Me's a Working Women Now

This past week has honestly been a blur. On Saturday, I went to Sebastian's b-day party and danced until I couldn't. It was honestly a really fun party. I was really anxious to go since I didn't know anyone, and also not everyone speaks English, so I didn't know who I could talk to and what I would do for most of the party. But Sebastian's bf played some good music and me and Naoni started dancing and didn't stop until 2 in the morning, lol. I showed them some Caribbean style dancing, and not the stiff Ranchero stuff. But the ultimate highlight of the night is Sebastian's reaction to his Shrek soda, he literally couldn't stop laughing every time he looked at it.

Then the next morning, I went to Starbucks to meet with you guessed it, Sebastian, Marina, and surprise guess Kenan. So Kenan is Marina's bf, but also I knew him before they started dating, but I got closer to her than him for some reason even though I knew him first... Any who, we played catch up and decided that it was time for us to change location, so we watched this bootie movie called, "The Haunting of Hannah Grace." The demon kept T-posing all of her victims to death, and for the rest of the day we kept pretending we were being crucified (but I'm not lying, the "horror" in the movie was simply t-poses it got so annoying towards the end). After the movie, we decided we were starving and ate some food in the town next to mine called, Lawrenceville. And tbh, Lawrenceville is where I grew up for most of my life, but with all the new constructions, gentrification, and deforestation. I don't really recognize it as so anymore. I guess I claim Dacula more so these days (though it feels gross). But going to Lawrenceville made me realized that I don't need to drive 30 minutes to eat overpriced food, I can drive 10 to get even MORE overpriced food (like I spent $35 for myself and an appetizer T_T).

(the second image scared us because we thought it was the KKK, but zoomed in a realized it was chicken in a butcher's shop lol, we were fully prepared to leave)

For Tuesday, I went to a PCP, got my fingerprints done, and then the gyno. I was going to one appointment to the next all day, but I'm almost done being medically cleared after all that, so it was worth it. I just have to get my polio, pneumonia, hep B, and tetanus vaccine 🙃 (fyi I got both my hep B and tetanus, but according to my doctor the antibodies are nonexistant for my hep B since I got as a child and my tdap shot record disappeared since I don't have one doctor I go to, but simply anyone that accepts my insurance, honestly it's a habit I need to break because I can't be getting painful vaccines twice). Then yesterday and today I've been slaving away at Chipotle. Today wasn't too bad, but yesterday was absurd. This weird guy got fired, and then we got a massive catering order and a whole bunch of greedy people came insisting on getting massive portions. We literally ran out of everything. For at least 1 hour, we didn't even have rice. It was so stressful and tiresome. However, to counter such a stressful day I found a bunch of senior letters from high school and Sebastian's made me laugh. Idk why, but especially in high school when he would talk to me, he would spit on me a lot, and it made me mad, and I guess I said it enough time that he mentioned in his letter. Also, I told y'all I'm shy and quiet! Even my friend when he knew me for a year already still thought I was quiet.

But today is my nephew's, John, birthday. He turned 6 years old. I didn't want to do anything after work, but we took him to a native wildlife sanctuary and got to see some native species of Georgia. Surprisingly, I've seen gators, black bears, beavers, turkeys, bald eagles, and foxes. On the other hand, I didn't even know otters even existed in Georgia. There were also owls. And like I've seen owls fly and heard their hoots, but I've never seen them in broad daylight and in such detail! I was pleasantly surprised and thought they looked so cute! I think they might be one of my new favorite animals (of course, right after bears).

....So that was my stressful and long week and writing it down re-legitimizes why I've been so tired these last couple of days, so hopefully I can get some sleep tonight! See ya next we people 🤪

(Pic #1 and #2 were the clearest pics of the animals I got. Pic #3 doesn't it intrigue ever so slightly like is it going to burn a hole into my esophagus or is it going to be my most favorite drink...who knows! Pic #4 is the inside of a beehive that one of my local library has. We tried to find the queen with the kit the library staff provide, but to no avail, but we did learn about all the local bee species in our area and the flowers this particular beehive was using to produce honey. Next we have Pic #5 which was my nieces and I walking around Atlanta (which I don't like to do too much due to the uncomfortable amount of catcalling and staring of men, but the city itself is cute or whatever)
