So as you know, well no one knows because no one reads this lol .. anywhoooo - I went to my first movie premiere this weekend :) My friend Koran Dunbar wrote, directed, and starred in the local film, Greencastle .. (youtube the trailer!) .. The movie touched me in so many ways .. I could relate to his messages & also to certain aspects of his characters life .. The catch phrase of the movie was, "If you never take chances, you'll never get opportunities" .. Some of us are just so stuck in our "comfort zones" that we never think outside of the box .. we blame others on how our lives have ended up, and most of all, we believe the phrase "God has a plan for us" .. No, we have a plan for ourselves .. God can give us direction and give our life meaning, but he can not make decisions for us .. I've relied on that phrase for so long .. It's more of an excuse .. You always want to blame someone else .. Either your mom, your dad, your childhood, an ex, your past .. Whatever it is .. Start living .. Don't let fear overcome you .. Take that chance .. Do something that you wouldn't normally do .. You just might be surprised of the outcome .. I laughed, I cried, I was shocked, I was caught off guard .. Either way, the movie was excellent & I'm so glad I got to be apart of that night .. Not only for Koran, & all of my work friends, but for myself .. Watching that movie has really changed my perspective on my life, my relationship, & my thoughts on God ..
After the movie we were able to join the After Party .. I had such a great time .. Baby Daddy and I danced the night away while sipping our drinks .. That was honestly our FIRST time ever DANCING together in the year and half we've been together .. Crazy right? We've danced naked in bed and made a baby whilst doing so, but never with our clothes on in public .. How bizarre .. Well I guess we see what Tequila and Vodka do for us .. I enjoyed the lovely moscato (only 4 TINY glasses) while Baby Daddy preferred to get fancy and drink Patron .. on an empty stomach .. 6 of them .. STRONG ones at that .. So yeah .. Needless to say the night ended with NO buzz & NO love for this bitch .. Happy? Not in the least .. I was taking care of my puking 27 year old who I literally carried from the bathroom into the bed, and then let him lay on my shoulder and snore for hours up hours .. I'm trying this new thing called "being a good loving girlfriend" .. It worked .. Sunday consisted of more puking while I picked up our son, grocery shopped, put them away, cleaned the house and took care of a 7 month old, all alone .. While he napped and recuperated .. After a 4hour nap, he woke up and puked some more .. Finally around 6:00 I decided to make ANOTHER grocery store run for bread, saltines, gatorade, applesauce, & pepto .. I sound like a complete mother hubbard having NONE of those in my cupboard .. I promise you, I had them in the house at the time, but the crackers were expired and smelt like paint, the bread had mold, no one likes fruit punch gatorade & the pepto had 2 drops in it .. Housewife, I am not .. I'm a realistic full time working Mom .. So of course I wouldn't have anything we needed .. I did spend less than $60 at WalMart for the first time ever in my life .. I NEVER go there spending less than $100 .. Which makes me miss my other favorite $100 store - Target .. I've been so poor that I can't even afford to shop there .. I wanted to go there to "look around" but knew I'd end up leaving with an outfit, bathing suit, baby stuff, make up, pillows, food, books, and a hot dog from the cafe .. Damn you Target, you run my life ..
So i will leave you with some pictures from this weekend, along with awesome amazing pictures of my beautiful amazing son with the Easter Bunny :) My Mom & Step Dad took him "shopping" and out to dinner .. They are the most amazing grandparents in this world .. and just because i can, AMAZING .. there .. i said 100 times in 2 sentences .. AMAZEBALLS ..
