Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Unspecified ma~ Steph!

I'm pretty assertive but I would totally have done the same thing as you. They put you in a super awkward position!

Yeah, me too.

I helped get 2 ppl registered to vote this year. Not the door to door registration that I would have liked to do, but 2 more than I have ever done before. I hope they both vote.

ION the Tampons for Trump FB post. I would do get behind some mass effort to flood Trump/Pence offices with something signaling the backlash they have wrought.

Lunch with the Managing Director was pretty nice. I ended up sitting next to him because I got there a couple minutes late and he was even later, so that was where the empty seats were. Did not have an earth-shattering marketing idea or whatever to share, but good to have the face to face time, I suppose.

Thrive to spite them

~~ ma to Tep for all your needs.

And that was really rude and a bad position and I don't think many people would have been able to say no under those circumstances.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yeah, I am quite assertive and I would have said yes.

Putting on my big girl panties and dealing with the unchecked credit card use I've been racking up since the spring. Just opened a new 0% card and transferred a balance, so I have 15 months to get that paid off.

I have another balance, but I do not want to open another new account, so I am looking for info on a card I have but never use to see what rate they have for transfers. If nothing better than what the current card is then I will just draw up a payment plan for it and get busy.

Bottom line is NO SPENDING.

giving myself gold stars for taking coffee today, eating frozen dinner for lunch and leftovers for dinner. Cutting the eating out budget is the single easiest way for me to save - it is where most of my money goes. Coffee for tomorrow is already made and new cold brew has been started. 2 frozen dinners are in work freezer to get me through lunches for the rest of the week and I cooked up turkey burgers tonight to serve as dinners. BOOM! Take that shame spiral in my head - stupid low-level depression I will fuck you up with my fierce stubbornness and daily applied citalopram.

Third trip to IKEA in a week. But I did a blanket inventory, and did not have sufficiently warm enough blankets of the right size for the new bed to prevent dad from stealing the covers and pissing mom off. And because I am OVER multiple trips up there, I went a little insane. New desklamp for the new office (we all hate fluorescent overheads, my current officemate gets to keep current lamp, it's gonna be dark soon,) glass bowl for salads because finally one like my beloved one ( just in case,) new mattress pad for futon cause current is dying, under bed boxes to store new and old blankets, throw to keep fur off the nice quilt and FINALLY, a memory foam mattress topper for MY bed because I cannot justify a new mattress for me, but I'm loving the new spare, so it was going to happen eventually, and did I mention, three trips in a week? (Because my car could not contain all of that in even just 2.)

I'm sooooo nesting for winter. Now if only I could get a hold of a roofer.
