I pictured life differently at this age. I thought I would have the husband, the house and the kid, but it didnโt go as planned. The future husband ended up being someone else’s husband, the house is actually an apartment and there’s no kid, only a kitten. That’s ok, a lot of my friends pretend they’re happy for likes, when they are miserable. Kim’s husband cheats on her, then again he’s in the military๐ so that’s common. How do I know? I was in the service too. Tanyaโs kid hates her๐, but that’s also common for teenagers. I think itโs payback because she was a bitch in high school.๐ I had my share of jobs, trying to make ends meet and still end up broke, but iโd rather be broke and happy than miserable and rich.
I worked as a waitress in high school at an Alzheimer’s home. It was both interesting and sad. I would have to introduce myself to the same women everyday, and of course some would forget their orders so I would have to send it back. My favorite resident was a WW2 vet however I heard he was a Nazi, it was hard to believe because he was so sweet, but I was never there for his outburst. All I know is nobody better not put me in one of those homes. I want to be that old, but attractive old lady that thinks she’s young. I also tried working at Nordstroms during their holiday season, but sucked so bad at cashiering and stock๐ฌ they let me go before winter break was up๐. Then I was a vendor at Costco trying to sell energy drinks that were supposed to be good for you๐คจ, but that didnโt last, I hated sales anyways. I even avoid buying cars because I canโt stand car salesmen๐. Then I finally found a job I actually liked in childcare working with elementary kids. I kept it for 7 years before I decided to join the service. The only thing I hated about it was the low pay and having to deal with some kids who didnโt listenโฆโฆ..
@ work heading in from outside
ME: Ok kids let’s do roll call to make sure we have everyone, when I call your name say “Here”….Alright
….Michael?
MICHAEL: Here
ME: Josh?
JOSH: Here
ME: Nicole?
NICOLE: Here
ME: Lucas?
LUCAS: (busy talking to his friend)
ME: …Lucas???
LUCAS: (continues talking to his friend)
ME: ……
LUCAS: (still not listening)….
ME: LUCAS!!
LUCAS: (turns around and smiles) What’s up girl?
ME:……
And not to mention I didnโt know pepperoni was pork and gave it to a kid who was Muslim.๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธWhat was worse was the mom said she couldnโt pray because she was on her period? But her God, I’m guessing Allah? would forgive meโฆ..I been praying ever since ๐
I stayed in service for 7 years and still came out with no husband, no kid, not even a divorce, I was 31. I had some good times though, I was seeing a couple Airborne guys๐ not at the same time, even though having a threesome before I hit 30 was on my bucket list. Anyways I stopped seeing them because for some reason they both liked using the โback doorโ too much. I like being single in the โdirtyโ thirties even if it’s pointless hookups, talking to men who end up being too young, or too old for me, and worried about my eggs dying.
I swear I was just fucking a gay guy๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ, who was on the โDLโ or whatever. He asked me if I could give him a rim job? I know that doesnโt mean his gay๐, but still I didnโt like how he moaned๐คจ, sounded like a female๐. I asked him if he was gay, he just laughed and said he wasnโt, but it wasnt convincing enough๐. I know this is going to sound weird, but even when he was on top he moved like a girl. But what pissed me off the most was the fact he was narcissistic and made everything about him. You could ask how nice the weather was๐ and next thing you know his saying โpeople donโt understand me and what I’ve been through.โ๐ Even though he has told me 100 times his sob story๐. He always played the victim. It was someone else’s fault, the roommate, the boss, whoever. Even when I helped him with resume and finding jobs and a place to live he would rather sit in his car and get high. Not just narcissistic, but naive. He tried to convince me that one of the biggest pyramid schemes out there wasn’t a scheme. Then tried to live off me cause he ended up homeless and didnโt wanna work. I had to kick his ass to the curb, because TLC taught me better than that. ๐
The only good thing I got going is that I look younger than 30, my hairdresser thought I was 18๐คฃ. And sometimes I still get dirty looks from bartenders when they ask for my ID, because I wasnโt pronouncing โamaretto sourโ right.
โCan I see your ID?โ๐ฉ๐ผ she said with a smirk
โOf courseโ๐ then I watched as the smirk went away, as she made my drink with frustration. One time when I was 21 I went to 7/11 and the cashier almost called the cops๐ฎ until I showed my ID.
โWowโฆโ he said as he put down the phone and picked up my ID.
โHahaha I get that alotโ It was my fault though, I came in wearing pigtails, no makeup and overalls. I always got made fun of for not looking my age, my friends always said youโll take it as a compliment when you’re older, and I do. I still get high school and college boys hitting on me. Makes me feel weird, since some are younger than my brother who’s 23. Some 19 yr old white boy๐จ๐ปโ๐ฆฑ came into Ross hitting on me. ๐คจ
******************************
WHITE BOY: DAMN GIRL! Are you my appendix? cause I don’t know how you work, but this feeling in my stomach makes me want to take you out
ME: (WTF??starts laughing) How old are you kid…??
WHITE BOY: Twenty

WHITE BOY:….Twenty??
ME: Thanks…..but noooo

Another incident at Walmart.
(Cashier makes me move from self check to his line because I had too many items, bends over to put items back)
Cashier: I noticed you have a tattoo on your back
Me: …uuuh yeah…I got a few of them
Cashier: Really what are they?
Me: …well ones a Dragon, Lion…I donโt know, been a while
Cashier: What about piercings?
Me: …..(this white boy) ummm yeah ears…nose and belly….
Cashier: Are you single?
Me: …….
Cashier:
Me: You know I’m actually older than I look.
Cashier: You mean you’re not 22?
Me: Naw lol I’m actually 32 in a few days
Cashier: ….it’s okay

Me: …..hmmm
(writes something down)
Well here’s my snap chat
If you’ve seen the office, I’m like a mix between Michael, Dwight and Jim…..
Me: ….(Yup going to Safeway, instead next weekend)
********************************
Even the kids at work.
ME: Ok kids let’s head back to the cafeteria
Lil white boy: And teenager
ME: What teenager??
Lil white boy: (looks at me) You
ME:….boy I ain’t no teenager
Black kid: Yeah she’s over 30…
Lil white boy: (pouts his lips, snaps his finger) Girl! I thought you was 17
ME: (thinking) he hanging round his black friend too much….
But what I learned so far in life is I should have laid off the four locos๐ , MD 20/20 and the weed. I should have gone after the guy I liked๐ฅ even though I was too young and was told to focus on my job and education. That is important as well, but the older you get, you realize love is hard to find๐ so go for it. They will say you have plenty of time to date guys, but not if you already met the right one, then you donโt want anyone else. Nowadays I do what I want regardless of what people say and I love that the older we get the more we donโt care what people think. I like seeing my friends and family happy or making them happy when they feel like things arenโt the way it should be, we all think like that at some point in our lives. But if you have someone to love then you already accomplish what everybody else is trying to achieve, no matter what they say or how rich they are. So cheers to the โdirtyโ thirties๐ฅ regardless if your married, divorced, still looking for the wife, husband, or the dream job โค
