The Weekend Wrap Up

let me break it down for you.

Friday. leave school and come back around 545 for Family Fun Night. Tons of indoor activities and food. I was the sole cashier for food where the most expensive item was $1.00. I don't want to count money anymore!!
leave there around 9pm. Go home to defrost from hotdogs, popcorn and limbo; call drew and tell him i'm tired. he says i don't have to drive down tonight but the tone in his voice said otherwise. that's when i changed my spacebook status to 'love = sacrifice'. i crawled out of bed, packed a bag and drove to hollywood. mind you, i've been up since 630am and its now 11pm. lane closures on I-95. gotta love that ish. i make it there and hit the bed. oh but wait, there are no sheets on the bed! DAMNIT DREW! Fcuk that shit, I used the comforter as a sleeping bag and fade to black. then here he comes... with sushi! ok, i'm not mad anymore! eat and go back to sleep.

saturday. he's playing at merr.ick park again. i take pics of them during their 4 hr gig during the hottest part of the day (2-6pm) it seemed. then i made the mistake of getting an aerial shot of them and "falling" into be/be where I spend too much money on 4 shirts. the minute i signed the slip, my feet turned to lead. i trudged out with receipt in hand, str-8 dumbfounded. harry dred already knew the deal and said, "you spent too much money didn't you?" it was written all over my face! dreezy tried to be supportive and say, "you earned it! when do you ever go all out and buy whatever you want? that's your tutoring money right there!" sheeeeet, that's like 3x my tutoring money... i always buy what i want and that's the problem! i justify it with, "i ain't got no kids or major bills, so why not?" but that mini spree hurt my heart.

saturday, we pack up and leave merr.park. we're to meet at harry's house at 10pm so we can road trip to orlando for a show. 1248am, we finally leave! make it to o-town at 430am and hit the telly on i-drive. i have no idea what we're doing, i just came for the (come to find out, uncomfortable) ride. i'm lying. i'm "on staff" as the photo/videographer.

sunday. haitian flag fest!

we're at eola park and i was just hoping i'd bump into a haitian chick with box braids who lives in orlando named desy. maybe she was there, idk was busy taking pics and didn't have her # to set up a play date.

whatever the case, the event was nice! the most fun i've had at a haitian event cause for real, kompa.s fest was NOT getting it, nor were the lil gigs ma/wo.n has played at... no offense to any haitian reading this. y'all actually remind me of ghanians. way too aggressive over the little things.

anyhoo,
we leave there and try to find a place to eat. a place that devout vegetarians, lacto-ovo veggies, and 'only fish' veggies eat. lena, ralph and i were the meat eaters who could eat anywhere whereas the 'tarians were being mum abt where to eat! ralph said, "i will eat some griol (sp?) and not feel bad right now, speak up!" i picked an italian rest and told the vegans to eat some 3 cheese tortellini and holla back. i was hungry, hot and tired and they were perking. we order, eat on the road and make it back to s. florida at 1230. back to drew's where we hit the sheets only to be woken up by an alarm at 545am, seeing how i have to drive an hour to get back home and get ready for work. you already know today was a movie day. that was the plan. i saved it for the last 30 min of the day. even when i'm dead tired, i can't try my students' lives with a movie! we have addition and subtraction to master! books to read! kindergarten to conquer!! ha HA!

will post pics when i find my cord!
