The Invisible Man

When I was growing up, stuff would come up missing in the house, moved, broken, etc. When this happened, my mom always asked "Who did it?" Jessica (my lil sis) and I would always say "Not me!". So my mom would be sarcastic and say "Oh, I guess the Invisible Man did it!?. Jess and I would make jokes about it, laugh and keep it moving. (If I did it, I always fessed up...I think ;) Anywho. I just want to let the world know he is real....The Invisible Man.


He is living in my house, eating food, moving stuff around and I believe he taking our things and selling them to make money at yard sales on Saturdays. He needs to be paying rent. It would be easier on me and Branden if the rent was split 3 ways with the cost of gas. By the way, that's Branden's housecoat he has on!!!! Let me tell you what he has done.

  • He moved my towel everyday this weekend. Everytime I went to bathe, I couldn't find it.
  • He took my black sports bra and I know he let his girlfriend, The Invisible Woman, wear it before he returned it.
  • My Just Wright dvd went missing....oh that was Branden. He didn't want me looking at Common too much lol!
  • Ok....my pink hand weights have disappeared. Now I'm mad about them because I really use them. Give me my weights back PUNK!!!
  • Branden's cross color shirt that I despise...um yeah... that wasn't The Invisible Man
  • Those plastic bowls and forks B has had since freshaman year...personally, he can have those
  • Towels that have clorox stains on them that Branden claims his grandma gave him...
  • The charger for my Nook is gone toO and he eats my yogurt
  And he has done much more@! Branden claims he doesn't know where half of my stuff is and is always saying I have too much of everything...I think they are in cahoots with each other...

Date Night!

We typically have date night on the weekends. They range from movies to painting :) Tonight I didn't have to dress up. I got to wear one of my Alabama t-shirts and my Sperrys.

I am a book junkie. Reading is my crack. I could read all day and not touch my remote. Honey made a good choice!

I gathered my books and settled in a chair with my Green Tea Latte. It was yummy!

I usually go to Books A Million because it's closer to the house. I like them too because I read alot of christian fiction and they have a section just for African American fiction. (makes the books easier to find)  I was walking around aimlessly and found this book. I only got to read for an hour but it was a great book. "God grant me the Serenity" by Adrienne Fox. Guess what?! She is a graduate of the University of Alabama! Roll Tide!

This was a simple yet fun date. Oh and we ate at Purple Onion afterwards.


What are some of the things you like to do on date night?
