New me!

Yesterday I drove to Douglas to see my favorite hair stylist! She asked me what kind of style I was going for so I showed her a couple of pictures and told her to do whatever because I was having major attitude. She just laughed and said, "Just today? Isn't that always?" Okay, so she's right...I usually have attitude, but yesterday it was MAJOR attitude. I had the "my ex is a lying piece of shit and he and his two-timing, selfish, lying, married girlfriend can kiss my f*%$ing ass" attitude. Yeah, yeah, I still let him get to me. What can I say? That's what happens when you fall head-over-heels in love and then get your heart broken into a million pieces. So my goal is to prove to myself (and him, but mostly me) that I am way better off without him.

I'm going to work hard at turning myself into a new person. Starting with a new sassy haircut (I think this is the shortest my hair has been since I was little). Up next is training for a Triathlon. I know I want to do one next summer and I just got a treadmill so I'm going to start working hard at getting myself in shape. Something else that might be new is a job. I'm sending in an application for a job and I'm hoping I get it. So...new do, working on a new body, applying for a new job...hopefully I'll gain a whole new attitude from all this!
