... secret service

One of my friends called me to chat tonight. He's one of those guys that I had thunk was really nice and sweet and stuff. But as I learned more about him i realized that he was not of the same calibur of my best-est friend (... the one that has the power of 5 pimps in his left hand...). Nevertheless, he's a nice guy... but he always ends up with these women who hurt his feelings. I dunno, it seems as if he's always attracted to an uphill battle. Anyways, it was good to hear from him ... he was telling me about the newest crush he has and how he told her how he feels... and she doesn't seem to be receptive. Oh well, such is life .... We spoke for a while and I told him that i recently started blogging more regularly to express my thoughts .. I asked him if he blogged and he was like "Hell no, i work for the federal gvmn't!!!"

I digress, yes ... PM didn't go on the bike ride with his roomate last friday... instead he came out to hang with me at happy hour. I was glaad!! I wore a tiny brown Vicky-S's dress and showed a lotta cleavage with the help of a good azz vicky-s's strapless padded bra. It was definitely weird walking up to people and watching their eyes dissapear into my mirage of cleavage (.. cuz i'm really as flat as a 2X4)

Also, PM and I scheduled our vegas vacation we leave july 23 and return on the 26th. We're staying at the luxor. ANd apparently he told his californian sister that we're gonna be there and she's gonna meet us there with her hubby and kids. Hmmm... i just hope it doesn't interfere with all of the fun to be had!

The closing on my house is good for july 15th. I got my loan commitment letter from the bank today and everything is all said and done for. I just gotta finsh gathering up my down payment and it'll be mine by july 15. Last night I even stopped by PM's place to pick paint colors. I'm gonna paint 3 different colors downstairs and 2 different colors upstairs... and leave the basement blue. Oh gosh i'm soo excited and happy ... and looking forward to this.

anyways, once again my communist leech sibling hijacked the modem at home... so i'm blogging from work... but it's almost midnight and i'm really tired... so i must run!

I have more to tell.... but i'll save it

peace

... please tell me that i'm over reacting!

Ok i have a gripe... a complaint... a dilemma.... and i need to get it out!

So, last week I asked PM to go to happy hour with me on friday.. with my co-workers. He was cool with it .

So, i called him tonight was on the phone all happy and cheerful and stuff. And I non-chalantly asked him what his plans were for the weekend. I was PLEASANTLY suprised when he told me that he was going for a bike-ride with his roomate on friday evening ... totally disregarding the fact that him and I were supposed to spend friday night together with my peoples.

When I reminded him of our prior plans he told me that he forgot that we had made plans and then he asked me what he should do. I was annoyed and was like "do whatever you want to do" he told me that he wanted to go hang with his roomate....

... I dunno, if i'm over reacting or if i'm just PMS'in but... it kinda hurts to have him ditch me to hang with his roomate... especially since he made plans with me first. Maybe i'm just being my plain old selfish self... wanting things my way all of the time and every day.

I'm really trying to control my feelings but i feel kinda rejected and betrayed.

anyways, i still think i'm over reacting .... i'm gonna sleep on it.

g'nite

... Wilma Flinstone left her washer and dryer in my condo!

Hello again!!!

I was reading through my blog after I blogged last ninght and I realized that I never updated the whole washing machine deal!

Well, after telling my realtor... MB contacted the other realtor about the claim of the 'ol switcheroo. Apparently the owners were upset ... or some shit claiming that they never switched them ... So, it's basically my word against theirs.

I dunno, MB was like "we can send somone over there to make sure the machines are in working order" and PM was pissed talk'in 'bout I should call them and tell them that i don't want them anymore... and that they should remove them from the house.

URghhhh... I just can't bother with all of this drama. I told MB that i'll just let it go... somtimes you've gotta pick your battles... and I don't think this is one that is worth picking. I have no hard evidence (ie. pictures/model numbers/serial numbers) to prove that they switched that shit. So, like I said it's my word against theirs... and I already know it's a lost cause.

PM is still annoyed, i had to get him to stop talking about it ... the other night, and I was kinda bitchy too ... I felt bad afterwards. But, i just want to let it go... and not hear another word on the subject. Yes, it's upsetting and yes i feel slighted and taken-advantage of.. but on the real... I just can't bother with any additional drama!

