My professional misery is over! I am officially on a new team with a manager who couldn’t be more opposite of my horrible witch boss. I felt a literal weight lift off my body when the announcement was made.

I think emotional release is an important component of healing, so it sounds to me like you’re right on track.

I LOVE AMAZON PRIME. I buy literally everything on it, and their movie/show selection is better/different than Netflix, and I use their music for all my downloads too, because my credit cards give me Amazon credit, so I never have to pay for any music.

You sound like a good mom! I’m happy for your happy weekend. :)

He was like crazy hot in that movie. I just couldn’t even. I haven’t told my husband my thoughts because, duh, he won’t get it, but I’m glad to be able to tell you right now.

I love Fixer Upper. The rapport of the hosts is so endearing, and the homes turn out lovely each time. It’s great feel-good escapism.

My husband and I booked an impromptu trip to Florida to visit his parents in a couple weeks, and I couldn’t be happier. His mother spoils us silly whenever we visit, so I’m looking forward to several days of lazing on the beach, drinking chardonnay, taking naps and eating the abundance of snacks that will be at our…

I have a cold, and I hate it.

BCBG usually has a great variety of dresses and often at a great variety of discounts. If you can get that brand at a department store, even better.

I was recently introduced to the Neiman Marcus line Le Metier de Beaute, and I have to say, their lipstick is phenomenal. Great color, long lasting, non-drying. My lips are thrilled and looking fab. I’m also a sucker for Chanel lipstick and, of course, their volumizing mascara.

Not drinking anymore, but I just got back from a Gourmet Food Tour of my city that involved a glass of sparkling rose, two glasses of white, a glass of regular rose and a nice cup of coffee to finish it off. Not a bad Saturday afternoon.

I’m looking, but I feel the job process usually moves at a snail’s pace. Hopefully not this time!

You are a goddess and an inspiration. If my husband and I weren’t currently trying to save money for our actual dream life, I would have done that a month ago.

It does seem to very rarely be the female empowerment scenario we see presented on sites like this. Even when the women start out with that attitude, I think the system is pretty mysoginistic and can trample a person down.

Hahaha I’m dying. “It’s not cool though.”

Haha I’m never mad at him about it. It’s just so real and upsetting that I need that comfort afterward.

Yeah, it’s just the pay is pretty decent, and anything I take fast would likely mean a considerable cut. And we’re trying to save to buy property out of the city. As my husband put it, “Don’t let that crazy bitch ruin what we’re working toward too.” (Too being in addition to my work life, at this moment.)

Booo, world. Boooo.

I thought it was really good and thought provoking.

I have no advice, but I am so sorry!
