melkathi Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Very vivid dreams about going back to visit my old school. Subtext pretty clearly about ti passing, and growing up. I keep getting dreams on those lines. Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).

Woldan Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Tried to reload ammo only to find out that the primer pockets of the current batch of brass is too tight, even when seating soft primers they get squished or chipped and thats very dangerous. There is a solution to that problem but I don't like it - open up the primer pockets with a drill, but thats a LOT of work. I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.

LadyCrimson Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Mr. Grey eats enough baby food to keep from losing more weight - if I offer it 8 times a day. Still not enough tho. I think I'm going to have the vet take a lone head/dental type x-ray soon. Didn't do that yet. Could be a tiny jaw tumor that's hard to spot maybe. No face swelling (like one of my past cats) but stuff like that isn't always obvious. Off to sweep the store shelf clean of meat baby food. “Things are as they are.

I know what you're going through.- Its a pain in the behind to make sick cats eat, mine has diabetes and is 20 years old, his teeth are pretty bad. He only eats the most expensive food available and only tiny bits of it so I can always throw away the rest. Oh well..... What I did today: I developed a load that cracks the 1000 meter per second velocity mark. Cool. I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.

Rosbjerg Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 Does your memory suddenly get worse approaching 30, generally? I'm finding I can't for the life of me remember trivial stuff that happens anymore, after only a few days it just disappears. Fortune favors the bald.

No, it means that when you're 30 you finally get your priorities straight and don't sweat the small stuff. (Unfortunately most of those priorities are bills) 1 I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.

My theory is that life has become so fast and frantic the brain only concentrates on the most important stuff to prevent overload, everything else never happened and has never existed.

Hurlshort Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I went and got a massage before my back to school night, which was pretty decent.

LadyCrimson Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Memory: the older you get, the more you can remember things you did 15+ years ago like it was yesterday, but can't remember what you did last night. Half the time I barely know what day of the week it is anymore. I think we just tend to focus less and less on remembering small details. Unless it's the statistical probabilities of getting that uber weapon you want to drop in a game, of course. Braincell priorities, y'know. 1 “Things are as they are.

BruceVC Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I'm on leave today and I'm flying to the coast for my the Dad's 70 th birthday. I'm excited as I'll get to see all my brothers and sisters. We are a wide age difference from my sister who is 23 to my oldest brother who is 41. Anyway I'm saying a speech which I've been preparing. I've made the speech sentimental and humorous so it should go well 2 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Heh, my parents will never let me forget a couple of the comments they got that first parent-teacher's evening after I started secondary school.

JFSOCC Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Since winter is around the corner, and since winter depression is kind of a big deal for me, I've been trying to get back into a decent rhythm, one part of that is taking methylphenidate again... Rebound is a bitch, but I'll take a daily dip over a depression any day. Still, looking at a whole bunch of stuff you could do (read, play games, go outside) and not really being able to care/decide. Yeah, rebound is a bitch. Remember: Argue the point, not the person. Remain polite and constructive. Friendly forums have friendly debate. There's no shame in being wrong.

Woldan Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Was on the shooting range and had a lot of fun, rambled with friends about reloading techniques and tricks for an hour, shot tiny groups with my reloads, had a beer, enjoyed the aromatic smell of burned powder. ....

Walsingham Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 (edited) Dunno what's going on but the amount of girls being flirty with me is exponentially increasing...I'm going to check in the mirror and make sure I didn't accidentally become better looking They are assassins. I concur. It's well established that if a plain looking chap has women flirting with him, then they intend to lure him into a cupboard, bop him on the head and steal his keys/uniform. EDIT: If any blokes doubt this, just try wandering around without any clothes on. No uniform = no flirting. Edited August 30, 2013 by Walsingham 1 "It wasn't lies.