The bottom line is ... I know the current owners are being shady.. I called them out on it... so now they know that I know that they're dishonest little fuks!!! They know the truth in their hearts.. and they can swear up and down that they didn't switch them (even though they know they did!) ....I just hope they don't teach their poor innocent child how to be a deceptive loser!

... 7 days later!

I've been meaning to sit down and write again... but i simply haven't had the opportunity. Alas!!!! it's amazing what can happen in only ... 7 days!!!

I just got home from work, and i'm ravenously hungry!! I went to the kitchen to grab some grubbaliscious and of course there is no food in the house (eh.. cuz i haven't gone to the grocery store in ages..) So i decided to do something that my stewid sibling does ooooh sooo well!! I grabbed something from the cabinet.. that wasn't mine, and i'm about to GET DOWN ON IT!

Holler!

But let me back track a little bit.... Sooo, the other day I was totally annoyed cuz i thought that PM's roomate was totally hating me. I mean, in the grande scheme of things I doesn't really matter if she likes me or not cuz she's just a roomate. She's a nice girl and all, i'm totally not concerned that she'd get my PM (cuz i'm a zillion times cuter!!!) therefore, i'm totally not jealous. But theres something about her that bothers me... maybe it's the fact that she can't look me in the eye when she says hello (or .. anything else for that matter!). Or maybe because it seems as if her friends feel guilty when they acknowledge me in her presence??? I'm not sure... i'm just not sure what it is. But i always have to laugh to myself when I go over there ... to see a bunch of those "melanin-aly challenged" people sit around watching foreign movies and drinkin all kinds of "exotic beer" ( you know with those colorful labels and drawings and shyt... imported from australia and timbuktu... wheat brew, special hops .. etc. etc. etc.) and having these highly philosophical conversation about things that don't matter to anyone ... except those kinds of people who like to sound maaaad intelligent ... yet, talking about something simplistic, meaningless, irrelevant and trivial.... HA!!!... .

Well, lemme put it to you like this ... I can' t sit around and have enlightening conversation about nothing-ness bullshit .. so, I never have anything to contribute ... I'm starting to think that she thinks that I'm dumb or beneath her ... or some shyt ...

Hmm... well... then again ... maybe she hates it when we have LOUD SEX in his room ... maybe she just envies me!

... Uh huh... lemme tell you... the WB is the original freak!!! (Yeah, forget what ya herd!)

Ugh!!!

I'm getting ready to go to Brown... and get my shyt together ... and be greater than I already am!

I have more to tell, but i'm freakin tired!

sorry

... hacking a lung!

.. I've spent the last 5 days or so... hacking up a lung.. well maybe several lobes of my lung. I was coughing so bad the other day that someone thought that I was in the midst of an asthma attack. It's kinda funny now that I think about it, I had asthma pretty bad as a youngster... but I haven't had any bouts since i was maybe 16. (it's been soo long that i actually forgot)

anyways... I digress!!!!

So, let me start off with the house hunt update. As i said in a previous post, I found a nice, good sized condo in providence ... I made an offer an they accepted it. Soooo... when I did my first walk-thru of the house I noticed the the washer and dryer were new (cuz they still had that blue protective sticker covering the console). Subsequently, my realtor prepared the bid to include the washer and dryer in my offer. In the end, the current owners agreed to sell me the condo with all of the appliances! I was totally psyched!!! Well well well.. I went for my home inspection last thursday and as the inspector walked me through the house i couldn't help but notice that a different set of machines had 'materialized' in the basment ... like a model from 1985. I had to really compose myself because i was in total disbelief when i saw the ancient dinosaurs that had crept up in my basement (... like the belonged there and shyt !!!!) But, instead of having kittens on the spot, I second guessed myself ... thinking that I may not have seen what I thought that I had seen during my inital visit....

The inspection went well.. no major issues

The next day, i called my mom and aunt and asked them both to describe the machine that they say during our initial visit. And ... yes, the both described the machines as being new (exactly like the one that mom has.. currently). I really hate to create drama and maybe even animosity ... but I called my realtor and told her that they switched the machines.

Trust me, i don't want no old ass machines that are gonna break down in 3 months, and then it'll be my headache to find and pay someone to remove them.. and return them to the flintstones... (.ie junkyard!!! )

Urghhh... people have no scruples... and they'll do anything to rip someone off!!!! I'm still waiting to hear back from the realtor.

