Yes, I just got through seeing Act Like a Lady,Think Like a Man.  It was interesting.  I thought OMG, I am not as hot as the women in this film.  It’s not even about being them.  It’s about being confidant and myself.  I just need to be more confidant in me.

I am so all over the place right now.  I am living at home about to go blind okay just losing my sight from a degenerative eye disease.  I don’t want to be where I am now.  I want to be somewhere totally different.  I don’t want to be living with my mother at 30.  I don’t want to be single.  I don’t want to be at the supercenter.

Everyone seems to have the answers, well where the answers are for me.  I feel trapped.

Yes it’s been over 12 years since I’ve been to a prom.  But last night I had a big old prom dream.  It was set in present time.  My mother (real mother) was there and classmates (from 2000) was there but were 30.  And I was there as a senior in high school going to this prom.  It was at an amusement park.  It was a lot going on.  I forgot my dress and was in a tee shirt and shorts.  My mother had to come and bring me a dress.

I went online to my trusty dream dictionary and looked up prom.  And to my surprise it was not all bad.  It was to dream that you are at a prom, signals an end to something and the beginning of something else.  It refers to a cycles and the passage of time.  I’m saying to this I hope so.  Or it could mean that I watched the Prom episode of Glee too many times.

Yes, I am scared.  I am scared of so much right now.

I’m scared of . . .

  • staying in mega debt for the rest of my life
  • not finding a guy (I’m not desperate because I’d rather die alone than be with a a-hole)
  • not ever having kids
  • having my options of kids taken away from me
  • being the old maid people invite to parities
  • not being able to do what I really want to do
  • being fat forever
  • becoming a pessimist
  • living with my mom for the rest of my life
  • never finding a job

Honestly I;m just a glorified cashier.  And yesterday a manager seemed to mildly attack my attire.  I was wearing the same shirt and pants that I always wear when she asked me if they told me about the dress code in the particular area I’m in.  I tried to let it roll off like beaded water on a car windshield but the conversation was prolonged and I felt judged.

I did two things.  The first thing I brought it up to our collective supervisor, whom said yes they would like us to dress up in this particular area.  But she assured me what I had on was fine.  Then I went online and got my job description and checked the store dress code.  Neither said anything about dressing up for this particular area of the store.

So now I feel all down and in the outs.  Because my appearance isn’t what I would like it to be.  I would like to get my hair done every week, which would total out to $180 a month.  As for my attire, how the hell do you dress up a navy blue collared shirt and khaki pants.  If you guys have any suggestions please comment or email me.

Today is Saturday and I am okay that it’s Saturday.  I am working on  some things.  I finally have a true set schedule.  I am just working on getting my life more manageable.  They have given me a little raise at the supercenter.  I am indifferent about it.  I feel like I should be excited but I also feel like I should be doing and making a hell of a lot more.  I also have to figure out a schedule.  All goals have to be measurable and I am going to make a weekly calendar and branch out my plans.

I’m swamped with bills.  I am trying desperately to find another job.  I’m praying about it and all.  I sent my resume to my bestie to look over. I am still sending it out.

I graduated last weekend.  And I am broker than broke.

Just thought I should post something.

Talk about sexual awakening and you could be talking about Fifty Shades of Grey by E L James.  I picked up this book on a whim and didn’t start it until yesterday.  I’m finished with it now.  I still cannot believe they sell this book at Target!!!!!  I didn’t know the premise of the book and skated through reviews.  The book isn’t as racy as I thought it would be.  Guess I’m kinda not phased by S&M.  My brother’s girlfriend asked what the book was about and all I could say was that it’s a story about a girl and a boy.  The boy is controlling.  Anyway I love the book and would recommend it to any  of my friends (okay not all of my friends but the ones that are not holier than thou).

Pick the book up even if you’re prudish.  It’s like an adult version of Twilight.
