seven whole days and not a word from you

what up peeps? sure i almost got erased from a few lists.... well, bitches.... I'M BACK!!! well of sorts.... currently I am at my home away from home..... a friggin suitcase.... and no i'm not staying at the fabulous hotel derek.. but i am back to the the intercontinental.... NICE AND COZY....
let's start backwards..... how we got here..
today -
NEW CHARACTER INTRODUCTION:
willyoushytthefckup - a co-worker accompanying us on our trip... Normally it's the princess and myself... we get along famously.. this time in order to get the work done, we HAD TO BRING SOMEONE ELSE... she talks incessantly.. wait, she BUTTS into EVERYCONVERSATIONYOUAREHAVINGANDDOESN'T
KNOWWHATTHEHELLSHE'STALKINGABOUT. PLUSYOUHAVETOFIGHTHERTOFINISHYOURCONVERSATIONMINDYOUITDIDN'T
INCLUDEHER. after the fifty-fifth time, i just said out loud, "may i please finish?" uhhh she irks the hell out of me. and despite popular belief, most people don't irk the sit out of me, they annoy me.... she irks....
yesterday -
willyoushutthefckup complained all morning... VERY PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE THIS ONE IS.... if i heard she doesn't do well starting any moring beginning with 3 blank am one more time, i thought i was going to pry her mouth open and literally TAKE A CRAP IN IT... she was that full of shit. Try going to SLEEP AT 12:30 AM ONLY TO GET UP AT 4:00 AM. mind you, i hadn't had any sleep because.. well.. keep reading. anyway willyoushutthefckup also discussed not wanting to eat another heavy meal.. UH HELLO WE ARE WORKING IN THE 3RD AND 5TH WARDS IN HOUSTON TEXAS.... what else are we going to eat? Unless Superfcking Salad or Jason's Deli had opened up in Family Cafe, Frenchy's, or Jimmy Chan's you wasn't ging to get anything without some fatback until we got to our Galleria Area Hotel. aside from the constant chatter regarding how long we work... The first day is always about 14 hours.... Is it our fault you took a job that requires YOU TO TRAVEL and you live over 100 MILES from the airport? damn i wanted her to shut the fck up.. too much negativity and I was tired as hell.....
sunday-
i think i got 4 hours of sleep. i think... coach has us doing some top secret shyt and it's....... well, top secret.... but practice was....... top secret..
saturday -
i got home at 5:30 am from san antonio.. read poetry at dreams and free verse... a lot of New Orleans poets.... good night....... way to go TREY! Myra! we rep'd like a mofo... still got home at 5:30 to get up at 10:00... for some top secret shyt....
