Overall Mood:  Sleepy / Lazy

Specific Behavior:  Went to Walmart to originally get a new football jersey.  They didn't have a Shockey one, so I went to the makeup department and bought the clean and clear acne kit.  Which means the stuff I bought at Pathmark the other day would need to be returned.  Bought some coke that was on sale.  Went to Billy's to watch the game.  Hung out with Shannon and Mari for the first time in weeks, and of course we sat and did nothing.  But we are all broke so what do you want me to do?  Took a nap after they left.

Thought Patterns:  Don't want to go to work tomorrow.  How does this house loose three football jerseys in two weeks.  Why my mother hasn't dried my laundry after she asked me if she wanted her to forward the laundry for me?  Why Billy always has something to say, and doesn't know when to shut the fuck up!  I am starting to think, since I started this journal that he has the problems, and makes my problems worse.  Makes me feel like I am nothing but an out of control disaster.  But he is the one who is really out of control I think.  There was no reason for those hurtful words to be said because I wasn't wearing the lap belt in my car.  He was out of control.

Relationships:  Fight with Billy that originated with a seat belt, and went into how I am such an idiot, and how I am such a fuck up, and I don't listen to anything anyone has to say, and I know it all, and that is why I'll get mine.  He kept going on, and I kept telling him to stop.  After he didn't, I told him to shut the fuck up multiple times until we got back.  He wouldn't quit.  Got extremely pissed off. 

Spending:  4 for $5 Coke Special.  Clean and Clear Acne Kit.  Bill's cigarettes and ice cream.  His dad's milk, which I still haven't seen the $5 bucks for.  I don't even live there anymore, and he just expects me to pay $5 for milk?  $5 is a lot for a gallon of milk.  These prices are out of control.

Family:  Fight with my Mother about my football jersey's missing, and why my laundry was sitting in the washer for days after she asked me if I wanted her to forward them to the dryer.  Why would you tell me that and leave them in there all weekend?  They had to be washed again.

Job:  N/A.

Responsibilities:  None, I could have just put on my lap belt and stopped Billy from going off, but it was the principle of the subject that it was my car, and my responsibility to buckle the second belt.  And how its nice for him to care and all, it was still my responsibility and he couldn't make me do it.  Drove him nuts I think.  But he should not of said those things "out of spite" because he didn't get his way.  That was just ridiculous.   I didn't say anything back out of spite however, which is living up to my goals.  I simply told him to stop, and to shut up when he didn't stop, and that he was upsetting me, and pissing me off.  Never did I say anything along the lines that you are nothing but a pothead, or your going nowhere in your life, or something along those lines, that you would probably hear his parents say.  I didn't return fire with that, and totally stopped myself from doing so.  Proud.

Eating Patterns:  Bowl of cereal, half a cup of coffee, piece of Billy's sandwich he couldn't finish, and my Smart Ones dinner from the day before.  Alfredo and Broccoli!

Overall Mood:   Panic / Anxious

Specific Behavior:   Spent most of the day watching television and just relaxing.  Filled out a lot of job applications online.  Best Buy called me up and scheduled me for an interview.  Next Saturday at 10AM with Valerie.  Started to panic about the drug test and if I would be clean by that time.

Thought Patterns:   Drug Test, Job Search, Why can't the perfect job just land on my lap?

Productivity:  Scheduled an interview with Best Buy, and filled out a lot of job applications.

Sleep Patterns:  Slept like a baby, had a nightmare about Bill.  It went like;  I went to Bill's in the early AM to buy him Dunkin' Donuts before his parents woke up.  I was laying down in his bed while he was drinking his French Vanilla Coffee Coolata.   Just then his parents barge in the room and start accusing me of sleeping over, and kick Bill out of the house.  Threw all his shit on the front lawn, and then I woke up.

Relationships:  A small fight with Bill on the phone because I couldn't hear him because he was in his room, and there is no reception in there.  I was getting kinda annoyed at the fact I couldn't hear a word he said, and was speaking a bit loud because I hate repeating myself.  Number one thing that really upsets me.  He accused me of being rude over the phone with my tone, and I was getting pissed so I said goodbye and ended the conversation before it go ugly.

Spending:  Went to pathmark, bought that Clean And Clear Acne Medication,  some Tyson Chicken Tenders, French Fries, Broccoli, a Smart Ones Fettucini Alfredo Dinner thing, Deodorant, and an orange.  Spent like 50-60 bucks.

Family:  Nothing really to report.

Job:  N/A

Responsibilities:  None today.

Eating Patterns:  A bowl of cereal, a cup of coffee, a piece of a sandwich, a slice of chicken, some french fries and lots of broccoli smothered in butter.  I ate a lot again today.

