i try so hard to have a gripe, but still can't find one.

My gripe of the day is superficial but its really starting to get to me. All I see on Facebook are all these people younger than me getting engaged and married and having kids....WTFFFFF. How do they have enough money to do this? I CANT EVEN FIND A JOB THAT WILL GIVE ME BENEFITS MUCH LESS ENOUGH MONEY TO GET MARRIED!!!!!! Every one seems to be moving on with their lives and I'm still stuck getting paid by the hour! I swear to goddess, I saw a girl who was a freshman in high school when I was a senior, who is married and having a baby. I'm twenty four!!! I should at least have a salaried job with benefits so i can go see the f*cking dentist without having to worry if i can afford to eat for a month afterwards. I feel like I'm losing the game of life right now.

Don't stress, Maureen. Doing things early doesn't always mean doing things right. There's a lot of stuff people do at a young age that they absolutely regret later on. Take your time and do it the way that will make you happy in the long run.

Amen, if i could take back my first marriage i know i would no matter how much "growth" it provided me

I don't know why right now, but I "have depression" so it happens from time to time. I suspect stress and not enough sleep finally caught up to me so I've been feeling really low the past few days. Not much I can do but keep trying to feed myself properly and wait for it to pass. Wish I had the motivation to make a steak!

It's steak time, your homework is to go out and buy a steak, tenderize it, then make it tonight. I dare you XD.

Yup, 22 and maried here (almost 23) with a kid at home (and another one on the way.)

Don't kid yourself, I'm paying for the mistake XD.

edit: oops, sorry for the double post.

GOTD: STOP PROCREATING!!! (not you, josh, just bad timing that it's under yours)

Overheard at work:
Her: They're thinking about having a tax if your house is too big- you get taxed on the unused rooms.
Him: Then I should get a credit! Doubling and tripling up my kids!
Her: How many kids do you have now?
Him: Number 7 is on the way.

FFS people- "be fruitful and multiply" no longer applies! Yes, I'm making an assumption, but given where I live- it's not unwarrented. I'm one of four- which is a bigger than "necessary" for a family. However, we were also all born in the 80s- prior to the overpopulation thing being QUITE so obvious. But seven? SEVEN? That is NOT necessary. Can we give tax credits for the first two and tax the rest? Once you've replaced yourselves- it's on your dime . . .

I guess it just sucks that other people seem to have stable enough lives to do that kind of stuff and I'm still struggling to make ends meet. I want to be stable and happy and not have to worry if that interest payment is going to leave me enough money to pay for gas to get to my shitty job. I haven't been to the dentist in almost eight years. I can only get insurance coverage if I'm bleeding or dying, and my mother still pays that. I'm living with my boyfriends parents. I just want what I thought would happen after college, like a salaried job and a stable work environment. It sucks to have a plan of what would happen after you got out of school, and then have it burst in your face like a stinky pie at a crappy carnival.

Just scalded the shit out of my tongue! Had chicken and tomatoes cooking in the crockpot all day and went to taste the broth and didn't wait quite long enough. Ow.
