Labor Day Weekend

So yeah, It was a stressful Friday afternoon, 

but then i went to be with my man and things started brightening instantly.

We went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner at the Sawgrass Mills Mall, and it was PACKED. But at the same time we had amazing service and the food was phenomenal! David had the Chicken Alfredo and I had the Orange Chicken, and we both were swept away by the quality and the taste of the food. The presentation for my meal was beautiful as well!

Looks too good to eat right? But eat it i did and the chicken just melted in my mouth and the sweet and sour of the orange was perfect!  What was really wild was the fact that one of the chef's came out not even 15 minutes after we ordered and apologized for the wait because David's pasta wasn't ready yet.  Needless to say we were impressed and flabbergasted all at the same time. Impressed that a CHEF came out and apologized for the delay, but flabbergasted because it was a typical busy Friday night and it was understandable that food would be slightly delayed in delivery.

Before we went to dinner we went to Spencer's Gift to see if David could find a dragon claw finger armor that would fit his characters as well as over the leather gloves that he wears. But lo and behold he couldn't find one, but i did!!! Fit my hand perfectly!

Such a pretty thing no? The 'gem' isn't red but that's okay, I can say i stole it off a nobleman.  It needed a little adjustment but nothing that David couldn't fix.  After that we went to dinner as previously described then went to Jackson's Ice Cream.  Which was another amazing experience for me as well as a first.  Two MASSIVE scoops of ice cream, death by chocolate and coffee drizzled with chocolate mint ice cream.  I'm salivating just thinking about it.

We went home and played the Wii until 3 am >< and woke up late on Saturday to go to Pier 66 in Ft Lauderdale to be with his parents on their boat.

Isn't she pretty?!  i couldnt handle going belowdeck, too much movement and nothing to see and focus on other than David being a meanie and holding his arms out and reinforcing the rolling and tilting of the boat.  Needless to say I went on deck and relaxed on a deck chair while his mom made us lunch and we ate then got ready to go to the pool, which consisted of me just taking off my shorts and tank top because my bikini was underneath.

We went to the pool and swam and relaxed in the water.  It felt fantastic to be back in the water again. After we were in the water for a few hours we went back to the boat and drank water and had some fruit.  We all got dressed and then David and i walked down to his car, and i just had to admire the sun as it was peaking through the clouds.

We decided that since we were nearby we could go to the Pirate Republic Bar off of A1A and also visited the adjoined Pirate Shop, which is where i have gotten all of my pirate related tank tops.  We also were on the hunt for a swim suit for me since the one i have is juuust a touch too small.  And we found an awesome red one by Body Glove, which is a great company by the way and the suit itself was also very cheap comparative to some others that we saw. . .

Looks great doesn't it?  The color is called Ladybug Red, and the pictures doesn't really do it justice.  I will hopefully be able to wear it out again soon and i will have David take a picture.  It fits me a lot better than the other suit and it covers my big bum a lot better as well.

We also went to Lulu's Bait Shack for dinner and we had some GREAT quesadillas, even better than Moe's!  We also ordered a "Purple Jester" which was REALLY freaking good, almost too good. . . it came with one of those toy hollow alligators that held a floater of 151, which David poured into the drink itself.

We had an awesome view from where we we sitting as well, we could look down and watch the people walking by and watch the boats and freighters go by.  We discussed a lot of things, when we could hear each other since they had a cover band playing and we were very close to them.

After that we went home and relaxed and slept in until about 830 sunday morning.  I wish we could have slept in longer but i had to work all day. . . which really sucked.

Which is obvious considering my expression.  But Monday was better because I could REALLY sleep in, even though i had the dog that night.  It was just a pretty chill day of getting a few things done even though i have a shit ton of things to do still.

Though the most entertaining part of the day was watching my dog go after the lizards on the window and her JUMPING onto the windowsill like a damned cat!!

All in all i had a great weekend!

Abandonment Issues And General Distrust Of Men

So last week my sister gets into a VERY minor car accident (I.E. No damage whatsoever but the guy she bumped is a real dick) and in panic my mother called my father to get some advice.

My father meanwhile is on a boat in Islamorada for the weekend with his precious buddies most likely and being his normal narcissistic egocentric self and says that there is NO possible way that he could receive a phone call because his precious headset is broken and he'd have to get a new one and . . . 

can you smell the bullshit or do i have to keep showing you more?

ANYWAYS, he tells me that he's deleted my mother's voice mail without even listening to it, and that he'd be out of contact until he gets back Sunday.  Which i relay to my mother and stuff gets bad FAST.  He starts to not respond to any of my texts, which i DEMAND that he call me (cuz god forbid he goes below decks or use the phone ON BOARD). 

So my sister texts him basically saying "well it could have been worse, but thanks for showing how much you care," and all of a sudden he's backpedaling and the pile starts getting higher and higher and REALLY reeking.

Saturday morning at ONE AM i get an e-mail from him basically telling me that even though i want NOTHING to do with him he's still going to try to contact me, and that my mother is/was never supposed to call him in emergencies. . . that she could only text him. . .   My first thought is WHAT THE HELL!? the next is merely oh whatever you sad excuse for a man.  

But then my mother gets TWELVE text messages from him, accusing her of calling him on purpose just to make sure that he pissed both myself and my sister off because HE showed he didnt care about what happened to his daughters (My sister and I basically said the same thing to my mom "What does one of us have to be in the hospital, dead or dying for him to sit up and take notice?").  He also accuses her of forcing us away from him, and that it would cause  "long term damage to all relationships they have with men", and that whatever reply, however logical would be "hateful". 

Umm. . . Mom taught me to love, to hug, to smile, to see all the beauty in the world even in the little things. HE was the one that made his friends more of a priority over his goddamn family! HE is the one that left us, abandoned us, showed us that the man we trusted, the man that made the most who helped provide a room over our heads would walk out of our home and our lives with little to no provocation other than the fact that he couldnt handle his own guilt and being held repsonsible for his actions.

But its all my mother's fault that this has happened and all my mother's fault that I will probably never trust the male race ever again, all because he left us without a word, just uprooted all of us violently and carelessly.


Yes you bastard, blame my mother, blame her for your shortcomings yet again.


We shall see who rises and who falls.

BINDI!!!

So my bindi finally arrived last week and the spirit gum arrived earlier this week, and i finally had some time to put it on and mold the bindi to the curve of my forehead where i HOPE to be able to put the bindi.

Though the original way the vendor intended to have the bindi worn is framing the eyes like so:

 

Both ideas i like, and depending on how i finally decided to do my hair in may one of these placements will be how i wear this bindi.

Now i just have to get my ass in gear and work more on my solo so i'll have something to perform then!
