one of the banana chips in my trail mix just gave me a flashback of the lunchroom in kindergarten. lmao! that was interesting.
wanna kno something else interesting? another weird morning for good ol' foxx.... heard my alarm & completely ignored it until auntie came in & woke me up at 6:25....needless to say, i missed my usual bus & had to catch the later one. as i get on the bus who is the second person i see? buppi. wth?? last night i decided to go online & there was a response from him.....the first one was 'u obviously didn't read the message all the way thru' or something like that & i was like 'nah, i did...u were joking then?' and last night --> 'of course. it was a chain message i got from someone else & forwarded to you....why else after all that nasty stuff would it say 'i just saved a whole bunch of money on my car insurance with geico' (or something like that). whatever. point is, i wound up being nosey & looking at his pictures (which i'll admit, i do from time to time). it never fails tho...it's as if i can 'think' certain people (it doesnt only happen with him) into coming around where ever i'm at...crazy. anyway i looked up for a seat after i became impatient with the woman in front of me for taking too long to sit down (she also usually rides my 'regular' bus which is a little strange....) & who do i make eye contact with - buppi. he winked at me. i was caught off guard by this for a few reasons. first, it was confident & that is the first truly confident gesture i've seen from him since before we broke up. second....and i hate to admit this but....it was actually kind of sexy. third, that's the first time i've felt any inkling of attraction toward him in a very very long time....then the confidence was gone as he spoke & said 'what's up miss 'i lost my sense of humor'' in that timid, sheepish & slightly sad, (yet still garnished with a glimmer of hope) manner that i've come accostomed to with him.
for a split second i had decided to sit next to him & then i 'shook' my head (inside) & chose the empty seat in front of him instead. after i picked that one i thought perhaps it was still too close for comfort but it was too late & i was really making a big deal out of it for nothing. the biggest man in the US decided to sit next to me & i was scrunched for the rest of the ride. on top of that, my seat was broken & it kept reclining back a little until i caught myself every time the bus lurched forward. i think the driver was the same a$$hole that waved me off last night as i literally ran to catch the 5:40 & made it outside just as he was shutting the door. jerk. oh well.
i can't lie... i toyed with his energy....and it worked. may bring up to beast....we'll see. he doesn't kno much about buppi...not that that means anything...afterall, he talks about E all the time....then again, she's still in his life. whatever.
speaking of beast.....when i finally got up this morning i had a text from him.
beast ---> 'i'm sooooo anxious! ;o)'
me too papi, me too. but my reply was ' :o) xo ' gol
i still feel the need to resist....not completely & not all the time but with certain things & at certain times.... mostly texts i suppose since that's in writing & i kno other eyes might stumble upon them. plus i need to maintain my cool around him. if i don't, we're both going to fly off the handle & it's just not going to end well. one of us has to stay grounded & since i'm closer to the earth (literally, figuratively & spiritually), it might as well be me. gol ;o) not to mention the fact that i refuse to be like all the other chicks he's gotten himself so used to. they all tumble head over heels to land at his feet & worship him. sorry buddy, we're equals & u kno it.
hey KD!!(keepdreaming) --> i agree with u that i've definitely fallen as well.....and i'm scared to death about it!! hahaha and so i do act tuff (not sure i can help it...it's kind of my nature when it comes to alot of things). but there are other reasons too.....so many things that happened prior to my starting a blog here.....maybe i'll post some old entries from the site i used to use.... makes for some interesting reading ;o) aside from that, despite my age, i'm still relatively new to the dating game (only been 'on the market' for a year) & so i'm moreso stumbling my way thru the dark than feelng my way out & swimming thru the waters that supposedly hold so many 'fish'..... i'm getting there tho! ;o) definitely having fun along the way 2, which is certainly the most important part! gol the other issue i have is a conflicting knowledge that i tend to hurt people thru my selfishness, fickleness, and my insatiable appetite for variety and the fact that the one thing i HATE to do is hurt people. it makes me extremely cautious with certain people (i.e. beast)..... i guess the way i c it is, if i don't let them get so close, they won't be so hurt when i disappear....i think that probably sounds way more conceited than it was intended to. lmao either way, i don't like letting anyone too close as it is, let alone taking into consideration the other party's feelings & implications of letting me in close to them as well. in the words of pee wee herman 'i'm a loner, [KD], a rebel' ROFLMAO!!! i hope u've seen that movie (pee wee's big adventure) otherwise that's not going to make much sense....hahhaa i'm such a dork. gol btw, i am so happy to have 'met' u on here! :o)
my mother called me yesterday. first time i've heard from her in a long time..... left me a voicemail about my bday. she wants to kno if i'm free friday or saturday. --> nope. sorry. i'm not sure i'm even going to respond.....i might let greg or auntie give her the news. auntie also whined a bit when i told her i wouldn't be home friday night. ::sigh:: i kno i push things away alot....namely my family & men that are romantically interested in me.....but i think its probably the only way i can maintain my sanity (well as far as fam goes....the relationship part has to do with my being ready to handle that again after what i went thru with buppi, na & fulton).
my family (mother's side) is a bit nuts, if not fully dysfunctional & i spent alot of time getting my mind to understand what's 'normal' & what's not. i spent alot of time making sure i wouldn't grow up to inherit any of their bad traits. spent alot of time retraining my thought process & separating feeling from rationale. spent alot of time trying to understand them & why they do what they do. spent alot of time realizing i can't change a single one of them nor can i change the fact that they still are & always will be my family. spent alot of time learning to recognize both outside & self imposed guilt trips & i'm not about to let it all go to waste. it's really not as harsh as it sounds.....i promise. however, i would like to spend my bday weekend doing what i want to do...besides, it's not such a big deal.....shoot, even i forgot about it twice already!! hahahaha but they think it's a big deal & so i'm gonna get flack for it. oh well. my mother has absolutely no room to complain. for my aunt & grandmother i'll probably appease & try to make some time.
ok, i really have to get some work done now. haha i'll be back.
ps
i had a dream the other night (sunday? -- i think i was at beast's house) about bugs being 'born' (hatched? gross gol).... in the dream i was analyzing it as it was happening & deduced that it represented spring & the start of new beginnings. i think they were all different kinds of beatles. i'll have to look that up... i dream alot about animals huh....haha i love them :o)

You are such a kind and considerate person for thinking of others the way you do, and not wanting to hurt them. It sounds like you have been through a lot in your life, and have finally brought yourself to a place where you can understand yourself. Congratulations for that. It's not an easy task, as I'm sure you are aware. As I was reading, at first when I read you didn't think you'd call your Mother back, I thought, "Oh, you should call her back, she's your mom.", but then as I continued to read, I NOW understand WHY you want to keep your distance, and what it would cost you to put yourself back in that situation. So either way, I feel for the choice you will make. It's tough. I also want to say, you don't come across conceited at all. You come across completely honest, and trustworthy. I am very happy that I found you here on thoughts as well.
God Bless!
