Tammy should be excited about the election results coming in.

Tammy could be thankful that someone invited her over to hang out.

Tammy can't help but feel inadequate and angry.

Tammy is sad but tears lead to puffy eyes.

Tammy is crying on the inside and a little on the outside.

I feel like I've been carrying around a huge weight lately. While there isn't one major thing that is bothering me, I do believe this is just the culmination of many smaller issues all banding together to make me miserable. The huge weight on my chest has been present for the last few days but I feel like today it is making everything impossible ( Read more... )

Just when I thought that I had my budget and spending habits under control, I find out that I forgot to factor in one last outstanding loan. Apparently this whole time I've only been paying on student loans from undergrad and next month I have to start paying back my grad school loans. That puts me at $700 a month for student loans.

I just completed my first ever trail run. And I must say that while my body is screaming at me, it feels weirdly amazing. Only two more months until my half-marathon. And only about a million more miles to run.

It's crazy how quickly your whole mood and sometimes even your whole outlook on life can change. I would call it "going into a funk" if it was just a passing thing, but I've been feeling depressed since Saturday night. It completely came out of nowhere. I've been trying to blame it on the weather since the last few days have been gross and rainy ( Read more... )

*I just posted this entry in the January 1, 2008 community. I just added it hear too so I won't forget about it. For anyone who doesn't know, the January 1, 2008 community is a group for people who created a list of 101 things they'd like to accomplish in 1001 days. Everyone posted their list of goals and started working on accomplishing them on ( Read more... )
