Give and Take

Good: My mom has offered to help me out with rent while I'm in between roommates this summer.

Bad: She's planning on coming to visit me for an entire week and will stay here rather than a hotel.


Good: My super crazy client who yelled at me until I cried was offically kicked off the program today.

Bad: I just enrolled another equally crazy parent onto the program.


Good: For some reason, a coworker brought a huge box of Otter Pops to share, which allowed me to reminisce about childhood summers with a popsicle whose flavor can only be accurately described as "blue".

Bad: "Blue" tasted a lot better when I was a kid.


Good: Every Sunday night I get to look forward to going to my favorite bar and watching their weekly film fest that includes such favorites as "Them Damn Zombies" and "Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter." And also, all the cute nerd boys who also enjoy such movies.

Bad: Out of the entire bar, the only guy who paid any attention to me was the one who was dressed like Freddy Kruger (minus the scary claws), and droned on and on about his freelance rent-a-cop business and how he always carries a non-lethal weapon around "just in case something happens".


Good: I finally got a good night's sleep, thanks to a lovely little sleeping pill.

Bad: I took the pill in the midst of frustration at two in the morning, forgetting that it lasts a full eight hours, leaving me a little, well, tipsy through most of my morning at work.


Good: Being a little tipsy at work this morning.

Bad:...Actually, that wasn't too bad.
