In four weeks I start on the next adventure in my life, school. Yes I know for some that may seem like not a big deal but for me I am pretty nervous about it. August 29th starts the semester and it is approaching rather quickly as well as the end of the summer. When I was a kid(wow that sounded old) it use to feel like the summer went on forever but now that I am not waking up at 12noon and running up and down the block playing hide n seek and skating it just flies by. And it doesn't help that come mid July we are bombarded with back to school sales. Anyway, I think I more nervous about learning something new, I decided to go back for my degree as a paralegal. I thought about it alot I am excited that I am going to be doing something I actually find interesting and to some aspect exciting. I will be taking two evening classes, I hope the classes are full of working adults like myself I can't imagine having to be in a class full of kids straight out of high school, yuck!
Tonight I have plans to hang out with the bff, she bought some more tickets to a ghetto fish fry. I can't wait!
Also since it's almost the end of the summer I decided to skip out on some bills(yea yea yea) and treat myself and the kids to some fun things. Sometimes doing this adult responsible thing gets really old and tiresome, no worries I will pay for it later when I have to play catch up but who cares!?!

smh
Last week CHOP(children's hospital of Philadelphia) called me and asked if I wanted to participate in a study. Initially I was like ummm no, I work during the week and really don't have time but then she mentioned it starts at 530pm and it pays for parking and I will receive $50bucks. Well in that case sure I would participate. I know it seems a little cheesy but hay $50 is plenty pocket money for my wawa coffee runs in the morning to work. From 5:30 to 7pm not bad at all, the study is about the growth of children between the ages of 9 and 14. My oldest is 12 so yes I have plenty to say, you don't have to disclose any personal information they just want to hear opinions of the family. The study is tonight and I will be there ready to give my opinion and hoping that I can get more information on any other upcoming studies. They also invited the other parent and they to would receive $50 as well.
I have been talking/texting the guy I met at Ruby Tuesday's sometime back(he lives in Delaware, 30y/o) and the conversations are sometimes weird. For instance last Tuesday when I went out to Mad Mex he called when I was getting dressed, he asked if I wanted to go out to Warm Daddies the next day I said sure. He then asked what was I doing I told him getting dressed to go out, then he says OH well since your going out tonight then maybe we should go out Thursday. I told him no Thursday is no good for me lets stick with Wed, his whole mood change and he seemed pretty annoyed......why??
The next day I texted in the morning and he didnt' respond until about 4 hours later and his response was "morning", that's it. Dude whats your problem?
I decided to get some space and just not text/call, he calls and we have a normal conversation and I ask him is something wrong.(which I don't understand why he would call me if he got something on his mind) he says yes I'm just having a little money problem. I said oh OK well that's normal everybody go through that, he then says well between rent and child support he's jacked. Of course my initial thought is so why are you trying to date?? I said to him oh wow, those two things you can't budge on so maybe you need to find other avenues of money. I was turned off even more just because that was a little too much information and not something you really tell someone you just met. So I"m really not sure what now, talking/texting is cool but um that gets old after while if you don't add going out into the mix.
