Update

Not sure if anyone is still reading this blog. I’m not even sure what inspried me to read this blog (yes I do. I’ll get to it in a minute).

I’ll start by saying I miss all you readers! We’ve all been neglecting our blogs and it happens. Life does get in the way. But I want all of you to know that I miss being apart of your lives and I hope all is well.

It’s been awhile since I’ve last updated and of course, a lot has changed. Some good, some not so good. Here’s what I’ve been up to:

–In my annual evaluation at work, I got a score of unsatisfactory. Management is giving me 30 days to “drastically improve my performance” or risk disciplinary action including termination. I’m only a little bit surprised, but not at all caught off guard. I’m in the process of looking for another job and I have an interview this week (wish me luck)! I’m going to do my best to improve here so that I can buy myself a little more time in finding another job.

–I’ve managed to rack up $1000 worth of debt on the corporate CC. Kind of funny (not ha ha), since this time last year, I racked up the same amount on it after I crashed my car. Only this time, I don’t have a check from the insurance company to pay it off. My boss caught on to my antics and asked me about a few charges. I got off with a warning not to use the card inappropriately again. I’ve got something like 20 days to pay the balance off or risk the account being suspended and being reported to the credit bureau.

–Speaking of money, I’ve got a couple of expenses to take care of and no money with which to do it! Its going to take a miracle for me to get everything squared away without causing too much more damage. I quit my second job a few weeks back. Yeah, I could use the extra money but, I just cannot continue to keep working there, mainly because…

–I’m moving back home! Yes, yes. After just a year on my own, I’m going back home. I really need to get my finances in order and I can’t do that while paying rent. Plus, if I am going to get fired, I don’t want to have to wrorry about how I’m going to pay rent. That and, I want to find a new job in NYC. I’m done with New Jersey.

–Brandon and I are still together and going strong. I’m really happy with him. We hit a bit of a snag the other day, but what couple doesn’t have misunderstandings every now and again? We’re good. I’m happy. That’s all that matters.

–I ran into my ex over the weekend. Actually, we’ve had a couple of interactions in the last few weeks. That’s what inspired me to revisit this blog. I’m walking down [bad] memory lane and reminding myself not to go there again. Not that I would ever do anything to hurt Brandon. Last week, my ex sent me a few drunk texts. After we made some small talk, he said, “if you need someone to fuck, text me”. I was upset! Not going to lie, I was excited to hear from him, thinking “a drunk tongue speaks a sober mind. But on that note, is that the only way you think of me? Over the weekend that passed, we were all at a bar for male BFFs birthday. Brandon came with me and my ex was all over some girl. It seemed that no matter where I turned, they were together. She’s the friend of a classmate. I didn;t even know they knew each other! I was sad, of course, and I felt really bad that I felt that way, especially with Brandon present. My ex didn’t speak to me. Wouldn’t even make eye contact with me. I guess he forgot that he texted me just last weekend trying to come to my place *rolls eyes*. At the end of the night, I sent him a text saying, “why do you have to act like that”? He didn’t respond until hours later saying, “who’s this”? Apparently he lost all his contacts. I didn’t respond. I guess that’s really the end of that. :-\

–No. I’m not sure how I feel about that. I don’t exactly miss him. but I still wish things didn’t turn out this way with us.

–I’m still fat. Getting in shape is still one of my priorities. I just haven’t met it yet. Now that I’m moving back home, I can probably afford some dance classes or maybe even a trainer. I’m going to try to take a dance class with a friend over the weekend. I’m actually looking forward to it.

–Speaking of getting active, I’ve begun the process of reactivating my memberships in a few organizations. It will be nice to meet new people and to have something to do with my free time (not like I’m anticipating having much of it). Overall, I’m excited about that area of my life.

–I need to get back in the habit of blogging. I’m almost vertain I’m going to create a new blog. If you’re still interested in keeping up with me, leave a comment here and I’ll post a link to the new blog. If no one comments, I’ll just start over as a stranger somewhere else.

It was nice catching up! If any readers are still reading, send me links to your new blogs or leave a comment letting me know what’s up with you!
