Yikes... I'm sorry, Mark. I've read your other posts about bad work days, and they were pretty bad, so if this one's the worst, I'm *really* sorry. Hope your wife and kids will bring a smile to your face? And me?

Think of boobies. Maybe Xng'll post some cleavage for yeh.

I had a dream about equality and peace. Then I woke up and found out that I had been bleeding all over the little boy I've been sleeping with.

Right.

Plus, he posts pics of himself that freak us out, like this

[drgnlvr]

:shock:

What a lovely guy.

A psycho member of Nambla, huh?

[winged_dreams]

That's freaking messed up. Ick.

I hate freaking kids sometime. I have nothing against being immature (I do it quite a bit) but calling up a video store and asking questions about our porn is just a little retarded. The call went like this.

Boy (sounded young): Do you have adult movies?

Me: Yes.

Boy: How much do you have?

Me: We have a whole room.

Boy: What are some of the titles?

Me: I don't know. I don't go back there. (That's a lie. I actually know quite a bit about our porn. Yay! ^_^)

Boy: What kinds do you have?

Me: Well why don't you come and find out if you're 18. *hang up*

GRRR! Try and prank call our store but I so showed them!!

where the fuck was I when that happened???

someone forgot to take their seroquel today^.. *seroquel is an antipsychotic to the uneducated*

[akhira]

What...is....that????? :shock:

He/she is hopefully being treated in the emergency ward right now.

[edible_eye]

hey, thanx guys. after some sleep, things have started off a little better today - i get another 16 hours in the hell hole. heh.

as for the slasher pic - most times, individuals cut themselves to relieve flashbacks of both psycholgical and physical trauma. they don't necessarily need emergency room treatment, although the laceration on his wrist would probably benefit from a few sutures, based on appearance. the other side of that is - sutures tend to reduce the severity of scars and quite often, when someone mutilates their flesh, scars serve to remind them of the damage they've inflicted upon themselves and survived. "battle scars", if you will - a constant reminder that no matter how badly they're hurt, they have the ability to survive. usually, it's other people who freak out when they see it, especially while the slashes are fresh, cuz society in general can't fathom someone mutilating their flesh in such a fashion. let's face it - with the time and energy that person invested in carving such a pretty picture, if he or she wanted to kil him or herself, he or she could have cut and cut and cut, deeper and deeper and deeper until all arteries were severed and his blood ran dry. knee jerk reactions to such a display usually leave someone frustrated and resentful when dealing with the "why" in relation to someone's cutting behavor. not that i mind leaving someone frustrated and resentful at times, especially when dealing with fuckfaces who know that a few slashes here and there will get people running around in an attempt to "help" them. manipulators. borderlines. pains-in-the-asses.

ok... the reason i started writing all this was what?

shut the fuck up, edible.

gotcha. edible out.

[TeapotScar]

I don't know why you started writing it, but I was really interested. I never thought of scars being a healing presence on someone's body- that's really interesting.

And just FYI that's not a real pic of spoonjiggle- Al found it on the internet. So don't worry- he's not *that* psychotic. Just hella annoying.

[edible_eye]

i knew that was an alkilyu special - he's so friggin' brilliant it makes my brain hurt.

as for self-mutilation and its many implications, current research and new understanding into such behavior has revealed quite an expansive view into the traumatized psyche of people who are suffering, for the most part, quietly.

[ragdoll_misfit]

You want randomness, well...

The green cow ran down the dark path, but was attecked by vicious rabit who ate his brains.

Anyways, anyone know of any good brands of blue hair die for dark hair?
I want to know if one exists, because I don't want to take the time and bleach my hair.

[ragdoll_misfit]

Oh and about the self mutalation:
treatment facilities don't work. Been there done that. The need for pain and reminder will always come first before anything a shrink says or does. They may try to break the habit, but it is a lifelong need. Although I do know people that disagree with me.

[edible_eye]

sniff, sniff...

i smell fire and flames a-brewing. i'd cast some myself but i'm too tired to care right now.

