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...


Ahhhh yes, and so where were we on my purgings of late? Oh yeah, trying to figure out why I’ve made the choices I’ve made. Hmmmmmm….I guess that kind of remains to be seen. You know, when I’m...

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, ...

More Getting It Out

[I’ve decided to make this entry friends-only. I rarely write friends-only because I kinda like the idea of sending my thoughts out to anyone and everyone very randomly and anonymously, but as ...


Things I Loved Today: I loved treating myself to a really nice lunch and a book. I loved getting some poison out of my soul…felt really good to get out. I loved getting in touch with an old f...

Thoughts Out Loud

Having some time on my hands to think about things has been a good and a not-so-good thing. I like being able to sort through my life to try to figure things out, but at the same time, it’s pai...

JuPoThiMo #3: Things

Things I Loved Today: I loved talking on the phone with TMG [technically] this morning. He’s in Atlantic City at some kind of convention and I told him to walk over to a roulette table and put...

A Shift in the Weather

I think it’s going to rain today, so I’m using this time outside while I can. Maybe the rain will help me focus? Maybe it will make me feel cooped up and sad? I don’t know. Day 3 without c...

June Positives

JuPoThiMo OK. I’m going to try to do the positive thinking thing during the month of June. Let’s see where this gets me. 1. I have created an unbelievably amazing support system here on OD ...

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...


Re: Title of this entry: That was something that someone shouted from a top-floor window (possibly the roof of the building?) as I was driving into the parking area of my loft building the oth...


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...


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 we’re talking. This is the part of “this break” that I was truly looking forward to: the rest, relaxation, and sun. I’m on the roof of the building, sitting in a lounge chair by the...

Tired

It’s really so exhausting. They say that you have to go out and create your own destiny and your own happiness, and I get that. But there IS NO REST!! See? There doesn’t seem to be the end o...


So, my old fucking company is fighting unemployment, stating I was fired for….ready for this?? MISCONDUCT!! Yeah, me, the chick who LOVED her job and would do ANYTHING to protect it (and her D...


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!

Day…whatever in my unemployment. I’ve already lost count! I have been chillin’ folks, plain and simple. Been pretty OK so far. I’m enjoying the rest. My sleep. My sanity. I’m actually goi...

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...
