How I did it
How to learn to walk in high heels
It took me
10 years
It made me
Meh.

How I did it: Finding a comfortable pair is key. Chunky heels provide greater stability. Boots are are great at supporting your ankles while you learn.I decided that I'd finally "made it" once I managed to walk on slippery Boston sidewalks in 2 inch heels. It's enough to make me satisfied. Read how I did it…

Lame. 6 months ago

Okay, so my fabulous job working for my dad isn’t nearly as fabulous as I thought it would be. I guess I should have realized that my abusive father that treats me like a child would do the same damn thing once I got into the office.

Sorry, but my job description does not say that I have to be my father’s punching bag. I am not getting paid nearly enough to deal with this.

I’m applying to new jobs and will hopefully get out of this hellhole shortly.

Now saving for retirement 9 months ago

I’m making enough to live, have fun and save. I’m going to open a Roth IRA in a couple of months (because my company won’t give me a 401K until I’ve worked here for a year).

Oddly enough, working with my father. 9 months ago

Okay, so it’s not going to be a long-term career, but I’m very happy working as a business development representative for my dad. We’re an office of two and I have a good amount of downtime. My commute isn’t joy-inducing by any means, but this goal wasn’t “find a tolerable commute.”
