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

That sucks

[TPD]

Sorry Iz. That's really rough.

[Aaron]

That sucks IZ. I'm sorry for your loss.

[sin]

I'm really sorry IZ.  Makes the rant I was going to post seem pretty trivial.

My best work friend's last day is today.  He found a gig somewhere else.  I am kind of depressed about the whole thing, but only for purely selfish reasons.  I am happy he is getting the fuck out of this place, but it will be SO BORING without him here.  We have a like mindset, and although I have other friends here, I don't click with them in the way I do with him.  8(

This sucks, but it's even more motivation to move on.  I have been polishing up the resume and contacting head-hunters, so hopefully I will be gone soon as well.

[boom]

I really hope you find something soon r00! Theo finally got out of his dead end job and his attitude change was like night and day.

So my anniversary was on wednesday and it was the first one we've been apart for, which put me in a bummer mood. Then the kids chose that evening to finally realize that daddy wasn't coming home from work to play with them so I could go to work, cuing an epic meltdown from both of them as I was trying to leave. I basically had to bolt out the door because standing there trying to console them was only making it worse.

[r00]

thanks boom.  I am glad theo found something that makes him so much more happy.  I know the second I leave here (even if it was not of my own free will), it would feel like such a weight off my shoulders and will definitely change my overall mood.  I can't wait.

@everyone: Thanks for the condolences, guys. Like I mentioned before, I can't even imagine what her husband and kids are going through right now. Turns out it wasn't merely bronchitis, but she had some sort of infection in the lungs, I guess? I'm still trying to figure out what exactly the infection was, but I don't want to just talk to Thor (her husband, who happens to be an awesome guy with the most badass first name ever) and ask him "So uh, I know the memories are still fresh and all but uh, what killed your wife?" you know? We just recently lost a good friend to cancer the past year. It's like everyone's just dropping like flies...

@r00: My heart goes out to you and turtle, r00. That's just as awful. Maybe a better job will help lighten the mood after all!

@boom: Augh, having an anniversary apart sounds painful. I adore kids but it seems like all children have a knack for switching on the "ME ME ME!" switch at the worst possible times. lol

[kristin]

I'm really sorry to hear about your friend, iz.

[luna]

ugh i feel like poo

[Aaron]

I'm losing my faith in human kind.


Also I will never understand woman. And anymore I don't think I want to even bother trying... (Not directed at anyone here. Yall are cool.) EVEN more so when they ask me for advice in subjects I have zero information in (relation ships.) I really don't get it...

[chimera]

Well when they ask you for advice it's really more related to the fact that you're a guy -  they want the inside track, as it were.  But you know what?  You've got to find someone who isn't already programmed...we're all indoctrinated in how to be male and female and it's all such bullshit, honestly.

I know, "Bitter old lady much, chim?"  Move along...

[Aaron]

Ya, I understand that.

Also don't feel bad Chim, I'm already bitter and not even 25... (I think I'm worse then bitter though.)

[sin]

I had the "broken hand dream" again last night.  Hadn't had that one in awhile, although I have to admit it makes me feel pretty rad to have a disturbing, recurring dream.  Still a bit unpleasant.

[rokken like dokken]

This causes me more anxiety than anything else, as a new parent - how can I let her be who she'll be without the rest of the world doing anything necessary to put her in the box?
