Atlanta Dreaming

Yes! I have been and still am dreaming about the best weekend ever in Atlanta. Now if you know me, you know that I am in the "A" several times yearly. So you might ask whats so different about this trip? Why am I all of a sudden dreaming of Atl? Easy! My lady made her first trip there. This was our first weekend away and it was the best!

I arrived on Wednesday last week and she came in Friday night. BTW I will never put her on American Airlines again. But that's another story. When I finally saw her at the airport I almost lost it. She is such a beautiful woman with a smile to brighten any night. I had to give her the tightest bear hug ever. And the kiss had my heart racing once again.

After we left the airport we stayed over at my cousins apartment with his newlywed. It was a good evening introducing her to them, and they were so hospitable. We ate and watched their wedding video and enjoyed some good laughs. Great night!

Saturday we overslept and missed going to the MLK center with my home girl who was in town also with one of her girlfriends. So we went by my aunts home and I introduced her to both my aunt and uncle then changed clothes to start our day. We had breakfast then went to the Underground Mall. (The Underground has changed so much... for the worst) There we met up with my home girl and toured the area along with Peachtree. We then came back to my cuz apartment to relax and have a little alone time. We were supposed to meet up once again with my home girl to attend the Old School party but again we overslept and wound up getting there around 11pm. But again, a great time. We ended our evening around 4am back at my aunts home.

Sunday morning again we slept late. I got my baby's schedule all messed up by now. She went with me to pick up my little cuz from the airport because she is attending CAU (Clark Atlanta Univ.) We had a brief tour of the campus and her dorm. We took her to the store to pick up a few items and went to grab a bite to eat before dropping her off for the evening. After CAU we decided to go to the MLK (Martin Luther King) center. There the ignorance was bliss! Young girls taking booty pics and a older man taking a piss. All happenings on the grounds of MLK center! Lord help them! We then went back to my aunts home then proceeded to another one of my cousins home so I could introduce her. We left there around 9:30 pm and went to the show to see Orphan. Then we ended our night after that. Another great day... besides the foolishness at MLK.

Just as Friday was the highlight of my weekend with my baby, Monday morning I was at my lowest. I woke up knowing that Monday would be the last day. She would be taking a flight home that afternoon. My aunt and uncle, which whom I appreciate so much for their hospitality treated us to breakfast. After breakfast we had to take the long ride back to the airport. It was hard seeing her go as I stood outside of the security checkpoint watching her until I could no longer see her. It was hard but I thought about all the quality time we were able to spend with one another and I had to crack a smile.

My family gave me rave reviews for my baby. They could see in an instance what I noticed when we first met. They noticed that she might be the once. She is definitely a special woman. Just right for me. I will most definitely be blogging about her again. :-)
