I've managed to make plans with people a bit more lately. Managed to catch up more too. So why do I feel so disastrously alone?

So yesterday I made Garlic chicken, roasted corn, and steamed broccoli and green beans. Today I made Jasmin rice, chicken and snow peas. Oh and AMAZING homemade organic butter. My niece and nephew are in love with it. Tomorrow I'm considering making Austrian goulash and steamed snap peas if i can just find a good austrian goulash recipe. If not ( Read more... )

Today has been an abnormally productive day. I owe my mother 275 dollars but on the bright side have cheaper car insurance than I've ever had in my life and most importantly, I can legally drive my beloved Red Raven around once more. I'm still reeling from the expenses though. I gave my mother all the money I had on me. That knocked it down to the ( Read more... )

I'm rather consistenly reminded I'm not allowed to fall into a stress induced coma. I'd like to though. 2 weeks unconcious eating through my arm not having to intentionally ignore anyone just. 2 weeks of meditation dreams or whatever else happens therein.

In his new high-stress, low-reward position, Obama will be charged with such tasks as completely overhauling the nation's broken-down economy, repairing the crumbling ( Read more... )

So, today held its share of ups and downs. I had thought since I managed to finalize that shite referred to as car insurance, it would finish on a good note. How silly am I? I'm sitting here binging on billy connolly stand up when suddenly I note that I have a faint itch on my shin. No biggie. Reach down, drag nails across denim covered leg. ( Read more... )

 I was asked recently if the source of my problems could be a quarter life crisis. In full seriousness at that. I decided to look up signs of a quarter life crisis.

• feeling "not good enough" because one can't find a job that is at one's academic/intellectual level
• frustration with relationships, ( Read more... )

 So it's not quite 3 am like I have 7 whole minutes till 3. I must be at work in 6 hours. There's something tragic to this picture I paint because, frankly i can't sleep.

Almost four years ago, I was sent to the sarasota store to work one evening. I was still fairly new, I felt more out of place than words can describe. When I walked through the door though I was greeted by 3 blondes. One of these was Ms. Kimberly Ann Justice. She treated me like i was a regular there. I never forgot that feeling of acceptance and ( Read more... )
