Are you pissed off? I'm pissed off. Vent Thread.

that sucks, mike. damn.
i hope it was painless and he's in a better place.

right before pi went down my cat suddenly died at my parent's place.
he had a freak heart attack and some convulsions.
i wasn't there when it happened. i didn't even see him for a whole month.
it's still quite shocking and sad. he was only 10.
best damn cat ever.

i currently live with two older cats that were rescued/adopted when the owner had to leave town.
they're good cats and all, but i still miss my damn cat.

That is horrible Mike. I'm sorry for your doggy .


TPD that sucks about your cat. I didn't know they had heart attacks... (I guess I'm not shocked by it, just didn't know they could.)

[Naylzie]

Aw, Mike, that's rough   I would totally want to know before it happened too. 

Sorry about your cat, too, Teeps.  I'm sitting for my parents' spaz-cat right now, and she's had medical issues since they've had her, so I know someday something horribly sad will happen, I just hope it isn't any time soon.

I seem to be getting sick and I do not appreciate it.  I think it's a sinus infection, but it's toting headaches and a sore throat as bad as the last time I got strep.  Come to find out, rumor has it that one of my kids is out with strep.  Woo!  I better not fucking have strep.  That shit is nasty.  Also, it's bad enough that I might need a sub for the last day of school because of a fucking speeding ticket in an area that most people drive like it's HIGHWAY... Yes, I get that I was doing 35 in a 25.  Yes, I get that being written up for "under 10" is apparently a big fucking deal (ok, so I clearly DON'T get that part).  But fucking seriously?  I wasn't doing FIFTY like most people do through there.  Not to mention the fact that I am pretty sure that the direction I was coming from doesn't goddamn have the limit posted.  But since it was a first offense, cop said I could appear in court and try to have it dismissed for a good driving record.  Trouble with that now is that the court date is the last day of school.  AUGH.

@rokken: Shit, dude.... that's really rough. Sorry to hear that. At least the pupparoo's in a better place now.

@tpd: Oh wow, that's no good either. Sorry, man.

@Nayl: Just something to consider, but I THINK you're allowed to contest the ticket cost if the dismissal falls through, since you weren't going 11+ MPH over the limit. I THINK. If worst comes to worse, you should probably warn your teacher now. Maybe they'll give you a little leeway in terms of schoolwork?

[Naylzie]

Well, the last day in high school is a fucking joke anyway, really.  Their grades are long since submitted and they know it, their finals are done...  Ordinarily, I'd probably try to snag a TV all day, but the English department (where I'm subbing) only has ONE rig left.  I have no idea how that happens, but the long and short is that it did.  I'm thinking Mad Libs, or some other educational venture disguised as fun, for that day anyway...  It'd be kind of a drag to have to have someone else do it, but I may not have much choice.

I do hope that, if they won't dismiss it, I can at least get it reduced.  Seriously?  95 fucking dollars for ("officially") less than 10 over?  That's more than I make in a day right now (which is why it's better for me to potentially have to miss that day than to just cough it up).

[individualzero]

My mom went 10MPH over the speed limit and got the same bullshit. $95 for going ten over? Wat.

The problem is if you take it to court to contest it, it's like ... $60 in fees and lawyer BS so you don't really save that much. Hopefully they dismiss it though.

[TPD]

thanks guyz <3

[rokken like dokken]

Yeah, it was really for the best - he was almost 15 years old, blind, his knees were going, his adrenal glands were acting up; it was just hard to know what kind of pain he was in because he was *always* in a good mood, no matter what.

[luna]

Still sucks he didn't tell you first

Theo that's sad about your kitty too. You can have mine, they're handcapped

[luna]

I would fucking love to find a job where my co-workers weren't incompetent morons

[rokken like dokken]

Yeah, that'll always be the dream...

I'd love to have a job where people my age and my position weren't seduced into naked ambition for executive status.  I feel a lot of disappointing careers down the road. 

[TPD]

thanks luna, but  i got my hands full with two tarded senior citizen kitties.

[luna]

Maybe we should have some sort of "special" cat conference then...

Boofu: *hugs* Nothing gets you more worked up than a threat to your baby. Thomas may be 19, but I'd still kill anyone that tried to hurt him.

Luna: what was the name of that product to help kittys stop piddling in the wrong places? My boys are good right now, but with 2 airplane rides coming up, I'd like some for the hotel and the new place. (They're still toms. Getting them neutered here is not only retarded expensive, but the mortality rate is high. Dunno how they die, but the blogs/forums are filled with horror stories)
