Mine has been great so far. I've been busy enough at school to keep me from being bored, but not busy enough to not have time to go out. A happy medium.

Also, everyday puts me closer to the end of the semester, so that helps increase the happiness factor.

the past month has been very hard and difficult for me. I've spent most of it crying, in turmoil, identifying and facing my biggest fears, searching introspectively, deconstructing all my thoughts, actions, and motivators, looking at my life from childhood to present looking for significant and traumatic events...

basically, it's sucked, but I know that it only gets better from here.

My month has been very busy, but so far very good. It looks to finish out on perhaps some down notes, but I don't think even that can ruin the rest of it.

Well, I found out I'm not diabetic. Broke up with my girlfriend which is a blessing for me. Still friends with said girlfriend, which is a blessinger for me. It's Spring Break. I get a new phone on Friday. I'm getting my anxiety and binge eating under control again.

Overall, I think it will be a good month.

It's been a great month. I got a second job, got recommended by my first boss for another job within the same company that is DEFINITELY a HUGE promotion, and basically have been on Cloud 9. Sure, money's been tight, but I'm loved and that's all that matters.

I've been having a totally terrible month. Both at work as well as domestically. I got a verbal warning at work for negligence (I fucked up, and I deserved it). My relationship (until this morning) was in danger of coming to a painful end, but things are starting to look up.

Hopefully the latter part of this month will prove itself to be kinder.

Work - we're still technically down for the month in revenue, but that should change before the books close. April looks like a 25% bump upwards.

Home - Poppie diapers at 2:30 am does not equal a happy daddy. Seeing legitimate smiles for the first time trumps that, though.

My month has been tough, but that's work related. The big state tests for the students put a lot of pressure on all of us. I think that adds to a lot of stress. On the personal front, it's been good when I can forget about work.

I think a lot of people start getting sick of the cold at this point. I know that makes me a grump. I'm ready for spring.

March has been better than Dec, Jan, and Feb. Not to say those months were good at all, but March is continuing the upward wend from Dec/Jan's all-time low. By the end of March I will have: had good company; a grand party; taken my long belly dance weekend convention with the girls, and I'm sure the month will be even better rated than it is now.

Pretty good month for me. I'm on spring break, I got all my applications for my semester in Ireland turned in, and I met a woman who isn't an addict, is highly educated, and loves to cuddle as much as I do. As I generally attract women who are druggies, dropouts, or just generally crazy, that's a good thing.

My month has been divided between "fuckinamazin" and hell. I proposed! I'm engaged, and it feels amazing.
But the amount of work I'm doing and the way that people are treating me sometimes is ruining that natural high...So I guess my month is bleh.

Decent so far. I got increased responsibilities at work, and although it won't mean more money at least I know I'm appreciated. I also landed the position of Student Council Representative and that's going to be pretty exciting I think. There's a Linguistics test coming up next week and I want vengeance for the crappy Linguistics test I did last semester, so I'm chomping at the bit! Whee!

Just when I feel that things are getting better, I slide back down. Luckily, this month's slide was not terribly far. On the plus side, I am starting to feel closer to my husband again and my children are happy and healthy. We are struggling financially, but who isn't?

Obviously, I have really fallen down on the job.

A mix of good and bad for me. Professionally, I just got hired on a permanent basis (worked through a contractor for 7 months). They promoted me to Project Professional and gave me a 5% raise so it's great at work.

Personally, it's been up and down. My wife and I have had great times and very tense times. Our daughter is 17 months old and she's transitioning from being a baby to a toddler. So that is peaks and valleys as well. She's old enough to (usually) know what she wants but too young to always tell me. Even if she can tell me what she wants it isn't always what I want to let her have it so it can frustrate her. The difficult times are usually communication-related.

I've had a FANFUCKINGTASTIC month:

Ratbastid and I have had great sex lately (except when I've had my period, but I rediscovered the joy of giving blowjobs) and have a supah fun trip to San Diego planned with and paid for by his parents.

I got fucked by my girlfriend (wearing a harness) for the first time. Teeheheeeheeee. And for the most part our relationship has been sailing.

I won 3rd place in a swing dance competition last night and enjoyed the hell out of myself so much that I wouldn't have cared if I won or not. I danced with such good dancers and just had a blast.

I've gotten 2 new organizing jobs.

I'm almost done with my old job - another 3-4 weeks and the absent-minded academics are someone else's problem!

I have a plan for getting out of debt and so far I have been sticking to it.

I have a great house, great pets, great friends and family, ratbastid and I are soon going to get to be sorta-co-parents without having to go through pregnancy (girlfriend and husband are trying), I'm doing something I really enjoy with my life.

A week ago I felt like I couldn't do anything right, but I used some of the cognitive "tricks" I've learned in therapy and other places and now I'm on top of the world and life is good.

After January and February, I deserved this month.

My ex and I sorted out a multitude of thing from the previous few months... and last two years. He moved back in after over a year without living together. I have a loving relationship with space for the first time in forever. Literally. And a fantastic 2006 Suzuki GSXR living in my carport that I get to ogle and drool over when I get home.

I've had 3 deaths at work already this month, but they were all peaceful and non-traumatic, for the most part. As non-traumatic as they could have been. The most amazing thing at work, though, is that with all of the bureaucratic bullshit of the past few years, I've often drug myself to work and not felt enthusiastic in the slightest. And when I began to stand up for myself, I butted heads with two of the higher-ups with dramatic results in my personnel file. However, two weeks ago, on higher-up turned in her resignation because it was too stressful. She'd been with us a little over a year. The other aforementioned higher-up, who has been with us four years, turned in her resignation on Friday. My life will dramatically improve on May 1, just being able to get up knowing that I have a chance to prove myself without fighting micromanagement at every single step.

And, today I found fresh strawberries for 99 cents a quart and a kiss when I walked in the door.
