Feel Better

Nothing makes me feel better than spending money. Today I spent a ton of money and didn't have to use any actual cash.

First I went to Pier 1 and got some Christmas decor for my party that I am going to have next month. Luckily, I still had leftover giftcards from my birthday so that's what I used for my purchases.

When I got home, I was still feeling pretty worthless, so I ordered a Marc Jacobs purse. On my Neiman's card. Granted, it might not have been the smartest thing to do considering I am beyond broke, but I tell you -- clicking on "Submit Order" did wonders for my mood. I just hope it comes in time for the Mavs game on Saturday.

Then I went to the movies to see Borat. It was my favorite kind of movie: hilarious, offensive, and short. And I paid for it with a giftcard I got from a coworker. Even better!

Another thing that helped my mood. I was reminded today that I don't have to see my boss again till the Monday after Thanksgiving. Fabulous!

Weird Week

Last week was a pretty strange week. In some ways good, some ways just weird, not necessarily bad.

The good: The election!!! We still have that idiot Rick Perry as governor, however, Dallas County went from completely Republican to Democrat! The house and senate are controlled by the Dems again, finally! Haters want to say "Oh what's really going to change, blah blah blah?" You know what? Maybe not much will change, but the fact that the American people have spoken is so cool to me. And at least the Dems are saying they want to make changes, and they are changes *I* care about. I don't care about big business, I don't care if gay people get married or if women have abortions -- I think they should be able to actually. I think the minimum wage should be raised. You get my drift. When all was said and done, I was pretty damn happy.

The weird: Work Guy aka BBQ. He came over on Wednesday. It was weird, and now I am worried things are weird between us. I know I am using the word weird a lot, but I don't want to relive the bizarreness of it all by typing it all out. Plus I will start to obsess about it again and I am just not up for that right now.

Today I am feeling kind of down. I want to go shopping (I still have some giftcards leftover from my birthday) but I just can't bring myself to get up off the couch. Don't tell anyone, but I haven't even changed out of my PJs today. Maybe tomorrow I will feel up for going out.
