The not happy thread

I have to agree with the above posts. On one hand, it is a writing forum, but on the other it's a community of people who know each other and often keep up to date with going on via the Tavern. Fair enough on offering a warning regarding posts just saying 'Morning' or some such, mind. Having a load of those posts would send the bandwidth through the roof.

Anyway, I'm not happy because my knee has, apparently, taken the executive decision to go on me again. Can't walk on the beggar properly, because it hurts like hell and I haven't a clue what I've done in order for it to hurt like that.

 

I too agree with the above posts. This place is a community as well as a place to better your writing, taking away or limiting either aspect negatively affects the other aspect as well as the people and friendships on the site.

As for me, I hate my brother right now. I really really hate his guts.

 

For the record, I have given warning after warning about using discretion with respect to posting bandwith is some of the purely recreational threads.

Those warnings are invariably ignored, at best. The result, therefore, is that stronger measures must be taken.

Threads which are interactive only to the extent that they encourage members to take turns appending posts are being closed. That includes the Tavern DJ thread.

Folks, this is not Twitter, nor is it a place to feed Internet addiction to fill empty moments of boredom There is nothing wrong with socializing, but when the Tavern grows so quickly it is impossible to follow a conversation without staying online full time, something is seriously wrong.

I understand this is not going to be a popular choice with everyone, but this is still a writing site, and the noise level must be kept at a manageable level.

I'm not happy with all the grumbling about it. Remember WHY you decided to join a writing site.

 

All I can say is that I agree with all the above posts (and I'm sorry for any further grievances). I don't want to start a revolution by any means, but what everyone has said above me is 100% true.

 

I am not happy about the new immigration law that got passed here in AZ.

Also not happy that the next time I work, it will be with our new ASM...she used to work at our store, and she currently works at the store my sister works at. From what I hear, she's very lazy and kiiiiiind of a biznatch, so...we'll see how this goes.

 

I have to wake up in less than 6 hours, and I find myself wide awake. I was lying in bed crying and writing in my head a letter to my former boss/pastor. I have spent many sleepless night doing this. Tonight, I actually wrote the letter. Moreover, I sent it. I don't know how I feel about it. Honestly after an hour and a half of crying and writing...I feel drained. I am also nervous about what response my letter will generate. I won't be home tomorrow to check my e-mail...so I will have to live with the suspense for a while. I wish I knew what response I even want...but I don't. I think I feel better just for getting it out of my head...but I certainly don't feel good yet.

 

Well, if it made you feel a bit better, it's probably a good thing, surely? What's the worst that he/she could say in a reply?

 

I couldn't sleep last night. In my mind I kept going over things from years ago, and when I did manage to drop off I woke up sweating after dreaming about something I'd rather not. I suppose the plus side of that is that I now have only 200 words of my coursework to write, but I just can't shake images from my head.

 

I have 28 hours of work over the next 4 days, and a 2,500 + 500 word assignment to finish.

My body is exploding from stress. Eczema is attacking my face, ears and belly. I've also got this pimple on my chin that's so big it's about to launch its own website.

I'm also worried, my boyfriend sees his neurologist this week for an assessment, hopefully everything goes okay, I'm just overtly pessimistic right now (obviously).

 

Why is it that when I make a joke, he gets personal, and starts insulting my intelligence, laughing in my face? How f/cking dare he.

He needs to get off his f/cking high horse and stop believing he's as clever as his dumbarse bible-bashing mummy and daddy tell him he is.

I'm sick of these f/cking people that believe they're perfect in every way, and that no matter what they say or do, their intentions are all the more sincere than your's were.

 

I can't stand pseudo intellectual phallus' like that. It's like, wow, you think you know it all, and yet, your Mummy still washes and irons your clothes for you.

 

Read my thread and you'll know why.

 

I have a load of uni assessments I need to do and I can't seem to get into it. Plus, I'm really disappointed about something and I miss someone and yeah, generally feeling down.

 

Bad days all around, it seems. I hope everyone starts feeling better!

*internet hugs*

 

My sympathies Eunoia. And thank you, hiddennovelist, it means a lot.

 

Went to the library to get a book. Went biking. Discovered half way the tire was FLAT. Had to continue walking.

 

You need to jog

Aww, that sucks!

That's why you need Robs around. We could have carried you!

 

*kills Rob*

The carrying sounds nice though.

 

Justin Bieber's fans, especially that mole who was on television because she stole his hat (and thought she was all that).

Die.

 

This, except Montreal Canadiens fans and setting police cars in fire for winning a fluke first round victory. I'm so angry right now

 

Just having another one of my days where I'm wrestling with my self worth. Thinking I'm no good at anything, and not understanding why anyone would love me, ect-ect. Wanting to cry but being unable to because I have work in an hour.

Yeah, crank out the string instruments. It's going to be a riot.

 

Aw, I'm so sorry about that, Eoz. And I may not "know" you very well, but I think you're an amazing person, and very selfless. I'd give you a hug if I was there. *HUG*


Just a little thing, but... my ear is blocked again (like almost every morning) but unlike all the other times it doesn't un-block after a while. Which means I'm pretty much half deaf now, and it's very annoying.

 

Been feeling really, really bad all week. It's been strange and horrible.

On Saturday, Sunday, and Monday nights someone in my town went out with his revolver and shot a woman through the head. The girl who was killed on Sunday night was a student from our university, and she lived right by the campus. She was just returning from the late night store with some strawberries and cream which she was going to eat with her flatmates. She was studying to be an architect and her whole life was in front of her--but no, it wasn't, thanks to this maniac.

None of us have been able to get much work done. On Tuesday about a thousand of us walked down to where she was shot and left flowers there. We just marched in silence.

Our Spring Festival has been cancelled. No one had the heart for it, even though the student council has been planning it for five months.

Just saw this morning that they caught the killer in the small hours of this morning. It was an impressive piece of police work, but it won't bring those girls back.

This is a completely unheard-of thing where I live. This is a really safe and happy city normally. I hope we never hear the likes of this again.

Sorry, guys, but sometimes it all spills out. I'll have to remember, as they say here, 'This, too, will pass'.

 

That's awful, madhoca...

It might pass, but it will neve be alright. You have my sympathies.

 

That's terrible I feel so sorry for those women...wasted lives.

Hopefully the maniac atleast gets what he deserves, but you're right, it can't bring them back. Best wishes, Madhoca x
