You know what helps?

Ok, so since the unfortunate events of yesterday, I have had a chance to give things a think... Here's what I have come up with:

1.) Yesterday when it was slow, (before I knew how the day would end) I took my lunch around 2:00 PM. And during that time I called my mom. During the conversation with my mom I said, "God, it's so slow today, I just hope they send me home early." Looking back on that statement, I guess I should've been more specific. (After it all went down, the first words I said to my mom were literally, "Well that definitely didn't go down as I'd previously planned." And then I had to explain... Which sucked.)

2.) I now regret not mentioning the broker's porn to the boss... That could've easily gotten me another month's pay.

3.) I've been down on myself since yesterday afternoon.

4.) I've heard many times that to keep your mind off of things when you're down, just stay busy... But that's hard to do when you find yourself out of a job.

5.) In an effort to "stay busy" since the unfortunate events of Cinco de Mayo, I cleaned my bathroom while drinking lots of wine (And I don't think it's been quite so spotless since I moved in!), I slept an excessive amount, and then I went to sling flowers for 10 hours... Turns out that working is a good way to take your mind off of being jobless. (Funny how that works, isn't it?)

6.) I have a theory that drinking with sympathetic friends also helps... I plan on conducting a very scientific study of that theory this evening. I'll get back to you with the results tomorrow!
