Life is bullshit.
And today was prime, grade A bullshit

1) Every fucking thing that could go wrong at work, did

2) Dealing with the motherfucking phone company...and getting pissed and pissed and pissed

3) Missing my man. Wanting to be with him so fucking much right now it hurts...and I can't. You have no idea how much this hurts.

I don't know why I'm so pissed right now, but I am.

End of rant

2. Hey. We got a liberal Supreme Court decision today.
Doesn't that cheer you up?

14. liberal?
i'd just call it a "not insanely right-wing" decision.

seriously, do moderates favor giving the government the power to kill their kids?

3. Aww I'm sorry, terry.

:(

I'm as depressed and sad as you are pissed.

If there was anything I could do to improve your mood, I would.

:pals:

5. Call Doug.
Edited on Tue Mar-01-05 05:17 PM by whoisalhedges
He loves you. And you're not with him now, but you will be again, soon. Make some plans with him.

I know what it's like to be separated from someone you love. It fucking sucks. But there's always something you can do to make the distance seem less. It won't go away, but it can lessen a bit.

And, if you ever need to talk, you can always call your friends. We're here for you. :hug:


edit: Dunno what to tell you about work or the telco. I hate my job, and I hate dealing with phone/cable/whatever people. And I'll always hate it. So, no advice, brother.

19. Thank you, guy.
I know he loves me. As much as I love him. Oh, yeah...are we going to be together again. Oh, yes. :-)

Like I said in my post to Blue-Jay, I'm getting a phone card and will talk to Doug tonight. He's dealing with some stuff on his own...and we can talk about each other's problems and feel better.

dolo amber sent me something via PM which made me feel better. It's nice. :-)

The work I can deal with...

:hug:

7. I'll second that one. I've had a VERY forgettable day.
Not only did I discover a minor detail which could delay my graduation by 6 months, my incompetent bank fucked up an very important wire transfer. The first one should be fixable, but I swear to god/allah/buddha/shiva/whatever, I'm about to tell them to fuck off and switch banks. I've mostly gotten over it thanks to assaulting some pillows, meditation, and some herbal medicine. Sometimes you need to just let it out of your system. I feel for ya. :(

8. Big hug, Terrya.
:hug:

As someone who's failed at an LDR, I seriously salute you for having a successful one. The distance does hurt, a lot, and I feel for you, but you've got someone, however far away, and that's a blessing to count.

18. Thank you, asthmaticeog
And a BIG hug to you. :hug:

THis LDR isn't easy at times...like today. But I am going to deal with any hurdle, any barrier, anything to be with Doug. Anything.

9. yes it is
and 99.9999999999% of it is a sham or a fucking con to get money out of your pocket.

the only reason i haven't stuck a pistol in my mouth for this long is because of my family and handful of real friends.

13. I'm gonna BEAT Terry the next time I see him!
He started a sympathy thread and then left to go home before he was able to get all lovey-dovey with everyone that replied.

You're in big trouble, Mister Man.

16. No...I'm still here.
Thank you, Blue-Jay. Thank you for your very nice post. It really did help.

I'm taking whoisalhedges's advice. Phone company or no, I can buy a phone card...which I will do...and I will talk to Doug tonight.

Thank you again...head off the beating, ok??

15. "Life is bullshit"...consider the alternative....
Beer or whiskey for dinner is always a tough choice for me.

I know it's not much, but I know how it feels to have one of those "fuckit" days...and it's worse when you're away from the one you love.
Do something good for yourself tonight!

22. You need to commisserate with my partner...
He had a bad day too....Tonight will be better though, guaranteed, unless your phone gets disconnected!

Michael spent several summers away from home getting his masters and I know how miserable that time was for me. :hug:

23. LETS RETHINK THIS
!) You have a man that you obviously love.

2) You have a job--some don't have one.

3) You have a phone--some don't have that either!

4) You have a temper! You are good at expressing yourself.

5) You are young and have your health and your life is ahead of you.

6) Lets pause now, take a good deep breath and be thankful for all you have.

25. Don't worry, tarrya, tomorrow's another day.
Who HASN'T the phone company pissed off?
Work will be better tomorrow.
If it hurts missing your man, at least it means you love him!

Peace, fella Chicagoland DUer!
