Some say the summer begins at the end of June others say memorial day, I say it starts when school ends. When you are in your mid 20's and your friends range from 21 to 30 this is a safe starting point. College classes typically end early may which means summer plans are not only under way but some have already been set into play.
May was a big month, to be honest the whole summer was huge looking back. Phil graduated from Temple and Mr. MeTo traded titles, Mr for Dr. Dr. MeTo completed his PhD and his plan was to finish things up at Rutgers and move in with his parents come June. Phil decided on some training for a job working in a hospital as nurse tech or something or other.
As for the rest of the RGOP well lets just say its no longer. Phil and Jaye decided that reconciliation was not going to happen. Tia did move back to Philly as well as myself. RJ went MIA and after hanging out with Adam one night he pissed on a bin of my clothes and passed out drunk. Then he moved to Lock Haven randomly and has not been herd from.
With Dr. MeTo living with his parents I decided to move back to the city of brotherly love where I knew getting buy would be much easier. A city with clubs, jobs and my friends all accessible by Mass Transit.
I finished classes may 13th and started my new job at Starbucks the 17th. I continued to work at the Den until the weekend of memorial day and that ended the chapter of my life I like to call “Dirty Jersey.” however I must admit the job at the den made Jersey worth it.
When June rolled around I was into full swing in working at Starbucks. I began making friends and it was nice to meet Jaye and Austin for coffee once in awhile. However something was missing. I had everything I wanted but I was not living with my Fiancée. To balance it all I picked up some old bad habits like Andrew and Raymone. Late night out dancing, drinking and parting. Before I knew it an old friend moved around the corner and it was two crazy nights I will never forget mild in nature compared to the past but fun all the same.
As I started to get to know the regulars at Starbucks there was one who stood out above the rest. I didn't know it at the time but he was working on becoming quite the big shot and for reasons that are UN-Sex and the City, I will call J.R. Big, J.R. for short. Mornings of hi's and smiles soon progressed to brief conversations with flirtatious undertones.
I soon realized I needed to have MeTo mark his territory. There were a few opportunities where I managed MeTo to come visit and I showed him off at work. Then all my coworkers knew I was not only engaged but engaged to a hunk.
I took two vacations this summer, one upstate to hang out with the Fiancée and his family and one to the beach to hang out with the extended family. Both trips were fun but left me longing to be back in the city.
In the mean time Jaye and I were drifting apart. I was living the fast life with my new friends and he was unable to join me due to his lack of funds. Before I knew it several mis communications latter I was being chastised via facebook.
JR soon decided to make his move and hit me up via facebook and then text and before I knew it my whole job knew he was interested and many to my surprise gave their blessing. I knew it was wrong and I did not want to go any further, so I sat him down and explained the situation, only one issue, I was a bit to honest.
I tried several other times to make friends and it was the same thing, meet up and then they would express romantic interest. Therefore I decided that Tuesday Karaoke with my coworkers would be my escape from my crazy life. It worked great and I soon had managed to balance it all. JR, MeTo, work, my new friends and even my finances.
The summer went on and I missed MeTo and I eventually told him so and then a few days later I picked a fight, then he poured out his soul and I did mine. Later a conversation with my aunt and a mutual friend helped me realize that if things were really meant to be I was going to have to test it, hard.
Dr. MeTo came down to visit at my request and simply hung out. One night I called off the engagement and the next the relationship. He gave good reasons why I shouldn't but my mind was made up. A few days latter I took my day off so I could finalize things for school, only to find out that due to a gross miscommunication at CCP my financial aid was not ready and I would have to front part of my tuition. I didn't have that kind of money and I became distressed. Much like DC after the earthquake which happened the same day.
After a night of heavy drinking and my regularly scheduled karaoke I was still feeling blue, it was not until I hung out with JR. He helped me put things in perspective and reminded me that I could still work on my other goals. Reminded me of someone.
So here I am at the end of august and single with a different cast of friends. Who would have thought that in 4 short months so much could change. I have no idea what the fall is bringing but I am ready.
Coming Soon!
