Between Hearts - Update on Sunday

I don't have the bandwidth for a chapter tonight, but I will tell you a funny story about my answered prayers, coz wow! 
          
          So when I was young, I always wanted a busy man. Everyone around me knew if I'm going to date somebody, he has to be busy. I can't have a man in my face 24/7. In fact, be so busy that you don't even have a social life. Like my man has to be a busy man. I can't deal with random "I'm outside" texts, you don't just show up and tell me you came to see me. No. Book an appointment well in advance. I need to prepare mentally to be with a person and spend time with them and open up and be fun. It doesn't come naturally, I need to get myself in human interaction mode and if we're together for a weekend, I can't see you again for at least a month coz I'm recovering. And when I'm in recovery, don't even call me. I still love you, we're still together but leave me alone. And my man had to have some money so he can maintain 2 households because no way I'm living with a man. If we're staying together, the house must have 2 wings. He lives in the one and I live in the other. Then every once in a while I can go visit him and then come back to reset. 
          
          So when I met Hubs and he was all the way in another province and the right amount of busy? I was like yes Looord! This is my fish, I choose this fish and the Lord said "anything for you, my child", listen living the dream!
          
          Now imagine my shock as time goes on and I find myself  living with a man and having a time! It's just like, is there a way I can open up his skin, enter, and just live there? But noooo, I ordered a busy man and sometimes the busy man has to do the busy man thing and all I can do is sing sad songs and slide down walls. Lol can you ever!
          
          Anyway, moral of the story is: At least we know for sure God answers prayers so... a win is a win!

Someone said this festive season, we’re celebrating everything. If your baby is teething, let us know, we’re bringing cooler boxes! And you know what? Sign me up! We’re dressing up and we're celebrating! Your son just graduated potty training? I'm on my way with drinks for us and snack for the big boy. Call a DJ, I'm coming with my other friends.
          
          With that being said, it’s going to be important that we all wake up, bath, look good, and wait for calls coz we’re not waiting for anyone. If you’re not ready, we’ll send you the location. You can meet us there. Lol.
          
          Annnyway, we’ll do the Loving Me chapter tomorrow. I’m calling it a night. Goodnight

Okay so today I’m frustrated and everything is just pissing me off. But what really bored me to my core today is this conversation people keep having about how “everyone should work a corporate job for at least 2 years to learn systems.”
          
          Because what systems exactly?? Like are we talking ways of working? SOPs? IT systems? Processes? Office politics? What are we actually saying here?
          
          It’s the emptiest piece of advice ever. There’s a whole group of people saying this with their whole chest but not really saying anything.
          
          “Take what you can and go build your own thing.”
          Okay but what am I taking??
          How am I taking it??
          Give me a plan. Tell me what I should be observing, learning, copying, questioning from the moment I clock in to the moment I clock oooout-uuuh!
          
          Say more. Be specific. Give scenarios. Because this vague motivational stuff isn’t helpful to anyone. And then they wrap it up with:
           “With hard work and dedication, you can work the system in your favor.”
          
          Lol omg, lives were changed. We were never the same after that little bit of information. -_-
          
          I'M PISSED!

Do you know how I know corporate really isn't my aesthetic?
          
          Everyone showed up dressed for Halloween today and if you know me, you know I LOVE dressing up. But apparently, my love for costumes and make up stops at corporate. Who would've thunk it?
          
          When I tell you I’m never beating the "Spirit Day dropout" allegations. 

Bare with me please, work threw me a bit of a curveball. 

You said and I quote that you wouldn’t have me clutching my pearls and both chapters I was clutching lol 

Between Hearts: Got hit by a wave of inspiration for a plot, so I had to scrap the entire chapter to make the new vision work. Abeg, manage this information. I'm coming. Sharp.

Hello hiiiii, so I'm back! Boy, did I live life! Anyway, I need to make good on my promises, I knooooooow. I'm on it. Give me 2 days dearly beloveds. Kulungile, byee.
