Want to know more about this whole “miserable failure” thing? It’s a google bomb, and it’s not the first (example: “french military victories“)
It’s not that hard to start one, as all you have to do is get enough links from such-and-such a phrase to such-and-such a site. I’m sure there are plenty out there, but [...]

broke again

And I had been so good, so careful, I counted every little thing, and then suddenly I have these things I don’t need and can’t return because the receipts are gone and the things I could return I won’t because we needed those and it’s just such a damned stupid mess.
I hate this. I hate [...]

little debbie homemaker

Let’s keep this one short.
I’m hungry. There’s negative food in the house (that’s when you run out ot regular food and start looking at all that weird stuff in the pantry that you don’t even remember buying), and I keep spending money on things that are not food.
On the plus side, we now have a [...]

whoops

This is a bit belated because my brain convinced me that it was happening today even though it’s mid-week but congrats to Ariela for snagging a man and getting a ring. Send me wedding pictures! Or a video, if there is one. Then it’s like I was actually there, even though I wasn’t! =)

Christmas Countdown: 2 freakin days
I only have one present left to buy. Joe and I will be visiting some near-by cousins for Christmas Day, but we have no plans for a Christmas Dinner. This, being my First Christmas All On My Own, is important to me. I’m not willing to give up Christmas Dinner.
I called [...]

it’s not the same

We have a Christmas tree which is very cute and tastefully decorated. I’m very pleased with it.
This is my first Christmas on my own, and there will be absolutly nothing about it that is at all like Christmases before.
For one, my parents won’t be here. i won’t be in my old house. We won’t be [...]

suck

I have spent an obscene amount of money on Christmas presents this year. However, I’m giving some really kick-ass gifts.
The bad news is, because my pay check for next week will be significantly smaller, my hours having been cut from one of my jobs, that I won’t be able to pay rent. Which means I [...]

ding fries are done

Even though life seems pretty crappy right now, Leslie Harpold’s advent calendar makes it all better, just for a little while.
Time is moving way too fast. I may have to take another year off before starting grad school. I’m very disappointed with myself.
On the plus side, I think I’ve figured out what I’d like to [...]
