Got the results of my hemoglobin A1C back (diabetics know what I'm talking about) and it was well down from the one I had done back in September. It's still a work in progress but, god drat, it's good to see hard work pay off.

My day was pretty crappy but to make up for it, I spent the night with bed, Arrested Development, my cat, and pot stickers. It was pretty fantastic.

Took 5 minutes to meditate and pray when I got home from work tonight and it made all the difference. Helped make dinner, did dishes, took care of recycling/trash/etc., even stayed off the 'net until just now when I submitted some more kick-rear end job applications. Normally these sorts of things stress me out or are more difficult than they should be. Now I'm not even anxious about the phone interview I have tomorrow. Need to meditate more often.

I got a job! I start next week part-time then move to full-time after I graduate! I don't have to start collecting cardboard boxes and searching for a nice overpass to live under! Only took two months and 62 applications to get there. In this economy, that's not half-bad.

I finally took the advice of my friends and axed a toxic relationship. On Valentine's Day. Then I went and spent the money I would have spent on her on myself. Maybe that's selfish, but in hindsight I've been a royal prick to my friends for this girl, and now I can get back to being myself.

Feb 14 2012 - Today is awesome because I got to start playing Assassin's Creed. It is such a ridiculously fun game. Also, we've made some progress in Charlie's (our cat's) diagnostics and she is now on antibiotics.

I didn't get to post about it yesterday, but I finally landed a job. It's nothing exciting, just a 3rd shift position at the local Tim Horton's, but I've really, really missed having spending money. I've been frugal as gently caress for a long time, only treating myself to things when I've managed to get freelance work. Now I'll be able to buy myself stuff without feeling guilty about it and worrying when the next time I'll be able to earn that money back will be. Content for today: My boyfriend stopped by this evening for hugs and cuddles and a promise that we'd do something fun and exciting to belatedly celebrate Valentine's day this weekend. I didn't think I'd see him at all this week, so it was a really nice surprise Solid Cake has a new favorite as of 06:48 on Feb 15, 2012 |

I just destroyed an entire pizza (double mushrooms, my favorite!) and am now settling in with a beer and some Skyrim. So I guess my day is really awesome because of my ridiculous hyper-powered metabolism, because I can eat like this pretty much all the time but I'm not a goony fatass.

Koivunen posted:I helped a patient die with dignity. I think this is a first for this thread. My yesterday was awesome because for the first time in months, I really enjoyed my job. Everyone was in a good mood and I got to do stuff I like doing. Plus, it was a nice Valentines day. I wanted it to be low key so I just did dinner and spent the evening in with netflix. But I feel incredibly lucky - a year ago, I was dealing with depression, was alone and ended up spending the day with a friend I wasn't that close to (at the time, we're best friends now) because I didn't know what else to do. This year, I have over a handful of people I could have celebrated and had an amazing time with. I have a lot more love in my life than 365 days ago it was nice to stop and realize/appreciate it.

I've only been back running since the first of February after injuring my back in October. This morning it was drat cold out so I didn't want to stay out long which meant running faster. Half of my route is uphill and I ran a 9 minute mile. Yes, it isn't fast by any stretch but it's fast for me

Crunched some numbers and figured out that I can afford this little house that my boyfriend and I love and are going to look at on Saturday. I can afford it all by myself should something terrible happen and he moves out as well. Hooray! I'm doubly excited about it now that I know I can afford it even in the worst case scenario.

Today, my mom had a new test done on her kidney and they found something that may be causing a rare, chronic pain disorder that she's had for the last twelve years. A class of mine was cancelled, so I had some time to catch up on my work (which I did, so now that's a weight off my chest). I'm not scheduled to work tonight, so with the extra time I had, I made really awesome risotto. And I'm spending the weekend with my girlfriend in the mountains and having lots of sex.

My only homework for this four day weekend is reading The Epic of Gilgamesh, which I've done multiple times before including two weeks ago for a different class. So in other words, four day weekend with no work to do.

Not today, but yesterday - my nephews and I were messing around and they tossed my brother's P90X DVD in to work out. We're doing the warm-ups and they start going crazy and being goofy, so I do the same and just flail wildly around and shake my butt and make all sorts of goofy faces. Hearing them both drat near lose their voices and run out of breath from laughing was the best thing after a long day at work. Also, during the workout, I started doing the "pec pop" (I've been able to flex the muscles since I started working out years ago) and the oldest nephew screams "YOU CAN DO THE PEC POP OF LOOOOVVVEEEE!!" We played outside later on afterward, and he goes to the neighbor's house to get his friends...who all march over as he proudly yells "MY UNCLE CAN DO THE PEC POP OF LOVE! SHOW 'EM UNCLE PETE!" So I did, and they all simultaneously laughed and had the biggest looks on their faces. I couldn't help but crack up later on, both nephews even told my brother about it and we busted up.

I've decided to spend the weekend in, relaxing and reading. I benched a 15lb pr for a total of 270lbs. I pulled three plates (315lbs) conventionally, three times. My toe being broken to all hell hasn't stopped poo poo besides making me really really want to run since I can't right now. It doesn't even hurt currently. I'm solidly in the quasi-single stage of a relationship with a very very cute girl. In short, life owns bones.

Took the day off because my job doesn't give it to us. I woke up after my shift would have started and I would juuuust be getting home about now. I've been so much more productive and happy than I would have been at work, with so much more to show for it. So, an awesome day off, plus a little kick in the bum about how toxic this job is.

Tomorrow I head on an ocean adventure in Puerto Vallarta, but my netbook had died and I was sad that I wouldn't be able to post about my adventures the day they happened and all of the excitement would have to wait until I got home, after the euphoria wore off. Today my husband picked me up a new netbook.

Today marks the end of a week-long streak of seeing my boyfriend when normally I only see him once a week or so right now. It's been really pleasant and calming. Also he exercised his unique ability to give me an orgasm pretty much wherever and whenever he wants provided that I don't object, which is just more proof that I won the sex lottery.