Overall Mood:  Stressed / Anxious / Jittery

Specific Behavior:  Left on time to get to work this morning, which caused a beginning of a stress free day.  All that changed when I tried to handle a tech call about a P900 Printer that wasn't working with the terminal.  Steve was busy with Dave again, what a surprise.  Jack overheard the phone conversation and he then he came behind me and said "Why isn't the knowledge base open, why was I putting them on hold, Why wasn't I troubleshooting, Why I was acting completely unprofessional, etc"  He then continued to threaten my job once again.  But he's all talk because if that were the case I would be fired already.  That comment is kept to myself.  After that I was a little shooken' up, and a little stressed out but I knew I couldn't blame him because this company has a reputation to uphold, and by acting unprofessional on the phone with the word "Um," said a couple of times gives the company a bad image.  If I owned the company and an associate did that, I would be pretty upset.  I can't blame him at all.  After he yelled at me, he came back a couple minutes later, and talked to me and explained why he flipped.  I did appreciate that a lot.  Coming from him thats almost a compliment. And I completely understand until I show him I can handle this tech position, I will not get my hours back, so I need to work hard at handling these tech problems better.  Got paid today, so I filled up my tank, bought a carton of cigarettes and pizza.  Probably because I was a little upset from work, my impulse spending caused me to buy the pizza.  Not to upset about the carton of cigarettes, it was only 66 bucks, and it will take care of two weeks, so I wont have to buy another pack until I get paid again.  Now I have 270 to play around with, and that's fine.  I need to go out tomorrow, and get deodorant, that clean and clear acne kit and chocolate.

Thought Patterns:  Society, money, my financial situation, why I can't handle a simple tech call without getting yelled at, why I can't do anything right according to my boss, and how it needs to be my personal goal to get it right, and my job, will I still have one?

Productivity:  Got a new debit card because my other one got stolen.  Luckily no charges went to the account yet, must have just gotten taken.  Got gas, pizza and cigarettes. 

Sleep Patterns:  Slept like a baby through most of the night once in weeks.  Maybe manic mode is subsiding.  Hopefully.

Relationships:  Sex drive pulsating need Bill now! 

Spending:  Tank of gas, $30, Carton of cigarettes, $66.77, Pizza, $21.56.  Knowing I am broke?  Priceless!

Family:  Actually today my mother was really pissing me off.  Telling me that she needs the money I owe her, and this and that.  Hounding me about creditors calling the house phone.  And what I am doing with these bills.  Then she managed to repeat this series of questions for almost a half hour before I told her to fuck off.  I asked nicely for her to stop multiple times, and she just kept going and really getting to me, so I snapped.  Then she asked me why I was so snippy with her for another ten minutes before I got up and walked away, before I slapped her something fierce.

Job:  Explained above.

Responsibilities:  Failed at my job today, took care of the debit card issue, that's pretty much it.

Eating Habits:  3 Garlic Knots, and 3 of those Garlic Knots with the meat inside and a slice of pizza.  Totally overate.

Overall Mood:  Anxious / Jittery / Hard to think / Unstable

Specific Behavior:  Left late to work, causing me to have a panic attack in the car as a sped almost 80 miles an hour the whole way there, praying to god a cop wouldn't pull me over.  Managed to do everything I was supposed to at my job, and my boss was in a decent mood today, so it was pleasant.  I felt dizzy the whole day, I felt like I was driving like shit and was unaware of the world around me.  I felt like I was in a daze all day.  I felt I couldn't concentrate on anything today.

Thought Patterns:  Mind was racing pretty much the whole day today.  About high school, and the friends I used to hang out with and never see anymore.  About how a screwed up in high school, and didn't graduate and had to settle for a GED.  How I ruined my potential.  How I could have graduated that Cisco class and had an apprenticeship by now, making some serious cash.  How I didn't go to college, and how much I want to go back, but can't because of my financial situation.  Worrying how I am going to pay these credit cards, when my hours will go back to normal, so I can get out of this hole.  Worried about Billy and whats going to happen with his living situation.  Wondering if Josh is going to move out, or was he just saying that for attention.  Why I can't sleep.  Why after 4 hours of sleep I feel like I had 8.  Will I be able to sleep tonight?  Why I can't think straight today at all.

Productivity:  Did the laundry, shaved, and cleaned my room.  Pretty productive today, because of the high amounts of energy I have today.

Sleep Patterns:  Estimating 3 hours of sleep all together, with the nap at Bill's and when I came home.

Relationships:  Increased Sex Drive.  Had sex twice and was loving it.  Wanting more.  No fights today with Bill.  He made me mac&cheese today, and it was awesome, but could have been better if he didn't put oregano in it.  Ewwie, next time I'll tell him not to do that.  Kinda upset my tummy a little bit. 

Spending:  Have no money to spend.

Family:  No problems today, we are on a roll.

