About Me

My Photo
I am a single black woman in her early thirties who realizes that while I enjoy a few things in life I rarely get to enjoy them. I am participating in this blogging experience to with all honestly try something new and because of the arm twisting of my co-worker. Hell this is cheaper than counselling.To put myself out there. I am a person who uses the computer on a daily basis yet I am still so far removed from technology. I don't use instant messenger..it freaks me out. While I am on Facebook I certainly don't use it as a social site so blogging about my everyday life is far removed from what I do but isn't that what life should be about trying something different. So this is it.

Hot Mess


Unfortunately 2 weeks ago Friday was not a reflection of my intelligence. I did not know my limit and did not know when to say stop. I am 31 years old and for the first time I got wasted to the point of no return. Essentially I transformed from a sophisticated professional to a HOT MESS. I have little recognition of the night. I do remember the pleasant experience of throwing up in the parking lot and being assisted home.


Can you imagine me and my amazon self (5 ft "11) swaying to the beat of a drum that no one else can hear?

I have little recognition of speaking to a guy I used to date. I pretty sure that I said something nasty but I know that I did not cause a scene, because my girls would have told me. I am not worried about what I said because alcohol doesn’t make you say anything that you are already not feeling.

I had grand plans of writing a blog entry on a Girl’s Night Out. I planned to take pictures of us, the party and get our experiences of being hit on by men, the club scene etc.

Yet I have little memory of the night but a strong feeling of embarrassment. I must thank my lovely friends for holding things down since I had a short leave of my senses.

This event was a Wayne Warner All Black Affair event its was supposed to be a class act and me not acting the part. I was worried sick by different what if scenario's. Is it possible that my co-worker and/or classmates saw me acting the fool?
I spent the whole day on Saturday in agony and worry. Unable to hold anything down feeling weak, sweaty, cold and hot.

This Saturday I found pictures on my camera that I dont remember taking. According to my friends this was on our way out. Since I was able to stand up straight to take these photos I feel confident that I didn't make a complete ass of myself. I breath a *(sigh)* of relief and realize that a disaster was averted and trust me a lesson was definitely learned.

Hey..happens to the best of us. I went for drinks one nite w. the ex..don't know how I made it home, how he got in my bed(fully dressed might I add lol)...and we couldn't find his car until late afternoon...THE NEXT DAY. SMH.

Now when we're age 90 we'll have a grand story to tell the grandkids of how we were a hot, sometimes hot messy, mami back n the day! :)

Sorry you had such a bad night out. Maybe it will help you to look past it and forgive yourself by not creating an online public reminder to yourself of that night? That may just keep you in the cycle of looking back with regret, instead of taking the lesson you may have learned and not looking back. Just a thought. Must be a horrible feeling. I can only imagine.
