Totally went back to sleep today. Missed all the parades. Ah well, I'll catch them next year. I hope I can still get to sleep tonight.
I am feeling like I've hit a plateau in a lot of ways. Waiting to see what that means, and how I can move past it. I'm coming to terms with the fact that I've been financially irresponsible for pretty much my whole life, and that digging myself out will be very hard. I've just barely gotten to living within my means, and that's been super difficult. Staring down a long road of being broke, and not liking it.
Meh. Anyone wanna come over and pet my hair?
I will pat your hair. ::pets smonster::
ChiKat - I am so sorry, love. Losing a pet is so very hard. Thinking of you lots.
Aww. I'm sorry smonster. I'm having similar issues with my eating habits--I've been on a strict diet for about a week and a half, and have cheated most days (though not too badly--only the day I had 1.5 cupcakes in celebration of the new job was super bad). And the thing is, much as it's hard for cravings, it's a little embarassing and horrifying to realize I'm quite full on what I'm eating, even though it's probably half what I would normally eat. But I don't WANNA! I wanna eat whatever I want! But I'm really get to a point where I can't--I weigh almost 40 pounds more than when I moved to Seattle. And that's not good for me at all (not just in how I look at myself!)
Also grumpy because I gave in to temptation and texted the girl from Saturday night...several hours ago with no response. Sigh. I thought we had a good time. Who knows.
Our counter offer was accepted!
sj, I almost wish you could call that other agent and tell her.
Hooray, sj! Some very welcome and excellent news on a day that's been tough for some of us.
OMG REALTOR COMEUPPANCE FTW!
smonster, I'm sorry you're blue about the road of financial strictness ahead. I think it's normal, though, after the first few weeks of the "honeymoon" phase, when the new routine is exciting and, well, new. Doesn't make it any easier though.
It's OK to miss parades, don't worry! The locals we hang out with are wired for Mardi Gras... we still need to pace ourselves. Tom's staying in tonight and tomorrow.
That's great news, sj!! I love the new house!
