So yall remember me telling yall about Dro? The guy I matched with on BLK? Well Dro is a major character in this story. And yes, he’s still my boo ♥
So let’s get started. I woke up on Thursday and I felt very ready for my day. I had been PMSing for the last few days, but so lol Thursday is one of my favorite days at work because I have a really long morning and a short afternoon with my students. The school day went pretty well. Everything was going as expected. I had a plan for my evening. I was gonna go get my miles in at the park, doordash for a few hours, take a shower, and read myself to sleep. Needless to say, things didn’t work out like that. I went to do my walk and while I was walking, I was thinking about how Chick-fil-a sent me a reward for a free sunjoy (½ lemonade, ½ tea). I swear they just made up that name. I always order that lol Anyway, after my walk, I went to pick it up. It was around 5:30 and I knew they’d be busy. I was on the phone with Dro at the time. We were just talking about nothing. Then he tells me something and he’s completely oblivious to the fact that it pissed me off. He continues talking. I usually tell him when he makes me mad and for some reason I just didn’t this time. I get my sunjoy and yall….they forgot my straw. MY BLOOD BEGAN TO BOIL!!! Again, it’s 5:30; the curbside area is packed, the drive thru is packed, and you can’t go inside. I was so pissed. I could’ve cried. I just pulled off and started doordashing. The first doordash order was at CJ Chan and the customer lived like 6 minutes away. Quick $8.50. The next order is a batch order, which means I’m picking up two orders from the same restaurant and they live relatively close together. A quick $15. Or at least I thought it would be. The whole time I was driving, I was on the phone with him and I was still mad. Irrationally mad. It’s like my mind was stretched in too many places. Driving, paying attention to the GPS, remembering to respond to him while he’s talking, thinking about what he said that pissed me off, and thinking about how Chick-fil-a forgot my effing straw. So I get outta my car to find this restaurant and it’s not where the GPS told me it would be. I had to call them and it was two streets over from where the GPS sent me...weird. I think it had recently moved to the new location. Anyway, as I’m walking back to my car, I realize that my keys are not hooked to my shirt like they usually are. I walked over to my window and saw my keys on the passenger seat. Yup, I was locked outta my car. I told Dro what happened and told him I’d call him back. I was very calm although I was frozen. I was completely lost on what to do about getting back into my car. I called Dro back and asked him what to do and he walked me through a few options. I was by a hardware store so I tried them first. I waited 20 minutes for nothing lol He walked two streets over to my car just to say “oh it’s locked. I can’t get into it.”...Still, I remained calm. Then he asked me about roadside assistance through my insurance company. I remained calm looking at my phone on 26% while I couldn’t figure out the password to get into my insurance app because I’ve only had to log in from my computer. The office was closed for the day. I got a hold of them, eventually, and they said someone would contact me in ten minutes. The whole time, I’m still on the phone with Dro. I said “I think I know how this happened” I told him that I was upset at something he said and he, rightfully so, asked why it bothered me so much. That was a very reasonable question because it really didn't mean anything to me, but I still lost my shit. I was walking up and down the street cussing him out, yall. I was letting him have it!! And while I was yelling, I felt myself being irrational but I couldn’t stop. I unleashed things on him that weren’t meant for him. I didn’t realize that until later, though. Yes, I apologized for the parts that weren't for him. Some of it was his, though lol Some guy pulls up and says “you locked out?” This man doesn’t tell me anything about himself, doesn’t ask me who I am or proof that this is my car. I said yes and he got to work on getting me into my car. When he was finished, he gave me his number and said I could contact him again in the future if I have this problem again. I think it’s important to note that Dro is a little over an hour away and he was still working. That’s why he didn’t come to my rescue lol I went home and had two shots of gentleman jack and ate three cheese coneys. Then it hit me....Thursday. May 13. My dad’s birthday. I had been holding it together. It’s like something in me wasn’t ok, but I couldn’t figure out why or what. Crazy, right. You forget things, but somehow you don’t at the same time.
