NO PARKING!!!

So today I was running late for class and I parked in the motorcycle parking spot because it is really close to the front of the building. I don’t understand why just because you ride a motorcycle you get a up close parking spot. If it was like that everywhere I would surely get a bike. I am the lazy person that drives around parking lots for minutes after minutes just trying to find an up close parking spot because I am so lazy. I know that bad because I am young but it is true. The other day when I went to the mall I could have sworn it was the luckiest day of my life. The first isle in the parking lot that I went down the very first parking spot was available. I literally like jumped for joy. That was the first time that had ever happened to me. Another reason why I hate parking so far away though is because I always seem to lose my car when it is far away. I look like that lost puppy just strolling through the parking lot. Have you ever had a car that was identical to your car and you go up and try to get in it and it won’t unlock. You realize that it isn’t your car. HA I have done that multiple times.

HOUSE PARTAYYYYY

So this weekend I ended up attending a house party with one of my friends. I am only 19 so I am under the legal drinking age and Caitlin is 21. She is also going to be a cop so it is a complete no no to drink while I am with her because she cannot afford to get in trouble for distribution to minors. The party that we went to was in Greensboro but we were staying at Caitlin’s house in Winston. Of course, that left me as the DD driving an hour away in the pouring rain. I didn’t even know what kind of people were going to be there or even the person’s house we were at but I was just being a nice friend and tagging along. We got there and it was the most diverse group of people ever. There were so many gay girls and guys and then you had these gangster thug black guys… not that I am stereo typing or anything. I was in complete shock because it wasn’t what I expected. I ended up having a lot of fun though because all the people as different as they all were, were really nice. They had a keg, $5 a cup. Two team sized coolers filled with different types of PJ labeled “masturbating in the tanning bed” and “Becky” which I thought was hilarious not to mention the gummy bears that had been soaked in Vodka for 9 hours. It was a different but fun experience and I wouldn’t object to going back.

NOTHING LIKE HOME COOKING

On Saturday I went to the coolest place ever. I would have never even known that it existed if I were not invited by one of my friend’s brother. It was a country place called Hillbilly’s Hideaway. It was somewhere close to Winston Salem but it was out in the country. The food was amazing. They served you all you can eat of the most southern home style cooked meal. They brought potatoes, cream corn, green beans, baked apples, country ham, ribs, fried chicken, biscuits, etc. It was excellent. Although, it was not the food that made the experience so amazing, it was the atmosphere. It was out in the middle of no where with woods surrounding it and it looked like a run down log cabin. There was writing all over the walls with pictures of roosters and hens. As soon as I left I called my parents to tell them about it because I knew that they would enjoy a place like that. It was fifteen dollars a person which seems kind of expensive but it was well worth it.

POWER OF PRAYER

I have a friend of mine that has a friend who was in a car accident last night. They are both still in high school. They attend East Davidson High School. The guy that was in the accident is only a junior and he had traumatic head injuries. His brain was bleeding and they said that if it did not stop that they were going to have to do surgery. Fortunately, it stopped bleeding and surgery is not needed. He is in and out of consciousness. This is really sad. My friend said that at least seventy people were at the hospital last night as soon as they found out. That was just his closest friends from high school but he is a very well liked person by everyone. He is a star football player at their school and an all around good guy. I really hope he is going to be okay.

WHAT TO CALL HOME

I am 19 years old and I still live at home with my parents. Well I claim that I still live at home but I have not been home in two weeks because I stay with my friend in Winston every night. I hate to be alone and I love her company. She has an apartment to herself, granted her mom lives with her but her mom is no where near as nosey as mine and lets us be. So I have a lot more privacy there then I would if I was living at home. I really do miss my mom and my dad but they are just always jerks to me when I go home. I know they are upset that I never find time to see them but it is just also a lot more convenient for me to stay in Winston because I only work about three minutes down the street and when I get off of work I am ready to get home and relax.

