new clothes, new necklace – new me!

Hey Kiddies!

So, we all know I have a bit of an anxiety problem. And when I say ‘bit’ I mean it is crippling.

With this new job and such, I’ve been extra nervous because I want everyone to like me and everyone to think I’m neat and pretty and smart and pretty and funny and gorgeous.

Because of this, I have gone out and purchased many an item. Sweaters, cardigans, shoes (oh, the shoes) and pantaloons. Cute things, I should add. Some say I will be regretting my purchases in a few months when all I have to eat are olives and mustard. But I don’t care. Because I will be the cute new girl. I must be.

Also, I have been slightly nervous about running into the people who don’t like me from old job — so I hide. Like, today, I saw a girl from old job in the food court, and I dove behind an old man and nearly knocked over a giant display for smoothies.

She probably didn’t see me at all.

But, whatever, I avoided conflict. That’s my main goal these days.

You know what DOESN’T make me anxious?! Trips!

Boyfriend and I went to the beach to celebrate our anniversary. We spent all of Sunday at the Boardwalk Arcade — we saved up 597 tickets to get this:

Yes, friends, that is a light up blinking dolphin necklace. Ours has a hard plastic piece that goes around your neck and also lights up — but I couldn’t find a good picture! Boyfriend has necklace custody today and so I couldn’t take one with le phone.

I played a LOT of “Deal or No Deal” and “Wheel of Fortune” arcade games for that.

Sidenote: there are a LOT of light-up dolphin necklace pics on the internets!

Anyway – I am at the office, now that I’m done with my break I must go tend to the work, and save the youth.

<3 M
