Memorial Weekend begins!

Our Road trip to MD was very interesting, Dare, Omolayo, Lolade and Oyinade, all headed to MD for the Labor Day weekend. It took us like 7 hours to get there because we stopped like 4 times to chill on the way. We finally made it there at about 10 pm. We all crashed at Moji’s crib and stayed up really late.
I slept in Friday morning because I was exhausted but I had to get up to run some errands. My list was endless.
1. Go to Uncle Timi’s house to get my mail
2. Go to court to pay my (1 year) over due ticket
3. Go to MVA to get my license reinstated (never mind the fact that my ghetto ass has been driving on a suspended license for a little over a year!)
4. Drop Omolayo at the hairdresser to get her hair trimmed
5. Take Oyinade shopping
6. Go grocery shopping for Moji’s shindig
7. Cook like a mad chef till I pass the hell out!

I started with some Chinese, shrimp fried rice and wings with mumbo sauce, to set me off! (Damn I am so damn greedy!) Then to Uncle Timi’s Crib, that went smoothly enough. I decided Oyinade should come with me to court incase my ass got arrested. It would be a first but E.I told me that I might be in there for the whole weekend and Monday too being a holiday and all! O hell na! Queenb incarcerated? Not gonna happen, I instructed Oyinade to call everybody and their mama if these collars try to lock me up! Thankfully they didn’t so I paid my $75 fine and jet. I dropped Oyinade and Omolayo off at the hairdresser and headed to the MVA. MVA was not so bad, an hour and $30 later, I was done!
We stoped at a couple stores and Oyinade found all the baffs she needed (thank God, the little rat was starting to get on my damn nerves!) She wanted to look fabulous and all my suggestions were too boring, is that what I was like at 18? Lordy that is scary!! I tortured myself at Barefeet, I wanted everything in sight and had no money! I was tempted to put my newly acquired, work provided AMEX to work…but I didn’t. …Yipeee!
Moji called and wanted me to make a detour and run an extra errand which threw me off schedule a tad bit, but for you boo…anything!
I stopped at the mall to meet Aunty Tokunbo real quick, then off to the boonies of B’more to pick Moji up. She had just gotten her hair did and was looking fabulous for her big day! We headed to the Naija grocery store and then the American one. Talk about a long ass day!
My leg was starting to bother me but I did not want to leave Moji alone to do all the cooking so I hung in there. I finally gave up at like 2pm to catch some very much needed winks.
