  • Can I also say how strange the different weather feels??  I spent 2 weeks in 20-35 degree weather, now it's 70.  My body doesn't even know what to do with that!

  • Why does applying for a job take so long??  Between updating the resume, writing a cover letter, and whatever online application process has to be done, it takes like 2 hours to apply for 1 stupid job!

    That's no fun! Hopefully it is all work well spent, & you get a job!

    Omg. Has anyone seen the Casey Anthony video blog?! She is insane! 

    I didn't watch it, but I read an article about it on MSN.  I refuse to give her much attention because I think she is a horrible person who was not convicted on technicalities and a prosecution who did not completely prove their case, NOT because she didn't do it. Just my opinion.

    Was she wearing a blonde wig or has she died her hair?  I do wonder what kind of life she can possibly lead now--even if she WERE/IS innocent.  How will she find a job, friends, a husband...do you just become a recluse because no one wants to be associated with you?

    I despise this weather.  Grrrr.

    When you find the answer to this question please fill me in.  Back to applying in the big D?

    I just devoured an entire bag of popcorn. Mmm so good!

    How much protien does that have in it?  I could go for some right now, but only if it will get me to my required 75 grams.  Today I learned that 27 Cheez-Its has 3 grams of protien...totally worked towards my goal.  :)

    I hope so!  What happened with your DH and the job in Vegas I think it was?

    Yup.  Back at it.  I have a feeling I'll be doing a lot of that over the next little bit.

    I agree with you 100%, I feel in my heart she took that girls life because of her selfishness. Jose Bias is an effing JOKE. 

    The entire video consists of her saying she finally has something that is HERS, a computer. & that she has finally adopted, a dog. What a moron. 

    ETA, it's a wig. It looked so bulky on her head.

    We are still waiting on HR to either refer his app to a Vegas hiring official, or deny it.

    I kind of don't want to uproot my life, it sucks starting over, but it will be the desert, and SO close to my family.

  • So I'm torn what to do with my old ring (from XH).  It's not my original engagement ring (which I think I'm going to try to sell, but I don't see getting more than $500 or so for it).  It's the "upgrade" I got about 1.5 years in.  I paid for 1/2 of it with some pre-wedding savings that I had.  Do I keep it and turn it in to something else?  I was thinking turn it in to a pendant, then take the pendant that I have (.8 ct) and get a matching stone in the future and make them earrings).  Or do I try to see it (I'm guessing I'll only get about 1/2-2/3 of what we paid) and use it to pay down my car? 

    I asked G what he thought about me keeping it when I was up there, and he was fine with it as long as I don't wear it as a ring, espeically since it's not "the" ring that X proposed with.

    It's to much crazy to handle, I couldn't watch the entire video. Plus it's boring.

    Have you ever tried apples on them? To. Die. For. Best one I ever made was sourdough, smoked provolone, and thin slices of granny smith apple.

  • I feel sad today.  All weekend really.  I don't know if it's just missing being around G or what.  But I just can't shake it.  I got teary eyed talking to G on the phone before my bff's party last night.  I sobbed watching the DVR'd Grey's Anatomy (I guess that's not so surprising).  I just want to get up there and start having a "normal" life and relationship.  Or at least to have him there to hug me and tell me it will be ok if I get in these funks.