Job:  Felt accomplished, and my boss was in a good mood, so I was more relaxed instead of stressed.  Kinda pissed off at the fact that Steve is supposed to be working with me, and I would ask him to do things, and he doesn't because he is working with Dave on Advertising because Dave can't use Photo Shop to make his ad's pretty and Steve can.  So when he is stuck doing that I am on my own.  It really got to me today, for some reason.  It like he'd be better off not there at all because he is doing nothing to help me.

Responsibilities:   Took care of them today.

Eating Habits:  A bowl of cereal, and a cup of coffee.  Some Red Barron Pizza I made for my Dad, and a small bowl of mac&cheese Billy made for me at his house.

Overall Mood:  Busy/Anxious

Specific Behavior: 
Kept myself extremely busy today occupying myself at work today.  Doing the tasks that needed to be done, but dread doing because of how tedious they are.  Did not ask once for something to do.  Kept myself busy because I didn't want to think of the events that unfolded yesterday with Billy and I.  Didn't want to think about if he actually broke up with me for real and how I would get over him.  When Billy texted me with a picture of him with a shaved beard, I was pretty excited!  Also very surprised because I wasn't expecting him to call today at all.  Of course I am glad he did, and we talked about some personal afflictions in our relationship, and we discussed our feelings about passed events.  He wanted me to come over which was another big surprise for me because I didn't expect it and thought he still needed his space.  I felt extremely ill from the day before because of the puking in the middle of the night.  So when I got there I was beat and pretty much wanted to sleep.  Which was also good because he wanted to cuddle.  That was also another huge surprise!  He almost never wants to cuddle.  He's too manly for that.

Thought Patterns:  Wondering what would become of me and Billy.  Surprised that he called me.  Excited I didn't make the first attempt to call him and make myself look desperate as I said before I wanted to work on.  Upset because I was sick and couldn't stay awake and take advantage of the full benefits of cuddling with the boyfriend!

Productivity:  Managed only to get yelled at once today, for again Steve not training me properly.  I used a test card over the phone, and apparently I am not supposed to do that.  Doing the work of two people because Steve called out. 

Sleep Patterns:  Took a nap at Bill's house.  Came home around 10:30PM and I felt like I got a total of 4 hours of sleep.  I had a huge problem getting to sleep and was so close to taking a couple of Xanex.  But I didn't.  I am proud of myself.  I kept waking up like every two hours, and taking another hour to get asleep.

Relationships:  Better than yesterday, and that's all I can ask for.

Spending:  Borrowed ten bucks from my Mom to get Billy cigarettes and a Poweraide because he was feeling sick too.

Family:  Managed not to fight with my Mother and it was half way pleasant.

Job:  Again, managed not to fight with my boss too much today except for my screw up of using a test card over the phone to test a terminal after I downloaded an application with them.  Said the Merchant should use their own credit card to test the terminal.  Again, made me kind of upset against Steve for neglecting to tell me that what he did was wrong, and not to do it. 

Responsibilities:  I told myself I was going to do laundry, and when Bill called I jumped and rushed right over.  So needless to say I didn't take care of my responsibilities today.

Eating Habits:  1 cup of coffee, and a piece of eggplant my Mom made a couple of days ago.

Overall Mood:  Aggravated, Unstable.

Specific Behavior:  Not being able to give Bill the space he needed, and continued not to realize I was making the situation worse by sending him text messages, and telling him to choose right then and there if we should break up, or stay together giving him an ultimatum, which obviously made Billy jump on the defensive side, as I secretly knew it would because I think psychologically I wanted him to have some kind of reaction, I wanted him to be sad like I was, maybe even cry, or fight to stay with me.  Tell me how much he loves me and wants it to work, and what changes he was going to make along with the changes that I was going to make. I wanted to feel wanted, and loved.  I wanted attention, I wanted not to sit in his room alone for five hours while he went outside and sat in his car for five hours with Josh.

Thought Patterns:  Billy picked a fight with me over something stupid again.  He is the insane one.  It makes me feel completely 100% aggravated.  I used sarcasm to the extreme as a defense measure again, psychologically when I am feeling threatened.  I felt the allegations made towards me yesterday were completely out of line.  I feel that Bill was emotionally unsympathetic to my feelings. 
     Again after the fight took place I continued to send text messages to him to get some sort of rise out of him since he aggravated me so much, in my head at the time this thought was justified.  I need to work on this factor as well.  I continued to send text messages about the ultimatum of...
     "Should I stay or should I go".  Quickly, after no rise, or reaction out of him, I threaten to break up with him, and packed my shit to make it look like I was leaving.  Again, I felt like I had no control over the situation, and was completely out of line on this one.  What gets me the most is when I feel like I have no control over a situation, it really gets me to the point where I can't control myself.  I quickly changed my mind after he agreed to the breakup and said I didn't want to break up. 
     We talked about it for a couple of hours, and he decided that we are on a sabbatical, and as of right now we have no status, if we are together or broken up. 

