So, this weekend was semi-okay. Not great, but also not the worst. Let me start on Saturday. First of all, most of you know I don't really go to church, and when I do, it's very rare occation. Yes, I went to church and had to get up early to go with my mom. As usual, it was quite boring, but the only good part was the service was short, which was a huge surprise, and we only stayed about a 1/2 hour.
After church, I went home and tried to take a little nap before going to work, but that didn't really happen. I ended up getting up and going to TJ Maxx to go buy a dress for my nieces birthday and a little outfit for my nephew/godson's Easter present. I ended up finding something decent, paid, and then went to work. I worked from 2 to 7, but man, was that annoying. In the first two hours, I had to make about four or five trips outside to load furniture in peoples cars. On top of that, it was pretty warm, so I was all sweaty and I felt stinky. The last three hours, though, just dragged. The only good thing was that my mom and Alex visited me.
After work, I went to Alex's house and he was waiting for me outside. He apparently had a surprise for me. He covered my eyes, and led me into his kitchen where I found a candlelit dinner! I swear it was the sweetest thing that any guy had ever done for me. He had wine glasses out, which he ended up filling with Pepsi and he had this plate that he had covered up. He ended up taking the towel off and showed me the Jimmy John's subs that he bought. It was so cheesy that it was cute!! Afterwards, we just slept for about 2 1/2 hours and then drove around from about 12 to 3 am. I had a great time with him and he made my night.
But, of course, the drama must begin. This morning I woke up and my two nieces knocked on my door. They told me to go see my mom and I replied that I would be there in a minute. I get into the kitchen and my oldest sister, Pauline, is there. My mom wanted to give my niece and nephew their presents from me and my bitch of a sister said that I was to go over to her house and drop off their presents there. My mom told her that it would just be a minute for her to go out to the car and get the bag. Of course, my sister made a big fucking deal about the shit and started bitching. I told her that I don't always have time to go over to her house and do all this shit because I have school and work and she just has school now. Well, she starts screaming and yelling at both my mom and I and my mom just gave my niece the shopping bag and Pauline ended up yelling about it while putting the kids in the van. Most of this happened outside in front of the neighbors.
I got upset about the whole thing and started crying and my mom got a terrible migraine and stated that she's done with my sister. She's sick and tired of her bullshit. I don't blame her, I'm sick of the shit too. In Pauline's eyes, her entire life is a burden, including her children, school, her husband and her family.
Anyways, let me move on. Alex picked me up a little later and we went to his sister's house for dinner. We stayed there for a while and then went back to his house and took a nap. We went to Dennys afterwards and that's about it.
Sorry for all the bitching, but I needed to get that off my chest. The only good thing that happened was with Alex and I am forever grateful to him.
