half the battle

I absolutely hate, hate, hate being hormonal. I hate that, after the project meeting last night, I bawled. It was pre-Project Runway, pre-beer and if I’d just consumed both items first, I probably would’ve been fine. But the truth is, well it feels like a good friend and I are really drifting and the worst part? The worst part is I don’t even think she realizes it. I don’t think it’s registered with her. And that hurts.

Of course, my hormones were no really helped by the fact that we just found out we’ll probably owe upwards of $2K on our taxes this year. And this even with the breaks from buying a house. It’s because we took $10K from our IRA. And even though it’s penalty-free because it was used towards our down payment, of course it is really not – very obviously NOT – penalty free.

Such is life.

I’m not broke, but I am broke if that makes any sense. I can pay my bills. I can buy a few little extras and I can keep money in savings but it feels as if I can never really get ahead. My car needs new tires and new brakes. Oh, and a tune-up. The orange cat may need more doctor visits.

Oh well, I’m going to get my hair cut after work. And it will cost a lot of money. But it will make me feel good and I guess that, these days, that’s half the battle.
