Well, here I am, sipping on a cocktail, reflecting on my day. It was a day that made me need a drink...
I will not bore you with the details of work, only that sometimes my boss is such a Fuc*&%#&$king idiot it kills me, the shit he expects, the lack of reality in his thought process, I don't know why I let it get to me. Well, I know a little, that the stupid ass decisions he makes could potentially make my life really crazy. However, work is always crazy, it is always overwhelming, and normally I just roll through it. Most of the time I can say "whatev man, I'll do what I can, and you'll give me a paycheck...no skin off my ass..." Today was not one of those days. I let it get the better of me, I got pissed off, and let it get it to me. I get so dissapointed with myself when that happens. I am a crazy emotional girl, and I am always trying to reel it in a bit! Blaaaaahhhhhhh, enough of that.
The good news, I did not reach for a bag of chips or eat a whole cake, I went to the gym and worked out ferociously to the point of near collapse. I had a nice shower, and now I'm having a cocktail. AND I'm tracking it.
I also had someone come up to me at work today and ask me if I was losing weight, that I looked good. I almost let some sarcastic response fly out of my mouth, but instead collected myself, and simply said "yes, thank you!" This is a huge deal for me, as I am horrible at recieving compliments or positive feedback of any kind, it makes me so uncomfortable!! WTF?
So tomorrow is a new day. I will drive to work in the snow, yes, more snow is coming, and I will control myself during my meeting, I will not give a flying shit what my boss says, because in the grand sceme of life, it really doesn't matter.
Good night ladies. T G I F F !!!

Your post made me smile! You are doing so great! I hate it when work gets the best of me too. The corporate world is such a funny place. The biggest idiots all seem to be the decision makers.
ReplyDeleteCorporate America blows! Cocktails rule! Tomorrow will be better! I'm bad at accepting compliments too. I get so embarrassed. We'll get over it when it's happening ALL THE TIME! Oh, this again? Yeah, thanks. I know. I'm hot.
ReplyDeleteF that potato head and his potato head ways!! Don't let him take your peace. Your doing extraordinarily well considering your work load and lack of help. You are awesome... and on your way to being super skinny!!
