My lease isn’t up until Oct 5th. Arguing with myself over waiting or getting it now. Who thinks immediate gratification will win?

As a good Catholic girl, don't you think you might have to do some penance or something if you go with the immediate gratification route?

That said, my vote is definitely for immediate gratification. But I'm not a very good Baptist. Kind of a flawed individual all the way around. Might be why I'm leaning that way.

Aren't there some starving kids in another country you could send it to?

Bless me Father, for I have sinned. That ought to cover it. Now I'm going to Hell. My father just rolled over. He would not be happy that I used a prayer as a joke.

I'll see if they will cover one or both of the remaining payments. Not that it makes a difference, I'll probably do it anyway. I'd like to get it and have some fun before I need to put on my winter wheels.

I mean it's already there, would be a shame for it to just sit at the dealership.

There's no way I will let it sit until October. But I keep inching up. My last lease was up the end of December and I took delivery beginning of October.

Confession time:

I started a new job in June. On paper it is much better than the other job, but the environment makes me hate it.

I feel that too. I'm 3 weeks into a new job with CarMax product design (shhhh don't tell anyone) and the onboarding here has been rough. I came from an org where I knew everyone, how everything worked and honestly wasn't too bad.

I kinda topped out there so I made a move for a pretty solid raise and room for growth, but damn, new jobs are hard.

I'm not sure these new purple socks with poodles are actually mine, but I'm claiming them as a bday present if anyone questions me.

Does the pain ever go away? I dream of him constantly. It’s weird though. Sometimes it’s comforting and other times, it’s so upsetting.
Im sorry.

No, not really, what the time will do is the thought about it will go bit easier bit-by-bit. And at a point in the future it wouldnt hurt as it actually do.

Some are meant for SLT audience, some at a slightly lower level. Work life balance doesn’t exist, not paid nearly enough for this level of work and even if paid more, likely don’t find the environment conducive to career satisfaction and growth.

Just broke up with my girlfriend and helped her move out about 30 min ago. That was supremely shitty. Also the only relationship i've had that has ended somewhat amicable where we gave each other a big hug after finishing the last trip and that was it.

Thanks man, yeah there's just no way around it sucking. I knew it wasn't the right relationship for me even though there was nothing really wrong with it. I just didn't want to spend another year or two together and letting the slow decline happen.
