This past week or so has been really hard, and today feels like the culmination, with the period and the hormones that go along with it. My skin looks tired, broken out thanks to period, the spot where the mole was removed is at this awkward spot where the surrounding skin is kind of pale and the leftover pigmentation is a weird brown color. Work sucks. My mother and living with her and my dad are driving me batty. No contact other than FB from idiot. Something has to give, but I can't seem to find a solution. I feel like I'm running out of rope.
It occurs to me that if $100,000 fell out of the sky, my life would be drastically different.

OMG! Corazon Salvaje! I lived for that novela! Did you see the piece of **** remake that came out recently? I think I saw half a scene before I changed the channel in horror.

This is one of my favorite parts. See, when there are high rates of single women, it’s because ohmyGodsomethingiswrongwiththoseladies! seehowunhappytheymustbe! But for dudes, it’s a choice.

Yep, men are choosing not to get married, but women are in crisis because they can't find a man to marry them.

QFT. And what really pisses me off about the bolded is that the reason husbands and fathers have been "devalued" (what a crock of ****) is because women had to figure out how to take care of themselves and raise their children on their own because of useless muthuf'ers. But now men feel bad that they're not "needed" and that's why they don't marry? **** that.

Got a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks over the weekend.

It was good.

It was a medium.

It was $4.55.

The entire time I drank it I keep holding the cup up saying "I can't believe THIS was four fifty-five...".

Glad I had a gift card.

One day we will move to Australia, be roommates and kick curly period week in the gonads!

((((Saria))))

It gets better. It really does, all of it.

It really is something how nothing is ever white men's fault. Nope, it's the women's fault. Don't wanna get raped? Don't dress like a slut. Deadbeat father to your child? It's because you women wanted to be self-sufficient.
Black people want equal treatment? Stop trying to make everything about race!
Minorities in poverty? They just don't work hard enough because they're hung up on being victims!

Yeah, did not watch. I mean, Aracely Arambula not just as the lead, but doing a double role? Oh yeah, I'm sure she's totally going to measure up to Ana Cochero and Edith Gonzalez!

Saria · 11-07-2011, 11:08 AM

Aww, that made me smile. Thanks, kayb!

Springy, a ridiculous amount of lattes could be made for that amount! Fairly easy, too!

spring1onu · 11-07-2011, 11:20 AM

I don't even want to know how much the large is...mercy.

I tried making a PSL at home and it was nasty, but I'm not well versed in coffee drinks like that. I'd surely make one more often if it was as good as the Starbucks I had on Saturday.

I rarely go to Starbucks so the sticker shock was way worse than I expected.

I usually save getting a coffee drink when we're out for an iced caramel latte from McDonalds. If I'm going to do bad-for-me-and-evil I like it to be cheap and good.

I do want to try the SB eggnog latte, but at least I'll be prepared that I need to save up or take out a loan first.

scrills · 11-07-2011, 11:47 AM

I went to the movies Saturday night because the only other day I could go I had a late meeting. my meeting just got cancelled. That means I spent $20 when I could have spent $8. I'm not a happy camper

mmm, Starbucks. I wonder when Ninja is going to meet me there. hint. hint.

midgi · 11-07-2011, 11:48 AM

Why did out take me 45 effing minutes to get some flowers delivered to my mom for her birthday? Geez...

And I wish this guy sittng next to me would STOP taking. His breath reeks and no matter how far I scoot over, or whether I turn my back, the smell is drifting... Ugh!

I just bought a sympathy card for the loss of a baby. Thursday, I am going to a funeral for that baby.

Life really and truly sucks sometimes.

RIP Baby Joshua. You were loved.

spring1onu · 11-07-2011, 11:54 AM

So sorry {{{{Gekko}}}}.

Yup, I came to the same conclusion and posted about it too a couple pages back. Plus, the OPs both had very few posts. I don't understand why people here keep falling for Lemon.Tulips' (aka Needs.Hair.Repair) old tricks.

Oh shoot, I just realized I've fallen for it my own self. I should go back and delete that post...

The New Black · 11-07-2011, 12:25 PM

Girl, you are WEIRD!!

CanItBeChristine · 11-07-2011, 12:25 PM

There is no point in wearing eye makeup when you can't go half-a-day without crying

I just want to feel like myself again. I don't remember what that feels like.

Rubber Biscuit · 11-07-2011, 12:44 PM

{{{HUGS}}} to Saria & CIBC

cympreni · 11-07-2011, 12:44 PM

I really wish I could be more brave when it comes to fashion.

The New Black · 11-07-2011, 12:48 PM

Oh CIBC are you able to talk to a professional? I'm worried about you...

I love TimTams. I really must get my brother to send me some because I cannot find them here. Milo too.

I take that back I have just found an online store that sells them although they are £3.80 a pack

They're as splendid as everyone said. I stood outside Target eating one, thinking "Oh My God!" after I bought a package of the infernal things today.

I thought of asking a stranger, "Do you know how good these are?" but then:

a)I'd have had to share; and

b) my mouth was full.

I totally laughed at this. I can so relate!

_______

Saria, pfft, I am barely BARELY ahead of you, and I don't really expect it to last. You save up kickbutt words for the end every.single.time!

_______

Off to find the troll to see if she was amusing (no I will not feed it).

gekko422 · 11-07-2011, 12:50 PM

Thanks, Spring. I just don't think parents should have to lose a child, I can't imagine a harder loss.

I have been wearing teal & purple/fuscia together lately (today I have on a teal v-neck blouse with a fuscia cami under it, so you just see a bit at the V). I have yet to decide if it is cute, or if I look like a lunatic.
