Details!!!

I have none. I didn't go.
Ha!

We had set it up for Saturday. Friday night I went out, drank too much, my BFF sprained both her ankles somehow so we didn't do the charity walk that we were scheduled to do that morning. J.R. called me around 11 and asked me how the walk was. I told him that I didn't do it but that I still planned on coming. I told him that I had a few errands to run and that I'd call him back. Well, I called. And called again. He never answered. I chalked it up. He called me back later that night, around 10:30 pm. I asked him what happened and I can't even remember what he said. Some lame excuses about how he took my response about errands as me not really wanting to come visit. *eye roll*

So I asked him what was up with Sunday. I told him I'd go chill with my mommy for a while and then I could hit the road. He said that was fine. I told him I'd call him when I woke up, when I got to my mom's and then before I left.

I called him at 10AM. Talked to his brother but not to him. I called again at 1PM. Talked to his brother but not to him. At this point, I figured I wouldn't be seeing him. I was right. He didn't call me and I certainly didn't call him. Haven't heard from him since that other night. I'm not really sure if he'll call. He'll probably wait a couple days...give me time to cool off. Or if he really has balls, he'll call me tonight.

How do I feel about this? Well, I know J.R. and I know how flaky he can be. He probably made these plans with me knowing that he'd just ignore my calls anyway. To be honest, I'm pissed. I CANNOT STAND this passive aggressive, flake shit. Because I know him, I should have known better.

I won't stay mad for long. He doesn't deserve that. But all the excitement I felt about seeing him and rekindling that friendship...gone. If I happen to be in Columbus and he happens to be free, maybe I'll see him. But as of right now...eh.

And I know what you guys are thinking. Yes, I know it was Mother's Day. But their mother passed away over 10 years ago. I have visited him before on Mother's Day. And really, if he didn't want me to come or he wasn't prepared or WHATEVER, all he had to do was say that. I would have been ok with it.

Oh well.

Yesterday, when I was over my parent's house, my mother told me that she had a dream about my uncle who just passed. So far, me, my mom, my brother, grandmother and father have all had dreams about him. And in each one, he is cutting up in Heaven and saying over and over that he's ok.
I really do believe that loved ones who have passed visit you in your dreams so this was good news to me.

Jas, I will be in NY this weekend. On an oh-so-hood-rich shopping bus trip. I think our first stop will be Canal Street and then we hit some different areas. I know our last stop will be Sylvia's in Harlem. Feel like making a trip to the city and meeting your mostest favoritest blogger in person??? Email or text me...

:::

Rah, just an FYI, you can use that whenever you want. ; )
If you don't, I will divorce you.

One of my VA boys, Smurf, is in China right now for work. Imagine how freaked out I was when I read on Yahoo's homepage about the monster earthquake they had today. Thank God, he is ok.

:::

Yeah so...I got some jewelry this weekend. As a "gift". That I can't keep. It's so my style...I guess he was listening all those times. *sigh*

I see you blingin...too bad you're not keepin it though. And not to cause beef...but I'm rootin' for Boston...

No beef...

Jazzy said...

^5 to Charles for rooting for Boston.

Sorry Monie, but I really really reallllllly want the Celts to win!! Too bad they lost this damn game though! boooo

Monie...this guy sounds like a loser. Please don't waste your time. If/when he finally feels like calling...put that flaky fool on igganigganoe.

Believe it or not he does "deserve" your anger. This is more than passive aggressive flake shit...this is a dude who obviously does not respect your time and he doesn't appreciate how much you wanted to connect with him.

He's a loser. He is.

I'll shut up now.

OH...I'll shoot you a note about this weekend.

Rashan Jamal said...

Go Cavs!!!

I'm trying to decide if I should tell you what I really think or shut up. Until I decide, I'll shut up.

Is that an engagement gift? Da hell?

I see you.. I'll use it, don't wanna get divorced.

stephanie said...

OK Monie, not gonna explain the jewelry? You holdin' out girl!

Monie said...

@ c: LOL! Ok, no beef. But dammit, don't come in here rootin for the stupid ass Celtics! Ok...sorry. LOL!

@ diva: You are right. Remember what I said in that email? If he turns out to be a loser, at least I'll know that and I can move on. Please believe that Monie is keeping it pushing. LOL! He probably won't call and I'm cool with that.
GO CAVS!!!!! What the f is all this Celtic love???

@ rah: Please, please tell me what you really think. I'm a big girl, I can take it. To be honest, the situation was a lesson learned. At this point, all I'm really concerned about is that he's doing well and his family is doing well. If I don't talk to him again, that's ok. I guess I have some of those faucet tendencies too. LOL!
Go CAVS!!!!!

@ steph: Um. LOL! It was given to me but I can't keep it. Uhhh...all I will say is that I'M NOT ENGAGED.

Eb the Celeb said...

UM EXCUSE ME... why you cant keep it?

Didnt yo mama tell you that its rude to give back something that someone gives you...

thee modern isis said...

Hmmmmm...

LMAO@ Gloria sitting right down when Lebron barked at her. Priceless.

She's a black mama, when you see your baby being hit you snap. I'm not mad at her.

RISE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hmmm@ this ring situation

anonymousnupe said...

What if Bron has like seriously smashed into his moms?!

Monie, y'all (women) truly are gluttons for punishment. Y'all foster this kind of reaction from men and bring it on yourselves. Every time you let us off the hook for something utterly disrespectful and stupid you denigrate yourselves and signal to us that we can get away with pretty much anything.

Nina said...

Oh...so u gonna forget your fave female blogger? Chick, if ur in NYC...hit me! afrosupastar@gmail.com

the.spot said...

So far, me, my mom, my brother, grandmother and father have all had dreams about him. That's deep.

Like the jewelry. Why can't you keep it? Morals? LOL.

Also, LeBron got nasty with it last night.

Don said...

Like the ring, Monie. I wouldn't give ish back.

LeBron was in the building last night I see. He aight. LOL.

La said...

I'm confused as to why we can't keep it...

Boo to that flake shit. I hate that. Strap on a pair and tell me you don't wanna see me. I'ma big girl. I'll live.

Monie said...

@ eb: The way I see it, if I'm not engaged, I don't need to keep an engagment ring, no?

@ tash: Girl, so much...my brain cannot process. LOL!

@ nupe: Please tell me you did not come in here with that reckless shit. Let me take that paintbrush out of your hand...the one you are using to paint that oh so broad..."yall women". Please tell me how I'm a glutton for punishment, please tell me how I fostered this reaction, please tell me how I let him off the hook, how I am denigrating myself and how I'm letting him get away with anything.
You know you are my dude and I could prolly be cool with this comment if this type of situation happened more than once. J.R. showed me that he's not ready and I am keeping it moving.

@ nina: We are only there for one day...Saturday. Will you be free?

@ spot: LOL, please see my reply to eb.

@ don: I can't believe how many people are saying I should keep the ring...

@ la: I can't keep it if I'm not engaged. LOL! And yes, SUPER BOO to the flake shit.

Diddy Bop said...

well since you're not keeping it, and it is my style as well, i have an empty ring finger that needs a companion.. just sayin :D

come to philly next!

Sha Boogie said...

Why can't you keep it?! Lies! Lies!..lol
