1. In my post about videos, I meant Vh1 Soul not the regular Vh1. That beats almost any channel any time.
2. I don't know anybody named Lucky. My sister does. Apparently she's known him longer than I thought.
3. No, I don't like Ne-Yo. I don't think anybody was even really confused about that. I just figured I'd put that out there and get it over with.
4. My managers name is Donica not Donita...as if that matters.
5. I will not be clearing up my "You Know What" post. The person that needed to understand it did.
6. McLovin is an Irish R&B singer, lol.
and ummmm...
I guess that's the end of my own little Jay-Z moment. At least for now.
The Roots, Gym Class Heroes, & Estelle ;; October 4th in Norfolk
Lupe;; October 11th in Baltimore.
There's also Shwayze & Tyga October 6th in Norfolk I was thinking about but I don't know.
What am I going to do?!
You're right. And that dude you just met named Lucky sounds sooo much better.
Sidenote: His nickname is Lucky apparently because his mother had her tubes tied and still got pregnant. In my opinion, her nickname should have been changed to 'Blown'. Anyway...
I guess I understand where you're coming from. You're used to a certain type of dude and no matter how much you deny it your decisions on companions are somewhat based on what you're friends would think. I know what I like...sort of.
I'm 0-3 with those other dudes. Clearly, even with everything we did have in common things weren't right. At this point I have nothing to lose. Besides, you only live once and I'm not trying to be thinking, "What if" and "I wonder what that would have been like" the rest of my life.
Even if everything goes terribly wrong, even within the next 20 minutes, it'll make for a good story at the least.
I say all of that to say this:
I don't care how wack he sounds to you. He's kinda dope to me, lol.
As wack as that sounded....
"Did u know Lupa was going to be at love sept 21"
My first reaction was 'who the hell is Lupa?' then a second later I realized she meant Lupe. Then I shook my head when I realized it wasn't a typo or anything. She actually put Lupa.
I told her yes I knew when I'd actually forgot all about it. A friend of mine that is probably at LOVE every Saturday told me back in July maybe. He's like an insider there now or something.
But the whole point of this is....
My MOTHER texted me about a Lupe event! What the hell is going on here?
She's actually not sure if it's this month or next month but I guess it's the thought that counts. Right?
She's a white lady named Donita or something like that. She is there to replace the old manager we hated and apparently are responsible (partly) for getting fired. We went without one for a while and the two assistant managers took over. That was good while it lasted.
Now, I just met her yesterday. Everybody else met her while I was gone on my much needed mini-vacation from that place.
So, I come in to open and the store looks a mess. Like they hadn't straightened anything since I was there. The girl who was supposed to close called out and they put somebody in there from another store who clearly did nothing all day. So I'm cleaning up and folding everything that was destroyed in the store when the new manager comes in.
...By the way the store still looks a mess even when it's clean now because she changed everything around and none of it makes any sense. She said "we need to be telling a story with our store". That should tell you enough...
Anyway, while I'm folding she's looking around the store and is like 'when you get a chance go fix those slippers over there' and I proceed to tell her I will but right now I'm fixing all this other stuff that was messed up but she cuts me off and is like 'yeah, you probably have a lot to do'. She keeps talking but I'm not listening anymore. THEN she asks 'What's all this? Returns?' referring to what my attention was on the whole time she was talking.
.....I told her, 'No, it's all the stuff that wasn't folded' she makes this retarded face and says some other shit I can't remember then says she'll be back. She didn't. Thank God.
......I need a new job.
They just siced the hell out of me.
I turn to it and Paris, Tokyo is on. So I was like 'Okay I'm gonna stay up for like 3 more minutes.'
Then that goes off any my favorite Lupe video Daydreamin' comes on. So I'm hype for seeing that on TV for the first time in forever.
Then 'Everybody' with Andre, Bentley and Ye comes on. THEN freakin' 'Workout Plan' by Ye comes on. I forgot he even made a video for that. This was great, lol.
Needless to say...I'm just now about to go to sleep.
I should have been sleep 3 hours ago.
I'll try though since I did promise...kind of.
Well I will say that the last four days were better than normal for me. Best couple days of doing nothing I've had in a while.
I was actually relaxed, I found out some things about myself, and now I don't want to go back to work. I guess that happens when you get 4 days off from work..kind of.
I need my own store ASAP.
That line and that line only has been replaying in my head over and over for the last two days. It's not like the whole song is stuck in my head because it's not. I can be singing something else and that line randomly pops back into my head like a recurring dream type of thing.
I wonder why.
Seriously.
And I don't need YOU pointing it out. Thank you very much.
Now I'm on my way back home to eat the Taco Bell I just bought. After that I'm out in search of (no pun intended) 2 of 2.
I clearly have nothing to do today.
I am surprised I can even make complete sentences right now seeing as how I only got 3½ hours of sleep and now I'm at work until 6. That means I won't be home until 7.
See my mother told me at damn near one that she had to be at the airport by 6 which meant I had to be up by 5 something. So I didn't get home until around 7 and I had to leave by a little after8:30 in order to be to work by 9:30. So yeah.
Right about now I'm praying I don't fall asleep on the way home.
I should be good.
.....I just remembered that the whole point of this post was to let you know I updated the Zune Shuffle.
...because you wouldn't check it if I didn't tell you.
Clearly, I'm the only one who remembers the line from the movie where they say McLovin sounds like the name of an Irish R&B singer.
So there you go. I do not know any rhythm and blues singers nor do I know any Irishmen...that I know of.
Also, I wasnt working in the actual Colonial Williamsburg store the other day,lol. The store 'The Williamsburg Shoppe' that I was in gets their stuff from them. Both bore me equally.
....Well, I thought it was cute.
That and I need something to do so I decided to post.
I'm only gonna say it was due to scheduling conflicts. That shit really sucks because I wanna see Bestest. I'll make it over there someday. Someday.
Anyway, my retarded ass manager messed my schedule up again anyway and didn't give me all my days off. Looks like I'll be calling out that Saturday.
Since I won't be traveling across the country I guess I can make another trip up north to see my friend who is an Irish R&B singer.
I don't wanna waste my days off.
You can tell that is just one of the things that isn't selling so we're gonna push it on you as a 'great gift idea'.
Don't be fooled. It isn't.
Sure, somebody will take it and act appreciative but it will never be used.
People that do cook a lot will probably be sloghtly offended and people that don't will be insulted.
Don't do it. You can't win.
...it may have already been broken but I'm telling people that don't know that I did it, lol.
I have 6 more hours to go.
Prepare for random posting.
So in a way nothing going as planned was part of the plan. If that makes any sense.
To start 2 people were supposed to go with me and after I paid for the room I found out the day of they couldn't go. Then I found 2 more people. To make that long story short they couldn't go either. So at this point I'm half pissed half disappointed but still determined to go. I had to get the hell up out of Maryland.
To fast forward this part...my mom ended up riding with me.
Now any other time this would be extra weak to me but I figure I wasn't supposed to go with anybody if nobody could go.
I'm actually glad nobody came with me. As bad as that sounds.
McLovin is thee greatest. He's also hilarious and adorable. I mean... just so you know.
Oh and any house party that plays Kanye, Lupe and Pharrell is fine with me, lol.
And just so YOU know...I will never call you that. Ever. lol. AND we are actually going to fight next time but this time it will be because you smacked me in the face twice! [It's not nearly as bad as it sounds].
Lastly, because I don't feel like typing anymore....
Yes Cannon, I do like Philly like that, lol.
...and I will be going back asap.
