Besides being rather accurate, lol, I was watching the video on youtube (yes, again) and caught yet another geek dig; the 2 second reference to Star Wars Kid.  I finally saw that for the first time last month, and now that I have, my eye snagged on seeing it parodied in W & N.

Anyway, I worked three nights in a row, which isn't the norm, lol, and it was a lot harder than I'd have thought.  and then I realized; I take care of my kids during the day, so figure in 7-9 hrs there, then 4-6 of walking/bending/washing/etc of being a deli grrl.  So if I'm having a 'lazy' day, on days I go into the grocery store I can end up at midnight with a minimum of 11 hours of work during the day.  Tuesday I worked 11 hrs, wednesday I did 14, and thursday I did 13.  Only getting paid for the deli work, of course.  Life was much easier as a SAHM, sigh.

I decided to spurge, and spent half my pay cheque.  The other half will go towards bills, so that's okay.  Next pay cheque I won't spend any of it on myself, so I'm not too concerned.  I probably won't again till after the new year, since I now have 3 pairs of work pants, and soon I'll be getting a second work shirt (through the store).  woohoo!  Anyway, in addition to my third pair of work pants, I also bought a cute red top and my first pair jeans in a decade.  Wow.  

As I mentioned to mightyjalapeno, my separation has led to one good thing, in some weird twisted sort of way.  I have a lot more self confidence and I love and respect myself a hell of a lot more.  I didn't want to wear jeans cuz I was fat; now I simply don't care, so long as the jeans look good and I feel good in them (which I do!).
