BK's post about not dating a man that doesn't use pillow cases reminded me- I'm pretty sure that xh hasn't changed the bed sheets since I left. In November.
Also, sometimes I feel a little...exhausted thinking about getting to the comfort level I had with xh with someone new. We had been together since I was 16 and starting that whole process all over seems so overwhelming.

I really need to go to the gym tonight, but I've been so busy lately that I just want to go home and get in bed with the half of cheesecake in my refrigerator! LJ was supposed to take it home last night but I forgot to give it to him!

I often whine about this in therapy.
Literally the only thing that is motivating me to go to hot yoga tonight is the fact that I'm going to Chipotle after. Yep, I reward myself with food. And hot yoga is the suck. I've only tried it once so I've committed myself to trying it at least three times before judging.
I get the comfort level thing. In fact, XH tried that about a week after I left him (on Valentine's Day no less). He got me hazelnut chocolate stuff, an apple scented candle (which I still have. He may be a jerk but the candle's good), and reminded me that I'd have to teach a new guy all of this stuff. Idiot.
Now, seven months in with a new guy...it comes. Has Mijo noticed that I like hazelnut chocolate? No. But he has noticed that I fidget when I'm thinking, cover my face during horror movies, refuse to talk if something is really bothering me until I've had time to mull it over, go on cleaning/cooking rampages when pissed, hum when I cook, and that good Italian food and a glass of wine fixes everything when I've had a rough day.

I guess I shouldn't have this fear yet I still kind of do. ExBF knew me very well within 6 months, picked out the perfect restaurants, knew the right flowers/candy, etc. ExH was a douche about everything to the point of using my favorites against me, denying me my favorite things/foods, ridiculing my favorite songs/books/movies.
It took me a long time to have favorites again. Yet the more I think about the more I'm sure the right guy will notice and care.
I learned last night that an acquaintance of mine is a furry.
Thor really wants to move into this place that's a total dump, and I'm probably going to go along with it because I'm too lazy to fight about it.
I drink way too much diet soda.
This weight loss thing is not going well, and I am so discouraged. I quit drinking. I eat around 1200 calories. No I haven't been exercising as much, because I hate it, but seriously?! I used to drink a LOT. And eat a LOT of fast food. I cannot believe that pounds are not flying off of me.
The BF got me a pair of earrings for my birthday last week. I was trying to "fix it" (make the clasp thing tighter) and now I can't get the earrings to close at all. Luckily he purchased the repair warranty thing on them, but I've had them less than a week and don't know if the warranty covers my stupidity.

It's going to be super hot here the next 5 days or so. I hate the heat and I hate humidity. I don't know what else to say. My paycheck is going to suck this Friday. I had to take time off on the 16th for a doctors appt and I don't get any paid time off or vacation pay. So I guess I won't be really doing anything for the next few weeks and strictly sticking to my budget for gas, personal care items, and groceries.
