I Told You....I'm trouble.....

Where to start, where to start? Memorial day weekend was nice. On Friday, Rev and I just hung out and watched Intervention. Drugs are bad y'all. They will lead you down a slippery slope of destruction. One man had a successful business as a chiropractor and then he lost it all by freebasing heroin. That is crazy. On Saturday, we did not do anything really. We went to dinner at Olive Garden and gawked at all the kids going to prom. Jesus, I'm old. On Sunday (the crux of this story), we went to a cook-out being held by Rev's uncle. My complaints? It started an hour late and there were bugs everywhere. Don't get me wrong, I know we can all run behind and yes since it was outside I knew it would be some bugs. But an hour late? In the heat? With flies and 'squitos abound? He had a real nice set up so it escaped me why he did not have the foresight to get some citronella candles. Finally Rev's Aunt Eunice came on the scene with some OFF bug spray and liberated us from the 'squitos. Aunt Eunice is gonna a get VIP seat at my wedding. I got a chance to hang with my mother in law to be. Let me preface this by saying, I LOVE my mother in law. I could not have asked for anyone better. From the first day we met, we clicked. She fell up in the spot with her cooler, and let the beer flow(thank God because I needed to be a little tipsy to deal with the heat and bugs). I had a good time.
Work has been an absolute beast. We are having a new file cabinet installed in my office and it has been the bane of my existence. Yesterday the man was drilling wood and my entire office was left covered with a layer of dust. Nasty.
On the wedding front, I had my first wedding-induced nervous breakdown. I have decided to cut cost, I would print my own invites and save the dates. My sister recommended to me that I use my old printer because if I use my Mom's and anything happens, she will be talking about that until one of us goes on to Glory. I broke out my printer and I remembered that I was missing something crucial. The install disk. Let me add here that the disk was probably lost during the Great Break Up of 2004. I won't even get into that here....I digress. So, I go through all these motions trying to download drivers and all this other mess and everything was just out of wack. I ended up sitting at my computer desk crying while Miss Beasley looked on. Rev was on the speaker phone trying to talk me down from the ledge. It was just a bad night. I emailed tech support and they are supposed to get back with me. It's in God's hands now.
To round out the stress in my life, my previously smooth chocolate skin is going through this breakout phase. I mean bad. I have this bad spot of acne sprouting up on my right cheek. It looks horrible. Every time I look in the mirror at it, my self esteem plummets another notch. I took some action today. I bought the Neutrogena Acne System, On the Spot treatment, and Astringent. I am attacking this with everything I have. I will let you all know my progress. Be Blessed!

P.S. Miss Von Kutiboots, if you are reading this.....thank you for recommending Amy Winehouse. "I'm No Good" is a dayum anthem!