ONE COUGH & BLOW

So I am sure that all of you want to hear about this. I am being completely sarcastic when I say that because most of you will find it disturbing but I personally think it is hilarious. I came into work today, a little late because I am late for everything and my boss said “Allison do I have a stain on my britches?” I looked and there was a big brown stain going down the crack of her pants. I know its gross but you just have to know my boss. She suffers from IBS and she is high strung all the time, she runs around like a chicken with its head cut off at times. Today she had just been running back and forth to the bathroom making all kinds of pitiful noises. They go a little something like this… “EHHHH”, “AHHHH”, “UHHH”. She had to leave early because with just one cough she was going to blow. This is not the first time that she has done this either. She is supposed to be calling me to let me know how it goes when she gets home because I might have to open in the morning if she can’t stay off the toilet.

BIGGEST PROMO OF THE YEAR!

The warm weather still has not come to a halt. Yesterday it was at least seventy some degrees outside. It was warm enough that I wore shorts and I was still sweating. I love days like that though so I made the best out of it. I have told you all before that I work at Curves, an all women’s health and fitness center. Well we are holding our biggest promotion of the year… join for FREE when you donate a bag of groceries. That saves each person that comes into join two hundred dollars. So we are trying to get the word out by passing out flyers. You know how annoying it is to walk out of Wal-mart and have paper flapping all over your windshield, well that’s what we do. We bug the crap out of people by placing flyers on their windshield in hopes that they will pick it up and read it and come in and join Curves. Most of the time, they drive off with it still tucked under their wipers.

TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL GAME

Ah the warm weather has been absolutely amazing. It makes me miss softball. I do not have a memory more vivid than a warm afternoon out on the softball field surrounded by friends and something that I sincerely enjoy doing and also something that I am pretty good at. I was fortunate enough though to go to a park in Winston-Salem that had a vacant field and just throw with one of my friends and do some soft toss. It has been about a year and a half that I have even stepped foot onto a softball field but I noticed even just playing catch and hitting for fun I still haven’t got out of my softball routine. Every time I had a ground ball hit to be in the outfield I would round it and come up with a big crow hop and gun it home. Even when I was hitting I could still feel myself doing things wrong, like rolling my wrist over too soon or something of that nature. I guess I will never lose any of my softball smarts. I hope in becoming a coach one day. If not for a travel team then for my daughters team (if I have one) or a recreation league at a local elementary school.

MEOWWWW

It does not seem like it has been that long ago since I posted my last blog. Although, it has been five days shy of a whole entire month since I have wrote in this thing. Not a lot of new things have went on since February 15th though, nothing spectacular anyways. However, I did get a new kitty. She is white and gray and very very fluffy. I found her at a home in Stokesdale North Carolina on Craigslist. She is barely as big as my hand but she is eating hard food and going to use the liter box all by herself. For the time being we call her “kitty”. My friend and I actually got her together and we are still debating on names. We were laying on the bed blurting out random names to see if they fit and I called out “Wobbles” and “Bailey”. I really liked Bailey a whole lot better because we have two other bigger cats that are names Callie and Joey. I think Bailey just fits in better with them too. I’ll keep you updated on the final decision.

OH LALA!

My sister has a boyfriend. This is a complete shocker to everyone in my family because she has been seeing the same guy since 9th grade and she is now twenty seven years old. Yeah she has gotten really old but she is still stuck on this one guy. This guy is a bad guy too. He has done some pretty horrible things to her in her life time and my family is totally against him. Well two years ago when they were trying to work things out again she ended up getting pregnant with his child. Now they don't even see or speak much and this guy has nothing to do with his son. My sister is the best mom in the world though and she loves her little boy to death. He is the best thing that has ever happened to her. Well she has had a hard time getting back up on her feet because this guy pushed her to her limit but she is back in school and has made a few friends. One of her friends and her husband introduced my sister to one of his co-workers and they hit it off. He is a little older but seems to really like my sister and my sister seems to be handling it well. She usually runs from people like him that are really infatuated by her because she likes to play hard to get but not this time!
