Bought new earrings at lunch, so as to distract from my burgeoning starvation. Eating healthier & less food in general is proving to be much harder than I thought…

insta- who is no longer insta-

I’m also cranky because the time I get to spend with him is limited these days. Feel free to impart your knowledge about how stressful, involved and time-consuming it is to buy your first house and gut renovate it while working full time.  I’d appreciate the perspective. I love (*gasp) him for doing it, it’s a great “starter home” and he’s working so hard to get it move-in ready, then he just has to ya know, move in.

I wish we could hang out more, and plan more stupid dates.  I particularly miss the little affections, like a kiss in the crook of my neck, followed by a deep inhale and exhale, as if the scent of me eases his mind. well back at ya, fella. 

aaaand that’s a lot of mushiness from me today, friends.  you are now free to vomit quietly.

1) my boss expects more from me.  I’m not sure why and I can likely blame myself, but he has admitted that he expects me to come in at 9am since I live close to the office, while the other people that commute come in literally at 9:50am.  i fight hard not to lash out at them when they make comments when I’m leaving at 530pm.

2) i’m feeling very bloated lately (aka in 2012) and nothing is helping!  I’m wearing a dress that used to be my “loose summer dress”, now when I pulled it over my head this morning, it was a struggle to get it over my boobs and hips - the whole time during which i was screaming “really?  really!” and sweating.

3) i’m jealous of everyone when i read blogs.  maybe i’m just in a mood and i’m feeling ungrateful today but i sorta hate the stasis i’m in with my career and life, en general. i’m making moves to change it, i just feel impatient and a little bit pathetic.  nothing moves fast enough, but surely i’d complain/be stressed out if it were moving faster.

4) humidity does not help with the crankiness/hair frizz

do you hate me yet?

So savory and good!

NYPD Says Etan Patz Killer Has Been Found [Updated]

I have a few things to say about this:

1) Thank the lord they found the bastard that confessed to killing poor Etan.  Peace of mind for his family even if it’s 30 years late.

2) Parents, don’t take professional looking portraits of your young son shirtless.  Maybe I’m being a prude but really.  Why?  

3) Dogs are the best.  You never hear of a cat sniffing out a crime scene to help solve a case.  Just sayin’.
