archives... October 2006

• 10/11/06 (9:38 PM): I've been so stressed out I've been grinding my teeth at night. Really not good. Plus, my jaw is killing me! But, my painting project is done enough for critique (although I think it sucks) and one of my hot deadline projects at work was pushed back a few days. I feel a little weight is taken off of my shoulders... but my jaw still hurts. I've had a lot of ups and downs as of late. One day I feel like a million, the next like two. Most of these days has been like two, but I'm trying to keep spirits up. I'm just wearing myself to the bone and I need to balance better. The diet has been nonexistent (although no gain back). I take energy from food, since I have not been sleeping at night. We'll get myself regulated again, right now I'm just trying not to get sick. I get sick when I'm over tired and stressed out.

• 10/08/06 (9:41 AM): So I was starting to feel bad that my post last night sucked. I've been working really hard lately. I have not been able to find the time to get in all my hours at work. This painting class is very time consuming! It's hard making up the 10 hours a week I miss. The gas is also stretching my budget. But, I've been working doing Cayuga Wine Trail Tours for World About Us Tours. It's great extra cash, but I've had no free time of my own to do what I want to do, or spend my time with the boy friend, or to paint, or to put in extra hours at the office. But, when it comes down to it, I need the extra $. Especially since I've had so many car repairs and have an inspection this month (which I'm sure means more car repairs). Did I ever tell you what happened to my car... hmm, reading back I guess I didn't. I decided one night to go puddle jumping (I know it's bad for my car, but I love it). Right after I was done and driving home, the car died. Oops. So, turns out I had a cracked distributor cap that was bad. I guess it's good I found this out going through puddles and not commuting to Rochester on a really raining day. So while my car was in the shop, it was in an accident. The car place was trying to jump start or roll or do something else to another car and it rolled into my car. Sigh. They felt bad and gave me some discounts, but it still sucks. The damage was pretty minimal. So, I called the insurance company of the other car and they said it's Expert Tire's fault. But they put in my claim. So I still have not heard back from the other insurance agency. I guess I'll have to call them tomorrow. I may have to put in the claim myself through Geico, but that will cost me $200 bones... cars are so damn expensive.

• 10/07/06 (9:41 PM): Here is my first painting ever. I'm not a a fan of the bottom left corner. I need to fix that. Color is not my friend. We are working with that now. So tired. Not sleeping enough. Bad post. Sorry.
