The egoist in me finally decided that it could not survive without a blog, so here I go . . .

I need a cathartic outlet to rant and rave. While I am generally a sane, polite, nice, and put-together woman, I sometimes get way too in touch with my inner crazy. For a while I had the bad habit of blogging on different websites about every restaurant I went to. Unfortunatly, I had to stop this, mainly because I can no longer really afford to eat out as I am now a heavily indebted law student. Nevertheless, the egoist in me loves to here my own voice, even if it is not aloud. Thus, here I go . . .

Recent Moments to lament:

1) Going to law school when I had a steady job (now broke & indebt with no job prospects. Love it!)

2) Leaving California for the icy Midwest (this is mitigated by the fact that I met my fiance here)

3) Deciding that I could wear high heels today even though it was icy (I have a nice bruise to show for this one)

4) Not taking full advantage of the after New Years Sales (this is mitigated by the fact that I could not honestly afford to)

5) Gaining about 5 lbs in winter weight when I am suppose to be trimming down so I can go wedding dress shopping

6) Spending an insane amount of money of books I could have gotten at the public library

7) Not having a job lined up yet for this summer even though I got good grades last year and was a teacher's assistant last semester


Recent Moments to celebrate

1) Getting engaged to a wonderful man who does not mind my eccentricities

2) Deciding where and when I am going to have my wedding

3) Going for the salad this evening instead of the Jambalaya (this was a huge struggle)

4) Buying and fixing up a loft with my Fiance (okay... so, he bought the loft and did most of the fixing, while I picked out colors and furniture)

5) Having my brother talk to me over lunch for the first time in months

6) Still fitting into a small

Bottom Line

While I am cold in the Midwest, broke, unemployed, and bruised, I am doing pretty well. I just have to keep reminding myself of that fact because this time of year it is always hard to see the sunlight in dark situations.
