This last week has included... impromptu game night was fun (and we were able to indoctrinate yet another person into the silly depravity that is the game Loaded Questions... poor Dallan *grin*).  Had a another roleplaying night last night.  Red Cross volunteering Saturday morning/early afternoon.  Read Harry Potter over the weekend (good read even if a bit formulaic... it is supposed to be a children's book.  Didn't get depressed or sad at the end like so many others that I've read from, or heard about, cause I have some theories about what will be revealed in the next book.  But won't bore you with that.  But another wait until the next book comes out... probably a good thing... have to save money.)

I'm completely stressed right now... ALL my fault too.  I played ostrich WAY too long with my finances.  *hangs head*  I WILL learn from this mistake.  I will find a way out, and never let it happen again!  But, until I recover... I will not be extending invitations out, and any get-togethers at my house will be 'bring your own food and drink'.  Probably a good thing from both the financial and diet ways.  Course, I have said that before... yet my inner hostess feels obligated, so I will train myself to do what I feel is rude... and not provide.  *Shrug*  Well, I've got plenty of coffee and water... I can provide those.  So... if I seem out of communication... it's probably that I don't like to invite people somewhere unless I've got everything arranged to 1) pay their way, or 2) provide more than enough food and drink, etc.  I even know it's not really expected from most of my friends... but it is a very deeply ingrained thing for me.  Oh, yea... the strict version of the protein diet is COMPLETELY out too... WAY too expensive.

Course, my problems don't compare to many others... to whom I wish much luck... I just needed to vent a bit.  Luckily everything else my life is going well!
