Fun weekend of music, movies, and men

This weekend has been so much fun. I was prepared to spend it in the house, sleeping and watching television. But I was pleasantly surprised by a visit from Pierre. He came to Chicago for the weekend. We went to this concert at the Charter One Pavilion where Kem, Anthony Hamilton, Jaheim and Raheem Davaughn performed. I am usually not into that type of music but I really enjoyed myself. He brought a few of his football buddies with him so I brought Candace and Erika with me to the concert. I had never even heard or seen Raheem before but that little nigga put on a SHOW!!! OMG...I was drooling after his performance. He danced and grinded and seduced the entire female audience. He sang some song about BOB - Battery Operated Boyfriend. Me and Erika was tripping 'cause we'd never heard that song before. And we were on dates so we couldn't divulge that type of information. After Raheem performed, he yells to the audience "If any of you want to take a picture with me, come follow me." And he marched through the campground to his picture booth. Of course we, the girls, followed lol. We took a picture with him and had it autographed. I didn't enjoy Jaheim...I just don't like him. He's annoying. He reminds me of Ronny Smith lol. Then Kem performed....OMG he did it up big. I loved every bit of it. Being outside feeling the breeze off the Lake at night and listening to good music just puts you at ease. Then Anthony Hamilton performed. I didn't know he could dance like that. Then he sang a bit of Tevin Campbell's "Shhh (Break it down)..I don't want nobody else to hear the sound...this love is a private affair...interrupt the flow no you'd better not dare." Hmmm...that took me back, y'all lol. We left in the middle of Anthony's performance because we were trying to avoid all the traffic. We thought that he was finished but even while we were waiting for the shuttle back to our cars, Anthony was still performing. They shut the music down when Jaheim was singing lol. And they played House Music between each set. You should've seen the people juking and dancing to that music. It reminded me of Nate lol. I guess House Music is fun to dance to if you ain't got nothing else to do. But it was grown men jumping up yelling "That's my jam!" Do grown men do that??? After the concert, we went to Portillos downtown and had fun. Good clean honest fun.
The next day, we all went to the movies at the movie theatre downtown on Randolph. We saw "Taken" which was soooo good. Hmmm...I couldn't believe all the fine sexy delicious men in that movie. Good grief! And when Idris got out the bed, every woman in the place moaned. I shutter just thinking about that scene...that man is gorgeous!!! And I love me some Chris Brown and Paul Walker. This movie theatre had assigned seats and an open bar. It was so nice. And then we hung out on this balcony that overlooked the city. It was really nice. While I'm hanging out, guess who is blowing up my phone? You'd never guess....Lamont. Random right? He's asking me what I'm doing and if I'm alone and stuff. Then he asks me to send him some pictures....yes, plural. I was confused 'cause we never got down like that. I asked him why he needed a picture of me and he responded that he needed one because I was his boo. Then he texted me "what's u sexy?" That was just so random. I told Neicey this and, of course, she was excited 'cause she's Team Lamont lol.
I chatted with Gregory tonight. I was working on these bulletins for church and I chatted with him while doing that. He's...special. His life has not been easy. I feel sorry for him and I kinda recognize myself in him so that's why I can't hurt his feelings. Yet I'm not leading him on. I understand where Alfonse was coming from when we were together. I couldn't understand how he could not call me everyday. I figured if you were feeling someone, you'd want to talk to them all the time. They would be on your mind 24/7. And while Gregory feels that way, I don't. I don't think of him until I'm completely bored or he hits me up first. So sometimes it'll be 3 or 4 days until he'll hear from me and I only do from obligation. Even as I'm typing this, I'm understanding myself and seeing the parallelism with Alfonse. I need to stop it...it's not nice nor fair. I don't like Gregory....at all. He's cool but I don't like him like that and I think I need to tell him that. Moving on......
Tomorrow we're all going to a wedding for one of Pierre's friends. Normally I would be nervous but since Erika and Candace is coming along, I won't be that scared. Starting Wednesday morning, I am on my strict diet. I need to get it together...seriously!!!! Tired so XOXO
