Thrive to spite them

I still have to make an appt with the nutritionst I plan to see. First I have to get blood work done, when I get my car back.

I have food issues, I eat when I'm bored or tired or as a reward. And I suck at portion control. I have access to a kitchen scale and nice new measuring cups and spoons so I could figure out portions. But I'm lazy and I think there are other issues at work. Some of this stuff I figure I'll have to take up with my therapist and deal with it there.

The idea of being in shape and even a size 14 (which I was about 6 yrs ago) kind of freaks me out. I get freaked because losing weight and taking responsiblity is one more step to independence. Not that I have to be thin to be independent--- it's just that moving out, getting a full time job, taking responsiblity of my finances and my health and my eating habits it's all this grown up stuff. When it all comes together...well, then I'll be successful I think. Ready to leave this place. But it's scary because my urge to flee and avoid is so strong.

I am SO PISSED OFF.

I won't be getting my MA in a week because I still need 6 more hours of graduate credit. I found this out TODAY.

When dod I file my application for graduation? JANUARY

And they are telling me this 4 DAYS BEFORE GRADUATION.

I have NO financial aid left for summer, so I will have to wait till FALL to finish these credits.

I am FURIOUS.

Shit, Erin.

I'd be furious, too. Did they even apologize for not notifying you soon enough that you could do something about it?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Erin, furious would even begin to describe it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh, fuck, Erin. That totally sucks. Is it going to keep you from getting your certification?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Damn, Erin. I'm sorry.

That sucks, Erin. Where the hell was your graduate advisor? S/He should have been on top of this months ago.

Oh Erin. I'm so sorry. How maddening.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm so confused. Some eBay stores sell corsets by waist, some by bust. And some are even telling me that the girls are too big for the corset I want.
