I'm sorry he turned out to be a lying liar who lies, but I am glad to hear that when you figured it out you dumped him for being a lying loser.

I'm not sure where you are in Illinois, but some NPS sites in IL, Indiana, and Kentucky that I've enjoyed include:

IL - Lincoln Home National Historic Site: www.nps.gov/liho/index.htm
IN - Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore: www.nps.gov/indu/index.htm
IN - George Rogers Clark National Historical Park: www.nps.gov/gero/index.htm
IN - Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial: www.nps.gov/libo/index.htm (it's near Holiday World theme park, if that appeals to you, lol)
KY - Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historical Park: www.nps.gov/abli/index.htm
KY - Mammoth Cave National Park: www.nps.gov/maca/index.htm

Yes, not huge but enough to make me happy! My boss was apologetic he couldn't do more and has already said next year he hopes to up the pay in the new fiscal year.

I'm home from work and my head is aching most likely from sinus pressure. It is gorgeous outside, but the pain medicine doesn't seem to be helping my headache. I just want to go to bed!

Tomorrow is my Friday, thank heavens! Also, I never heard about the job (they said I would hear last week), so I hope I hear something tomorrow. A part of me thinks they offered the job to someone else and the person took the weekend to think about it.

I gave someone a factual argument as to why the Confederate flag is racist in origins and that it does not represent freedom (as she claimed it does) and she fucking made a status about how people are "lashing out at her" and "making her feel stupid" followed by a "haha. LOL. hope u feel better. i feel great. ur not bringing me down at all." WTF...this chick is going to be 30 fucking years old this year.

To the Tinder Dude who thinks I don't respond quickly enough (and is about to get unmatched):


To the people I interviewed with who still haven't told me anything:


To myself after asking a guy on Tinder to get drinks soon and he said yes:


To my friend who called to tell me her friend (not my friend) is pregnant:

Question: I bought some fresh cherries for the smoothie. Do I de-seed them before or after I freeze them? @pdx18 bl

Then I would just ignore the family and quit talking to them. I assume they are soon to be your ex-in-laws, so no need to waste effort on them when you know you did the humane thing for the kitten.

Did you take it to a vet who decided to put it down? I'm kind of confused.

I called to set up a passport appointment and there is a damn 3 week wait. Which I'm still fine on time, but OMG. Why is the wait so far out? If I go home soon I may swing by the little town post office that does passports because you don't have to set up appointments there...that's how little town it is, lol.

I am doing laundry right now. I need to go by the store later, but really that's it on my must-do list. So I see myself hanging out by the pool later and hopefully finishing up the book I'm reading.

I bought a desk and use it as a makeup vanity (note: the ugly white shelf to the left of the desk is temporary, lol):


I LOVE doing my makeup in my bedroom. The lighting is wonderful in the morning, but I also have my close-up lighted mirror that I use in conjunction with natural lighting. At night I was my face in the bathroom, but then do my skincare routine at my desk. My makeup is stored away in the drawers, although now I have a spinning brush holder on the top and an acrylic divider for skincare. I also bought the plastic piece that people put under office desks and put it under the makeup desk for easy clean up if something falls.

As far as washing my hands, I bought some cheap washcloths that I keep in the middle drawer and I wipe my hands on a washcloth as I go about my routine, but really I mainly use it after I apply foundation. For most everything else I use brushes. Each week when I do laundry I just wash the cloths with the towels.

I sold my engagement ring to a jeweler for about 25% of what was initially paid. They didn't want my wedding band and the best offer I had on it was something like $25. I don't know what I want to do with it, so it's just sitting in my jewelry box. I kind of want to throw it into the river that divides the two places we lived together, but then I feel guilty at the idea of littering, lol.

8. Give us something juicy – anything!
Um, nothing juicy comes to mind. I'm pretty boring.
