When She Was Bad

Feeling out of sorts...for no particular reason.

Ok, here are some reasons:

1. Walmart has discontinued my recycled-paper hardback notebook that I use specifically for my Secrets Journal.

2. I want to take Stu to see Despicable Me but because of having exactly $0.00 fun money this month I can't (but I WILL take him next month!)

3. S.C. is trying to tax Stu's business $1330.00 because we didn't know we had to pay in quarterly (but they are charging us for stuff we bought in N.Y. with money we got back from taxes THIS year. So hopefully we'll only owe a few hundred dollars. Pray, please)

4. When people gang up on me (or when I feel like they are) I get defensive, which makes me crabby.

5. I feel like people don't listen to me or take my advice. (Not that they have to, but I'd like to at least be acknowledged)

6. Work is about to get crazy (although some of it will be fun crazy) with school starting back.

7. I still have dishes in the sink.

8. My house is a mess (continually).

9. Parker keeps drinking bowls of water and then bouncing around and then spitting it everywhere...but I didn't see the last puddle because it was on the rug and I STEPPED IN IT. ...GROSS.

10. I am not good at a) not complaining b) saying only nice things.

And now for the positive:

1. Stu has fallen in love with my chili recipe
2. I got some of the dishes done.
3. I got to see Roz Stanley and heard from my old roommate this week
4. Ruth, Jen and I got to exercise tonight
5. Stu's mom sent me a HUGE box of awesome clothes! And a new pair of tennis shoes!
6. Violet's Monster: Volume II is completely outlined
7. I can feel the muscles building in my body
8. I finally made a good pitcherful of hawaiian punch koolaid
9. I got to see Despicable Me (!!!), Salt, and Inception
10. Gina let us borrow 30 Rock season 1-3

So...yeah. Things are rough...but there are some nice spots inbetween.

Although I wouldn't be opposed to shooting something with a BB gun or having a date with the punching bag.

Cosmetology School is looking more and more like the direction I should go. That and probably photography. Both will end in well-paid job potentials and possibly future career(s) in theatre/television.
