What do I do?!

Hi again!

I couldn't just leave you with that last post without writing about all the crazy good things that have happened in February! I would never do that, because life is too wonderful and too short to dwell on careless people, when I have the most wonderful people surrounding me! So, what do I do when I am coming out of a funk? Well, I just go ahead and have the trillest Black History Month (which is every month, I'm tired of reminding everyone of this) on record. Here are some of those trill things that I did. In list form of course, because duh, it's me:

1. I went to see Black Panther! Not once, but twice! And probably going to see it again, to be honest. It's for the culture, don't @ me! Shout-out to the fam for that amazing day.

2. Went to the ballet! Not once, but twice! Saw Modern Masters performed by the Joffrey Ballet and then I went to go see Misty Copeland with Shantel and Shanel! Not sure what company she is with and frankly, I do not care. I was there for Misty and Misty only.

3. Had a couple of amazing night outs! One being the night before Black Panther were I got to wear my absolutely amazing white sneakers and didn't scuff or scratch them. I like to thank the power of the opening weekend that was Black Panther for that one! I also got told I look like a singer and my head and heart grew three sizes that night. 
I also got the title for this post from that night. As Cady sat at a table while I was getting drinks (free drinks as it turned out!), two young men were standing by and having a conversation at our table. One of the young man turns and sees Cady, and proceeds to ask his friend, what do I do?! Cady proceeds to burst out laughing and the young men quickly found other things to do.
Young man, I'm about to give you some pro tips so that you are never in that particular situation again. You are at a bar! Literally the whole system is set up for you to win! A great thing to do, is buy me a drink. Extra points if you notice my drink is low and happen to peep what I am drinking and then get me another one. But, this one is hard to do without seeming like you are a creep. I don't have time to school you on all that. Good luck young man, wherever you are. But, since you are young and white, I'm sure you won't have very many problems in life. 

4. Go out on a school night. Now, I wouldn't recommend this. Only do this if your friend is on the aux board of Chicago Gateway Green and is throwing a bomb event with alcohol, food, darts, and the trillest photo booth. Totally worth the hangover I had the next day. Shout-out to Cady for being that aux board member and shout-out to Lezlee for coming with me!

5. I probably also went shopping at some point, because there is no therapy quite like retail therapy.

And that is it! Five simple things I did to get myself out of a funk. On to March we go!
