So I got really pissed off yesterday and quit my job without giving any notice. In hindsight I probably should have waited until I had found something else but it still feels great. I'm sure panic will set in eventually but right now all I feel is relief. I am finally out of that toxic environment.

I have to work a half day Christmas Eve and they are automatically denying any time off requests for that day. Lame. Might as well just have normal hours then. Coming in for half a day sucks.

I have it figured out on paper, but that doesn't always pan out. lol
Yeah, sleep is crazy like that, but I guess it's the circadian rhythm is what they call it, and ours is based around being awake during the day, and doing things at that time, so when you start to mess with it, you feel it...hard!

It certainly does. Fond memories.
Your hopes have been fulfilled. I believe I am.
If the phrase "I am the nicest person I know" means something to you, then I definitely am.
That place sucks. You should quit.
How are you? I've missed you quite a bit. Tell everyone (well, everyone I like, you know who they are) I said "Hi".

Just when I had never felt more unappreciated at work they go and name me the Employee of the Month for November. I swear I will never understand the way this company operates.

Well, good luck on the not screwing around and finding a new one. 
horror_head:
Well, it's great that you feel that way.
Why would you want to leave the company that loves you so?! Just jokin'. Hopefully they'll be more appreciative of what you offer them, rather than just throwing you a bone every now and then. Or maybe they've changed their tune, and this is the start of great things to come?

Hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving.

I worked on the day, but I took today off, so dad and I went hunting and just a bit ago mom, dad and I had a good dinner of the usual fare. I am a happy boy.

Glad to hear it. I hope it lasts too.
It hailed hear this morning. Scared the hell out of me. I had no idea what all that banging was and I thought one of the windows was going to break.
Thanks to those of you who made book suggestions. I'm heading to Half Price books today and have quite a shopping list now.

Going to your doctor will be the first step. Write down all your symptoms and give that to your doctor, they will be able to get a pretty good idea of what's going on then refer you to someone who can help

You sound like me, I can give advice but I'm not very good at taking it. Something that my psych always says to me is what would you tell someone else in a similar situation
It prob sounds silly but the best thing to do is just make the appointment. The more you think about doing it or plan a time to do it, the less likely you are to do it. The more you over think it the harder it is (if that makes seance).

I need something good to read and my last few picks have sucked. Any suggestions?
I've been sleeping in one of Fitz's shirts. It just makes me miss him more but it makes me feel comforted at the same time.

thanks!

Yeah, DBT seems to be really helping me. It's hard work but worth it in my opinion
Are you borderline if you don't mind me asking?

Sometimes I read other people's blogs and I get jealous of their ability to say what they want to say. Whether it be just talking about their day, or deep profound thoughts or even stream of consciousness rambling. I am always afraid of sounding stupid or shallow or somehow looking bad. So I just don't say much at all. I wish I could bring myself...

Hope it gets easier for you 
Sick again. I'm starting to think I have allergies. Also being sick all the time and sitting on my ass all day at work is making me fat. I've gained 8 pounds in the last year. Probably doesn't sound like a lot but when you are as short as I am it definitely shows. Boo.
shelbs22:
Yeah the change in weather and all the crap in the air is really hard...I fell sick too.
So not having a computer really sucked. What did I miss?

Well thank you very much, I greatly appreciate that. 
strega:
Definitely one of my favorites.
Had dinner with my parents tonight. Beef Laab, pho & eggrolls. All homemade by mom and for desert she made my favorite, strawberry cream puffs. Those have a special meaning for me as when I was in my teens I loved the band Shonen Knife and after hearing this song:
I really wanted to try them but couldn't find them anywhere. Anyway, my mom, found...

That sounds delicious. I love Pho. 
I'm good.
Sometimes I can't believe I am me either.
