I don't know why the thought of the "Hang in there, baby!" cat poster made me smile, but it did. I think a lot of it had to do with the fact that Jake was the one that mentioned it.
So, that's what I am doing. Hanging in there, but barely (heeeeeyyyyy, just like the cat poster!). I still haven't heard back from the last interview (which I am just taking as bad news, with just a sliver of hope which is making me crazy). Lately I have been having random outbursts of tears, panic, laughter and then eating all in a matter of one hour. Today I had 5 pieces of bread and half a pint of Cherry Garcia. I mean, seriously. I realize that I am a walking hormone (see bulging stomach and crazy pigmented facial skin), but I feel as if these roller-coaster-of-emotion outbursts can't be good for me or baby inside of my belly.
I even tried diverting my attention with a trip to Starbucks to just get out of the house and to feel normal and smart and very hip. It didn't really work. I felt weird and isolated. I am not a good "party of one" kind of person, plus I feel like a phony because I am only drinking decaf.
I figure that after tomorrow I will have some sort of answer, because I am the type of person that needs closure. Then, I will be able to move on with my life. Or, I will become slightly stalkerish with them, and email them every five minutes to ask if they have heard anything. I don’t think that will reflect positively on me.
I need to start feeling better or at least going on some adventures or SOMETHING, because these blogs really suck. My overuse of parentheses does not make up for my lack of creativity (although I am becoming strangely addictive to them). For that, I am sorry blog readers. All you guys want is something to pass the time at work, and maybe to have a chuckle or two. These are positively chuckle-less, however you might find some usefulness in them just for the fact that it makes you feel better about your own life. (Watching Dr. Phil also works for that). (Sorry, last one).

I know all about crazy pigmented skin (aka "melasma, "the mask of pregnancy"). Just ask Ericka. I love Cherry Garcia and parenthesis too. (I'm not preggers, am I??)
First of all its about time you started eating .....My little grandson desrves Cherry Garcia. Just wait till he's born, I will let him eat whatever he wants. Now about the job thing, let it go. I can't have my grandchild being colicky or anything just because you are worried about a job. You need to chill out. If it's gonna happen , it will happen. Maybe you are meant to be home with pinenut.At least for now.
i have to agree with grandmama - pregnant women should eat cherry garcia, and the job thing will work out sooner or later - i feel good vibes about it!! and (going along with keenan) at least you can blame your pigmented skin on pregnancy - we have both experienced melasma (aka - the mask of pregnancy) just from exposure to sunlight :) just call me powder. i think maybe we should start a weekly walking club or something - you don't need to be hanging out with these starbucks freaks to feel normal :)
You guys are so nice. Thank you for making me feel better.Hopefully the mask will clear up and I will win the lottery :) Or, I can just DEAL with it and it some more ice cream.
I love your friends.
keenan continues to impress me with her bloggin' skillz. (click her name)
