I am so sorry if I worried anybody with my last post. I really shouldn't post when I'm in the middle of a panic attack. It's never a good idea. I made it through though, as you may have guessed, so at least there's that.
I am all moved. Have been since April 19th. Finances are extra tight, but we're making do. Aldi is our best friend, and I've been using my UDF card thingie (like the Speedway ones) to help with gas costs. Ben's going to look into a seasonal job at the same place our friend Rob works, loading cars at a garden center. After that, he's agreed to try and find a different job. And great news, he's going to start paying on his student loans when we move in with Jeff in two months (cuz our costs will but cut down quite a bit with a third person paying). All kinds of great news.
I was out of all my psych meds for a week or so, and the damn Rite Aid STILL hasn't filled one of them (the one that helps with the hallucinations). Unfortunately, that's the one with really bad withdrawal effects. Ugh. So I've been sleeping and not doing much the last few days. I'm trying to get myself out of that funk, and it's working bit by bit. So yays!
I've been using MyFitnessPal again for the past week or so. I've lost a few pounds already (seven, to be exact, though I bet a lot of that was water weight). It's nice to see the numbers go down on the scale again. I'm also on the poor diet, too, so that's a lot of it. The poor diet, for those who don't know, is what you go on when you're poor and can't afford snack foods and sweets. For obsessive snackers like me, it works wonders. Though I do miss cake. And cookies. And brownies. And candy. And chocolate. And chips. And popcorn. You can see where this is going. Though we have been bad. On Friday, we bought a carton of Chocolate Moose Tracks at Meijer (did you know they no longer have the half gallon cartons anymore? They only have the tubs with 1.75 quarts, fuck!). We also bought a metric assload of discounted Easter candy awhile back, but most of that was eaten during our Thursday night Pathfinder game. So, saved calories. Gods, now I want cookies. Beets for breakfast is no way to live.
Been on an absolute horror movie binge as of late. I blame The Conjuring. I watched it, then decided to hit up Netflix and watch V/H/S. Then I decided sleep was for the weak and watched V/H/S 2 (which wasn't as good as the first, but was still quite good). Then, the next night, I watched Silent Hill Revelations. Also good. And now I wanna watch more, but Netflix's selection of good horror movies is very limited, and I don't want to watch ones I've already seen so my extensive collection is out. I'd have to dig through my boxes in the second bedroom to find them, anyway. Bloody hell. >_<
Oh, and the Dayton Metro library system needs to die in a fire. I can't get a card again until I pay off the $74 I owed them from 5 YEARS AGO! Fucking hell! I have never been to a library system that didn't forgive fines after a year or two. Never. Even Springfield forgave fines after awhile. The thing was, when Jim kicked me out, I had some DVDs and books from the library still checked out. I figured it'd be okay if I took them to Lakeview with me, because I'd be able to take them back in a few weeks. Those few weeks turned into a few months, and then I finally turned them all back in. All of them. So that $74 from five years ago is ALL FINES. I never thought I'd say this, but the library can fuck off. I don't need their damn card that bad. Fuck them. But Ben has a card, so if I need something (we've been getting DVDs), I have his. So fuck you, Dayton Metro! Suck it!
I have a whole mess load of exercise DVDs me and Ben need to try out. I obviously have a lot of weight to lose (about 150 pounds or so), and Ben's got a bit of a beer belly showing up, so we neeeeeeeed to exercise. Also, we need to get my back tire filled on my bike, and he needs to get his back tire completely fixed. Then we can start going for bike rides. The weather is being gorgeous for us, so we should take advantage of it. It's Ohio, after all. As the quote goes, if you don't like the weather in Ohio, just wait fifteen minutes.
Oh, and I found this website that lets you take free college courses. How awesome is that? It's coursera, and I'm taking an archeology class right now. They give you video lectures to watch and quizzes to take. It's so much fun! *is SUCH a nerd*
I should be doing dishes. Shh, don't tell on me.
