Found this written on the palm of my hand when I awoke this afternoon:

"I'm still the same person,
and yet I've come so far."

I'm also still a lazy, procrastinating bitch who's content in being lazy as long as I'm not broke.

Long history of working a lot, saving up money (though spending much on other people), getting fed up with work drama and having no time for myself, then taking a large chunk of time off and enjoying lazyness. Keeps my from getting burned out and leaving the career I'm still paying off student loans for.

Then the money runs out and it's time to go bust my ass again for a few months until I build up another nest egg.

Right now I'm in the uncomfortable transition stage when the money runs out and I have to prepare myself to start the cycle all over again.

I know I've reached it 'cause I want to go out to the bar tonight and watch the basketball playoffs but I'm down to minimal funds and no scheduled income on the horizon.

Gonna have to get my shit together tomorrow, do the neccessary phone calls and paper work, prepare myself mentally and get myself on next week's schedule. That will get me some immediate income until I can get on the list for a Southern Connecticut travel job which will hopefully get me a free, furnished apartment in either Brooklyn or Manhattan.

This is the worst stage of the cycle, by the way, and the most self-indulgent.
