I'm still recovering from a wonderful night on yesterday...it was a bday celebration for me. A friend of mine told me that it was gonna happen last week, and he wasn't lying. It was at this very nice restaurant that turns into a social setting after 10pm. I loved it! We partied it up grown and sexy style, which is a relief, cause I really don't see a lot of that here lol! I love it when blacks can get together and have a good time, no drama, no fights...just kickin it hard!
I feel really special though! This is the first bday celebration I've had with the people here. Last year my girls came down to visit and we did have a great time. I am just thankful that the people here care enough about me to help me continue on with my bday festivities! This is when I really like it here...when I realize that I have met a great group of people that I can hang out with. I know that the friends I have cannot be replaced at all, but it is comforting to find folk here who share my same interests. We are going to pick up next weekend with more celebrating!!!
The girls chipped in and got me wine glasses as a gift! This may not seem like much, but it's actually very thoughtful considering I had a superbowl party at my house and we had wine to drink...but no wine glasses to drink out of!! So instead, we had to drink out of blue cups, which was not classy at all lol! Now, I have wine glasses so that my guests can enjoy their wine with class!!! Not only the guests, but me too...if I'm feeling up to it. :-)
I was thinking last night that my friends looked so cute. I love it when women/men can go out together and be on the same page in terms of style. Nobody stuck out like a sore thumb. Just classy...Is that materialistic of me? I'm a believer that a person should care about their appearance. I learned when I started my job that "nobody cares about those who don't care about themselves." Do you agree? Just think about it. Why do you think there is so much emphasis on dressing the part, the do's and don'ts of appearance. That's because it matters. Now a lot of people say "like me for who I am on the inside" and that's ok in certain situations, but most of the time that is a bunch of crap. Mainly because if you see someone who looks like a bum in a club or restaurant etc. , you won't want to give that person the time of day. Not saying you will be mean to the person, but you automatically wonder, "What was he/she thinking coming in here with that on?" I know it because I have observed how others react to people like that. Honestly, I have been that person wondering if the other person looked in the mirror before they left the house. It doesn't take a lot to look decent, but it does mean that you care about yourself if you do. It's those that put more time into the look that are much more fabulous than the next. Just my random thoughts. Am I being unreasonable?
