Trevor is playing "I and love and you" on his guitar in the living room while I cook dinner.

Thanksgiving was epic.

8:54 am - Romanticism
We drove to Asheville, NC last night to see Regina Spektor.
She's super duper talented.
The sound system was really high quality.
There were so many indie kids.
Which was refreshing since we have none of that here.

Yesterday at work a man asked me if he could see my "boss, a male figure".
I wish I had flipped out on him more.

It's raining, and I just had a small bloody nose.
Time to build houses...

I dread going to the laundromat, but it's definitely getting easier.
I think I've narrowed down the times when it's least sketchy.


Did I tell you I gave that sketchy neighbor a ride to walgreens?


He begged.

8:55 pm - AMERICA
I hate the guilt that non-profits lay on their donors with "looking to the lord" who tells us to "be merciful", etc.





Why can't people just give money/volunteer just to be a better person!?!?!?!

7:15 pm - Your're the good things.
Today was good because:
  • I should have been in a bad car wreck with Sara because we hydroplaned the truck about a quarter mile back and forth across the highway in the pouring rain but we miraculously didn't crash or get hit.
  • Sara and I had starbucks and an oreo frosty from Wendy's (no I don't wonder why I weigh 17 pounds more)
  • I finally got my food stamp card in the mail!
  • I'm going to bake a blueberry boy bait cake (to use as bait for my boy, obvi)
  • I got a lot of holiday time off from work so I'll be in New York for longer. I want to visit Troy, so let me know when you'll be there!

2:55 pm - Hay girl I like your pearls.
I'm so glad Seattle didn't work out.
I wouldn't be here right now if it had.
And I'm pretty satisfied with sunny skies.






Only in South Carolina do you talk about BBQ at the gynocologist.

I'm being extremely pessimistic about a lot right now.
About things I should be happy about.

I'm imagining myself talking to Allison and her telling me to snap out of it in a "I'm fussin' at you" tone.
Because that's what I need. And she's up there, and I'm down here.

I need a smile on my face, because I'm taking a lot for granted right now. I'm just not feeling it though.


It's 6:30, Saturday morning, I'm leaving for work.

11:35 am - Prayer card, red carded
They honored me by asking me to pray at work the other day.

It caught me off guard.
Immediately,
My instinct was to say no.
And I did.
Intensely.

I was very quick to react.
It was so rude on my part.
My brain just immediately reacted with this NO WAYYY.

I felt badly afterwards.

If I had it to do over I would have "said thanks".

6:06 am - Flooded head
A portion of my house flooded very badly from my (new) washing machine.

Everyone I talk to keeps telling me I have to rip the carpet up to prevent black mold.
Or else my house will be unlivable.

I have a fan blowing down on a section that I move around.
I don't know what to dooooooooo
It's stressing me out and I'm worrying.

I have two really good girlfriends here now and it's really cool.

We go out and drink wine over dinner.
Spending time with them is really important to me.
Going shopping, etc.


Girls here are always dressed fancy.
I get to wear my dresses everywhere.
I love it.

7:14 am - Diet and Exercise
My diet changed a lot when I moved down here.
To fast food on the go lunches at work, lots of meat, and lots of BBQ.
Mostly a lot more food in general.

Definitely gained some weight around my hips.
Pants don't fit.
(Now that it's getting chillier, I NEED MY PANTS!)

So I joined the Y. (haven't been yet though, waiting for my low-income paperwork to finish up)
I changed my diet so I mostly eat veggies and fruits at home.
Eating lots of meat at more than one meal was slowing me down. 
My body wasn't digesting it fast enough leaving me feeling bloated all the time.


It's been about a week.
I feel much better already.
Still hard to avoid bad foods at work but I bring an apple.

Hopefully I'll fit in my pants soon.

10:54 pm - when life gives you lemons, take the wine stain out
I got the wine stain out with lemon juice. (!! pretty amazing)

I bought a fan to dry my carpet, it's going to take years...
Landscaped all day. Digging, raking, mud.


I'm so tired I am speechless.
Pictures soon, I swear.
