Bought myself just a little bit more time before I leave to attend TWO milestone birthday parties (one 40th and one 50th…my friends are getting up there, folks). Last night didn’t really go a...
Ashes, Ashes, We All Fall Down
Ahhhh yes, and so where were we on my purgings of late? Oh yeah, trying to figure out why Ive made the choices Ive made. Hmmmmmm .I guess that kind of remains to be seen. You know, when Im...
JuPoThiMo #5: Five*
JuPoThiMo I’m heading out to a Happy Hour, and I figure if I don’t do this now, I’ll never get it done. And what better time to talk about positives than before Happy Hour, right? 1. Today, ...

The Table Turns
As you probably have been thinking because of my lack of writing about anything of substance regarding my love life or EXMS, the “time out” with him didn’t last too terribly long. We talked pre...
Angels
At around 4am, when I started writing the previous entry, I also sent a text to TMG. He called me right around the time I hit the “send” button. He talked with me for an hour, and then found u...

Updates on Dumb Old Job Stuff
Ups and downs. Back and forth. I thought that the phone interview for the potential job went well. I talked to a “training” person. I guess she’s part of HR for this company. I told her a...
A Couple of Good Things:
1. I woke up this morning with a weird feeling. I hadn’t heard back from the unemployment office, so I logged onto the website to see if any of my status had changed. Good news! It appears I...
This Break
Okay, now were talking. This is the part of “this break” that I was truly looking forward to: the rest, relaxation, and sun. Im on the roof of the building, sitting in a lounge chair by the...
Tired

Note-Passer, Mother’s Day, etc.
Monday morning: rainy and dreary. I kind of like it. Sort of. I told you that I sent a quick one-liner email to the note-passer from church. And I went to church yesterday. Instead of sitt...
It’s Been a Year*
I opted to stay in tonight, even though I was invited to a birthday party (do not know the honoree) and dinner with Maria and someone else I don’t know. Was going to go out with Cindy, but she ...

Hi Ho!

OK *AARGH EDIT*
OK. Where do I even start? Thanks for all of the advice. I’ll let you know how things go from here. First things first, I filed for unemployment. I know the company’s gonna try to fight i...
Inconsistencies
OK…here’s what went down (because I need to get this out…I’m bursting!): At first, as you know, I was supposed to have my 60-day Follow-up meeting with my boss and HR on Tuesday afternoon. Tha...
What Happened.*
I got fired. I don’t feel like detailing it out right now, but yes, it happened. *edit: again, not really into getting into the nitty-gritty, but let’s just say it was not the best of situati...
