Hell yeah. Buck thirty raise. Now I can buy that car I always wanted.
My cat died yesterday.
sevenmag:
Sorry to hear about your cat man.
jenosyde:
Thanks, man. Had him since I was a kid, so it was hard to watch him go even though I knew it'd come. Women and friends have come and gone, but he was always a constant, ya know? Ah well, shit happens.
Well, my cat died today while I was at work. Had him since I was a kid. Knew it was gonna happen. Still doesn't make it any easier to watch it happen. I'm gonna miss him. Love ya, Squeek.
I hate being sick
Well, my freaking cat had to go get himself diabetes. Or kidney disease. Either way, I'm not happy. I already got one cat that needs this special expensive food cuz he had to have his weiner cut off. These fricken cats better be glad I have this perverse sense of loyalty.
caffeineheadache:
good lord!!! would your cats do the same for you?!!??!
jenosyde:
I doubt the lazy bastards could hold down a job long enough to afford to.
Well, one of my cats is dying. Granted, he is old, and everyone knows a pet's life expectancy when they get one, but I've had him since i was a little kid. Sucks to see him go. I don't want him to die, but I can't do anything about it. Just hurts to have to watch it happen so slowly.
Just for the record, chaser does NOT work. I feel like I got hit by a mack truck.

Okay, I've gotten a lot of feedback on this one, which is really cool of all of you. But here is one of the things that's been floating around in my brain. Now, I gotta lotta friends who are single mothers, but they know me, so it's biast. So I'm gonna pitch this one towards the ladies. Imagine you feel like you have this little hole in you. You've had it for a long time now. Imagine that as time goes on, that hole gets rougher, more jagged. Harder to find a piece that fits in it. Imagine that you find someone that clicks with you in all kinds of ways. Someone that seems to think the same twisted shit as you, which maybe isn't something you run into every day. They're crazy about your kid, and they're crazy about you. Now imagine that you're me. Imagine that you meet a chick that has all the qualities you've been looking for. She's chill, laid-back, but still got that fire in her when she gets going. You dig her alot. You dig her kid too, alot. Someone that thinks the same shit you normally don't say out loud in front of other people, ya know? But you got this weird "passing-the-gene" shit, this complete aversion to raising another man's child. You know you'd love the kid, but something's just always gonna be missing there. Like if you two had another kid, you'd love the other one a little more bezuase it's yours. And that feeling just doesn't go away. Probably won't ever, whether you like it or not. It's just there. You just know it ain't gonna pan out in the long run. If you were that girl, would you not feel like I cared more about my lifestyle than you?
I'd say you were entirely normal.
What's makes more sense? Wanting to have your own child, or getting excited because someone yammers about the same stuff as you from time to time? Fact is, romantic love comes & goes, but your children are always yours. If you break up with this woman now, you won't think about it 10 years afterwards. But if instead you were to forgo having your own children during your lifetime, you probably will think about it until the day you die. So it's best to put the horse before the cart. Don't let your romantic inclinations (or your penis) lead you into an uncomfortable parenting situation.
Follow the links:
Limbic system -> Emotions -> Love
Cerebral cortex -> Reasoning -> Logic
As you go through life, some people will encourage you to subvert reason to follow your emotions. In such cases, their conscious intentions may be benign, but always see on which side their bread is buttered, because that is where their unconscious prejudices are formed.
Plan for the long term, not the intermediate term. At least, that's the way I look at it.
Another way to look at it: there are always other fish in the sea, but only a few children in the world will ever be related to you.
Yet another way to look at it: though not precisely in the same fashion, haven't you felt great about *another* woman before? Where is she now?
Yet a third way to look at it: ever have a really hard time getting out of bed, because it was *soo* comfortable, even if you knew it was something that you needed to do to fulfill your long-term objectives?
Women get tired of waiting and break up with men because of their *failure to commit* or because the guy does not wish to have children. Why feel guilty? It's entirely normal.
