10 days. i'm sorry for the handful of ppl reading this. not my intention to let it go that long without updating but life has been blissfully busy the past week. So let's chat....
first, i'm 24!!!!!! my birthday was A♥M♥A♥Z♥I♥N♥G!!!! Seriously, the entire week! ok so play by play: bear with me!
Sunday ► baby sis' baby shower! It was so nice! well during the shower someone coerced me into taking double shots of bubble gum *ahem Jenni* soo I started 2 get twisted quite early lol. As the night progressed I got completely TRASHED! Apparently I had a great time but i definitely don't remember much of it. Also my brother & soon 2 be sister in law bought me a COACH!!! i was so excited and surprised!!! i'm so spoiled! Been a long time since i got that wasted & i have a feeling it'll be a while b4 it happens again
Monday ► started off quite rocky. Horrible hangover & extreme irritation. Definitely almost ruined the day, but thank God that it didn't! Spent the day in DC with my BOO!!! Yup...it's official. He's my boo now! It was great just riding arnd w/him, having lunch @ one of my FAVE restaurants (#shoutout 2 UNOS!)Then I met up w/my Ashley.Nicole!! [[missed her!]]
late Monday/Early Tuesday ► regardless of how tired I am, I always stay up until midnite so that I can be the 1st person 2 wish myself a happy birthday [[something i've been doin since childhood lol]] Well, this year things were pleasantly different. Boo came over around 11:30 & we chilled. Then a few minutes b4 12 he prayed for me & sang happy birthday to me [[yup bcuz he's that amazing♥]]...anddd that's all abt that i'mma put out in the blogosphere
TUESDAY MARCH 16, 2010 ►►►► HAPPY 24TH BIRTHDAY MONIQUE!!!!
K soooo it was FINALLY my bday! my most favorite day of the year. I'm so glad I finally got excited abt it bcuz i was def dreading it @ first! Woke up in a great mood & after so many gloomy days the weather was BEAUTIFUL!! Boo surprised me w/flowers & balloons. Went 2 the mall & bought a few things. Had a few drinks...yeah it was noon but it was my BIRTHDAY!!!! LOL. Then I spent the afternoon shopping with one of my FAVE cousins, my sissy, & sis-in-law!! Got another Coach [[name-brand whore]] Had lunch/dinner @ Cracker Barrel (i had NO idea they sold ish other than breakfast lol). #yummmm. I also bought TWO dresses from Old navy! I haven't worn a dress since 2004 (& that was just for sissy's wedding & my prom!) Before that I was 16 the last time i wore a dress! But i feel like it's time 2 evolve...i was excited. Can't wait to wear them! Didn't want the day to end...andd it didn't. We decided to go out...yeah on a Tuesday & unfortunately I didn't take off from work the day after. But it was my bday sooo yeah. We went out. Def wasn't feeling the venue @ first but then the music started going & it actually wasn't that bad. With my favorite sisters, brother, cousins, bro-in-law...had a great time. But only one thing could've made it better...if my baby were there.
Well halfway thru the night, guess who showed up. Yup, u got it. Mr Wonderful♥ So to be able to party with my family & my boo was just a perfect ending to an already great day! Yeah, excited to see what the 25th birthday has in store. I'm hoping to spend it on someone's beach tho!
Wednesday ► I was in no way physically or mentally able to go to work the next day. So @ the urging of my boo I took a mental health day. It was greatly needed. He's so smart :)
Thursday ► back to work & life as normal. BOOOOOO. lol. Was supposed 2 have outback night with my faves buttt shit happens. *kanye shrug* & ended up spending the afternoon sitting by the water downtown w/the boo. It was so simple. But so great. Especially since he kinda came 2 my "rescue". So all was not lost!!
Friday ► Got to see two of my favorites!! Rach & Tiff! anddd got Coach #3! (did i mention that i'm extremely spoiled!) Got home that night & my two favorite teenagers were @ my house...MY NIECEY POOHS!!! All I have to say is this...that night DEFINITELY solidified the fact that they are not kids anymore. My babies are officially growing up. I love them so much & i'm glad that they feel comfortable enough 2 talk 2 me about all kinds of stuff...and when i say all kinds of stuff...i def mean it. SMH those girls...and ended the evening boo lovin!
Saturday ► the ending to my bday festivities. It was absolutely GORGEOUS outside!!!! Even broke out the sandals! Oh how my toes missed freedom!! Birthday lunch with the ENTIRE immediate fam to celebrate me, Norman, & Ice's birthdays. Mini photo shoot in the parking lot (absolutely ADORE my new camera). & spending the afternoon with the family at the park and watching the kids play on the playground was so great. i love my new blended family. we seem to mesh together wonderfully!
so that ends my amazing birthday week. it came too fast and left even faster!!!!! when i went back to work ppl were like, well what did u do? did u take a trip? No. Just spent it with my favorite people. Had all of my favorite foods (yeah def gained a lb or so but whatever). And it was seriously just pure EUPHORIA! was on a natural life high all week long. and i'm sad to see it go :(
anyway, sorry if it's so long. was gonna do some other updates but i'm kinda tired of writing for tonite. sooooo will have to blog all the other stuff later.
☮ & ♥
