The Not Happy Thread

Aarghh! Panic. Don't like all these university deadlines, there's so much to do. I may need to ban myself from the internet during the day.

 

Wow...I just scanned down this entire page and was sad to see that everyone is having a rough time today. *hugs all around* I hope things turn out well for all of you.

I'm not happy...not as unhappy as the rest of you though. I'm just sad to see this beautiful day off come to an end. *sniff* Work tomorrow. *whimper*

 

I have a close friend that life just kind of pooped on her face over the last few months. She lost one of her best friends (in a complicated twist of events that didn't include dying). Her family is the most complicated messed up thing I've seen in my entire life - I sometimes feel it warrants a Maury episode. She has severe (but untreated) depression.

And today we found out that one of her close friends has what is the equivalent of Stage 4 cancer.

I don't even know what to do. And I'm 1,200 miles away and not immediately available to help her and hold her through this.

 

^ Oh no!!! That's terrible. I hope everything gets better for her -- if she's still in school, are there resources there she could go to for help?

I had a meeting today that was supposed to be 30 minutes and ended up being three hours.

 

No - that's one of the other things I failed to mention.. she got kicked out of her school.

 

Alright, Alright, I'll quit counting the days in the forum.

 

Oh, didn't mean that. You carry on counting if it suits.
Simply wondered why you were counting. Perhaps you've already mentioned it?

 

Hadn't mentioned it, partially because it makes me like like a dope. Just counting days from someone I'm head over heels for.

 

Sounds like the very best of reasons. Just six ****ing days to go, baby!

 

Agreed Woohoo! Only six more days

That's the sweetest thing, don't feel like a dope

 

I have to agree, that's cute! Not dopey at all.

 

Stranded and nowhere to go!

I am stranded in an airport because my connecting flight back home got delayed. It's one in the morning now and I don't want to go out looking for accommodation in this strange city where I know nobody

My flight is four hours away. How do I kill four hours?

 

Find an insipid facebook game to play? Or write?

 

You write.

 

I would if my eyes were not half closed and my brain not half functioning *yawn* it's 2 am now *yawn*

 

Isn't this the perfect time to actually get stuck reading TV-troups? Or SCP foundation?

 

Oh. I've been there several times.

What I do is get the computer out of the carry on luggage, find a wall socket (there are many in all airports) and play games.

 

Fell down outside and got nasty scrapes on both my knees.

I am the clumsiest person in the entire world, I kid you not.

 

I would be using that precious time...to sleep.

 

I'm banned from the computer for 3 more weeks.

(However, that didn't stop me from sneaking on it now. )

 

What in the world happened, GNR? Why are you banned?

 

From the computer because my parents and I got into a fight. What else is new? Suffice it to say that we don't have the best relationship.

 

A fight over what?

3 weeks is a bit extreme. If I had to ban my child from a computer, it'd be 3 days max.

 

I'm usually banned from the computer for a week if I wake up too late. Frustrating? Yes. I'm never going to do that to my kids.

Anyway, I have to write a report for the Lab Experiment about density that my class did recently. Plus I really should be expanding that research on nuclear medicine...*sigh*...

 

Wait, they ban you from the computer because you wake up too late? WTF!? Do they think you stay up all night on the computer? Paranoid much? My parents know I love both videogames and the computer, but if I wake up late, they just assume I was dead tired the night before and are glad I got a decent night's rest.
