The things that have gotten me through this annoying week:
1) Chocolate.
2) Air-conditioning.
3) FB friends.
4) A husband who occasionally makes good suggestions.
5) The hope that next week will be better.
6) More chocolate.
7) Much more chocolate. (I should own stock in a chocolate company ... except I'd eat all my dividends.)

I hope next week is a better week for you! Chocolate definitely helps get me through life's less delightful moments too. ;)
Chocolate is certainly one of the more important parts of life. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool... I just don't trust people who say they don't like chocolate.
Ahhh, chocolate. Always there for you when you need it. Have a good weekend! :)
Did someone say "chocolate"? I'm glad you've had enough to get you through, Lexa.

Hmm, let me guess: you like chocolate? ;)
Sorry to hear this past week has been so annoying for you. Crossing my fingers that next week will be better!
Hope next week is better for you! And here, have more chocolate. It's from my private Belgian stash ...
I hope next week is better for you, Lexa. Save some chocolates for me.
All the dividends?
Big believer in AC - thank God someone invented it.
Have a better weekend, Lexa.
I gave you a shout out on my blog.
Thumbs down to poop weeks, thumbs up to a positive attitude that says, "Sunshine always follows rain and there is no joy without pain!" Hugs. X
(and gorgeous mountain sized chocolates!)

Even the worst days can be a little bit better if you have some choc :) All the best, hope next week will be better!
LOL. I'm totally with you on the chocolate.
Our electricity went out last night and so our air was kaput for a bit. Soooo grateful when it came back on, so I second 2. and 1. Oh, and 6. & 7. =)
Yum! Chocolate has been helping me through this week too :)
lol @ a husband who occasionally makes good suggestions. I celebrate this too, well my own husband that is ;)
BUT at the top of my list is most definitely chocolate too... that's the good stuff!
Chocolate! Yes, chocolate! I could use a bit of chocolate right about now. It sounds positively delicious. Sorry you had an annoying week.
I still have not gotten my chocolate craving satisfied. I am glad youhad plenty. Have a good weekend! :)
Great list. Especially numbers 2 and 4. I couldn't manage this writing life without them.
Wonderful list, especially chocolate and air conditioning!
Hooray for air conditioning!
And chocolate :)
Happy Weekend!
Chocolate and men...the perfect combination.
Chocolate and air-conditioning. Yep, that'll help take the edge off a crappy week. I hope your weekend is better, though!
Chocolate always helps:) I'm there alongside you. I really hope your next week gets better.
I love this post, love chocolate and love your eyeball :) I am a new follower :)

Chocolate good, husband with good suggestions even better... sometimes. On other occasions it's the other way around :-)
Lexa, sounds like you are one of those chocoholics!
Hope you have a better week next week!

I love chocolate too! It helped me get through my week too. Loved your list of things that helped you get through the week! :)

Hey Lexa,
And not only chocolate, your adoring 'Farcebook' friends, a husband who has been known to make good suggestions, to really help you get over an annoying week, you get a comment from me, yes me, shy, humble and modest me who has suddenly realised that he is doing a run-on sentence which if it keeps going and starts missing commas you will find that you have to eventually take a breath. And with that, I'm going to have some real chocolate, as in British chocolate! Yay!
Gary :)
Awwwww I hope you get lots more chocolate (and great suggestions! LOL!) this fine weekend!!!
Take care

Chocolate and air con! Sounds great. I hope next week is better and has chocolate in it! :)
Been a tough week, huh? *hands over more chocolate*
Chocolate is gooooooooood. I hope next week is better for you and if not, well, there's always more chocolate.
At least there's always chocolate!
Great suggestion! Hope you had heaps of chocolate for your birthday as well!
Happy Birthday!
Sounds like a tough week. Hope the next one is a lot better.
Without hope it is impossible to wake up in the morning. Hope is what keeps me going. Chocolate helps too!
oh, I think I'm helpless being allergic to chocolate which gives poor little moi pimples :(
Without hope, nothing else matters ... well except for chocolate, friends, and family. But where there's chocolate, friends and family, there's always hope.
Indulge, Lexa! This is your birthday month, chocolate comes guilt-free!

Like others, I do tend to romanticize bygone eras. However, I am so very, very grateful I live in a time of air-conditioning, Advil, and Lindt chocolates. Amen. :-D

I'm adding purple pens to your list and ultra thin Sharpie markers. Love them. :)
Bring on the chocolate!
My week has also been very heavy. Things that got me through: Buffy, chocolate, wine, cupcakes :)
That's where I've been going wrong - not enough chocolate!
chocolate and air conditioning! definitely something to be thankful for:)

Sorry to hear you had a frustrating week. I'm also a big fan of solving my problems via chocolate. Sending you some virtual chocolate truffles (my fav!). And here's to a better week!
I hope the new week is a better one for you. Always the chocolate.
So I read your most recent post and I'm going to celebrate your HUGE news about Soul Cutter with you! *shakes pom poms* I think I've read an excerpt somewhere from it. HUGE CONGRATS!
And of course I celebrate the small things with you too. Especially chocolate LOL!

I'm loving a/c right now. Also, it keeps chocolate cool.
