Exciting, and NOT so exciting news...

OK... so in an effort to keep up with this thing... I will write whenever I am winding down my day (or week depending on how hectic it is.) So earlier this week I get a friend request on MySpace from a photographer/ promoter. He asks if I wanna do a club promotion shoot next weekend. He then tells me that it pays $750.00, and I get to keep the clothes!! Heck yeah!! I would have done it for either or... but BOTH, that's a bonus!! I call him up and discuss the shoot, and I mention that if I can get off work Saturday at a decent time I would love to do it... I kinda gripped about my job (a little.) He then asks if I have ever done secretarial/ receptionist work. I say yeah for a while, and ask why. He needs someone to answer phones and help with books at his other job. So I am in the process of getting all that info and prolly about to turn my notice in at the bank. So I would be answering phones at the detail place, help doing books for the promotions... AND work them too!! WOW!!! I am kinda starting to like this town!

Also, on another note... I think I am becoming immune to Patron. How sad!! I went to a friends the other weekend, had a shot and about 5 margaritas... NOTHING!! So this past weekend we all got together again. Shot, 6 margaritas, and jello shots... NOTHING!!! WTF?! How can this be? I didn't really drink the last few months, so I shoulda been passed out by glass #3... maybe its time to move on to another kinda liquor. But i so love patron!! Will I ever find something to replace it??

.....*stay tuned*.....

I can't sleep... I can't put it down!!

Ok, I know it's been almost a month since I have been on here... I am alive. Been very busy with stuff, i.e. my Blackberry. No, I still don't know all the features and every single thing it does.. but I am learning. It seems to have taken over my life.. I am texting, sending Blackberry messages, playing with the ring tones (which I downloaded like 6 in 30 mins one day), getting on my navigation, and BRICK BREAKER!!! Ohh... I cant put it down! Steph, I am coming to see you soon so I can learn MORE!!

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I did... lots of family time, then lots of partying. So here is a really short version of my new year: Met a guy (no surprise there) who turned out to be a total prick (again no surprise). Me, him, and some of his friends went to Huntsville for New Years Eve.. that was FUN!!! We went to this club and had the VIP section, and drank and danced... and drank some more. We finally got back to the hotel about 3 am... I had to be back in Decatur at work by 8! All I can say is thank goodness for those 5 hour energy shots, Mt Dew, and Starbucks!!

So, "prick boy" and I hung out a few times after all that. We were supposed to go to his nephew's party the other weekend, but he had "alot of stuff to do" -- yeah right. So when I get there, alone, everyone is asking me what's going on with us... I tell them we are "just talking." Now at this point, I do know that he has lied to me about some minor stuff, and I can't quite let it go. His friends are telling me that they don't understand why he is acting like this, blah, blah blah. Then one of the guys says that he talked to "prick boy" and he said I was his GIRLFRIEND!! Huh?? Really? How's that possible when we barely talk? I tell the friend that we are NOT dating, NOT exclusive and I am in NO means his girlfriend! I think I got that point across. (I hope!)

So his nephew's wife and I become decently good friends... we text back and forth, hang out some... So she sends me a text today asking if she can "interest" me in something?? "Ok", I bite, "what?" Well it seems that one of his friends is somewhat interested in me and wants to get to know me better. I said ok, and we agree to all 4 hang out tomorrow night. I have decided to STOP looking and just let things take their course... for once! Haha!!

So, it's now barely the 2nd week of the new year, and already I am on boy #2... New Years Resolution... If i get up to boy #5... STOP DATING for a while!! Or, become a nun. Hey it could happen, betcha never thought you'd see a black president... anything is possible! :)

OHH!!! And I get to go see Nickleback, Seether, and Saving Able in Nashville next month!! Yeah!! At least there is something good to look forward to!

Quick check-in

Ok, sorry, I didn't get to post anything last night... had a quick trip to Tuscaloosa! So, what has been going on with me??? Where do I begin? Umm... well we lost our manager at work, so I have to take the other set of "manager keys"... the only good thing about that, is I don't have to work with that assistant manager!! So basically work sucks more than ever now... but I will get through it.

Dustin left to go home today... THANK GOD!!!