[edible_eye]

and a quick note, ragdoll -

treatment facilities aren't "supposed to work". you're "supposed to work". treatment facilities can only hope to help in assisting an individual gain some insight when it comes to self-mutilation, cutting, whatever. it's you, the person, who has the responsibility to work on changing your own behaviors if you want to. putting your own responsibility into someone else's hands and expecting all to be well is not only lazy, it's an aberration of logic.

- this is me. you fix it. -

it's not easy, there is no quick fix. it's tedious and sometimes lifelong work. pointing at others as a reason for - not working - is a cop out and an insult to those who struggle to bury their demons.

[ragdoll_misfit]

I think I get your drift

[Empty_Purple_Stars]

Reading the Denver paper online.

This is one of the headlines:

Police: Girl Admits Killing Dad, But Many Questions Unanswered

Investigators Want To Know If Father Shoot Himself First

Does anyone else see anything terribly WRONG with this headline?

Or is it just me?

What a bunch of dumbasses.

[akhira]

Takes the cake among dumb newspaper headlines.

SO eine verdammete Scheisse!!

[Empty_Purple_Stars]

I planted my first garden this past weekend, in a tiny little corner of our yard.

I have a black thumb, and consequently plants have never liked me. I like them very much, but I seem to kill them.


So this was a big deal to dorky ol me.


I planted pansies and primroses. Tulips and Hyacinths. And three strawberry plants. Then I went around the edge of the bed with wildflower seeds.


The boys helped me plant them and you would have thought it was Christmas they were so excited. My son keeps checking on the Strawberry plants and saying " o0o0o NO strawberries yet !! " I tried to explain that would take a few months but he refuses to accept this.


I must admit I am excited that they aren't dead yet, and they already look so pretty.


It was a healing thing for me, giving life. Creating beauty. I hope this works because I want to keep doing it. I have been so sick lately and in so much pain, its been terribly hard to focus on simple and beautiful things.

It made me smile..


Everything is so green and full of flowers here in Oregon. Like nowhere I have ever seen, and I just had to be part of it.


Yay for flowers !


Ha..

[gingerbreadwench]

That's so cool, EPS. I remember reacting the same way about "strawbaby" plants when I was little. I have fantasies of having a garden now. Well... I have fantasies of having a window box with more than one plant in it. I dream low.

One fantasy that is my current fixation is the tea bar.

I want to open a tea bar in Honolulu. I chose Honolulu because it's hot all the time there and it wouldn't be financially idiotic to open a place that serves specialty iced teas year-round, as opposed to say, Seattle, where I'd shut down in two days. Perhaps not because of failing business, but more because I can't handle the cold there. I nearly froze to death in August a few years ago.

ANYWAY, yes. I'd like to open a tea bar in Honolulu that serves iced tea. I love making my own blends of iced tea from the huge tea drawer that we have at home. Best blends so far: Passion/lemongrass, Passion/grapefruit, Hibiscus/lemongrass. I LOVE LOVE LOVE iced tea. And I only drink it unsweetened. If I open my tea bar, I'd like to have a little sign up that says "We respectfully request that you enjoy our teas unsweetened." We'll have honey and simple syrup and (gag) Splenda available for idiots who demand it though.

Really, though, the iced teas that I make are so delicious and flavorful that you shouldn't need sweetener. I already consider myself a bit of an iced tea conoisseuse, if there is such a thing.

So, anyway... lately I've been having this vision of me and four or five tea-bar employees sitting in the bar after closing time, filling and tying tea bags while "talking story" and listening to Hanson.

Well, perhaps some things I'll have to sacrifice.

[Suiside_Kitty]

GBW... thats so awesome..

i'm one of those idiots. a good glass of lipton iced tea or a bottle of arizona helps chase the thirst-demons away.

maybe you could have two sections - one for the unsweetened elite and one for the idiotic flavor-cravers. what do you think?