Yesterday (sunday actually) my BF had a dinner party at his apt (it was his moms b-day). It was really nice... Yo, they can throw down in the kitchen... they're no joke for real!!! I love to watch my BF cook, he's so intese whilst preparing grub ... like he totally goes into a trance ... with furrowed eybrows and all. The first few times I observed him in the kitchen... i thought he was mad or somethin. But, i've dicovered that his facial expression is due to a trance cuz he's concentrating on preparing food.

lol... he tried to get me to stop by, on my way home from work today ... I asked him if he was gonna cook for me ... lol

... oh how the roles have changed!

i'm tired and the catweilier is extra antsy tonight... he needs some doggy ritalin!!!


pease!

...sorrrry i toook soooo loooong!

Hey hey hey!!!

yeah, i've been away from this thing for a while... AHhhhhh soo much has happened since last i wrote.

Ok, i'm gonna give you the quick rundown!!!

1. my brother is a moron, he's an embarrassedment... and i'm still maintaining minimal contact!

2. my PB calls every now and then, we're still civil...i used to wonder... but now i'm ova that shyt!

3. I have a new boyfriend, he so totally head-over-heels for me. I've never experienced this degree of head over heel'ed-ness ever in my LIFE!!! But it feels really good, it's just so wonderful to have a man in your life who is willing to reciprocate all of my affections and attention 100%. I love him... i've fallen hard. I'm still afraid of being tossed like last weeks basura... but, everytime I see him and I hug him... i feel really safe and content. I haven't been so happy ... ever!

(thank God for the stewpid azz book "He's just not that into me" ... I recommend it to any woman putting up with the stewpidity of immature non-commiting... not-acting-right men!!!!)

... no more drama ladies!!!

4. I decided to buy a house before i start school at brown. Well, it' virtually impossible to find an apt. accepting 90lb rotweillers (ehem... catweilers). So, i started my house hunt about a month ago.

It was the most stressful thing that i've done. The first realtor that i was referred to LB, was totallly uninterested in working with someone who was only willing to spend 150k on a house. She was lazy and unprofessional. So, i went on realtor.com and started looking for myself. I came across a really cute house at 31 standish avenue... put a bid on it only to have a fukker realtor..... (OOOOOOh lemme put his name on blast: Michael Gardiner of real estate one ltd) attempt to racially discriminate against me.

Mind you... i don't like to openly accuse folks or racial discrimination but my current boyfriend (who is white... and I am black) was the first person to jump all over the "race-card".... and ... as i told my other friends and collegues many felt the same way.

Soooo... essentially the story goes a little like this. the house was on the market for 154,900... i put in a bid at 148,000 and the owners accepted the bid. When i told them that i was gonna put 15k down, Michael demanded that i show evidence of having 15k in my accounts. So he changed the acceptance to a conditional acceptance pending that i demonstrate i have the money in the bank.

Soooo... i asked how i should prove it to him... and he wanted me to send him a copy of my PERSONAL bank statement. Uhhhh... how crazy is that??? A freakin realtor asking to see my PERSONAL bank info??" needless to say, i refused to furnish that info. At that point i was advised to get the mortage on the house and forward the documentation his realty office. I paid my $200 mortage application fee... go the mortage in less than an hour... faxed over all of the information. And made plans to sign the purchase and sales agreement. I was relieved... and took the catweiler for a 2 hour walk .. only to return to 8 missed calls on my celly. I returned the call .. and that fat fuck face Michael Gardiner had recieved and accepted another bid over mine!!!!!!! They were pressuring me to counter offer; but, I was sooo salted that I told him to take the better bid.

Well, i took 2 weeks off from the house hunt and i found a new realtor who helped me find a really nice condo. last weekend.... i put a bid on it... and today i signed the purchase and sales agreement...so i'm acutally all set!!! ( it's bigger and better in several different aspects.... i shall elaborate on a later date)....

... but, it's it ironic?.....
they called me 2 days ago to tell me that the deal fell through with the house at 31 standish (..yes AB called it!!!! like 1.5 wks ago!!!) and they wanted to know if i was still interested in the property. ALl i can say is... they're lucky i missed the call... and i'm unlucky that i missed the call!!! dey can kiss my azz!!!!

yo, real estate is maaaad grimy!

WEll i gotz to work.. check ya later
