the universe hates my friend, betsi. it hates me too.

1 month ago i started a new job. it was time. 10 years with hallmark and it was time to move on. after many long days, long hours, a boss that i am positive hates me, i have spent many car rides home in tears and many late nights of regret.

after 8 months of dating someone that i adored, he called it off this weekend. i expected it. he had an expiration date stamped right across his forehead. what i didn't see coming was for him to hand over so much pain. i knew a reality check and a difficult conversation were coming within a few months. i didn't expect a kick in the gut nor did i expect it this early. hearts don't break evenly--so says that country song.

i found a plumber to help me with my bathtub. i had saved the money and was finally getting it replaced. my over-protective sister did a background check on him for me and come to find out he just got out of lansing federal prison. awesome.

and lastly, at one point i was planning to be in mexico this week with said adorable boy. instead i am in kc, spending a great deal of time curled up under a blanket crying, no more adorable boy and a crap bathtub with no plumber.

stupid universe. find 2 other girls to pick on.
