The Road To Many Destinations
I think I have come to a crossroads in life and I am EXTREMELY confused as to which decision is the best for me. I have struggled with this for the past few weeks and am having a hard time pinning down the pro’s and con’s of each choice. There are a few unrelated factors that are pushing me in a particular direction, but I am not thrilled about letting those factors have such a powerful influence on a decision that will affect the rest of my life in a major way. I have asked for opinions and thoughts, but at the end of the day I am the one who will be living with myself after the decision has been made and need to ensure that I am making the right choice.
Life can be so difficult at times. What happened to the days when I didn’t have a care in the world…oh yeah, those never existed, there has always been a care in the world in my life. I really wish “adult life” could start at 30 rather than 23. At times I feel like I missed a period in my life, the period where I just sat back and relaxed and was not CONSTANTLY stressing over something. I busted my butt in school trying to get good grades only to be hired at a job where I work between 50-70 hrs per week. Is this REALLY what it’s all about or am I missing something here?
On top of that add my living situation. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with a weed addicted roommate who happens to love the Jamaican persuasion. (I guess that’s killing two birds with one stone..girl who loves weed dates Jamaican man…I guess she is getting the best of both worlds, seeing that her boyfriend is supplying two “goods”….humgh…whatever) Ok so lets make sure I lay out all the facts:…so there is the roommate (Issue 1)…who has a boo (Issues 2). Now Issue 2 wouldn’t be an issue except for the fact that I’m two seconds from telling the boo to come up off of $50 because he sleeps here about 4 nights out of the week. Issues 3 happens to be that boo has a 3 year old pit bull who also started staying here (bringing his personal monthly housing expense to $105 ($50 for him $40 for pets $55 for pets over 40lbs). Issue 4 is that I wake up to the sounds of Ghostface Killah or Shabba Ranks at any given morning around 7am…yeah…I can’t believe I go through all of this either. I don’t know whether to wake up with a smile on my face because the Lord blessed me with another day or grab a 40 Glock and a face mask due to hypnopaedia (for the record…I’m a HUGE fan of rap or Gangsta Rap as the “majority” calls it but not before 12pm). Issue 5 happens to be a second dog (only discovered this one today) which happens to be a boxer (research conducted today shows that both dogs (pit bull and boxer) happen to be on the top 10 list of most dangerous dogs..why isn’t that swell news). Oh, I almost forgot that would bring boo’s personal monthly housing expense to $160.
With all of that said, I have an appointment tomorrow at 10am to see an apartment. I am doing a resounding *evil voice laugh* in my head right now of the likes of Cruella Deville. I’m waaaaaay too grown to be dealing with this mess. And I have no problems being proactive about changing the circumstances of which I am currently forced to endure. I will keep you guys updated on the living situation.

LMAO!!! Girl you have got me rolling! This is hilarious! The thing that got me was the “50 for him $40 for pets $55 for pets over 40lbs” line. Whew! HILARIOUS!
WHAT IN THE HELL?!?!? I didn’t know you had CARNIVAL at your spot every monin’! LOL! ……Hyno….What in the world?!?!? girl you know you teach me something new all the time. I had to look that one up! GREAT ONE THOUGH! A word that I can add to my vocab, that is continuously growing, thanks to you.
WOW! Hilarity all the way around. I can’t wait for you to get out of there myself. Although your living situation provides some of the BEST material, I am ready to see you get out of there. Let me know when you’re ready to haul them mattresses again! LMAO!!!!
