Ang’s Rants and Raves

For the first time in my life I have overdrafted my account.  I’m not sure what the fee will be as I have never done it before, but it hasn’t posted to my account. 

As it stands, I have 7 bills that I have to pay with my next check leaving me with barely anything for the next two weeks.  Looks like $1.00 soup cans are in my future.  At least I still have a paycheck, as Elaine has no more. I can’t imagine what I’d do then.  The realization that you really can travel is hitting me, that thats just not true.  I should have never went to California.  For how much the expense has cost me with two plane tickets and spending for the weekend, I have now  hit the ‘in debt’ status again.  Bills are coming out of my ears to the point, I feel a panic attack coming on.

Now I’m going to have to cut corners as I can this week.  No more Applebee’s salad’s with sarah/laura, just go home and eat cheap.  This weekend we’ve cut down to only driving to ohio, staying at lori’s, and just walking around downtown for the afternoon.  Sarah and I have already locked into a room on the following saturday night that I just can’t get out of.  I’ve now cancelled my Pittsburg trip, Pearl Jam (which my stomach is in knots about), and Tom Petty tickets. Hopefully I can pick up some shifts at Sullivan’s, maybe even on Mother’s Day if its not too late.

Thanks for reading this and letting me vent.  The positive thing is that I have a job to help decrease this mess i put myself in, as two people I know don’t have one (or will not soon).

I have to work 7:30-4 today since I’m leaving right after work for Kzoo.  I just realized I’m in a skirt, so I grabbed a quick outfit to change into since I have a chiro appointment at 5:45.  Thank goodness. Dr. Smith gives the best neck massages ever and I’m going to make sure he gives me one tonight.  Than its off to Mindy to get my desperately needed hair-trim.  The ends are starting to look nasty.  Than meeting Luacia at Saladay’s for a quick dinner before I head back.  I have a feeling its going to be a long day and I’ll be exhausted by the time I get home.

Amy got into our cardio class tomorrow night so that should be exciting! I’ve become addicted to Applebee’s new Pecan Chicken Salad.  I think about it almost every day since last week!  I went to Saginaw to get one, but they didn’t sell them there.  The waitress tried to tell me the Novi Applebee’s is different, but I am doubtful. They are a chain!  Anyway, so I must get them in novi after our thursday work out.  I never realized I’d start craving maderin oranges, blue cheese, and dried cranberries in my salad with dark greens and a great vinegrette.  mmmmmm. heavenly. 

Laura orders a shrimp and spinach salad that looks amazing, but w/o the shrimp of course:).  all this talk about food at 8:05a.m. You know I’m on a diet!!

Steve and I thought it was going to rain yesterday so we just walked around his neighborhood last night.  I saw a cute dog and realized it was one of my coworkers dog’s and we chatted a bit. It’s nice to run into ppl i know here in AA since I know very little and 90% of coworkers commute into AA from all over the area.  Than we got back and watched the rest of Season 2’s Sex and the City.  How lucky am I that my boyfriend WANTS to watch them!! I’ve already watched them though twice, and going on my third. I can’t wait for Season 3, its my favourite!

Now its back to reality of a long day and not being able to get out at lunch.  My weather bug says its supposed to be 76 today, so we’ll see how that turns out!
