Finally Losing Again
Dec 03, 2006
I haven't had a hamburger or cheeseburger from a fast food restaurant since I had my surgery in January of 2005, but last night I broke down and went to Carl's Junior. I had the sour dough bacon cheeseburger. I ate most of the sandwhich, but wound up throwing the remaining bread away. I'm not a huge fan of bread, but the sandwhich was pretty good.
I've decided that I am going to go back to school in the Fall. I am tired of living check to check, so I am going to pursue my Ph.D. in Literature. I am so excited to finally be doing something. I am currently preparing for the GRE's, and hating every minute of it. I am not a test taker, and my math skills are non-existent. I don't know how I did so well in math when I was in High School. Well, I will be on my way to buying a basic math review book. I know that once I refamiliarize myself with the concepts, I will do okay.
Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired

Today was a day that should have been spent in bed. I had to go to work which is always fun on a Saturday. Saturday is the new Monday when you work in a call center. People are home from work looking for ways to spend money.
I spoke to someone who bought a 2007 Porsche Carrerra, and boy was I jealous. I love cars, and would love to have that kind of money to go out make a purchase like that. I guess I will always end up dreaming of fortunes because I lack the impetus to follow through on my ideas.
I guess I'm lucky because there is always someone who is much worse off than you. I have come along way since I left my old job. I've lost more weight, and gained more self confidence.

You say Get A Hobby! I have several, but you can only do needlepoint/cross-stitch for so long or until your hand cramps up before you start having that stupid argument again. It's always the same, and it's really getting old.
"You know there's diet ice cream in the freezer."
"Yeah, so!"
"Well, you've been good today, so why don't you have some?"
"Because I'm not hungry."
"But you know you want it."
"Yes, but how is that going to help me lose the last of the 20 lbs that keeps hanging on?"
"There's always tomorrow."
The argument goes on until I have to either eat the ice scream or go to bed. Tonight I ate the ice cream, and it was good.
