30 & up

I pictured life differently at this age. I thought I would have the husband, the house and the kid, but it didnโ€™t 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 military๐Ÿ™„ so that’s common. How do I know? I was in the service too. Tanyaโ€™s kid hates her๐Ÿ˜‚, but that’s also common for teenagers. I think itโ€™s payback because she was a bitch in high school.๐Ÿ˜’ I had my share of jobs, trying to make ends meet and still end up broke, but iโ€™d 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 stock๐Ÿ˜ฌ they let me go before winter break was up๐Ÿ˜. Then I was a vendor at Costco trying to sell energy drinks that were supposed to be good for you๐Ÿคจ, but that didnโ€™t last, I hated sales anyways. I even avoid buying cars because I canโ€™t stand car salesmen๐Ÿ™„. 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 didnโ€™t listenโ€ฆโ€ฆ..

@ work heading in from outside

ME: ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿฝโ€๐ŸซOk kids let’s do roll call to make sure we have everyone, when I call your name say “Here”….Alright๐Ÿง….Michael?

MICHAEL: Here ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿฟโ€โ™‚๏ธ

ME: Josh?๐Ÿ™‚

JOSH: Here๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

ME: Nicole?๐Ÿ™‚

NICOLE: Here๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

ME: Lucas?๐Ÿ™‚

LUCAS๐Ÿ‘ฆ: (busy talking to his friend)

ME: ๐Ÿคจ…Lucas???

LUCAS๐Ÿ‘ฆ: (continues talking to his friend)

ME: ๐Ÿ˜ ……

LUCAS๐Ÿ‘ฆ: (still not listening)….

ME:๐Ÿ—ฃ๐Ÿ—ฃ๐Ÿ—ฃ LUCAS!!๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ 

LUCAS: (turns around and smiles๐Ÿ˜) What’s up girl?๐Ÿ˜Ž

ME:๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ……

And not to mention I didnโ€™t know pepperoni was pork and gave it to a kid who was Muslim.๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธWhat was worse was the mom said she couldnโ€™t pray because she was on her period? But her God, I’m guessing Allah? would forgive meโ€ฆ..I been praying ever since ๐Ÿ˜

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 guys๐Ÿ˜ 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 โ€œback doorโ€ too much. I like being single in the โ€œdirtyโ€ 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 guy๐Ÿ’๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ, who was on the โ€œDLโ€ or whatever. He asked me if I could give him a rim job? I know that doesnโ€™t mean his gay๐Ÿ™„, but still I didnโ€™t like how he moaned๐Ÿคจ, sounded like a female๐Ÿ˜. I asked him if he was gay, he just laughed and said he wasnโ€™t, but it wasnt convincing enough๐Ÿ˜‘. 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 was๐Ÿ™‚ and next thing you know his saying โ€œpeople donโ€™t understand me and what I’ve been through.โ€๐Ÿ˜’ Even though he has told me 100 times his sob story๐Ÿ™„. 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 didnโ€™t wanna work. I had to kick his ass to the curb, because TLC taught me better than that. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

 The only good thing I got going is that I look younger than 30, my hairdresser thought I was 18๐Ÿคฃ. And sometimes I still get dirty looks from bartenders when they ask for my ID, because I wasnโ€™t pronouncing โ€œamaretto sourโ€ right. 

โ€œCan I see your ID?โ€๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿผ she said with a smirk

โ€œOf courseโ€๐Ÿ˜„ 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 cops๐Ÿ‘ฎ until I showed my ID. 

โ€œWowโ€ฆโ€ he said as he put down the phone and picked up my ID. 

โ€œHahaha 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 youโ€™ll 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 boy๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿฆฑ came into Ross hitting on me. ๐Ÿคจ

******************************

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 out๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

WHITE BOY: Twenty๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž

ME: How old do you think I am?

WHITE BOY:๐Ÿค”….Twenty??

ME: ๐Ÿ˜ณ….Sorry I just don’t date guys younger than me๐Ÿ˜‘…..but ummm good line though๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ญ

Black kid๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿฟ: Yeah she’s over 30…

Lil white boy๐Ÿ‘ฆ: (pouts his lips, snaps his finger) Girl! I thought you was 17๐Ÿ˜Ž

ME:๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ (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 locos๐Ÿ˜…, MD 20/20 and the weed. I should have gone after the guy I liked๐Ÿ˜ฅ 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 find๐Ÿ’” 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 donโ€™t 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 donโ€™t care what people think. I like seeing my friends and family happy or making them happy when they feel like things arenโ€™t 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 โ€œdirtyโ€ thirties๐Ÿฅ‚ regardless if your married, divorced, still looking for the wife, husband, or the dream job โค
