4:05pm Laid off
4:16pm Crying in the street outside work waiting to be picked up because boyfriend and I car pooled to work together for the first time.
5:15pm Signed up for unemployment.
6:30pm Boyfriend makes me eat guacamole he got pulled over to get for me to make me stop crying.
6:57pm Thought I stopped crying, but was just a wine high.
7:00pm Got angry about a girl I forgot I was "friends" with on Facebook. Got so loud, I made myself poop.
8:39pm Checked horoscope to see if it would tell me I was getting laid off. No warnings, although suspicious mention of "freelance" projects.
8:53pm Checked boyfriends horoscope. Said he was having best year ever and has never been so lucky. Cry some more about unfortunate life and birthdate.
9:07pm Thought Project Runway was on. New episode isn't until 10pm. Still drinking.
9:11pm Watching old episode of Biggest Loser I fell asleep during in its initial air.
5:00pm--present Make constant comments about how I can neither do nor aford things because I no longer have a job. Also, things I can do: watch The View, watch Oprah, exercise, manage the dogs, clean the house, not take boyfriends 2 week old clothes out of the laundry.
9:15pm Boyfriend is shining blind-inducing flashlight INTO HIS EYES. His horoscope is gifting without consideration for common sense.
9:16pm Not impressed with fat people's ability to run for 5 minutes.Ok. Mildly impressed.
9:18pm This is fun.
9:18pm Boyfriend adds to log, makes himself giggle.
9:20pm Boyfriend feeds me the good bits out of the ice cream. I remind myself I am dating the right man.
9:23pm Getting more wine.
9:27pm Boyfriend tried to ferventally fan away fart. I now have a Smirnoff Ice - Green Apple... Better than the
wine!
9:33pm Realize boyfriend is the one putting my razor face down instead of face up on the ledge in the shower. He has been using it to shave the hairs off his hands. (side note: 3rd man card loss)

After this, I finished my Smirnoff and fell asleep on the couch, but woke up to see the models walk the runway.
