            Here I am trying to get ready for the club and my hair a mess. I can’t get it to lay flat or curl. I t won’t even wrap like it suppose to. Arrgh, sometimes I hate going out but Tia and Casey said it would be good for me.  About three months ago, my boyfriend of two years decides he wanted to see other people. I didn’t think of it something bad just, he wanted something new, something fresh. So I quietly went on with my life and decide to focus on other things like work and self-improvement.  Tia thought it was my way of not dealing with the pain, which it was. Casey, on the other hand, thought it was because I was hoping after he dated a few girls that he would come back to me with his tail between his legs begging me to come back.  To be truthful, both of them were correct. I mean after investing time in a man, not a raggedy man but a good man he decides he wants to upgrade to a new woman for curiosity sake. 

            But I digress; I was trying to get ready for the club, so I brought a new outfit and decide to have fun. I put on the radio while still trying to get my hair right, and this club banger came on. I stopped and started dancing to the beat and singing the words, “I ‘m going to Dance my pain away, I got problems, Dance my Pain away, I got Problems…” I continued to sing the words to the song until I realized it was 15 minutes until I had to met Tia and Casey at Tia’s house. I quickly decide it wasn’t worth trying to curl my hair. I made a part on the left making sure it looked well moisturized and gel the back down to prevent the appearance of the new undergrowth.  I grabbed the rest of my jewelry, shoes and ran out the apartment quickly.  I bumped into on of the tenants going down the steps.

 “Watch out, sexy you might catch your self a man tonight.”, he said casually with a hint of confidence. I smiled and began to blush a little after his comment.   I continued on my run to the car in my four inch heels. Once to the car toke one heal off to drive with my flip flops for some reason I can’t drive in heels.

            As I head over to Tia House I realized that, I didn’t put any deodorant on as a slight odor began to develop. Luckily I was right at the corner of Tia Street. I made a sharp left turn into a parking spot. My car was crooked but it it in a spot and right in front of her house. I looked around and didn’t see Casey car as I approached her front door. I knocked three times when, she flew it open as, she greeted me with a bubbly happiness. I wish I could describe her reaction but it was a mix between urban coolness and true happiness like she just found her long lost sister with hints of realizing you so close to finishing a certain task. Tia used me in the house and gave me a once over.

            “Girl, you look gorgeous with sex appeal oozing from every crevice you have!” she said as her eyes got bigger. “Are you going to put on some jewelry on?”

“Oh yeah I didn’t want to be late.” As I held up my small white plastic bag, and head towards her bathroom.

“And Hannah, you might want to change on of your shoes” She yelled out to me as I proceeded to go into the bathroom. I looked down briefly and realized that I still had my flip flop on.  I proceed to put my sliver accessories on, I figured if my hair looked plain than Glamorize everything else. I had silver hoop earrings on that seem to get bigger with each hoop. I had a purple and silver necklace that shimmered just right when any type of light hit it. Of course silver bangles on both wrist to  My dress was the same color of my necklace a warm summery purple, with silver hoops that tied around the back of my neck. I wore my black heels because of the hits of silver plus my purse was black.  Once everything was finished I was thrilled by the look. It seemed sexy yet classy.

             As I head down stairs I heard Casey come in with her outrageously loud outfit, all I heard was clanking. As I went down stairs I saw why it clanked she wore her stripper out fit that had beads and fringes of plastic beads that hung every where.  She had gold accessory even gold along her eye shadow.  Even her pants had beads and fringes on it.  Tia was cool she wore basic brown but some how it seemed more than just brown which made it extra sexy. 

             “Some one’s going to get man tonight!” as her voice seemed a million times louder and nasally. “Naw were all going to get a man tonight!” as she picked her purse up and head toward the door. “So are you’ll ready?” as she put her hands on the door knob about to open the door.

