada wear a suit and as America knows, im a t-shirt and jeans type of guy. Any time i wear a suit i feel like a lawyer and we all know the world hates lawyers. So i envisioned it was gonna be a rough evening heading into it but i didnt know that this torture was going to last the whole nite. It was like Hell except not as hot and i didnt see Hitler, other than its exactly how i pictured it. Every1 wore a suit, their was a dj, a dance floor and no end in sight. It was a catered affair with little finger foods and 3 courses. Dont get me wrong the place was beautiful, and the food was great. It was located inside a gaited community, with lavish decor everywhere. But just being stuck in 1 place with loud music and no help in site isnt pleasent. Their are only so many times u can go to the bathroom without people thinking u have a problem. So i endured it all and finally walked in my house 10 after 12 with a splitting headache anda new appreciation for life.

Today i woke up late and got more of that much needed beauty sleep. Banged out some homework due tomorrow and watched the Jets get pumbled. Then i hada relive the torture of Sat nite by putting on the suit again and heading to a wake. My mom's aunt passed away a couple of days ago. So me and the fam went,  we said our condolences/paid our respects, and mingled as little as possible. 3 hrs later we were fianlly headed for the exists.
