i am feeling really bad and I don’t know why. Yesterday was like a terrible PMS i-hate-the-world-keep the-weapons-locked-up kind of day, and I haven’t had one of those in a long, long time. It was like I was watching these horrible emotions just flow through me and it was all I could do to let it just happen and remind myself it was going to end soon, AND not use my outside voice too much. I tried coffee, I tried shopping, I tried bubble bath, wine….nothing helped so I went to bed early and hid under the pillows. I feel a little better today, mostly annoyed that I was supposed to be off all day but because of my own poor time management have to go into work for a few hours this evening. I am even annoyed at the weather (actually that last one is a normal canadian thing…weak grin)
Alright, I know the high carb last few days probably threw everything out of whack - so I had a fruit & protein smoothie instead of cereal (good). Since I am off this morning I can go for a hike (good). Cleaning lady comes today (good). I have deleted EXLB’s recent and much-too-late ‘goodbye and sorry’ email. (good)Really, girls, he slammed that door in JUNE! and he contacts me NOW??? dagnabit.
Ok, tomorrow I go on my mini-vacation road trip and I am going to have a rockin time. I am not bringing my laptop or my blackberry, this is going to be personal time and I am going to enjoy every moment. I am staying two nights in a luxury hotel and I am going to find very nice restaurants and buy one pair of beautiful shoes. So there.
And if there is a scale in the hotel room I am going to make it disappear!

Your trip sounds like a trip to heaven and back. So jealous! Enjoy every moment.

Hormones are awful, good thing you were smart enough to hide all the weapons.
Have a blast on your vacay, enjoy the luxury! Make us all jealous when you get back about how fantastic it was.

What a great writer you are! So funny and cohesive, do you write for a living? Thanks for your comment on my blog. I haven’t been keeping up with it lately but you inspire me. I too am taking a little trip this weekend so we can trade stories when we come back!

Whenever I have those days I take some hydroxycut. The weightloss stuff?? You can get it at the grocery store or drug store. I have never lost weight with it, but there must be some type of upper in it. Get some and leave it in the house for those days. Actually that reminds me that mine is expiring (so you can see how long I have had it!)so I should get some more!
If not that, try taking 5HTP each day. It increases seratonin.
Just some suggestions…no need to point the rifle at me!!
Cheers

You rock, TJNorth. PMS et al, you still have a great attitude. May your time away be lovely and hope you find the most divine pair of shoes. New, beautiful shoes, better than therapy, aye?
And that person (wanted to write schmuck) who sent you the email? I am sending strong sisterhood scorn over the air for him.
