Also if it ever happens again and on campus, feel free to go to the WRC. We can give you tea and give you a relatively private place to be in, or walk you up to the counselling centre. Just saying because I have them now and then and trying to find a place to hide while its happening is the wt.

And I concur about the work and school thing. I'm thinking about asking for Sundays off so I can guarantee at least one day a week to stay home and chill.

It actually ties in with the break in thing. My boyfriend dropped me off home, I went inside, and then realized no one was home and I was alone. I just had a total freak out about it. I didn't realize I was actually that upset about the whole thing until that happened.

Also complete thanks. Although I don't think it will happen again. Well. If it did happen again it would probably be at my house. Although if I ever start to have a panic attack or bawl on campus for any reason it's good to know where to run.

What triggers your panic attacks? From what I read up there school seems to be stressing you out intensely.

Sundays off would be a good idea. Everyone needs a day to just relax. I'm one of those people who usually use Sundays to get caught up on school. Nothing is open past 6, so there's less temptation to leave the house and not study.

Might be breaking up with my girlfriend (again), can't afford booze.

Ben Lahnger · 09-25-2011, 05:29 PM

JCC, I'm sorry to hear that. Added pisser, it's a bad time to not be able to afford booze.

So I had a problem with the car again. I was doing my laundry, and since the leasing office was closed (during hours they are normally open) I waited for the washer and dryer cycles by sitting in my car. It turns out that even if you turn the dome light out, leaving your doors open (I did this to get a breeze) will drain your battery. And the battery was already old and weak. So of course the car wouldn't start when I got done with the laundry.

I had a 4 hour training session for my employees I had to attend at 7:00am this morning for work, and missing it wasn't an option. I couldn't afford a battery, but I could afford $45 for a "Portable Power" jump-starter unit, so I walked to Walmart and bought one last night. Charging it overnight proved enough to get the car started this morning and I made it to work on time. I charged the unit more while in the training, but didn't need it to crank the car when it was time to go.

So, I'm even more broke than before, but I might make it to payday after all.

I hate the FUCKING BUS

For the last two weeks now when I get out of my last class for the day.
The bus has been late. I would love to catch a earlier bus but my class does not let out at that time.

So I have any where from a 30 min wait to a 45 min wait (if the bus is late) .

Now I no problem waiting with my iPod a lone. But I am not a lone I have to wait with about 45 some times more other people even that i do not mind even in the heat.

What I do mind is the 10 to 15 pot smoking n***s that are there smoking.
Now I am not saying that smoking pot is bad or that I am against it. No I do not care just do it at home. All that I am saying is there is a time and place.

Not every some smokes not every one likes the smell of pot .

One its a no drug alcohol school. Two It's the fucking bus stop you really can not wait to get home. Three THERE IS A FUCKING TIME AND PLACE.

School is a trigger, but Chinese is the only one really bad this semester. I usually love this prof but she's hard on the self esteem. It sucks, I was looking forward to this class being my fun class, but its a headache

I'm thinking about dropping it, if I'm doing contemp religious movements I don't really need it unless I want to do Chinese studies, which I don't think is where I'm going to go. I feel disappointed but I had another panic attack today.

Is this rant about pot-smoking or n***s?

Either way, I don't see what the big deal is. Life sucks, let people get high. WTF?

Grr I'm going to be flaky again and lay around, watching tv.

Solumina · 09-27-2011, 11:01 PM

Why am I always tired when I wake up and sleepy at work but at soon as I am home and can actually go to bed I'm never tired anymore?

Versus · 09-27-2011, 11:06 PM

Because the urge to sleep in is a law of nature that binds all living creatures. Especially on the weekends.

And work is boring, so everybody wants to sleep through it.

I got up at 4 this morning and was exhausted the entire time I was out on a mission, but as soon as I got back I wasn't tired and came here to dick around on the internet. WEIRD.

That's cuz Kittens is playful and energetic!

carakitty · 09-28-2011, 09:00 AM

Just got an email about a family who is dealing with the wife + mom having AML. That fucking sucks. My brother had it and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. My heart is breaking for them and I want to help them out.