I went to a Christmas party the other night, my "date" was an older guy that works for one of the radio stations up here. We are just friends, so I decided "what the heck, go have a good time." Well, I got a call from him a few hours ago... his boss(es) basically accused him of bringing an escort!! WTF?!?! ME?? Seriously?? Long story short, they said it looked that way b/c he could never get someone like me (their words.."young and good-looking") to date him!! OK, I admit, I laughed when he told me this... but I am sure HE didn't. Oh well... what can I say?

FINALLY!!! All my Christmas shopping is D-O-N-E!!! Now, time to sit back, relax, then get up and start wrapping!! Haha!

I know there is alot more I could get into, but right now... I cant. But, let's just say, things are going good for me... and I will update you when I can! ;)

Date like a MAN, so you don't get played like a ...

Ok, so as I said before I am kinda, sorta, dating this guy Dustin. Yeah its great cuz he is leaving in January and we can't get attached and all emotional. Well one slight change in those plans, maybe two.

I was sitting in his hotel room the Monday night and some how the word "feelings" came up. He asked if if I am still ok with "casual dating." I look at him with all honesty and say, "I can date like a man... no feelings, no commitment." He laughs and everything is cool. A little while later he goes to take the trash out, and Jeremy, his friend, says that he is so glad to be back in town. (They went to Ohio for Thanksgiving.)
"Really? Why? This town is dead."
"Because I swear if I heard your name one more time over the weekend I was gonna go insane!"
Huh?? Casual dating, right?? Well when I went to leave Monday night, Dustin gave me a big hug and said that he was glad he was back and that he missed me. Ok, then. Why do I not see this turning out like I thought it would?

So Tuesday night I head out that way (because seriously there is NOTHING to do in this town.) Well Dustin tells me that instead of them leaving in January, they are only gonna be here for about 3 more weeks, their job they are doing is having lay offs or something. He just found out today, and he didn't wanna tell me unless he knew for sure.
"Oh, ok." I reply.
"Well we should be back in about 4 months or so."
I nod, still watching TV.
"Do you not have anything to say?" he asks.
Really?! What do I say? This is casual, or supposed to be. I look at him and say, "What should I say?" Jokingly I almost say -"Don't go!"
"I don't know. That you are gonna miss me and we need to keep in touch until then."
"Ok, I'll miss you, stay in touch." Good enough? Guess not, he mopes and is acting really weird. HELLO!! This was agreed upon before our first "date." You are only here for a short while, we don't get serious, we don't expect anything outta the other, this is NOT a relationship. How come no one can follow these rules? Well, we will see how things play out...


So, today is my birthday. I have been putting bets on who would call, who would forget and who would be the first to call me. I lost that last one!! At 3:45 this morning my cell phone goes off... it's Adam. Now, we dated really briefly, and then we just never could get on the same page as far as timing.
Well he is slightly intoxicated. He thinks this is a good opportunity to tell me exactly how he feels about me. You know the saying, "a drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts"? He says that he really wants to be with me, he could see himself with me long term, and all that. Surprisingly, it's nice to hear. I remind him of the distance between us and that it's not fair to either of us to try this... long distance relationships never work out. Then he says the sweetest thing (which would normally send me running for the hills) "I will wait for you. You will see, we will be together."

So I start thinking today --what's wrong with him? NOT like that! Just what has been holding me back from dating him? Other than I was dating Matt before and now I moved away, there is nothing. So?? I do have a chance to maybe go back to Tuscaloosa with my job... do I take it? Now I moved up here for a guy (big mistake) but if I move back, well it's not because of him - that's where my family is. Do I even think about it? Should I try? I need to ponder this one a little more...

Rammer Jammer....

OMG!!! We won!! Alabama defeated Auburn... in Tuscaloosa! We ended their 6 year win streak and their 6 win streak in Tuscaloosa!! ROLL TIDE ROLL!! The best part of the game, in my opinion... Auburn was going for a field goal - they kicked it and made it. Nope not good, there was a time out called before the snap. Go job Saban... so lets try again. Snap, kick... BLOCKED!!! That was their ONLY chance to score all game!! A shut out... 36-0!! I know next week we will be the underdog, but we have been there before. This is the year... undefeated season and National Champions!!



