So last month there was some soul searching and general restlessness...and a little bit of anxiety and depression. This month things seem to be mellowing out a great deal. Could it be a string of...

So after 9 months and 40+ interviews I finally have a new job. The people are nice, the location is perfect, commute works out fine, and I can wear flip flops (first time ever at a job!). I bought a...

I've updated the progress to 45% only because it's May so the year is *gasp!* almost half over.  I have been either walking for an hour or doing step aerobics for a half hour 5 times a week. I walk...

I'm totally stressed out, depressed, and tired :( Justin (my bf) got laid off back in March and can't find a job, so we're also quite poor. He's bummed out that he can't find a job, and it's very...

Holy shit, I gained 4 pounds in ONE fucking day. I feel like a total fucking whale. My pants are unzipped halfway down - it's that bad. Not only did I gain 4 pounds in one day, I am now the heaviest...

Parents everywhere lie to their children on a daily basis and I just think that's fucked up. They tell them "You can be anything you want to be, do whatever you set your mind to...where there's a...