     Not the best course of actions today, and I will start working harder to resist sending the text messages.  Actually, next time, I will hide my cell phone, or have him take the cell phone, showing him I am making an attempt to stop the one thing that pisses him off the most.
 
     He just wants his space for now.  And I have to show him that I have to willpower to give him that space without being a needy attention hungry person who needs to be with him every minute of every day.  Today I am working towards not texting him/calling him at all.  However, if he decides to call, I will not be spiteful and not pick up the phone, but I will just not make the first call, and work on stopping to come off as desperate for attention. 
     I feel that I didn't give him the space that he wanted because I felt he didn't need the space because he was out of line with the fight that morning.  But how I handled it after the fight took place was the reason that he needed the space.  And me being completely oblivious to the world could not realize that until it was too late, and the damage was done.
    Again when he raised his voice to me, and told me I was lazy and I don't do anything to help him unless its convenient for me, and how I am selfish.  The list went on but after that, I just didn't want to listen anymore and I wanted to send the fire back to him, with sarcasm, contradictions, and just plain not thinking things through before I yelled back.  I felt that he had no sympathy that I felt like road kill, and I was hung over, and didn't want to move because I felt like I was going to puke.  He just didn't want to do the dishes and I felt that was selfish of him, but of course in my head is not always what comes out of my mouth, and how that could have been a very mature argument instead of 
     "Your an asshole," and continuously saying
     "Do you need any help?" With a nasty tone as he cleaned up after the party the night before.  Even his father told me to stop, which made me stop of course.  Again, I have to work on handling these disputes before they turn into fights.  That is what I want to accomplish this month. 
     I feel that his father had a lot to do with telling him that I wanted to break up, because I feel in the state of mind that I was in, and him telling me Billy wasn't right for me, that I immediately joined the bandwagon without thinking.  I was played, I feel.  In my manic state of mind, I don't have the best judgment in the world, and I feel he knew this, and continued to try and influence me to break it off.  Why I can't figure that part out yet.  But I feel that this is where the idea of breaking up originated from.
     Bill gave me the time to think things through, and obviously that didn't happen and I made the situation worse by spewing my mouth.

Goals:  Stop using sarcasm in an argument, it doesn't work, and doesn't make the situation better.  Stop refusing to give people space when they request it.  Go home when I am told to go home.  Staying makes the situation worse.  Learn how to not jump to defensive mode until the whole argument is made and I had time to think of the right words to say.  Stop being spiteful and say the first thing that comes to my head.  Stop trying to get a rise out of people when they piss me off.  Again, makes the situation worse.  NEVER give Billy an ultimatum, and tell him he has to decide right then and there, because it will never work the way I think it would work.  Makes Billy extremely pissed off, and again, makes the situation worse.  Stop coming off as a desperate attention hungry bitch, even though inside thats what I will always be, but I want to learn not to wear this particular emotion on my sleeve to maybe have a shred of dignity.  When I feel I am getting ignored, go home right away, don't sit in his house and build up aggravation and start a fight.  Stop sending text messages after a fight, nine times out of ten they are making the situation worse because I am not thinking about what I am sending.  Never talk about breaking up unless it is truly meant for, and I put a solid week into thinking about it and talking with people about the change before I decide to jump and make it and regret it later, again this comes off as desperate.  When I am given time to think things through, think things through!  And don't talk to his father and have him brain wash you.  I want to start researching different combinations of medications for my unique disorder which is a cross between type one and type two.  I am going to start going back to Toni Nokes even if it makes me broke.  I am going to call these creditors and try and work something out and stop dodging their calls.  Also, really start thinking about getting a second job at night to help me get out of this financial hole I am in.  I think that alone will alleviate a lot of my stress because of my spending problem.  I also want to work really hard with that this month, avoid stores all together.  I don't really want to think of going back to school until I have this money saved up to actually afford it.

Productivity:   Thought deeply about the changes that need to be changed this month and made it my personal goal to work on them and have these bad habits broken before the end of the month.

Sleep Patterns:  I felt like I didn't get enough sleep because I was hung over.

Relationships:   When I do talk to Bill's dad, I will have to work very hard not to cave into what he is saying and make the right decisions.  Bill and I have no status as of right now because of the events that unfolded. 

Spending:  I stayed in the house all day so I didn't have the opportunity to spend.

Family:  We didn't talk today, so N/A.

Job:  I was off so N/A.

Responsibilities:  Maybe doing the dishes this morning despite how I felt would have alliviated some stress and maybe avoided the fight this morning.

Eating Patterns:   Two slices of toast, butter and jelly.  And a small plate of Chinese food from the day before.
