Making a way out of no way.

WOW. 

a lot has happened in

the past weekend.

Lets recap.

Friday:

I got a voicemail message from my 

aunt saying i needed to find a new place to live.

That night after work I went to Bubba Gump's with

Diallo, Ben, John, and Shawn. 

Life is good when you know bartenders.

By this point it's about 2 in the morning.

Diallo offers crashing at his place so i dont have to

walk all the way home and i accept.

Midwalk I get a phone call from my uncle asking if 

I was coming home. I reluctantly say yes, he mumbles and

hangs up the phone. I'm walking to Diallo's and notice I have a missed

call from my aunt. I check my vmail and she says 

"if you're not home by the time we wake up 

you can pack your stuff and leave." 

Sure. No problem.

At 2:45 I get another message saying 

"Since you arent coming home you can get your stuff tomorrow.

If it's not out by Sunday, I'll throw it in the street."

Pause the story for a minute. Now is it just me

or is there a conflict right here???

You see it?? okay. Back to the recap.

Saturday Morning:

I leave Diallo's later than I wanted because

he needed me to stay until he got back, [he lost his key.]

I leave around 10:30 and jump on the bus.

I got to pick up a few things and my uncle is standing

in the hallway posted as if to intimidate me.

He starts trying to go off and I tell him 

"You've had this whole time to talk to me and all you've done

is talk AT me. I'm tired of it."

He ignores my comment and says that I'm 

"selfish, unappreciative, and exude a fuck you attitude."

I ask "how can I exude an attitude if I'm never here as you say?"

Silence. 

Cause working two jobs and going to school is such

horrid thing for me to do.

Right?

Right.

I get some work clothes and head off.

I went downtown and went to the Travelodge Inn so 

I could just shower and get dressed for work.

I was supposed to come to the San Fernando Valley after work

but that would mean I'd have to take the MetroTrain at

12am again. Yah. Not happening.

So I crashed with Kim and Lexxi that night.

GOOD TIMES.

 

Sunday: 

My best friend Ashley, her mom and little sister came to get me.

I called my aunt so I could get all of my stuff and not

worry about it. I ask her if she was at home and she says

"No I'm at the store."

I ask if she knows when she'll be home and I get

"You're going to have to wait until I feel like coming home,"

for an answer. 

O_o

Bitch...I will cut you.

My bestfriend's mom take the phone and 

gets on her head about playing games 

and my aunt hangs up.

I call my uncle trying to ask him

to get her to cooperate and the FIRST thing out

of his mouth is 

"Fuck is this shit with your friend disrespecting my wife?"

UMMMMMM.....

Ms.Pam takes the phone and lets him know

the REAL situation and he calls me back two minutes later

saying she's on her way home.

Now when I get there I see they put all my stuff

in a bunch of random boxes and bags.

I say to my friend Ashley 

"I dont know why they just didnt leave it in the

box it was in to begin with."

Out of NOWHERE my aunts mom says

"You werent here to pack it. They gave you a home.

All they asked you was to be home."

I just looked at her and said

"I was home more than I was out. And most of the

time I was at work."

I give her the key after I'm done and leave.

So in the car on the way to Ashley's

we have a vision.

What if Loris went to Patten University

with Ashley?

Needless to say we called Patten

to see if it was possible, 

downloaded the application

got on the phone with the Director of Admissions,

and all that good jazz.

Acceptance in 24 hours?

We'll see.

Conclusion:

I guess things happen for a reason.
