4. Quote your mom.
"What? Are you pregnant!?"
5. Quote yourself.
"I'm just saying..."
I'm quite emotional right now, but I was doing pretty good until I decided to ask Rob to have a baby with me. He has reason in telling me no, when we can barely afford to feed ourselves, we probably shouldn't bring another life into this world. But for some reason, I got really sad and just started bawling once I got into the bathroom. I'm not mad with him, I'm just in a really shitty mood now.
Goddamn PMS and Bipolar disorder, the worst combination to have, seriously.
In other things, Rob's dad hasn't given up on bringing Rob to FL and myself if NEED be. I don't know what to think about that. Everything's so in the air right now, my Visa is getting processed, I can't work obviously, and Rob's broken arm and our poorness has really taken an emotional toll on me. I don't know what to do and I can barely fucking take it.
I thought I was doing pretty good, but now I'm not so sure.

Since I've become the lone wolf again, and I don't have to share, I am convinced that I am addicted. I haven't been to sleep in a few days, and aside from 1/2 a bowl of cereal, I haven't kept anything in my stomach. At the same time, it's the only way that I know how to deal with my anger/temper issues, my sadness, and my horrible personality.
I don't know what happened to Old Cio, but I want her back and I want this bitch gone.
* getting stoned
* talking to that person that you've had a crush on for more than 8 years and flirting needlessly
* wearing high heels and fish net stockings just to tease the boy
* riding on a motorcycle without safety gear
* making the cats get high on catnip and fight each other viciously
* blowing pot smoke in your dog's face
* eating cheesecake all by yourself

it's only been a week, a little less than a week, actually... and I'm already noticing that my whole schedule and everything is all fucked up.
i am awake, it's 5 am. my husband is dead asleep, he works early. and i should be sleeping and waking up at the same time as him. today... well, yesterday, i cleaned. and i'm afraid that watching dr. phil and oprah has turned into a daily habit.
remind me to buy sleeping pills this weekend. i need to keep my schedule as close to normal as possible. i can't sleep.
i have watched two hbo documentaries tonight. one about four people who were recovering from brain injuries and their recovery after waking from a coma. it was really fucking sad. i told rob that i never ever want to be in that position and to put me straight out of my misery. and the other one i watched was about a 65 year old couple who had been deaf their whole lives and then decided to get a cochlear implant to hear. and the mom was having a rough time because she wasn't hearing what she thought she should be, since the husband was making such good progress.
apparently this is the guy who invented the tty and relay system for deaf people to use the telephone.

After my very long hiatus, I have deleted my myspace and facebook and have decided to just blog here. I know that no one reads it, and I think that's what I prefer. The only person that I care to keep updated is Ant and everyone else can go suck a fuck.
I'm in the worst mood I've been in a long time. Both down/depressed and angry. I wish that when someone called me a bitch when I didn't deserve it, my husband would step in and defend me... but he doesn't. That hurt more than my brother calling me a bitch.
It ruined the otherwise good day of going to the theatre and watching Iron Man. It was a good movie.
When I got home, I wanted to leave and go to my parent's house (that's the only place in the world that I have left, everyone else fucking hates me... and I think I'm starting to be okay with that). But of course, when I go to leave, I can't find my keys or the spare, so I'm here. I'm calmed down a lot though.
Yesterday, I got let go from my job. Apparently my boss' and my personality clash, and he's taking his work home with him... apparently that's my fault. He said that it could be the worst decision he's made, and that he would probably hire me back, and he's like "You might be back for your third time." I wanted to tell him to fuck off... my feelings were so hurt, and I honestly looked up to him like a father and when he lets me go because of my personality (and he said that I haven't been an asshole... and that I work hard, and that he's enjoyed having me there WTF!)... it makes me feel like my dad just told me that I'm useless.
We're pretty sure that I have been fired because his wife told him to let me go... he has no balls, and does whatever she tells him to. I feel absolutely lost.
Next week I'm putting in my resume at another vet clinic that apparently has a position open. The vet there is an amazing vet, but doesn't have much of an easygoing personality... and he's a workaholic, so the clinic is open for 12 hours a day, and you work there six days a week.
Ugh. I'm going to take a shit ton of sleeping pills and sleep until next wednesday.
