Stressed to The MAX

I am unemployed again...for the next three days. I quit my job at the law office I was at, I was UNABLE to deal with one of the attorney's working there, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. He was a jerk, plain and simple. He disrespected me, talked down to me, and barked at me like at a dog. Now I'm not saying employers need to be all mushy gushy praising your every move and accomplishment, but a little bit of respect is always nice in the place you are at 8 hours a day every day. So I put in my two weeks, well 1 1/2 actually, and I left. Two days later I applied for 10+ jobs, and now I have one pending job working at an elementary school that will start this coming Monday, and another interview tomorrow for a position at an insurance company. I am both excited, happy that I am getting responses to my emails, and stressed out at the same time.

I also registered on a website called textbroker.com, which to this day seems pretty legit. I was planning on making extra petty cash from that in my free time. But once I had sent in my writing sample and a copy of my photo ID, I was asked to fill out a W-9 form. All this via internet, mind you. Now although the organization seems legit, and I was looking forward to working for them, at HOME, in my PJS...I do not trust the internet. And I chose not to proceed with the registration because I was worried about mailing the W-9 form with my SSN# to the address provided. So now I am waiting to start my kiddy job. I am so excited to get to work with children. It's a split shift, so I will only get 5 or so hours per day, but I am hoping to find a part time gig to do in between the shifts, if all goes well.

As for my diet and fitness...last time I posted a blog on here, I was 119.8. Today I weighed in at 121.2. This is a little less than 2 pounds of an increase in the span of three months. Not too shabby. But for some reason I have been feeling like a FAT ASS. Not even kidding. Maybe it's because when I was working at the law office, by the time I got home at 5:30-6:00, I wasn't in the mood to do my usual sweat session at home. Or maybe it's due to the fact that I have started buying old fashioned doghnuts at Starbucks every other day. Or maybe a combination of both. All I know is I've only gained to pounds in the past three months, and that means I am NOT too far gone to save. I will save myself, I will save my abs and my awesome arms that look SO FREAKING TONED! I will start working out every day again. Even if that means a 5 minutes ab workout. Or 40 pushups. Even the little things will add up. And it's better then doing nothing. Also I will start THINKING before I consume JUNK food. It never makes me feel better. It doesn't lessen the stress, or make me feel happier after a crap day. It just makes my butt expand and my belly grow. Onward and Outward. This will not be a diet. It will be a lifestyle. And by December 31/January 1, I vow to way 115, if not less. Hopefully this site will hold me accountable.


Ciao for now. I shall try blogging everyday from now on.
