Thursday, Sept. 04, 2003 - 6:53 p.m. last night ricky gave me the first part of my birthday present. he said it's two parts...the first one is something i would like, but wouldn't get myself. the second part is something i would love and would most definitely get myself. well, i think my present was actually a three part thing. see, i opened my present, or rather took it out of the bag and it was the movie 'dazed and confused.' just so you know, if you didn't already, parker posey is my absolute FAVORITE actress (please don't tell me you don't know who she is) and that's one of her movies. i had never seen it before. now i own it. i will go beside my favorite movie...party girl! anyway, after i saw my present, i was happy and ricky took me out to dinner at nikita india. i love that place. someone today mentioned i would have been up on time had i gone to bed at a decent hour...oh please, whatever. i told them my story. ricky and i were at my place by 8:00p.m. we watched the movie and that was over before 10:00p.m. then i made him watch the smurfs...we missed the snorks. after that, i flipped through some channels. that was my last thought. i fell asleep on ricky's chest and the next thing i knew, it was 1:30a.m. and ricky was gone. that's been me the past few nights, though. passing out and not knowing it...but the other times were due to alcohol. i guess i was just tired last night. who knows. well, i have to go think of something to prepare for dinner tonight. i have a guest...just jody. no one special. kamilah is in town now. she just got here this morning. i have no idea when i'll see her, but it will be soon, i'm sure. my friend is coming up to take me to lunch on saturday and that night my parents are taking me out to dinner. i'm psyched b/c i haven't seen my parents in about a month and i'm getting kinda home sick. but i'll be alright...i'm just happy i'll finally get to see them ON my birthday. well, this is the last entry i will write as a 26 year old. it seems kinda grim. this hasn't exactly been the best year of my life, but you live and you learn. i've lost a lot of important people this year, but at least they knew i loved them as i knew they loved me. i'm thinking positive about 27...it'll be something new. i still can't believe 10 years ago at this time, i was just entering my senior year. seems kinda odd, you know. oh well. all joking and everything aside, what have i learned at 26? that you should really value everyday that you have on this earth and cherish your family and friends b/c they are precious and can't be replaced. and that, diaryland, is something i willingly pass on to anyone who is ready to accept it. as always, peace, love and unity. see ya at 27! |
