In Honor...

In honor of my shitty day (see previous entry), I ate 10 sugar cookies. Self harm? Then I had a Zoom meeting this afternoon. Zero glitches, naturally. I gave a great presentation, and when it ...


Whelp. The presentation interview with Giant Corporation is over, and I am…slightly devastated. I did so much fucking work on this project. Like, hours and hours of digging through numbers and...

Low-Key

And it's Friday

Just because I’m no longer on FB or IG doesn’t mean I’m not getting the news. What do you all think about Trump getting Covid? Hmmmm? I don’t wish him death, but I certainly hope that this wil...

Debate Hangover

Hungover. That’s truly how it felt this morning when I woke up. I told myself not to watch the debates since my mind will never be changed, but I couldn’t help myself when I turned it on. And ...

Video Interview

Hm. Not 100% sure how that went. Many times first interviews are a little iffy, but I still feel confident. Though, I will say I was a bit disappointed with something. I was on video and the ...

Ugh. Have you ever felt like everything was falling apart at work? Like, everybody is in a foul mood and stressed out because they can’t get their shit together (like…NOBODY) and then they lose...

I Knew It Would Happen

So…I knew this would happen. I was furloughed for nine weeks due to Covid, right? And then I was called back to work. Great! We all said. Now I have my job back and everything is hunky dory, ...

And THIS is Why I'm Single

I turned down a date tonight. So what am I doing at 8:45 on a Saturday night? Lounging in bed in jammie pants and a tank top with a bowl of popcorn, a sleeve of Starburst, a can of bubbly water ...

Not Quite Normal
