Unemployment Day 32

After all the whining I did the other day it’s amazing that managed to have a good day today, but I guess that’s just the way it goes.

My nightmares are still persistent and my tummy aches are showing no sign of stopping {I’m nursing one right now} but I put that all behind me for a bike ride to Chinatown for lunch with my old coworkers followed by coffee in Rittenhouse with Anna of Shmitten Kitten fame and then a jaunt through town with my BFFF Wayne which ended with snacks and a delicious beer at the Cantina. I was home by 8 {and the sun was still up!}, which I think is not too shabby.

My night at home has mostly consisted of watching last night’s episodes of The Office and 30 Rock, listening to the Reality Bites soundtrack, watching Didz do cute stuff {check out the video down below}, and writing my newest piece for Shmitten Kitten. Enjoy that.

I’m going to spend the rest of my night watching A Walk to Remember {which I bought yesterday because my sister and I scoured the Lehigh Valley for it a couple weekends ago to no avail . . . next time I see her we’ve got a date with Mandy Moore and six pack of Yoo-Hoo} and reading The Worry Cure. It’s come recommended by a friend who also suffers from some serious anxiety, so I’m hoping it’ll help me out . . . I’ll keep ya’ll posted.

I haven’t made any progress on the job front, but I’m going to let myself off the hook for now. Tomorrow I’ve got plans to get some breakfast with Waynerdoo, coffee at some point with another friend, and maybe a little lesson in hanging sheetrock with our old pal Beard #1. I also intend on wearing a dress, riding my bike, eating ice cream, and spending as much time as possible outside. I’ve got to stop wallowing.

Oh, and just to prove that I can still smile {and do, a lot} check out the photo below. And Jamie, if you’re reading, that scarf you brought me from South Africa is FINALLY seeing some action. I love it!
