So, the bad news is that I had my car inspected today and it’s going to cost me $900. The good news is I’m still able to pay for it despite the fact that I’m no longer collecting unemployment nor am I employed by a company that provides me with awesome stuff like a 401k and health insurance.

I’m officially working for myself, which still baffles me because I’m not entrepreneurial and I never wanted to do this. But there it is. Let’s hope it works out?

Last week I was introduced to a potential client after an event and, having no business cards yet because I’m still in denial about this whole independent contractor thing, I gave him my info on a hot pink Post-it Note. At this point I decided it was time to stop being an asshole and asked my awesome friend Nick to design my business cards, which he did in like, five minutes, because he’s a genius, and now they are on the way to my house.

ALSO - and this is big - I went to the grocery store Monday and bought a ton of vegetables, came home, washed and chopped them up, and put them into Tupperware containers. AND I cooked chicken and didn’t burn it, cut it up and put it into a container, too. So, now my fridge looks like an adult is eating out of it, which might not sound like a big deal, but the only thing that’s been in that fridge the past 9 months is beer and condiments.

The trip to buy adult food came after I realized it’s been months since I was able to get into my favorite (read: smallest) pair of jeans and decided I am no longer allowed to be in denial about the 20 lbs I’ve gained since my hip surgery two years ago. I’ve been avoiding it and putting it off, like I do, but, seriously, no more. I want to wear those jeans. THEY ARE TJMAXX JEANS. I LOVE THEM.

Anyway. There’s a hundred other character flaws I need to address, but that’s a start. It’s easy for some people to be “grown up,” but I perpetually struggle with it. Some part of me is still 16 and just wants to buy some mushrooms for a Tom Petty concert and part of me realizes that I can’t because I have to go to work in the morning. Also, mushrooms taste like dirty balls.

i can’t remember who gave him this hat, but i’d like to thank them again.
we are hiring a person to help during the day for the weeks i get treatment until work dies down and r can be home a lot more. going through this process is depressing and makes me hate everyone so much. so basically right on par with my usual chemo self.

You amaze me.
Also, your BABY IS SO CUTE AND I LOVE THIS PICTURE SO MUCH.

Hi. Have I mentioned the dog I rescued has separation anxiety and that he howls and barks for hours on end when I’m not home, pissing off my unemployed neighbor who calls my landlady and complains? I’ve read that it’s common for dogs to develop separation anxiety when they are given up to a new home and that it’s one of the hardest problems to correct because it’s an issue with the dog’s confidence. I don’t know. But so far, I’ve tried those sonic bark things, closing the blinds and turning on music or the TV, a bark collar and now I drive him to my mom’s EVERY morning when I have to go to the office, which, at this point, is almost full time. This is my next attempt at getting the dog to not bark long enough that I can leave the house to run an errand. The thundershirt and some “barking set ups.” Right now, I have to find someone to watch him if I have to leave. I literally rearrange every aspect of my schedule for this dog. Hopefully, I’ll be able to get him into doggy daycare soon, which will be great - but super expensive. Supposedly they have a resident dog whisperer there who’s supposed to be really good. Maybe he can give me some tips. Or maybe he wants a weiner dog with emotional problems, I don’t know. I can’t give him up. Which is weird because I think about driving him out to the middle of the woods and leaving him there at least twice a day when he rolls in random animal shit outside.
