Candies and Condoms Labor Day Weekend 2008

Thursday
Although for some of y'all it started before then, most of us went to first service on Thursday. I overcame my own hysteria of not getting in touch with my barber in time to get a haircut before work...so I had to make do. After witnessing some of that fantastic speech from Obama at the DNC, off we went to stand in line at Bulldogs. Me, Mother MaiLIng, and someone I'll call ReverendNewPiece. We were later joined by my roommate, my good friend London and others. We danced, we drank, we drank, we drank...we talked a lil bit of shit, I stopped holding in my stomache, and we drank. We capped the night off in the parking lot of course where I got held up by some chile fussing about a phone call or some kinda nonsense...left his ass right there still fussin too...mmhhmm.

Friday
I didn't participate Friday because I got absolutely no sleep after Bulldogs and having to wake up early for my barbershop appt. I came home from work and called it a night.

Saturday
Me and my good friend G ( not that Gee, the other G, yeah that one...yeah I know...we love him) decided to pretend that we didn't know about any such Labor Day Events and we headed up GA400 to the shopping outlets. We got a cute few things, saw two or three future husband prototypes and headed back to the city where we were reminded in the Lenox Square parking lot that the city was invaded by chaos. We headed to Fellini's then , ate and had one ole conversation about the goings on in Atlanta during this time year after year... Later on, I got out and did some parking lots with some other friends and some cheap ass vodkas. (Yeah I missed Danity Kane and Traxx) During which I noticed there seemed to be an extra couple thousand participants this year. Did y'all notice that? Did y'all also notice all the boys dressed in women's clothes? Hmmmm. the youth....

Sunday
We headed out to NewNew's Snellville estate for some good BBQ and good times. This is where Valentino decided to show up. He only hinted at showing up those other days but on Sunday he was taunted with shots of vodka. So he appeared first as a sexy cheerleader during the volleyball game, then later when he decided to give some young man passed out in a lounge an impromtu lap dance. For some reason he also felt the need to sit on a number of laps. Thats a new one. We both had a great time at NewNew's estate. We saw some fellow bloggers...Heyyy!!! After that we headed to Club Europe which is by far the best ever of planned venues every year and the only in my opinion worth the extra money they charge. There's always a performer ( this year's was Tonex the "gospel" or "alternative gospel" artist which I actually missed but am a lil ok with that since he confuses me a little) , a fashion show hosted by one of the ANTM's ( Naima...who scared the mess out of me down the runway...I thought that fan they had blowing on her was gonna knock her out) and this year there was an exotic dancer show ( hosted by Bobby Blake....hmmmm no comment.) The only thing about Europe is there is just so much going on that you can't possibly participate in it all. I remember walking passed the table featuring Jensen Atwood meaning to come back to it and never did... Durnit.. Sunday was a very great time....Eventhough I didn't get to see a new potential beau whom we'll call BreezeeBaby and I couldn't text him to find him since my phone decided to fuck up a lil over a week ago. I know right...A fool.

Monday
Rested my ass off and talked on the phone with BreezeeBaby all afternoon and evening.We're liking BreezeeBaby...Oh yes...

Overall it was very nice weekend. I didn't spend too much money. I didn't get overwelmed and over it. I didn't let Valentino show his ass too much. I guess you can say it was kinda lowkey.