            “Yeah.” Tia exclaimed pushing me out her house. We rode out Exodus in Casey Jeep which was freshly clean. When we got to t eh club there was no line. I figured it was a slow night it since it was 11:30.  Once inside there was nothing but women laughing and giggling and dancing.  I thought to myself no man catching tonight, as I proceed to the dance floor and danced. Casey and Tia followed as we dance to the music. The music was okay as the DJ mixed Old school reggae with Reggaton which created a blend of winding and grinding dancing. No men came up to dance with use they just stood off to the side drinking whatever the choice of drink was that night.  After a while the ones who had enough liquor in them came up and danced. Tia had zoned out to the music so most me just approached me and Casey. Casey danced with every man that crossed her path. I danced with a few but most of them was old enough to be my father and Several of them proceed to attempted to penetrated me through my clothes. After three men got too personal with my thighs I sat down. My feet were killing me, so I decide to sit for a second. I began taking of my heels to see if any blister were forming. When this man approached me. “Excuse me, would you like me to rub your feet?” I looked up to see an attractive man standing over me about to sit down.  I was taken back by his question, after a moment, I finally answered “Umm…. No but thanks for the offer.” I slipped my shoe back on but he proceeded to sit beside me. “My name is Ronald, and your is …” as he smiled inching closer “Hannah.” I finally got up to head back to the dance floor, but Ronald stopped me and asked if I would like a drink. “No, I don’t know you like that.” I made my over to Casey and began dancing. About five minutes later some guy started dancing with me.  It was cool he wasn’t trying to rape me through my clothes and he actually had rhythm. Then the same voice as before, whispered in my ear “ I would like to know you a little better so how about we go grab a bite to eat at the all night dinner up the street.” Ronald was dancing and grinding with me. I thought to myself I might as well grab a bite to eat and I would like to get to know him better. So I whispered back only if my friends can come ?” He shook his head leaning over  with the scent of unforgivable playing in my nose slow arousing me “ Just meet me at the front door in 10 min.” Just as he walked away I felt someone grab my arm. “Girl who was that?” asked Casey noticing she was missing some of her outfit. “Oh… some guy I just met his name Ronald, he asked if we wanted to grab a quick meal up at Grandma Bella’s” Casey paused for a second, thinking “Okay lets find Tia and leave. As we moved through the crowd of people I notice Tia in the corner of the club lip locking with some dude. He wasn’t attractive so we figured Tia must have been drunk. We pulled Tia away with no protest. Usually pulling someone away with no protest meant she only was teasing him and he probably was high and drunk to. When we got to the front door, I saw Ronald and three other men. They were nice, equally good looking in their own way none of them had any enduring qualities. We all left for Bella’s, once there we found a table for seven. Once seated conversation began to pick up nothing great the usually how the club music was, the food, a little bit about each other. Casey and Tia weren’t really feeling the other men, but then again there tastes in men were different.  During the meal, Ronald made an interesting comment about bumping into his neighbor who was in a rush.  Then it donned on me Ronald was my neighbor from next floor. I had bumped into rushing out of the building.  After paying the bill he slipped me his cell phone number and told me to call him. We parted ways after that. Once getting in the Truck Casey started talking “Hannah, your something, got four men to pay our dinner, to bad they wasn’t more street.” As began driving back to Tia’s. “I know” said Tia, “shit I don’t know what you did to them but shit girl, we got to go out more than this, free dinners after dancing” She continued to talk about one of the men that was with us and saying she wouldn’t mind getting to know him better. As we pulled up to Tia house we each went our separate ways. As I proceed to my apartment I looked at his number and wondered if I should call him. I mean my feet were hurting and a free foot won’t really lead to anything. I mean we might kiss a little, but I will get my foot rub and felt up a little and leave and keep him as a friend. As I parked the car in the lot, I saw him walking toward the building. I quickly locked the door and hasten my step toward him. Just as he proceeded up the step I stopped him. “ Hey Ronald, I was wondering if the foot rub was still available?” He sheepishly, smiled and said “ Of course, your place or mine?”

           I know crappy right! but hey i was bored.

Date ideas...

Date Ideas for March 2013:

Last night I had a man allude to the idea that they wanted to go to the movies. The picked the Beltway movies and they are showing films that came out last year (Argo, Life of Pi, Django and Zero Dark Thirty). I should warn you, I only am interested in two movies on here; one is Life of Pi and Django. I have already seen Django. Right now, my mind needs easing and not thought provoking such as Life of Pi.  I realized men are still failing at good quality dates.  I love movie dates, but not when they are half-assed. A movie can tell you a lot about a person, are they happy go lucky, as they depressed, are they intellectual. I am a simple person, so I need more of an Action movie or comedy. I am not trying to over think and really just want to relax and leave the theater either happy or excited.  Here are some groupon date ideas that I think people would like and are cheap.

Movie Groupon Date

So they always have cheap movie dates on Groupon, I used Groupon to see Skyfall with me and my friend we got popcorn and sodas all for $21. I only paid like $10 for the groupon.  The below groupon is for two different locations.  You can choose Between Two Options,

•$15.25 for two movie tickets and one medium popcorn (a $30.50 value)

•$30 for four movie tickets and two medium popcorns (a $61 value)

http://www.groupon.com/deals/east-point-10-movie-theater-1?c=dnb&p=4

If you are not into these theaters you can always travel down to Linthicum to Hoyts West Nursery Cinemas

Choose Between Two Options

•$11 for one movie ticket, one large popcorn, and one large soda on Monday–Thursday (up to a $23 value)

•$11 for one movie ticket, one large popcorn, and one large soda on Friday–Sunday (up to a $23 value)

Suggestion for movies to see:

Identity Theft – its stupid ha-ha funny

The Great and Powerful Oz – A modern and CGI twist to the prelude to the Wizard of Oz

Jack the Giant Slayer- Despite idea its bad, it may actually be good enough for a date.

What if the person you are into is not about going to the movies. Well you can dance the night away at the Get Down.

The Get Down –Fells Point

For $14 you can take your friend male or female out for a night of dancing and drinks. This date is good for people who are into dancing.  It's hard to stand still at The Get Down, the DJs spin energetic dance tunes and a full bar keeps guests coming back for more. The Get Down has a diverse crowd for dancing, shaking your booty to underground, house, and old-school mixes.
