Wedding Blog

Yesterday while Mr. Ladybug was taking a nap, I caught the middle of Diary of a Mad Black Woman. It’s about this woman, Helen, who married a wealthy lawyer, Charles, and after 18 years he threw her out of the house in front of his mistress. I don’t know if he was wealthy after they got married or before, but she wasn’t a gold digger. She truly loved him. Apparently he was very abusive to his wife and took her for granted.

She moves in with family and starts a journal about starting over. Then she meets Orlando and they fall in love. One night she’s sleeping over at his place and in the morning when she wakes up, he’s already making breakfast for her. She goes into the bathroom and is fixing her hair when she notices an engagement ring on her finger. He put it on her finger while she was sleeping! She turns around to walk out so she can confront him about it, and he’s already standing right outside the door! He says something along the lines of “I love you. I know you’ve been hurt but I won’t hurt you. I just want to take care of you. All you have to do everyday is get up in the morning and I’ll take care of the rest.”

I started crying like a lil bitch. Can you imagine waking up, doing your daily morning routine, you’re just totally oblivious like “lalalala lalalala,” and then all of a sudden you notice an engagement ring on your finger?!

Then towards the end she brings her ex husband with her to church, and he goes up to the front because he’s so moved by the gospel choir’s music. I just lost it again. Why am I such a lil bitch?

Thank God Mr. Ladybug was sleeping! He would have made fun of me. I want to go to a Baptist Church.