Ok, next! I know a while back I said I would get to the Dustin topic.. here goes. (from the beginning...) He opened an account with my back a few weeks ago. Trina, who works with me, told me a really cute guy came in, blah blah blah. So she was talking about him and that he is only up here for a short time, construction work, and that I should talk to him. Umm, no thanks... I don't want or need a guy right now!

So a few days pass and he comes back in.. I start talking to him, well actually harassing him because he was hungover -- its fun when people are hung over and don't like loud noise!! Anyways, I ask him and his friend if they ever found anything to do in this crap town. So, he writes his number down and says to call if we find something to do. WE? Ok, so was that for me? For me and Trina? Who?? I take it anyway. The next day, a Saturday, I am trying to find something to do (it was Bama's off week) so I decide to text Dustin. So, this process takes a while, I am a chicken. I finally write, "This is Kim form the bank whats up?" dang it took 10 mins to send that?! So long story short we decide to go to Chili's and have a few drinks and watch some football game. Well $100.00 and plenty of drinks later I am ready to go. No more details... :) Nothing too bad though.

So I talk to him everyday since then.. This is perfect I decide. Not because he is so nice, and cute, and a love hanging out with him... but because he leaves in January!! I know that sounds bad, but I really don't want anything serious, and we talked about that. So, if I fall for this guy... I am retarded... I know that he is leaving and I know when. We will see how things go... but for now I am having fun! And that's all that matters!


Oh yeah... one more thing... READ Twilight!! I started reading it the other night and I am totally addicted! cant wait to see the movie!

Open a can of...

Well, where do I begin?? I didn't have the "bachlorette" party like I planned... people kept bailing on me. But no need to worry, I will have another one soon, or go out for my birthday.

Next topic... oh yeah... CT! Yeah, you can roll your eyes, I am. So I haven't talked to him in over a week... until today! Crap! He called while I was working and asked that i call him when I got off... something about "we" needed to clarify some things and also that his wifey wanted to ask me some questions. Umm. as delightful as that sounded (*sarcasm*) I said I would think about it. Well I got off work at 4:30 and came home and... took a nap! Yeah calling was NOT high on my priority list. So about 6:30 he called me, and I was about to hop in the shower... so -ignore. Not 10 seconds later there's a knock at the door. Are you kidding me??
Yep. its him. I open and ask what he wants... he starts talking, but all I hear is blah blah blah... something about the wifey wanting to ask me questions that only I can answer, blah blah, and she wants to know if you're pregnant? HUH?!?! Umm, NO! He then says that she is in the car outside... so now what? I go talk to her? No thanks... I really need to get a shower cuz I have to be some where really soon. I tell him that I am really busy and cant talk right now. I also said that if they are gonna work things out, then THEY need to work things out, I am not trying to get back in the middle of this crap. I told him that I was also tired of going thru him with her, if she wanted to talk to me for her to call or email me, but right now I am running late and have to start getting ready. He leaves, and I grab my phone to make 1 quick call... as soon as my friend answers.. BAM, I have a call coming in. Its from his phone, now I don't know what part of call me LATER, I am busy was interpreted into "call me ASAP".. so I ignore it. I finish my shower and finishing getting ready. I head over to see Dustin (that's another story in itself) and when I pull up my phone rings again.

I answer it with full intentions of saying "I am busy and cant talk please read the letter I sent to you on MySpace.
"Hello?"
"This is *the wife*, and I think its really f-ed up that you are not woman enough to at least come talk to me..."
END CALL

Ok, that's why I sent then (her) a message... it said that I was not in the mood to talk; I had had a bad day, and I was scared that if I talked to her I would come across bitchy- which I didn't want to do. So I asked her to either give me a day or 2, or message me back. But, NO! I was furious... that was one of my concerns... I told CT that if she called and was going to get an attitude, I would NOT talk. So, if she wanted to get rude, she had better start typing. WTF?!?!

I am trying really hard to get over this whole thing and move on... but its really hard when they call and stop by for a "visit." I am so over this... why cant they be? I understand that I kinda got myself in this, but seriously, when can we all move on with our lives??

Ok, I will fill you in later if there is any MORE drama... just keep your fingers crossed that this is the last entry on this situation! But there will be more of the Dustin thing, maybe tomorrow!
