You know something? I'm fucking awesome. There's been so much shit that's happened to me this year, and yet I'm still standing with my head held high.

Went through a heartbreaking divorce that I didn't actually want, but felt I needed time alone to think. Not even a week after we move apart, she jumps on a new guy and tells me she's over our marriage. I left behind my home and friends in Oregon, moved to Ohio, then ended up getting into a fight with my roommate which led to me moving to Virginia. All of my belongings have been reduced to what fits in my car. I've got $2k in credit card debt, student loans, and car payments, so I don't have much left over.

But you know what? I've worked my ass off to keep my head above water, and now I've scored a full-time position as an automotive express technician. I've adjusted to single life, and I have people who would say yes if I asked them out. I've still got my dog, food in our stomachs, and a roof over our heads. I have friends to hang out with when I have free time. I have a local bowling furmeet when I can get the time off work.

I threw everything away and started a new life for myself on the other end of the country, and I'm doing pretty fucking good.
