h0tcumm0dity's blog post - what are the odds?

I got hit on in front of my mother. I do not handle that kind of thing well, in case you were wondering.

just to get this out of the way: I am still in the big city. (I have not been back to the small town in over 2 months; I should be going back for a visit sometime this month.) I have a lot of family close by and my mother happens to live here as well. I am somewhat of an introvert and don't have too many friends. I end up hanging out with her a lot. that might sound lame to some of you but my mom is a blast. I enjoy her company immensely and she is hysterical. one of her favorite places to go is the casino. I do like going to the casino but I'm not one for gambling. I enjoy playing slot machines and I enjoy winning even more that doesn't happen as often as I'd like for it to, so I usually have a good time sipping free drinks, shopping and using points I've gathered to purchase gourmet dinners that would normally be expensive but aren't so much when points are exchanged for restaurant gift cards

anyway, we walked onto the floor of the casino and I got carded right away. this is the first time this happened at the casino. I *despise* being carded. I don't know why, I just do. most of the time when I order a drink, I just say "I'll take a margarita. hold on, I'll get you my I.D." before they ask for it because I dislike being asked so much. when the security guard asked for my I.D., I was under the delusion my mom was going to get carded as well. she asked him if he needed hers, and he said no and looked at me. I paused for a moment and then I started looking in my purse for my wallet. then he said to me "why did you make a face just now?"

lmao. I probably did make a face.

so I just said "what? I didn't make a face." then he asked me to smile and I asked him why and he said "because you'd be pretty if you smiled." then my mom said "yes, isn't she pretty when she smiles?" or something like that. and he said "she's pretty now but she'd be prettier if she smiled." ugh, fml. my mom does not need to witness that kind of thing.

another security guard hit on me but luckily my mother wasn't around for that one.

last week I was walking around near school and this boy yelled "hey sexy" at me. he was riding on a school bus and he could not have been older than 13 or 14. that made me laugh.

there was a photo shoot at my school. I had to complete an entry form and write an essay. today I got an email saying that I was the only person who entered so they had to cancel the shoot *sigh* but they are still inviting me to partake in the prizes that were offered, even if the photo shoot is off.

I was called in to interview as a tutor and then was told that they weren't doing interviews anymore. I felt like I was being punk'd, lol. there is a chance that I might be able to interview as a tutor in the fall, assuming they're not going to hire everyone they're interviewing at the moment. we'll see. I have an interview to be a peer mentor coming up, hopefully that works out. I need some sort of on campus job.

until next time,
