I almost paid retail for a Subway sandwich.

Fortunately the cashier had an extra, it was a close call.

Oh and I also need a haircut.

I've had a great week, got a new job that pays more, I'll be working less, driving less, put in my resignation and it went over cleanly with no burned bridges, my little girl had her 2nd birthday yesterday and her birthday party is tomorrow. we'll actually have company over (we live 200miles from most of our reletives) for the first time in months. Life is good, it's all about your outlook of it.

I did two grand's worth of damage to my mustang

all while visiting my on again, off again gf... in the middle of the big blizzard last weekend.... we're really struggling.... bottom line is that she's really really selfish and drives me to write sh!t like this

I am sensitive and I always try my best to make you happy and feel loved.

When we?re sleeping together and you yell at me for ?breathing on you? when I just was trying to be close to you, I feel hurt.

When you leave me with 6 inches of bed space and then get mad at me when I toss and turn because I?m so uncomfortable, I feel hurt.

When you automatically expect me to pay for dates instead of being happy that I?d relieve you of your half of the burden, I feel hurt and used.

When we?re in the heat of the moment and you only think about what you want and make me feel guilty for having my own desires, I feel hurt and used.

When at the end of an amazing night, you can?t even muster up the desire or compassion to roll over and give me a meaningful hug when I leave, I feel hurt and used.

Even when I?m hurt inside, you can always twist an ?I love you? out of me because it?s always true. I don?t think I can say the same about you, because whenever you get hurt inside, you want to break up with me.

If you really love me, it would really mean a lot to me if you would show it.

I'll read it to her the next time I see her.... AIM is a disaster for us....

my horrible weak resulted of figuring out where to go to grad school. finding housing for next school year. doing group case studies that are still not done. failing an exam because of all the other things that needed to be done. prep all week for an office visit which is going to be hard b/c i'll be meeting partners from the firm.

but probably not as bad as you real world working ppl ;)

I've been putting off getting my haircut for over two months.

My week was going OK untill I got stood up on a 1st date on Friday - so my mates decided to take me out clubbing.....

....The entrance fee was $35, but to pissed to realize. Then in the club my wallet got stolen resulting in a 10 mile walk home (finaly got home at around 7:00am).

I've no money for food, ciggies, petrol or to go out to the pub tonight (will have to wait till the bank opens on Monday)

My TV stopped producing sound from any output.

Just checked my post and I've got a court summonds.

Work has been easy all week, took a nice 2 hour lunch with the boss and some other folks on Friday. Last night went to a hockey game with the girlfriend and ended the evening with lovin' from said girlfriend;). My roommate actually paid me rent this week and my tax return might end up being bigger than I first thought.

No complaints here. :D

Damn, guess my week wasn't so bad.
Got ringworm from the in-laws cats and had to go to the doctor for it. Edit: Doctor wanted to do bloodwork for other things but I had to decline because apparently my medical insurance doesn't cover bloodwork until I've spent $500 in a calendar year. :|
The one morning that I have to head east and leave early is the one morning that there are 3 seperate wrecks on the interstate causing traffic to be backed up for miles and miles. I swear all the bad drivers of the world were out that day as things didn't get much better after I got past the traffic jam. :roll:
Finally the car needed $240 in service.

I too have nothing to complain about except a very uneventful week... (knock on wood, I appreciate the humdrum and don't take it for granted.. it is in a sense what I have "worked to achieve")...

To all those that are going through sh!t, best of luck wading through it, and take solace in the fact that you're building character and making yourself stronger! :beer:

i was sick all week, but had to go to work. it was the
longest week of my working life &, top it off, i
couldn't do any powerlifting.

this is absolutely amazing, but true: i needed a haircut, but was too exhausted after work to get one