*Twitch · 09-29-2011, 10:14 AM

Well I'm 50$ short on my rent this month. Guess I'm going to have to ask my roomie to spot me it until next week. Fuck. This is going be a really shitty month.

MissCheyenne · 09-29-2011, 01:20 PM

Mum's getting worse. All her hair is falling out as well which is upsetting her a lot. I had the hairdresser come out and cut it short this afternoon. She's getting more confused and spends most of the time sleeping now, she rarely notices that I'm even in the room with her anymore

CarrionCorpse · 09-29-2011, 01:22 PM

I am so sorry MC. I wish there was something someone could do for you...
Sending good thoughts your way <3

carakitty · 09-29-2011, 01:50 PM

Hugs from me, MissCheyenne. Your Mum has cancer, right? What type? I'll keep your family in my prayers.

Son of a bitch. My car started overheating today. (#ifitsnotonethingitsanother) ... I checked the oil, it was good. I let it cool off, checked the radiator, seemed low so I added the quarter jug of radiator fluid I had left, then refilled it a quarter with water and added that. Started driving home and in short order it started over-heating again. Then it pinned the needle past "hot" and started losing power, so I pulled off the highway. When I rolled into a Denny's parking lot, it started smoking.

So I called roadside assistance and had it towed to my garage ... again.

1) I've used up my roadside assistance. No more tows, jumps or other assistance until April of next year. Guess I'll have to price AAA's roadside package.

2) I can't afford any more repair bills. Hell, I can't afford what it's going to cost in mass transit costs to get to the garage tomorrow. Assuming they can fix it. Hopefully cheaply.

3) Something is going to have to give. Rent. Food. Gas. Which can I not pay. FML.

My company offered me a position managing our store in Montgomery, which is about 45 miles from here, but would pay the amount I was originally hired at (PLUS probable bonuses) back before my pay was cut, which would allow me to get out of the hole pretty soon ... if I can only freaking get there.

I may be taking a lot of prized possessions to the pawn shop tomorrow.

And it seems like nothing I am going through is as painful or difficult as what MissCheyenne is going through, but I needed to bitch about it somewhere.

--------------------------------------------------------

MissCheyenne, words fail me. I really can't imagine. I guess when she can't remember, it's up to you to remember for both of you. I hope you find courage and strength when you need them most. Once again, you are in my thoughts.

Mr.Doobie · 09-29-2011, 08:44 PM

I am fucking sick and fucking tired of watching breast cancer being turned into a fucking brand.

ape descendant · 09-29-2011, 09:52 PM

Come on, Mr. Doobie, Pancreases are just too hard to sexualize and market.

Solumina · 09-29-2011, 10:41 PM

I've been feeling pretty off all week but tonight it really hit me hard. I honestly have no idea what it is but I know I really don't like it.

Yeah. What color would they make the ribbons? Ewwwwww!

Ben Lahnger · 09-30-2011, 07:42 AM

Thermostat bad. Hoses need replacing. Radiator needs flushing.

This money-pit of a car is going to nickel and dime me to death.

I told my mechanic the next time my car breaks down, I'm just going to get out, leave it parked where it is and go find a tree or cave to camp out under. That's where I'm going to live from then on. I'll learn to survive on roots and berries, and I'll let my worldly possessions go. I hope my dog will forgive me.

Had to go for a smear test today ( lovely birthday gift..not ) What on earth is all the fuss about? I've seen all sorts of comments ( not here ) and quotes about them being uncomfortable, even painful. I was expecting some sort of traumatic experience. Didn't feel a damn thing. I'm curious as to how supposedly uncomfortable a soft rubbery mini basting brush ( used to collect the cells ) is meant to be.

Some people have sensitive cervixes. It wasn't the brush that hurts me, it was more the prying me open part, and the brush part doesn't hurt, its just distressing. Like, ever while having sex, have you had your cervix not hit but just brushed up against? Its not painful its just like YOU SHOULD NOT BE TOUCHING ME THERE ALERT ALERT ALERT.

Am I immature for laughing hysterically while reading that?
