Breathe, Cally...breathe....

  • Oh lord. Oh lord. Oh lord.

    I just got a call; I have a job interview tomorrow, and I haven't worked for over six years. I am scared to death.

    I want to b/p. Help!!!!
  • That's great! Congrats!!!

    I know that interviewing is hard and scary, but you can do it.

    My Grandma had never worked outside the home a day in her life, and had to go get a job after my Pawpaw died at age 52. She ended up with a great job and a new best friend out of the deal.

    Good luck and let us know how it goes!!!

  • I *almost* asked, "why do you want to b/p if this is happy news?" And then I remembered, oh yeah, any reason will do. But it's your nerves, right? I can only tell you, DON'T b/p, because it may be your last meal, and then you won't even have a chance for the job. I always have to tell myself, "you better well enjoy this binge, because if you purge it, if could be your LAST."
  • Exactly, it's nerves.

    Thank you; I will remember that mantra about it possibly being my last meal. It's true, and it's NOT worth that risk.

    I feel better now; the worst of it's passing. I had a big glass of water and two squares of super-dark chocolate; the intensity of the flavor seemed to curb the binge instinct.

    Thank you, ladies. *hugs*
  • Cally, I'll be keeping you in my thoughts tomorrow. Big hugs, and much luck to you!
  • I MADE IT!!! Aside from the two extra squares of dark chocolate, I ate nothing that was not in my plan. I'm on track and have no urge to purge!

    Thank you so much, ladies. I don't know what on earth I would do without this place!

    Thank you so much, Ellis. I'm still nervous, but I really want this job. It's in a library, and I always wanted to work there, ever since I was a little girl! (I'm such a nerd, haha.)

    Libraries are awesome places to work. I started at this library when I was 20. Nine years later and I still can't think of any other place I'd want to work.
