WTF? Why do I always have so much trouble with anything involving my address? Millions of people move around frequently, they can't all be screwed out of things because of their address change. The sad part is that I bet this is all my fault. I can't remember registering to vote. I remember going to the Vote For Change website and starting to fill out some sort of forms. But I don't remember anything else and I never got any emails confirming what I did. I bet my dumbass ran into some kind of glitch where I hit a "process" button and nothing happened, so I just decided to try again later but ultimately forgot... kind of like the traffic court dates I missed at the end of last year and the fines I forgot to pay. What is my problem? Even so, just because I had trouble registering doesn't mean I shouldn't be allowed to vote. I bet there are thousands of people who aren't smart enough to register properly or on time... should they all be denied their rights as American citizens? It just doesn't seem fair.

Damn The Man!!!
I can't fricking believe this. After weeks of trying to verify my voters registration, going on every website and calling every number I could find... I just found out that I am in fact NOT registered to vote. For months I've been posting Myspace bulletins reminding people to register with links to help them do it and tips for voting day and now... ironically... as someone at the Election Board's office told me, I'm "S.O.L." I can't even vote on a provisional ballot because the vote will be thrown out once they verify that I am not an active registered voter. ARRRG! I am so pissed! The last time I voted, I went to the place I thought I was supposed to vote and they said I had to go to the next town over since I had moved. I wonder if that vote even counted! I bet that one got thrown out too. WTF? Why do I always have so much trouble with anything involving my address?

Doom and Gloom
I miss my happiness. It seems that since I became pregnant its been nothing but doom and gloom for me. I want to be happy, I really do! A lady at the pharmacy congratulated me on Friday and told me I don't look pregnant. That made me kind of cheerful. Of course, when I'm with BF I'm 180% better. I'm happy and I seem to feel less sick. I needed that so much over the weekend since I was sick ALL of last week. I felt like I'd never get healthy again. Then over the weekend when I was with BF my cold started to go away, I felt a little better, and I actually had a good time hanging out with friends. Now I'm back to work and I was already in the bathroom crying this morning, and now I'm almost crying again thinking about all of this. I can pretty much bet that if I could get back on my Meds I'd be back to normal. But it doesn't look like my stomach's getting any tougher so I don't think I'd be able to handle digesting them. I just don't know what to do in the meantime.

Mood Swings, Medication, & Hormones, ...Oh my!
I'm disgusted by my coworkers, can't stand my job or the company anymore, oversensitive to friends comments about anything... I spaz out when I have to think about making plans for traveling during the holidays. I'm a complete mess! Yesterday I posted a Myspace Blog about how much I hate my job and such--pretty much just venting--and people commented back as if they were offended by my negativity... "At least you have a steady job." ..which in turn made me even more pissed off and want to be like, "You just don't get it!" I'm not ready to tell people about my pregnancy yet, but in the meantime my whole personality is changing and from the outside it must seem like I'm a horrible person. I wish I could just say to everyone, "Look people, I'M PREGNANT! So, not only am I hormonal... But the anti-depressants I've been dependant on for anxiety and depression since I was 18 years old...I can't take them! Despite my doctors opinion that they won't hurt the baby if I stay on them but lower my dose, I can't take them because my stomach refuses to digest any type of medication or even vitamins without puking it back up. So, I'm sorry if I'm a little irrational. I'm sorry if I am way more negative than I used to be. I'm sorry if I come off as a big whiny baby who can't just suck it up and live life like the rest of the working class... but being off this medication for the first time in 10 years, and then dealing with extra hormones on top of it, is really having an effect on me. When I am in the environment that is my workplace, I am completely miserable!"
