Adventures in Reverse Psychology

....i know that we are all tired of the depressive blog posts; so, today i'm going to try a new approach.

Great news guys! I realized today that my life is in utter shambles! :-)

In addition to the normal fun, I awoke to find that I had negative 16 dollars in my bank account, which is great because I'm always looking for real world examples of negative numbers to show my children. I imagined what they might ask. "How do negative numbers occur?"
"Well kids - my impromptu emergency room visit / hospital stay completely wiped out my savings and expendable cash. No problem though - I've already paid my bills, so I should be fine for the month....but surprise, surprise....I FORGOT that I had just enrolled in automatic bill pay for my PREVIOUS stint in the hospital and that stupid loan I had to take out last year....which means overdraft. YAY NEGATIVE NUMBERS!"

No worries. I've already given in to the idea that I might not really be a big girl....and walking everywhere and not eating until the 30th might ease the transition into skinny ho. Woo hoo! And no one really wanted to start taking Depakote again anyway. Who needs it? Not I!

And it gets better!

That brother of mine, who I'm not all that close too, has officially removed me from his life. Apparently, I don't even have to burden myself with his new phone number! How great is that? It's perfect! I'll have more space on my memory card to download a song on, as soon as I fundraise for $1.

Who knew that things could be this amazing?
I am...overwhelmingly excited about what the next few days might bring!

Peace Be
