    For the next three days we are having big meetings at work and I will be taking notes on a whiteboard. Trying to decide what to wear when 30+ construction contractors will be staring at my butt for an hour was a little daunting!!

    Well, just putting myself in the contractors place...skirt and heels.

    I can't wear skirts or heels but I went for good butt jeans, shirt that is a little lower cut in front and back, and piggytail braids. Lol.

    I confess that sounds pretty much just as good as a skirt and heels.

    Ha Ha JK - that is awesome. I would have totally went for the butt jeans!! But the braids are just fantabulous!

    I'm somewhat envious of your position! LOL!

    Their weather this year has almost cured me of missing it but I will be there in June once it finally gets warm. I will probably still be in jeans and sweatshirts while everyone else is in tanktops and shorts.

    The weather in central Illinois was bad from October until about early April. It even snowed here in mid April when I was on vacation. It's finally warmed up but even now it either storms or looks like its going to storm more days than not. This has been a brutal year.

    I confess that it is time for a new job. This one has pushed me to my end at this point. Actually left work yesterday full of rage (never had that before), went into the woods and just slammed tree limbs against trees until they splintered and shattered.

    Have some minor cuts and blisters on my hands today as a reminder.

    I go to the batting cages when feeling like that. Less likely I will get hurt.

    I confess that I am so excited to be done with classes for the semester!!! Have to take five finals, sing my jury, and accompany a few other people, and then I will officially have completed one half of my Master's degree!

    1 - Ok, so I have to confess that, your fit of rage sounded kind of hot. I would have totally been the woman that made you temporarily distracted for a bit, in order to get your temper down. Yes I'm weird. I know.
    2 - Correct, new job, going to somewhere everyday that just withdraws from your emotional bank account.....yep, just get out of there.
    3 - I swear every time I go to your profile, and I read Ann Arbor....I quietly giggle, something about "Ann Arbor is a who#%" - blame my old coworker, he said it all the time, I don't exactly know what it means....but yeah.

    Chin up man. You'll find another way (whether it's a new job or not) to add to your emotional bank account. :flowerforyou:

    Lol, not even sure what to say to 1 or 3. Of course when I was really angry, I didn't want to be around anyone. Not saying that I would have turned that down of course.

    But yes, actively looking for a new position and one that may allow me to move to a new part of the country.

    I confess that I've been watching videos of my in-class performances this semester, and it is some serious motivation. I am always wearing makeup, skirt and heels with my hair done, so all I can think when I watch it, is "damn, I am pretty, but the extra has got to go!" Is it weird to be excited about the hot girl that's slowly emerging?? :laugh:

    I confess I'm feeling like a huge as weiner going to my gym. No body has said anything or pointed fingers but gosh darn it they seem mean.

    I sure hope this isn't how I'm supposed to feel?

    I am 99.99% sure this is all in your head. Most people at the gym don't even notice you are there unless you are using a piece of equipement they want to use.

    This. I guarantee it. I have been approached by both men and women at my gym but it's always to let me know about my progress and they congratulate me. I don't talk about my weight loss but it does show physically and I get noticed by gym regulars.

    I confess I have no interest on going back to the gym, I just don't like the people there getting in my way :laugh: I much prefer playing outside and doing some workouts at home on my own.

    And...I still don't feel the need to find a bf, but would love to get another cat, I hope I won't turn into a crazy cat lady :tongue:

    I gaze at other people at the gym, mostly because it hurts my neck to just stare at the floor all the time. I'm usually thinking one of the following:
    "Awesome work, keep it up"
    "Impressive, I should try that"
    "I wonder what muscle that works"

    The only time I think something negative is if someone is being a **** or hogging the squat rack while texting.

    I totally get this. I've been getting hit on a lot more often at work and it is such an esteem-booster. I've never been the type to think, "I am so pretty" but having men stare at me and find random things to strike up a conversation with me about is making me feel like I just might be kinda cute. (: lol.

    Yay! It's a really fun feeling, isn't it? I used to talk to guys at bars (because I am super outgoing) and see them try to figure out how long they needed to be polite before making an exit, and now I am the one trying to figure that out! Haha :)

    It's a great feeling, I love it. There was a customer in my workplace a few nights ago who is very handsome. We kept constant (almost to the point of creepy haha) eye contact and he tried any way possible to strike up a conversation with me. I was too shy to ask if he was single or not, but it was super fun. I can't wait to see him again just so we can flirt some more lol.

    I confess that I'm really struggling with trying to figure out if I should ask the dude who gave me his number (but then failed to actually text me once I texted him) if he wants to hang out or if i should just consider his nonexistent texts my hint to leave him alone.

    I also confess I think he's a little weirded out by our age difference, I'm 23 and he's 45 or 46.

    He may be married!
    On an ego boost!
    Having a mid life crisis!

    My gut instinct is to leave it. :flowerforyou:

    I'm friends with someone who used to work with him and he's single as far as they know, so I'm ruling out the married option haha.

    I'm leaving it for right now. If he comes into my workplace and asks why I haven't texted him or whatever, I'll just let him know how I felt I was always reaching out without a reply. Everything will work out in the end.
