Ah, you sound like me. I dance the zero-dollar dance at least once a month, it seems, and while it’s probably going to give me an ulcer someday, it’s what I know. I’d love to climb out of this particular comfort zone…

I also enjoy being single. It’s easier.

Fears. yes. Most of those, and some others.

I love GLEE! Even though I thought the finale would be a sing off between New Directions and Vocal Adrenaline, I knew Quinn would suddenly break her water.
I also deal with layers one and two. I use my debit card until, whoops! Declined. I really liked the turn ‘bullshit dating.’ Awesome.
Three…hmm…I haven’t exactly been fearlful. Which is why I’ve broken both legs at the same time.
It involved a swing, a tree, and a cliff.
I digress, but just wanted to mention that late at night, when it’s dark, I turn on an episode of GLEE! and fall asleep to the sweet sweet melodies.

I am just like you. My bank balance gets to close to 0 too often and I am really starting to like being single and independent. I was starting to freak out that I am in my mid-30s and single but I can go anywhere, do anything, anytime….

Though the big fear I have is that I will get sick like my mother and not have anyone to take care of me.

I am afraid of all of these things…AND MORE! Whee! I just think it’s awesome that you’re making shit work on your own terms, really. It’s awesome.

I am exactly the same when it comes to my bank balance. I am so uncomfortable with the fact that it is pay day on Tuesday, yet I still have EIGHTY DOLLARS. What did I forget to pay??? Logically, I know that this is due to the fact that I’m finally making a living wage in this g-d expensive city, but it still puts me on edge.

“Fear that I’ll end up broke and alone because I did the wrong thing.” Uh yes, I hear you loud and clear. Every time I’m floundering and wringing my hands instead of making a decision, I think about what a good friend once yelled at me while I was in the midst of such a fit: “INDECISION KILLS!” Not sure what it means, even now, but I’ll be damned if it didn’t get me moving.
