So many Topics... So little Time... AGAIN!!

Damn, there is so much I want to post but am trying to REMEMBER! Where do I start? OK ... Christmas Party on Saturday. Let's start there best place I think. Dena meet us at the job a little after 5pm, I was in the ladies room getting ready as fast as I could. The thought of not having a parking spot close to the event was making me a bit nervous. Look, I am a BIG girl, walking is not one of my pleasures. I had heard horror stories about how the parking was so bad ppl had to walk for blocks. Sorry but that wasn't going to happen to me. We would of been turning back around having a party in the lunch room at the job. After it seem like way too long to be driving we got there a little 7:00 pm and parking was excellent. We walked up and was greeted by faces I never seen before asking us for our names. Of course my name wasn't on the guest list. HA! Why should this event be any different from other event the company has. We seem to never be able to get things right the first time around. Now I was nervous that Donnie (my son) and Courtney (his girlfriend) would not be able to get in the event without me acting a bit south central or LBC (thought you all knew lol). No seriously, I was concern he would have an issue getting into the event. The girl at the desk who added my name to her list assured me he would have NO problems. I called him and gave him Dena's phone number just to make sure. he knew just want to say once he got there. We walked through the Ron Regan museum and while looking at pictures of Ron and Nancy, reading love letters, looking at Nancy's donated dresses, memorabilia of Ron's acting years, his governor years, and all the crap in between. All I could think about was the fact I am a Democrat and wth was I doing in here among all this bull shit. Then I thought why isn't there a museum for Bill Clinton, you would see me stealing items left and right. (SECURITY, THERE'S IS A BLACK FEMALE IN THE CLINTON BEDROOM EXHIBIT STEALING CLINTON'S BRIEFS) HA!! Hey it is what it is. Anyway we went downstairs because Denise had told me that is where she and Bill had been last year. I made sure I saved a seat for Victor, Jorge, Denise, Bill, Donnie, Courtney and Jeff. We sat down getting relaxed and listening to the band who wasn't really bad. Dena's phone rings and sure enough its Donnie telling me he cant get in and they cant find my name YET again. I was not happy about this and I knew I would have to go in front and EXPLAIN to them that it was their error that I was not listed. I told Dena and Dee what I was about to do and Donnie called and said he was in. 30 minutes later Donnie and Courtney were at the table. We sat and chatted for a while and he went and got food. Donnie came back with a nice salad plate which I was about to take a bite out of until Dee stopped me and told me the dressing was Alvarado ranch. My heart sank, I am SERIOUSLY allergic to avocado. You know so much so that my throat closes up, eyes roll back in my head and my heart starts going fast and if not treated I would go into cardiac arrest, a coma and probably die. Not the way I wanted to spend a Saturday night I tell you. But seriously my son had no idea and kept apologizing all night. I of course made a joke that if Dee wanted to get rid of me all he had to say was "baby eat your salad, its so good" I joke now but that would really had been a bad night. HA!! The food was not up to my taste tho, just didn't seem to have any real flavor to it. But all in all the night was nice tho, I really enjoyed myself. Denise and Bill got there and sat with us we all talked for a bit. Victor and Jorge came and we sat and conversed for a bit. I saw a few people who I ha vent in a while, Melba who works in Canyon Country store was there being her Melba self. I finally meet Erika dad, I had meet her mom a few weeks prior and thought she was the cutest and sweetest lady I have meet in a long time. Full of energy and life she was dancing with me and making jokes. She told me I should be her daughter, so I am now adopted. lol . La Tanya who use to work at with us and dated Jeff briefly came as well. She really looked nice she has lost a lot of weight and seem very happy. She is married now, and has a cute little girl who, if I can find a way I will put it on the website. Speaking of weight lost, Jeanette was there looking WONDERFUL!! A lot of people came to our table, but there were a lot I didn't see. I should of ventured out more and looked around but I was trying to wait for Jeff (he didn't should btw issues with his SUV). Victor and I did finally get on the dance floor after some coaching from him to me to get out there. A Jay Z song came on and my ass was OUT THERE!! lol I got a little pissed when I realize it was Rhiannon ass with "Umbrella". I still got out there and was dancing my ass off. I even saw my ex husband on the floor smiling ear to ear dancing looking like he had had way too many. If he is anything like he use to be he was probably drunk off his ass. He loves to drink and that part of him I don't see changing. Dee didn't dance, he had a drink that didn't settle well on his stomach so he didn't want it to come back up. ( EXCUSES, EXCUSES, X CUSES. We left a little after 11:00 pm and took the same route back home only instead of making rights, rights, rights, we made left, left, lefts. We got lost, yes LOST!! got off the freeway way too early and proceed to get back on the freeway to go the same way we went to the party. We realized this once we saw the signs telling us that the Ronald Regan museum was another left. I checked the gas to make sure we would not be on the 118 calling triple A. We finally got back to the job and drop Dena off and went on our way home. The back streets of the job was filled with teens in cars, and police outside them. Dee thought it may have been some kind of Christmas function. But you know me, my first thoughts was these little fuckas were street racing and it had come to an abrupt end. YEAH I said it! We got home and relaxed calling Jeff to tell him how much fun we had and he didn't. hehe! Unfortunately the rest of my two days didn't go as well. My blood pressure went UP and I just relaxed for the next 2 days. I did go on line to see if Dena was on so I could show her the house and have her add it to her landmarks. I stayed on all but 30 minutes and had to log off.

to be continue.......
