feast or famine.

if you think things are awesome, it's common to think
that every little thing is awesome.
if you think things suck,
pretty much everything sucks.

so i'm gonna try something.
first of all, i'll be honest...
a few things suck right now.
but not everything.
so before i ruin everything with a negative attitude
i've decided that i'm going to be super grateful for the
awesome things:

my boyfriend is amazing.
i think he might be tired of me telling him that.
but he is.
he is encouraging, patient, smart, caring,
helpful, a very talented musician, handsome,
makes an awesome sandwich,
and he has a great heart.
he makes me happy.

my mom is awesome.
she's really funny, she can cook like nobody's business,
she's loving, she works her butt off,
and she taught me everything i know.
i love my mom.

my friends are the best.
i enjoy my daily soda walks and
watching hours and hours of vampire-related tv.

i guess this was just a pep talk to myself.

i quit making plans.

:i shouldn't be an optimist:
but somehow, i just keep thinking
everything will work out perfectly.
i make plans...
get big ideas...
go on adventures...
and things always end differently
than i imagined.

:ok, that's not fair:
some things do end up pretty rad.
there are good things.
i can make a list right now.

:but as for today:
today i feel that making plans sucks.
so i quit.

when will minimum wage be $15?

:first things first:
happy birthday mom!

:down to business:
i've reached the conclusion
that my "big girl" marketing job
sucks.

walking 7 hours a day in the hot sun
knocking on the doors of rude people
(who obviously don't need a windshield)
and making zero monies
seriously sucks.

in my current situation
one would think i don't have the option
to be picky.

but my sanity was on the line.
working your butt off
and literally making no money doing it
will mess with your head.

so the search continues.
yesterday i applied at mellow mushroom.
today i apply at starbucks
and everywhere else in 5 pts.
