    I have a theory. It's just 2014 having its last digs at us. At least that's what MY 2014 has been like. It's been a weird year all around ...head for January and don't look up till you get there! :)

    If you are referring to the blogs that are a part of this forum platform, you need to send a PM to Daniel, the site owner. This isn't the first time someone has made mention of this issue with the blog. But the blog function is more of a lateral area in our forum. The real party, where the communication in this forum happens in the forum proper. The blog is meant as a place for musings and meanderings.

    When I attempt to enter your blog, all I get is that "there are no threads to display".

    Went to a restaurant I'd been to before at an atypical time for lunch to get some peace and quiet as previous. Waiter seated a young couple right next to me and the guy was a nonstop chatterbox trying to impress his date. I thought he'd stop soon enough but it didn't happen and their food wasn't going to arrive for another half hour. I ate my meal as fast as I could, tried putting on earphones, but my expression was getting worse and worse.

    I think the waitstaff realized their mistake because the next party that came in got seated three tables away from us. I practically ran out when I was done.

    This is just venting, but a really well respected and wonderful colleague at work was killed today in a traffic accident. As a manager and team leader I had to show strength and leadership and help the team get through this. She was very well respected and had close bonds with many of the staff, including me. I worked with her closely every day. But as a leader you have to be strong and make the right calls and support those who struggle. And we've done that. But I'm not coping with this well privatly and getting ready to get back to work tomorrow. I'm literally finishing my second bottle of wine right now. This isn;t easy/

    No, it's not easy. It's awful. What a loss. I'm sorry.

    I hate when you know the only thing stopping you from living up to your potential is yourself.

    I know the feeling. D:

    What's making me furious now is that the Zelda Universe forums is down, and had been so for a day or two. I'm getting kind of nervous for the forum. :/

    The batteries in my remote went dead and I don't have any to replace them! It's also raining so I can't go right now to get new ones. :rant:

    I am reminded of the proverb, "For Want of a Nail"

    For want of a nail the shoe was lost.
    For want of a shoe the horse was lost.
    For want of a horse the rider was lost.
    For want of a rider the message was lost.
    For want of a message the battle was lost.
    For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
    And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.

    Hey I'm not just making excuses. Would you walk a quarter mile in the freezing rain? It's barely over freezing temperature outside right now. Luckily it's now quit raining so that after the Bengals' game I can walk to the store. :agreed:

    Got my dogs groomed yesterday and after all the hair came off, horror was revealed: one of them is fat! I had to have him neutered a few months ago because his prostate is enlarged and the vet said it had to be done. Now he looks like a fat black mutt! :(
