Randomness

Not much of anything has been happening the last two weeks. I really don't have anything of even minor substance to blog about so I will just post randomness since a certain someone told me I need to update my blog.

My brother came to visit this past weekend. He had a blast. It was unfortunate that we had to miss a get-together since he was sleeping like a rock thanks to the Breakfast Club. He woke up, felt bad, and asked me to go fetch us some food. We ate, talked for a while and then went to sleep. Following morning, we did some minor running around and getting a few things out of the way but since he came down with friends, he had to leave earlier than normal. I didn't really get to hang out with him much but what little time I spent with him was fun.

That same day, I met up with the friend that keeps reminding me to update my sorry excuse for a blog and one of her friends. I asked her to call me when they got done "Dress Barn-ing it up" if they felt like having my company when they went out to eat. She called me when they got done shopping and thanks to me being half asleep when she called, a bunch of silliness happened.

I was told where to meet and it registered just fine when I heard it but my brain decided to interpret what she said as "scratch what she just said and meet her up at the restaurant that is closest to where they were shopping". So I go to said restaurant and order. I notice they are nowhere to be seen so I text to make sure. I am told that I am not where I need to be and feel like a total d-bag because of it. I then proceeded to wait for the food I ordered there, drove my silly ass where I needed to go and enjoyed their company while feeling like a d-bag. I was picked on by the friend and waiter for making everybody wait and I deserved it. Right as I we were about to leave, I noticed another group of friends was dining there as well so I said my goodbyes to the pretty ladies and stayed at the restaurant an extra hour to chat with the group.

That's about it really. Not much else has happened since those two events. I did a few homeworks, took a couple of tests, worked, but thats about it.

My apologies for the randomness but I had to do it to appease the only reader of my nonsense.

What a lovely tea party.

You might be wondering what correlation the tittle and this post will have and I am here to tell you that there isn't one. I just like using silly quotes from movies and other sorts of entertainment that I think sound cool. Kinda lame, I know but that's how I do.

Now to my actual post:

I've felt rather lazy this weekend. So lazy that I have been neglecting some of my studying for a test and homework that has to be turned in on Tuesday. I will admit that I always have my lazy moments but they rarely last longer than a few hours. Normally I get really bored after 2 hours of being lazy and start cleaning or something. Not this weekend for some reason.

I've tried everything to get out of my lazy mood but nothing has worked. I was going to go help some friends move one of their grandpa's on Saturday but unfortunately, my car is having a little muffler problem at the moment and I don't want to travel much until I get it replaced on Monday. I am sure that would have gotten me out of my kick too.

After apologizing to my friends for not being able to help, I had another friend call me and ask if I wanted to go out to eat. This friends likes to keep me out for quite a few hours so I figured she would try the same thing this time which is why I agreed to meet up with her and whichever of her friends was going to be coming along. We agreed to meet at 5 at Texas Roadhouse. Thanks to her getting all pretty and going to go pick up her friend, she just happened to be about an hour late. I am glad that I had my phone with me to keep me company. They finally showed up and we had a fun time. I ripped on my one friend the entire time for making me wait so long.

One great thing that came out of me waiting for them for so long (sorta kinda) is that I got a free meal out of it. When the waitress came along to ask how the checks were going to be split - my friends friend said separate. The waitress thought that meant my friends friend on one check and my friend and I on the other since we were sitting next to each other and apparently looked like a couple. so we get the bill and I tell my friend thanks for the meal and she actually paid for it. Funny thing is I actually like like my friend but she is completely oblivious to my advances. Maybe it's for the best it stays that way too.

I was trying to make a point there about my lazy weekend but got sidetracked telling a little side story. Back to the show!

After we got done with our meals, I was asked if i wanted to join them at Hooters. I had to think about it for a while but then I told them no. not only because I haven't had a good experience at that place, but because they were meeting a few other of their friends there and I didn't want to be a bother. In reality though, I just wanted to go back to being lazy in my apartment by lounging on my couch and watching a movie. Had they not made me wait an hour at Texas Roadhouse, I probably would have gone, no questions asked since I enjoy flirting with my friend and have her be completely oblivious to it all. I'm weird, I know.

Now it's Sunday and my laziness has yet to go away. I have been watching classic Naruto episodes all morning and didn't have the motivation to do anything. Then I figured I might as well update my blog. Thankfully updating my blog has helped get me out of my funk. As soon as I am done with my blog and a few more episodes of Naruto (damn me for picking and awesome block to start watching), I will start cleaning and then doing my homework.

