Mary Mary and the 5th Horseman
We certainly did not want to miss our flight to Charlotte. We had a party to attend and we intended to rock it to the max. My traveling partner, Yemi was getting toasted by a German lady who loved his mandigo looks.
Just when we thought we should be boarding, an announcement came over the PA system. "For passenger to Charlotte, your plane has landed in Boston but is looking for a parking space."
Only in Boston!!! We don't have parking spaces on our streets and now we don't have parking spaces at the airport. Other flights had to leave before that plane could park. I am surprised the pilot didn't need to stop and ask for directions to the terminal.
But you know, this is Boston and people have called Boston a strange place. I mean, if we don't have parking spaces on the streets and at the airport, will it surprise you that we don't have parking spaces in our hearts?
Could that be why the guys and gals are complaining about a lack of space to park their hearts without getting an emotional ticket. Or better yet, many are trying to park in the spaces that could fit their hearts but sometimes either the parking spaces don't fit or as soon as they decide to park their hearts after moments of indecision, someone ahead of them maneuvers into the spot.
Yeah, you all know what I mean. I will give you various examples
I have my friend, God Bless his heart, I am beginning to think that even if love hit him the head, he might not know it. I won't blame the lady in question if she has to take out an advertisment (which won't cost her anything) but it seems to me that that parking space has been empty, she has the car and wants that spot. I wonder if my friend can stop being a meter maid and let her park her heart there.
My next example kinda illustrate what my friend Darkberi would call "The Fast Chick Factor" (T.F.C.F) akin to that driver who parks in your spot while you are busy deciding whether you want to park in the space.
Tebunmi was the toast of the town, all the guys wanted her, dates were no problem. There was one guy she really wanted but she still figured playing hard to get was good game to play.
I guess she didn't hear the referee blow the whistle cos when "she" decided her game was over, someone else had parked in the parking space!!! Yeah, there are fast chicks.
I love my friends, I like to hook them up too. In trying to hook up people, I give them phone numbers to call. Problem is some people are so cheap that 7 cents a minute seem to inhibit their love life. They can't seem to pick up the phone to call. Oh and please, if you are in the toasting stage of any relationship, it is safe to say that using internet phones such as dialpad where all you hear are echoes is not kosher.
Okay, nobody wants to deal with long distance relationship but hey, what makes you think you are in the right city or that the person you are meant to be with is in that city???
I don't limit my hookups to Boston alone after all, like I tell my friends, you could meet "THE ONE" when you are boarding your flight to Nigeria this Xmas, the person could be sitting next to you on the flight, it might be that person that smiles seductively at you while you are transiting London or Zurich, so watch out and please dress to kill too. Sweating in Lagos will not matter anymore after the deal has been sealed right?
For real though, I met some ladies in Charlotte, actually one of them is on the Umunna list.
Thelma is a really nice person, good cook and for the interested guys, I have a picture. I still have to ask her for the recipe for that slamming jollof rice. Taste it and you will be doing cartwheels!!!
Like I said, a parking space is in the headlights of the beholders. I will be happy to accept inquiries about parking spaces.
