I cried. Not a lot but enough, lost my voice and screamed and ran around my house.
I cried for Grandpa George, Grandpa Otis, Grandpa Joseph and Grandma Jones. I wish so badly that my grandfather (George) was still here to see this, I would love to hear what he'd say.
Wow, a black man, is our president.
Now I am going to watch Fox news to see if anyone is crying.

I like this because, I get to learn different things from my elders. So why, for the life of me can't I interalize the advice of my mother...
If you want to keep something a secret... TELL NO ONE.
There are certain situations that cannot be helped. Like if you learn so not so pleasing news in the presence of others, there is really no way that you can change the fact that they know. But, I would like to think that they would have enough respect for me and the delicate situation to keep their mouths shut... but maybe that is asking for too much.
I think that if I want my business spread all over the world I would get a webpage, make a YouTube video and post it for all the world to see.
But maybe I am expecting too much, and like the title of this post states, I should really know better by now.

The pluses of the weekend.
**My 88 dollar fine was reduced to 12 dollars @ the library. ( YES!) I have to admit that I really missed by library privileges. So that was really cool.
**The BBQ @ Teri's was wonderful. Because Teri always cook massive amounts of food, I had a plate to take to work with me. The conversation is always so enlightening when Teri is around.
** Playing goldfish with my 3 y/o niece
** Getting a positive critique from my professor in my creative writing class. ( I am struggling with finding my voice in all of my writing so this was really appreciated.)
** Boston is going to win the championship @ home. I really wanted them to win in LA but, I also want them to make it home safely so, the win will be in Boston.
There were some sucky things about this weekend, but you know what... I won't even focus on them.
I hope that everyone has a wonderfully positive day and work week.

So even though yesterday started out to be the day from hell. It ended rather nicely. Of course, everyone is talking about Obama clinching the Democratic nomination. I am in disbelief, I didn't think it was possible. I only wish that my grandfather would have been alive to see this. This man fought tirelessly for civil rights, I know that this would have touched his heart. I think that this moment in history would've illustrated that his struggle wasn't in vain.

I was excited to go out to Black Pearl, and saddened to see that yet another venue had a total disregard for a night. Long story short, the owners didn't want to do the poetry thing anymore and didn't tell the organizers until he tracked them down. That was just foul.

I went to dinner with

tericolschroederjt and Missy ( I don't know her user tag) I learned that eggplant fries are delicious and they go well with embarrassment. ***************
I heard a poem last night that honestly had me in tears, my favorite line:
"It's only half time, put your helmet back on and put the gun down."

3 days until my trip. *smirk*

The funniest thing that I have heard all week:
(I know that it is only Tuesday)
Son: Dada, can we stop at Graters for ice cream?
Dad: Do you have underwear on?
Son: No.
Dad: Well then no, we can't stop for ice cream.
I don't know why, but that brought me to tears.
