one small step for me...Category: work
one giant leap for me being on time...
i bought alarm clock today... i am officially becoming a responsible adult. really.
i get up for work everyday at 630. i floss- even though i hate it.
this is a huge deal, after years of using my cell phone, which is never the best idea. i hate having my phone on at night, unless im out or up. so, now i don't have to deal with texts or calls, and i can wake up to that age old lovely buzzing noise that many have come to know and hate...

Oh, and don't floss if you hate it. Just brush 2-3 minutes more than you do normally. It's the DURATION of brushing that favourably affects your risk of getting plaques and decay. This has been epidemiologically observed in studies. But you do need to brush for at least 3 minutes or more after most meals and for a minimum 2 times a day.
Flossing is painful and annoying. I haven't ever flossed and never shall. I don't have a single tooth decay and not much plaque. I am not saying this to feel smug, though. I think it can be attributed, at least in part (I know some hereditary factors have been uncovered), to my obsession with brushing my teeth for a relatively longer period of time.
Some dentists will tell you that brushing too much will erode your enamel. However, if you are careful to:
a) Use a really soft-bristle brush
b) Brush softly and not like your waging war,
brushing for a longer time is as effective as flossing or even more so, against the same end outcomes -> tooth decay/plaque.

OMG. I HATE that alarm clock sound. After years and YEARS of buzzing, beeping and other weird and totally unnatural and masochistic aural assaults, I think my body got fed up or plainly scared spineless of those unpleasant sounds. It's crazy what fear and loathing (in Buffalo) can do. I wake up without any alarms now.
I used to have an escalating-sound radio alarm a while back. It was fun to set it at a classical station and hear the symphony building - in movements as well as in volume in the morning, but that phase didn't last long because my radio died and I am too lazy to replace it. I never listened to real-time radio anyway and used it just for it's alarm clock function.

make it stopso i had this awful tonsilitis. and i had it while i was still w/o ac/ kinda homeless and had to work 12 hrs everyday. well, the meds i took gave my major stomach issues.
i was reduced to eating... toast and sprite and bananas for 8 days. so i was done with that on friday. i went out friday night and had little fun. i was the dd, not one ounce of alcohol, not one.
i ate healthy today, and not even that much, and i come home from work and what do i get???? more stomach issues!!!!!!!!!!! wtf???!!!
i went to church today... because i wanted to. i think i just feel like going to church. i didn't do anything bad or anything, but i just wanted to go. and this is how god rewards me? not fair.
also, it seems many men are trying to hollr at me and the one that i actually like, has not contacted me in four days. now, to a woman that is a lifetime, to a man maybe not.
i think this calls for a massive brownie sundae, even though i will probably be sick ten minutes later...
and i am reverting back to the "shopping for labels, not shopping for love", attitude.

Good luck with everything! Here's hoping the sickness settles and you can shop for love again. :)

estrip.com is for sale...so, still no ac. day 19. i want to sleep in my bed. 19 days of not sleeping in my bed has resulted in several strained back muscles. for real my back is messed up.
i also got tonsilitis over the weekend from god know what. maybe from working 80 hours last week and not getting proper sleep. and the anitbiotic i am on prevents me from eating food. otherwise its some major stomach issues. so its like bananas and crackers until saturday. i learned the lesson the hard way yesterday at the movies, nough said.
finally found the courage to quit my one job...phew.
im making a lot of money, but im somehow always broke. this could be because i spend way too much money on clothes...
and gas is killing me., everything is so spread out here, so i end up spending about 70 a week on gas. thats 280 a month, byebye extra cash...
but i am also in the process of paying of my stupid car which is like over 1000 a month, so i can get it paid off before school starts, so i wont have to worry.
then when i am done paying off the car, i can move on to credit card debt. why i ever got one i don't know. i am go to pay it all off and then get one to pay for gas and pay it off right away to build credit. thats what they say i should do...
i miss buffalo and all of my friend so much right now, i think maybe the most since I've been here. i love it here, but i just need to reconnect with the old sarah and all of buffalo's loveliness. i also miss my sister a ton and this is the longest i have gone without seeing her i think since i was 16 or something crazy like that.
its not right.
quess i will just have to continue working millions of hours so i can make these dreams of trips come true.
if the ac is not fixed by friday, the mom and i are headed to a resort for some major r&R. please god, let it be fixed!!!!!!!!!!!!
i have realised how cool it is to have a lil sis. my cousin is the same age dif as (e:hodown) and i and it's great. she is so cute and pretty and fun, and gives me backrubs when i say. oh the joys!

day 12of no ac at home.
10 more days to go.
poor mom, its either 4000 to fix it now or 1500 to wait for a part to come in. i miss you comfy pillow top mattress!!!!
at least my auntie lives so close and doesn't care that i am staying with her.
why is it that there a million boys, and the one i really like, i don't think its gonna work out with. im going to just let it be, and whatever appens happens. im not gonna chase someone down.
i will quit my one job today. no human should have to work 70+ hours in a week. it makes one do weird things like breakdown and cry at work...
my lil cousin just came back from her trip to ny. i missed her so much. she's like the little sis i never had but now do. i always wanted one, but i used to hate her when she was little. now she is the coolest. i feel like i am giving back a bit. my sis is the best, and now i have a younger one to do what i say and spoil them!
ok, (e:peeps), have a good weekend....
my homesickness has come to a peak and i shall return to the drty buff within the next 3 months... get ready. ;)
