WHEW..2006
2006 has definitely started out with a BIG BANG!The night before New Yrs Eve was awesome! Mark the 'Pirate' & I decided to hang out and have dinner & drinks. We did so & went back to his place to watch a movie, "Base-ketball". We fell asleep on his bed so I ended up staying til Saturday morning. He is so touchy feely, which was really nice and I know he wants things to work for us BUT both know we are better suited as friends. We agreed to remain good friends and let things take their course.
I partied in the New Year like no ever!! A group of us (about 10) met up at Stool's for drinks and had rented a limo for our excursion to Uptown Chlt to Liquid Lounge. We got up there around 11:15 and found our way to the Club. We were immediately escorted right inside (no line to wait on), paid no cover and drinks were on a friend of ours who knew everyone there, who got us in. We rang in 2006 w/ Champagne toast and many kisses from our group. It was the best night of my life, we danced and drank for basically free ALL night til closing. Guys were walking up to me constantly taking me to the dance floor and buying me drinks all night. I was so happy that I chose to go out & hang with my friends. We finally found a cab at 3:30 am and got back into Matthews. We partied all morning, with very little sleep and were drinking tequila @ 10am New Yrs Day! We made our way to Stool's for the Panther game by 1pm and hung out there til 4:30. I went back to my house and hung outat my place the rest of day-night. I was pretty tired and wore out from the last two night's festivities.
On Monday(I had off from Technocom) I watched Anna so we went to the mall, where i used my Gap gift card and we met "mommy" for lunch nearby Lowes Foods. We made a few more shopping stops and made our way back home & hung out and went to bed nice' n' early.
I had 2 interviews scheduled for Tuesday so I called out sick and stayed in bed til 10am. I got ready and met with two recruiting agencies that day, not feeling much better about my job search afterwards, just a bunch of bullshit as I see it. I had met someone recently off of yahoo IM so we decided to meet Tuesday night at his place. His condo overlooks the Bank of America Stadium & field where the Panthers practice. His bedroom has all floor to ceiling windows overlooking the skyline of Charlotte so we watched some College hoops there and drank LOTS of tequila, that is my liquer of choice (as you may have figured). We snuggled in bed, I ended up falling asleep & stayed at his place (no sex either) since I didn't want to drive home in wee hours of morning.
I woke up Wednesday morning and still, not wanting to go to work, called out once again. I took it upon myself to get up and leave his place early in morning when he left for work and I went to mall to buy some items @ Victoria Secret (thank you David for the gift card for x-mas). I got a lot of fun things and used the last of my Gap g/c too. During the afternoon, I received a call from a recruiter for a position in Southpark that would be a permanent job. I was super interested and learned more about the company and scheduled an interview for 8:30 am Thurs morning with the HR mgr. I went home and hung out the rest of the night at home, prepping for the next day.
Thursday am, I went to interview & REALLY turned on the charm. I was very impressed with the job and the benefits offered and by the end of interview, I was offered the Office Manager/Front Desk Admin position. It pays over $15/hr and 3 weeks paid time off right off. I was tickled pink and went on my way back to Technocom to give my notice. I would start my new job the following Monday..boy I'M EXCITED!!!
I worked hard for my last two days and cleared my desk the best I could and left happily on friday afternoon. A bunch of us celebrated my departure at Stools' after work and we drank up a storm. I ended up meeting a bunch more friends there and we stayed til closing. Afterwards we hung out with some friends' at their apt , soon leaving to go home & sleep off my drunkiness until late Saturday morning.
I hung out all day in the house and then go my nails done for my new job starting Monday. I went over to Davids (now from my old job) for his Birthday..Big #26 for him. I brought over a bottle of Yager & Redbull to do YagerBombs all night and we began the night out with a BANG!! It lasted for hours, while we watched the Patriots game on TV. I think we stayed up way late than usual but it WAS well worth it. We are very much in "sync" with each other and he doesnt have any complaints!! As you may already know, we been seeing one another since Sept, our first week at technocom and we totally clicked. We have seen each other pretty much every weekend usually Fri or Sat night. But up until this point we had NO STRINGS. I truly feel his is well-suited for me and we can be great together. He is warm, loving and has a lot of love and acceptance to give. I feel so accepted when we are together and only hope I am not going to get hurt by him. He is so happy for me with my new job and only wishes the best for me. He knows how unhappy I was there and needed something better
So now it is Sunday evening, just got back from watching the Panthers kick some major Giants ass (24-0) in football and having dinner w/a friend. We hung out all afternoon relaxing.
Well, I am very excited about starting my new job tomorrow and beginning a new journey in life. This job will give me the stability, experience and growth I truly have been seeking. This is a young upbeat office where I can grow and develop good work relationships.
I apologize for this was a long-winded entry but there was some catching up on my part to do. Sure hope I can keep better UPDATED more often than by the week..
Have a great weekend....
