"Back in the lab, with a pen & a pad!!".......I swear I'm still alive everyone!! :-) Let's see *taps chin* what's been going on????
I recently had a job working for an architectural firm which was exciting. I finally felt like a grown up again! The work was SUPER easy, but trust and believe the kid didn't complain.....it got me out of the house so I was all for it! And because the work was so easy, I had to time focus on my college app essays (TOTAL WIN!!!) Unfortunately for me, it only lasted 2 wks...sooooooooo now I'm back to where I started. Home. Job hunting.
On another note, I'M A GOD MOMMY AGAIN!!!!! One of my P.I.C.s gave birth to a healthy baby boy Sunday, September 26th, at 12:30 AM!!!!! She's an amazing young lady with a great partner in life to help her raise their little angel. I just hope my other love bug doesn't get too jealous! :-) I look forward to meeting Jabari VERY soon!!!! Loves him already!
Hmmmm.....what else???? OH! Since I am once again unemployed, I was able to take a trip to Atlanta this past weekend. I almost didn't go, but lucky for me I changed my mind! (I totally believe in fate) The Atlanta Classics were taking place, TSU vs. FAMU, and I was looking forward to a repeat of last year's festivities.....visiting with the fam, hitting up the mall, tailgating with the bruhs of Omega Psi Phi, eating good food, having some laughs and PARTY PARTY PARTY!!!! I quickly realized all things aren't meant to go according to plan.....
Unfortunately, none of my buddies decided to tailgate this year so my cousin & I had to come up with a Plan B. I spent my first night celebrating a friend's "belated" birthday at Dugan's which was TOTALLY BOSS FUN!! Wings, drunkards & karaoke??? What could be better?!?!?! Saturday consisted of Family Fun Night at yet another cousin's house, a cookout with my favorite Ques :-), then off to PLAYDATE ATLANTA which was pretty much the icing on the cake for the night.
***Side note: If you ever get a chance to attend a PlayDate event in your area, DO IT! It was a lot more fun than I expected it to be!***
The wkend ended with a trip to Atlantic Station with the parentals and younger cuzzo for a mini photo shoot in the rain, dinner at Gladys Knight's Chicken & Waffles, meeting Robin Givens, being harassed by homeless men on Peachtree St, and becoming a member of the #UpAllNightCrew [insider]! There were a few bumps in the weekend as well, but that is DEFINITELY a topic for a blog at another time......smh....Let's just say, from this point on, Amber L. Taylor is committed to living a DRAMA FREE life! I'm minimizing my inner circle & increasing my standards ;-) No where else to go from here but UP, UP, UP!!!!!
Until next time...........
