Change, change, change

I want to get up out of my skin
Tell you what
If I can shake it
I'ma make this
Something worth dreaming of.

SPEAKING OF WHICH. Had never seen the video for it before, until today (well, yarsilay at this point), and as the Gagster would say, I LOVE IT! I mean, come on! Look at those fucking strawberries! Why didn't I think of that?! I smell a photoshoot coming on...
In other news, I have officially decided to re-do my wardrobe. Where I'm actually going to find enough money to do this, I have no idea. Here's the breakdown of my weekly paycheck:

$275 a week of take-home.-$100 into my savings. -$50 that I must save to pay to ma mere the $200 a month. -$60 that goes into my secret cashbox where I'm collecting cash to eventually dump in one big chunk into my checking account. Which leaves me with $65 a week, which I somehow blow through like it's nothing. No idea where it all goes. Although, I suppose my cash dump is going to accrue rather quickly and I will eventually gather enough cash-ola to have a mini-shopping spree. But still, that plan is somehow failing because I am having these HIGHLY frequent unexpected expenses, aka purchasing Lady Gaga tickets for 100 bucks when I thought it would cost $60, having to fork out an extra $50 for textbooks that I was not expecting to have to pay out, etc.

I need more income. I can't do that Captcha whatever its called that MissCatroux does. I suppose I could (read: I SUPPOSABLY could do it), but don't really feel like looking into it. Too much work. Luckily, I WILL be getting a contract raise soon - some time next week, I believe - but it's certainly not going to provide me with an extra $100 a week. Although, it should give me about an extra 20 bucks or so, which certainly can't hurt.

In any event, unlike my blogging sistren - my blistren - I will not be posting pictures of outfitz. Rather, I will be slowly culling varying pieces of attire. My hope is to have at least a week's worth of new ensembles ripe and ready for presentation by the time Gaga's Performance Art Show arrives. Which, could probably happen. In fact, I'm kind of re-evaluating and re-adjusting my entire life in the hope of becoming more GLAMOROUS.

A few key points to touch on with regard to this:

(1) I'm needing to ACCESSORIZE more (no, I will not be carrying a purse aka a European Carry-All). If you have any suggestions, please alert me! I need all the help I can get with this. And I REFUSE to wear jewelry. I'll just carry a tommygun around.

(2) I'm planning on dropping at LEAST a good fifteen pounds within the next two months. How I'm going to do it, I don't know. Obviously I cannot work a gym membership into my shit budget that is mentioned above.

(3) I'm going to attempt to start eating healthier. I've realized that a great snack is sugarsnap peas with a lil' bit of ranch dressing. Just a wee bit. You can eat an ENTIRE BAG of sugarsnaps (its like wayyyy bigger than just a snack size, but still fairly reasonable)...just 100 calories. No fat, only 7g of carbs. Vitamins A and C. And they taste FUCKING delicious! You can't lose. As opposed to 100Cal MiniMuffins, where its like 100 calories PER MUFFIN.

Thats basically it so far. Perhaps I should actually come up with a 12-Step Single Ladies Dance Program.

Then I will be able to put cha hands UP! high and flaunt all my super-hot-bod-ness with my mad dope new clothes. We will see.
P.S. I just LOVE how Blogger WILL NOT EVER format a post correctly.

  2. What's with people and snap peas? Jackie and JJ last semester were all over that shit. As for accessories, I have no idea what you could do, but the gun idea is a good one. Maybe be like the crusties and wear bullet belts.
