LadyCrimson Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 @Calax - time for a frame? Today I did nothing very worldy interesting, just like yesterday, and am about to get my daily dose of Red Sox. “Things are as they are.

Amentep Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I spent the day unable to focus at work because I'd been at work for 11 hours the previous day. Also apparently someone made a complaint about the office so I got the hear about that. And my nap when I got home was interrupted by something falling over and making a loud thump. And now I'm sitting here bleary eyed unable to sleep hoping that I haven't just posted something like "Tharg wobbler grunk bark". I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsingham Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Woke after some very pleasant dreams that I won't go into, and set about eating soda bread, and playing Company of Heroes. I'm still getting these NAT issues, and my pet techies tell me it's down to sloppy coding rather than the server as Relic claim. Bloody frustrating. "It wasn't lies.

theslug Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 So I think I observed an eventual suicide on my way home from the gym. I was just driving along, minding my own business when all the sudden I see something incredible. There is just a young (asian I believe) man with long black hair standing off to the side of the road in the middle of the train tracks staring off into the pitch black darkness. It was really eerie. Essentially these train tracks kind of follow the wash and split neighborhoods and what not but there's always about 50 or 60 yards on either side of the track that is just undeveloped desert so it was just a long corridor of pitch darkness contrasted against the lights of suburbia so it looked pretty cool but yeah I was thinking of pulling a uturn and giving this guy a "hey buddy" or "hey a hole, the train ain't due till 10 tommorow." but I'm not that kind of person and what if he wasn't contemplating suicide then I'd be a complete tosser deluxe. Either way as far as I know that train doesn't make too many rounds so he's going to be waiting a while. Then I got home and found out the protein my mom bought me is strawberry flavored. :'( I'm damning Kevin Spacey for this one. There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsingham Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Went to a Christening with my hangover and curried sinuses. I got confused and began the affirmation of the faith before I realised what I was doing. Finished it out of embarassment in case someone realised I was a cretin. Much cake and beer at the after-party thing. I gave the wee feller a copy of Sun Tzu's Art of War. The only sensible present he had all day. "It wasn't lies.

The main problem is that she isn't really taking good careof herself. Her blood sugar level this morning was at a count of 27. Not good at all. The upside is that where she will be staying I will be able to visit a whole lot more often since we will be in the same town.

Guard Dog Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Hi all... long time no post. A lot has happened lately, too much to get into. But today I paid off all my medical bills, all my credit cards, and all of my outstanding debt. Except for my mortgage and regular monthly bills (electric, satellite, etc) I dont owe a penny to anyone. That is a GREAT feeling. I hooked up with another dog rescue group that is based in Millington. This weekend I'm getting my first foster dog since 2007. Supposedly this one (she is in animal control in Murfeesboro) has socialization issues. That is one problem I do know how to solve in dogs. I can't solve it in myself but I can fix it in dogs.

LadyCrimson Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 There's nothing like getting the big debt monkey off your back. Congrats. I've been thinking about fostering cats for a couple no-kill shelters, instead of having my own, because it always makes me so sad to see an unwanted kitty, but I'm not sure I could handle the giving them up part if they found people willing to give them permanent homes. “Things are as they are.
