So I have an interview today ...nothing exciting, just a receptionist/customer service job at a furniture store. I haven't really put much thought into it until today. Things have been crazy, which I thought was good cuz it meant I wouldn't stress about it. But the whole morning I have spent putting myself down for absolutely NO reason whatsoever!! Why do I do this to myself? There is nothing to imply that I won't get this job, and yet I sit here as I do my hair and makeup and make up excuses for why I won't get it! Why do I do this to myself?!?! I only end up setting myself up by doing this!! I know I am quite capable of getting this job, I HAVE the experience, and yet I still put myself down! Am I just setting myself up for failure in the end?
My god, I'm my own worst enemy!!!
I'm just a girl, like any other girl, struggling with my weight, my body, my self-esteem. Except that I'm trying to be different ....

Rainy day Fever ...
Rainy days suck in an apartment! It's raining hardcore here today and I love the rain, but living in an apartment totally puts a damper on the day! (no pun intended!) Sitting on the balcony is fine ... except that I look right into the building across the parking lot. And there's only SO much fat person I can watch in one day. Lying in bed reading worked out for all of 10mins. Sometimes I love this place and sometimes I hate it! I want to curl up beside a window and watch the rain, and read, and feel the breeze and enjoy the day.
I'm going shopping.
I'm going shopping.
