My Granny
March 19, 2009…is one of the most amazing women ever.
I just got off the phone with her. I see so much of myself in her. She’s so tough and strong and has so much common sense. She’s compassionate and smart. She kills me with her country accent, though. Memphis, TN all day. LOL!
She was telling me about her acid reflux that she’s been dealing with. Then we started talking about my parents (*sigh*) and then we started talking about my grandfather who died before I was born. She always manages to drop a little knowledge on me…most times without intending to.
Love.Her!
In other news, I remember when I met up with Nina while in NY (seriously, do people look as cute as she did that early in the morning?! She’s looking all fresh-faced while I looked like Beowulf!) she said something along the lines of seeing someone on the train, thinking they’re attractive but then…never seeing that mofo again.
Well, this past Saturday I went to a MAC T.ournament game. It was Univ at B.uffalo vs. Univ of A.kron. I was there with D (he’s an Akron alum), his little sister and her boyfriend. We’re standing in line and I look over and see complete and total yumminess. There’s this guy standing there with some other UB supporters. He was tall and dark-skinned. He had a great body, the cutest beard and pearly white teeth with a gorgeous smile. I was trying hard not to look but he caught me. LOL! For the 10 minutes we were standing in line, he and I kept catching each other’s eye. He didn’t come over and say anything and I certainly didn’t (hello, D). We finally gained admission and because he and I were in different lines, we lost sight of each other.
*sigh* He was so sexy. What are the chances I’ll ever see him again? Pretty damn slim. It doesn’t just happen in NY.
In other other news, I’m sick and this is some bullshit. Everytime the weather changes, without fail, I get sick. I do appreciate the 60 and 70 degree days we’ve been having but this sore throat shit is for the birds. Oh well…let me crack open this OJ. Have a good one!
yup.. gotta love grandma’s. They keep it real.. no chaser.
You shoulda pushed D to the side and said outloud.. I think I know him. Then proceeded to get your mack on. Too bad you can’t stalk him like you do LeBron.
Dang…why didn’t I think of that???
Doesn’t that suck? Peepin a cutie with awkward baggage on your arm. I’m definitely feeling Tasha’s advice, though. You could’ve made that work somehow. haha.
LMAO @ awkward baggage
Don’t listen to them Monie! That is the path to hell!!! I do often find myself seeing fleeting desire. But I keep my mouth shut, mostly… Can’t have folk escalating encounters and me having to explain…
Grammas are the best. Wish I still had mine. And I know about that accent. The Wife has aunts who are down there right now. Transplanted from Arkansas of course…
The path to hell?! LOL! I didn’t know it was that serious…
Why would you want to see him again? Ain’t you all wifed up?
Nope…been single for a while…I really need to do a life update here LOL
Awww…I so love your Granny. Reading this made me think of my Granny…and how we barely talk these days…*sigh*. Nothing compares to knowledge delivered by Granny!!!
LOl @ 68! Dude-she’s already got her seat reserved for her down there!! LOL! Forreal though-you so could’ve made it work..I’m surprised you didn’t!!
Keep sipping on your rrrrrrrnge juice…hope you feel better sooooooon!
Maybe you should call her…? LOL @ my seat reserved in hell!
