I went out last night, yes it was a school night, yes it was a Thursday and yes I had to work in the morning. It has been awhile since I have gone out with the gang alone, usually I'm accompanied by my boyfriend but last night it was just me. No one to hang on to, no guarantee of a conversation, no security, just you and yourself. I felt a bit out of the loop. I need to jump in again and stop just getting my feet a little wet.
I was the original dancing queen back in the day, the girl who could should up to a club or bar by herself with no issue and cares. Times have changed and I have changed, no tengo esa confiansa en mi mismo para ser como era antes. Como quiero ser esa dancing queen que salia del club cuando amanacia la luz del dia. Donde se vue esa chica?
I have been told that my wild side has become so reserved. I'm not a prude but that I'm hiding. I will agree that I have been hiding myself, things have changed.
There are many things I want to do with myself. The first go out with the girls and feel comfortable having a good time. I want to travel to Hawaii, why should I have to wait for my honeymoon? I want to be more independent and secure with myself.

What a perfect night
After getting off of work on Monday, I headed home thinking of a perfect way to head to Ravinia on the cheap. I didn't want to pay $7-10 for parking and I was broke anyway so I came up with the following... I parked my car at the Ravenswood Metra stop and took the Ravinia Express train which left at 6pm
Once I boarded the oh so crowded train I found a seat and prepared my $3.00 in change to give to the conductor. Well 4 or 5 stops later we arrived at Ravinia and no conductor ever came by to collect $ Awesome, I thought this is the 2nd time ever I get on the Metra for FREE! YAY!
Once at Ravinia I was lured by the female giving out FREE "Time out" magazines YAY! I was actually going to buy that issue but didn't have to now. Okay once I got over the free shit portion of the day I scanned for a nice spot to plop my genuine Mexican blanket on and wait for the 4 amigos. Soon after they arrive with the cooler filled with sandwiches, wine and BEER!
This was one good night!

Never ending cultured weekend
I had a great weekend. On Saturday I headed to the Irish American Heritage festival (no , I'm not Irish but my boyfriend is) We chatted with friends and enjoyed some great music. We then headed to Chief O'neils on Elston (still trying to keep the Irish thing going) We left a bit after 2 in order to avoid the L.A.T.E Ride bikers.
I dropped his butt at home he wanted me to stay over but I kinda wanted to see the biker pass by my house so I left. It was almost an eternity to get to my house early Sunday morning. Foster was blocked off and the cops were not allowing anyone cross on Kedzie, I mean come on I was 2 blocks from my house. So I had to get creative I took some side streets and went the wrong way down a street(Hey it was 4 in the morning no one is out)Finally making to Kedzie and sat for about 5 minutes waiting for a pockect of no riders to cross Kedzie and finally made through. As I sat there I was a bit envious of those rider I wanted to do the L.A.T.E. ride. I did the ride 2 summer ago and had a great time once we were able to pass the congestion downtown, maybe next year.
Sunday BJ and I rode to the lake to see our all time favorite band (J/K) General Patton and his privates. They were playing for the Peace fest/Weed fest had a good time. As we sat enjoying the show 2 chicks came up to use to ask if we would take a survey and it paid, no it wasn't a sex survey but and actual study. The chicks said they were from the U of I campus focusing on Latinos, exercise and the lakefront.
In order to get paid we have to wear some sort of monitor that records your activity and calories burn for 7 days send it in and collect a check, that's it.
BJ's friend Smooth D came by and convinced me to jump in the lake with the clothes I was biking in at first I declined but as I saw how much fun BJ and smooth D were having I jumped in and enjoyed it. I loved it, yes it was a bit crazy , crazy for my standards but it was FUN. At the lake while waiting a bit to dry off we had some elotes con todo including chile. Yum Yum !
After we rode to the Old town school of Folk Festival on Lincoln Ave and Montrose.
BJ and I had a dilemma It was 5 bucks to get in and we were down to our last 5 bucks so we scanned the area to see were the weak points of the festival were aka we wanted to sneak in, and found NOTHING. We sat near the festival entrance debating if we should pay our last 5 bucks or get something to eat and there a weak spot in the fortress the guy who monitored the exit stepped away for like 3 minutes and BJ and I looked at each other and decided to break in and we made it. BJ then had another dilema buy a beautiful necklace with a school or eat she made the right choice eat , she had something creek and I had a pina colada for $4. I still have a buck in my pocket. Well we went to Wells park to see OZOMATLI the greatest band ever and thats no joke. They played an awesome set and BJ and I had a great time. Once over we headed home on our bikes and went mimi aka sleep.

Drama for your Mama
I had a great time this weekend surrounded by family and friends. There was one incident or shall I say DRAMA that happened and guess who was in it? YES ME!
I attended Aunt Mae's July 3rd party and there was an obnoxious guy, Gilbert. I would describe Gilbert as an OBNOXIOUS FAT DRUNK FUCK. I maybe said 2 words to him Hi and bye the entire day, Anyway I had gone out to the car to get my swimsuit when out of nowhere Gilbert flicks me with water and mumbles something. I in turn tell him "Your ass needs to calm down" as I pour my miller lite on his face. Well you would think this obnoxious FAT DRUNK F. Gilbert would get the picture right? He didn't he proceeded to rub himself and lick the beer from his face in a nasty way.
I under stood he was drunk and it wasn't a big deal to me. He just touched a nerve when he flicked water, listensing to this man talk for 8 hours about everything he didn't know, I guess ballooned to me pouring beer on him.
We have all been obnoxiously drunk at one point, I know I have and many buddies have forgiven me for stupid shit that came out of my ass but this guy is the KING OF Obnoxious fat drunk fuck's.
Back to Gilbert, he came into the house where Aunt Mae was and started to whine about what happened and called me a bitch. I wasn't in the room , so I wasn't aware of this till the end of the night. Aunt Mae decided to kick his ASS, just kidding! She spoke, he argued and there was going to be a FIGHT, A FIGHT ,but the kiddies got in it and he was asked to leave.
The funny thing is that I never said anything to anyone about this , Gilbert dug his own hole because he is an OBNOXIOUS FAT DRUNK FUCK!