I've got game?

Disclaimer of sorts: I am not trying to brag in any way, shape, or form with the latest update of my blog. I like to think of myself as a very modest person but I felt like posting this because it has struck me in awe.

About 3 weeks ago, it was brought to my attention that a lot of the women and girls around my age have been flirting with me at work. I told the person that pointed this out to me that they did not know what they were talking about and that they were just imagining things. I thought to myself, "There's no f-ing way most of these people are flirting with me seeing as how I am not broadcasting that I want a girlfriend at the moment" but boy was I wrong.

Not even a day passed when I actually started noticing people flirting with me and going a little out of their way to talk to me. I didn't think anything of it until the women actually started telling me that if they were younger, they would be all over me faster than...something that is really fast. I had heard these comments before but I always felt it was for laughs but I could tell there was truth in their eyes. Some of them even made me blush to the point where I couldn't really respond.

The girls my age are a little sneakier about it and decide to tell my best bud at work (who is female and we pretty much tell each other everything) about how some put claims on liking me and that other girls weren't allowed to flirt with me. I felt flattered to an extent when I heard that and creeped out at the same time.

After I noticed all these people actively flirting with me, i was told that it was my own fault for flirting with them. I had no idea what she was talking about and then she told me that since i am nice all the time, and treat people like i want to be treated, that it comes of as flirtatious/nice hence people flirting with me.

Ever since this was pointed out to me, I have stopped being as friendly. Not because they are fuggos/old/whatever but because I don't want that much attention from that many of the opposite sex without me feeling like I want to "hit that". Some of you might be thinking "bullshit" but I am totally serious. The only attention I would like to be grabbing is of future prospects and my place of work doesn't really have many to choose from. Not ones without herpes anyways ^_^*....gross.

I was told that what I do is called social flirting which makes a lot of sense. When I talk to people, I try to put a smile on their face to brighten up their day just a little so I can see how that can be misconstrued as flirting.

Now if only I could be this effective with girls I want to ask out and possibly date...

c'est la vie

I've come to the realization that I'm losing touch with most of my good friends and it makes me a little sad. Some I am losing touch with because we don't work together anymore, while others, I am losing to this inevitable thing called responsibility and the next step in the grand scheme of life.

I don't know why, but I feel as though most of the good times I have had with all my current friends are coming to a close. I try to keep in touch and not push anything on anyone since I don't know what most of their schedules are like anymore but its not really working as well as I had planned. Calls go unanswered, text messages are not replied to, and so on and so forth.

This made me stop wasting my time and wait until something was mentioned by someone other than me which seems to be working but not at the pace it used to just a few months ago.

I guess that time inevitably gets the best of friendships which is what happened when I was younger and was used to moving every year, but I was hoping things would be different with this group of friends.

Hopefully, I will continue having fun with most of my friends but I'm sure those fun times won't be like they used to be thanks to everyone drifting apart.

Such is life I guess so I will make sure to make lemonade when the bitch throws lemons my way.

I have a confession to make.

I have betrayed you, sweet blog of mine. She is a sweet mistress and her name is Twitter. Don't get me wrong, I still care for you and will post on you, but Twitter is able to offer me so much more with less. Not only do I have a 160 character limit per post (which means less time in front of my computer) but I also don't have to worry about trying to make sense of all the thoughts in my head and trying to neatly arrange them all in a post. All I have to do is pull out my fancy phone and post about what I am thinking about at that moment. If I want to ask my group of friends who are also on twitter whether they would like to go out to eat/movie/whatever, all I have to do is post my thought and wait for replies from those that do and those that don't. It's almost like texting 2.0.

Don't get me wrong, you have most of the same great qualities but you require a lot of up keep. Mind you, there is nothing wrong with being high maintenance for when I have something on my head and I don't want to be limited, I will always turn to you for you were my first.

I guess what I am trying to say is that eventhough I will not be writing the less important stuff on you anymore, that you are still going to be a huge part when it comes to the important and rather funny moments. Twitter will just be there for my random thoughts and for when I want to arrange a get-together with the people that also use twitter.

I know that I can't contain this Latin heat of mine but would you be okay with this threesome? Blog - "As much as this hurts me, I understand your weak attempt of an excuse for posting on twitter. Hell, I did some experimenting in college and wouldn't mind experimenting some more now *looking in Twitters direction*". Twitter - "I was raised on the dairy, bitch! *breaks beer bottle over her head and starts making out with Blog*". Me - "Ah! And boom goes the dynamite".
