Full disclaimer: I am a little bit drunk right now.

I am a little bit drunk, because of my work. See, I'm a contractor, and we're changing agencies or whatever, so to make a long story short, this (at this moment in time) results in my payrate being reduced by $1.56 a hour.

This is not okay. It doesn't look like much but you see, I am BARELY scraping by on my current salary. I can't deal, I cannot deal at all. I have student fucking loans and it sucks hardcore.

Fuck my job. Fuck THE WORLD.

I still have a glass of wine, and I managed to create the most delicious pasta sauce know to mankind. That's a plus, right?

Seriously, though.

Fuck. Everything.

And this icon is so apropos. No wonder it's my very favorite childrens book.

ETA "American Horror Story:" infinitely MORE FUCKED UP when you are drunk

And "Rattlesnake Republic" was greenlit solely to light my nightmares

It doesn't look like a lot, but it adds up. Believe me, I understand. That sucks, bb. I'm sorry. :(

I've never made pasta sauce. Care to share the recipe?

Thank you, it's been...one hell of a day.

I sort of just randomly throw stuff in! A can of tomato sauce, a couple cans of diced tomatoes, some tomato paste; about 1/2 an onion sauteed with some garlic; a bit of fresh basil; 1/2 lb of lean ground beef browned with olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and worchestershire sauce; and a splash of red wine once it's beem simmering awhile. Rotini pasta's my favorite as it picks up the sauce well.

Mm, that sounds good. I was going to make pasta this weekend. I'd bought a jar of pre-made sauce, but maybe I'll invent my own. I'm inspired. :)

I had not seen it, thank you for the tip! Yeah, I'm glad to have the conference coming up (and extremely lucky given the location this year), it'll help me get through the holidays for sure.

I'm sorry! That sucks.

Thanks. Things are still up in the air, but hopefully we'll have real answers soon.

Oh, man, that is really sucky. I wish you lots of success in finding something permanent that pays better.
