I have nothing else better to do but sit here and blog. I do admit I feel better today … I did not wake up with a headache this morning. I want to do something constructive today such as maybe go see Spiderman II or maybe even get some flyers out to advertise my computer business (by the way did I ever mention that I do freelance computer repairs). I went and got my business license the other day so I could work legally … it was really easy to get.
The only problem is advertising in my local area. I thought about posting an ad in the paper but the prices are so inflated. $104 for one week! I’m going to check out the Virginia Pilot and see if they are any better … probably not since it covers a larger area than the Daily Press. I also called the local phonebook but they never called me back … that was 2 days ago. I have read that advertising in the phonebook is wayyyy expensive though.
Yesterday I started thinking about friends which is something I usually don’t do surprisingly, I have come to realize who my real friends are too. And have found that I have about 5 close friends in my life and that’s Keysha, Skeeter, Peugeot, Kevin and Theo. I’ve known Skeeter and Peugeot longer than the rest of them. I have known Skeeter since I was 11 years old and then Peugeot came along after.
I remember when Skeeter did not like Peugeot because when I was around 14 years old, Peugeot and I were dating each other. HA! It’s so funny to think about and the scarey thing is that they both look the same and there is still some friction between them. We went through a lot of shit together. I remember the time when Skeeter fought some guy, punched him and knocked him clean out of his shoes. HAHAHAHAHA!
I will try to get some pics up of them. We all know each other (except for Theo) and they all have kids except for me; but then again, I am the youngest out of the clan anyway – there’s no shame in my game and in some ways its for the better. No regrets at all.
Speaking of which my birthday is on August 26th and I will be turning 27. Gosh what happened to 26! But I have to admit life seemed like it was speeding up from 16-25 because it’s hard to remember much of it; 26 has gone by a whole lot slower which is good. Keysha is 28, Skeeter will turn 32 on July 3rd (gotta get him a gift), Peugeot is 30 (I think) God only knows how old Kevin is but I know he is older than all of us … may about 33 since I think he is 7 years older than me, and Theo is 31 but he keeps crying about how he is an old man. He is always talking about how he is now closer to 40 than 20 (eye roll) and how I have a whole life in front of me and that I’m young and stuff. Jees, I mean he’s only like 5 years older than me. But then again, Keysha keeps talking about how skinny I am. I guess we all think its greener on the otherside of the fence standing in other peoples’ shoes. But as for me, I have always been a gypsy, happy to be myself and my mindset.
Okay, I’m starting to ramble, that’s it for now.
