Money is truly the root of all evil
Who thought $4,719.49 might keep me from a love everlasting? Who ever conceived I'd be so shallow and greedy as to withhold myself from love for money? Not me. Though I've done so for the last two years, and it appears I will continue to do so for as long as it takes to get what I *think* I need.
Self loathing. I've never hated myself before now ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: I'm So Excited
I don't really have to answer to anyone anymore. No husband. Sure, I have to run things regarding the girls past the ex now and then, but if I find another way to do things, in most cases, it's my decision and mine alone. Haven't answered to my parents in many many years. The girls... maybe. Since it's technically my responsibility to feed, ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Dream Job
Four - seven years of school. So what's keeping me from that, hm?

Emotional Backlash
Your reaction to my most recent request is highly unbecoming. It makes me think perhaps I need the protection I’m trying to put in place. Perhaps you really were intending to welsh on our deal, and I’ve blocked you from it. Perhaps you are the lying cheating thief I’ve named you in my new mantra. Perhaps you are so offended that I could even ( Read more... ) -
Lately
My semi-stalker leaves two - three comments EVERY time he leaves one. He usually says the same thing each time, once in public and once in private. This bugs me. Today, it occurred to me that someone else may view me as a semi-stalker. Almost everything he posts publicly, I post a reply of some sort, usually privately. I find my hypocrisy ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Sick Day
I can stay in bed all day long and nobody will think ill of me... if I am ill.
I can watch movies all day long and nobody will care... if I am ill.
I can be waited on hand and foot and nobody will complain... if I am ill.
I can alternately read and sleep all day long and nobody will say a word... if I am ill.
I can feel well within my rights about ( Read more... ) -
Confused and Unsure
It was the comments as much as the tone in which they were spoken, and both combined really made me wonder.
I don't like to play games, and yet I catch myself doing so; head games with myself, waiting games with him... this relationship deserves a lot more than, "Oh yeah? Well, two can play that game!" So I must learn not to take things so ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Sharing is Caring
See, it's not the sharing I mind so much... my food, my last bits of change, hell, I'd even share my toothbrush with a few select people... what bothers me about sharing, particularly borrowing is when the borrower does not return whatever-it-is to the borrowee.
But what things would I be least likely to share?
My opinions about certain things with ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Work & Self-Worth
I believe every single one of my jobs has affected my self-worth, self-confidence, and self-image. Guess I'm not doing a good job of nurturing myself, instead allowing my 'good stuff' to come from outside sources. HOWEVER... I've had the good sense to leave positions in which I felt ... lessened in any significant way. Let's be honest, every job ( Read more... )
