so friday was my last post. that gives me FOUR days to catch you up on!! check me out.......
SATURDAY
can't quite say the new thing i tried today. but it resulted in great convo lol
not everything is for yous guys to know! lol
SUNDAY
let's begin with.... my food doesn't have a face. ever. lol for the first time, i tried food from Nagasaki, a west indian restaurant not too far from my house. we got jerk chicken and pork, rice and beans, wee bit of cabbage, and these babies
yeah. lol so, the guy ive been dating eats the whole freakin thing. eyes, feelers and all. then he'll just spit out the shell for the most part...... i want to gag at just the thought of this (again) but, i try not to yuck other peoples yummies. being that this "try something new" thing is a bit new in itself, i compromised with myself and decided to take baby steps. i started by picking one (the only one) without a freaking face. lol BIG step. next took off the shell which had the legs n crap all attatched (insert shiver here), cleaned it out a bit, and i was good to go.....
took a bite
didn't like it.
lol i'd NEVER seen shrimp w faces! who knew! i don't think i knew what an actual shrimp look like. so today was a double whammy. one. this, dana, is what an actual shrim looks like. two. i don't like them with the head attatched.... even if i unattatch the head lol
MONDAY
today was quite a lesson in disguise. didn't see it coming. started out with me about to paint my toe nails. simple task. the guy im dating asked me to give him a manicure.... kinda. all i did was cut and shape them really (about time too lol). anyway, for like the first three nails, im cutting as little as i can with each snip. im scared as all begezus that im gona cut too low and hurt him. the whole time im cutting and bout to break a sweat, this guy is fallin asleep. and it hit me. he has absolute faith in me. he's not worried about me hurting him. he trusted me. now, yeah, it sounds insignificant, and unimportant, but think about it. how often do people trust you with something that you yourself doubt yourself on? honestly, it didn't hit me until today. initially, it was just a new experience. doing a guys nails. cute. but i learned so much more from it. it turned out to be a life lesson -- i should trust myself more. im not gona screw up as many times as i think i will. sometimes it pays to just let go and listen to your instincts. they're right a lot of the time! who would have guessed, that cutting someone's nails turned into a learning experience where i was able to learn something about myself?
today's lesson: trust yourself, someone else trusts you.
TUESDAY
cosmos!!!
i've had this cosmo mix in my liquor cabinet for who knows how long.
never cracked it open. don't know what gave me the push, but i went for it. they turned out GREAAATT!! lol today's experience wasn't anything spectacular. but i must say, i did enjoy it. not big on cosmos in general, but, i think ima a fan now lol
