I woke myself and Byron up in the middle of the night because I was talking in my sleep. I don't remember exactly what I said, but Byron said it was something like "I absolutely refuse! No way!" I do remember I was sitting up in bed and being somewhat strident (almost yelling), and of course I realized I was awake right away, so I...

I'd argue that the cat was asserting his independence in both cases: first by staying out and then by getting up on the table. I've done the same thing under similar circumstances: making a dumb decision, getting hurt and then doing something else provocative or stupid to demonstrate my own volition. "Am I not a man?" as Zorba once asked, "and is not a man stupid?" Glad to hear that you got some sleep and some sun.

Aw, I'm blushing, y'all.........

Don't worry, I'm paid up through July 6; you're stuck with me til then at least! I just need to accept the fact that most people rule and some people drool. If I haven't learned that by now, then shit - class dismissed!

I actually have a project to work on that I brought home from the library. They're having a...

That sounds fun, actually. The pay off is if you're going to be at the actual event and get to see the kids enjoying the fruits of your labors, but you know that, I'm sure.

Thanks for participating in the Oracle thread. Isn't that picture adorable?

I don't know if I'm gonna renew my membership when the 3 months are up. It's getting kinda weird around here. There's a nasty vibe in the air that I just can't pinpoint. It's getting to be not too much fun anymore. We'll see. frown

I should be going to the post office, but as usual, here I am... Changed the profile pic again; me in my Tribal dance outfit with my Naughty Secretary Club bracelets. Ooh, scary. The mermaid one broke; need to replace.

Byron came home with a cold yesterday, but he's feeling better today. That poor guy gets more colds than anyone I know. He's got allergies...

Yesterday's bowling scores: 91, 97 and 129. Not bad for someone who bowls maybe 3 times a year (must remedy that). I definitely need to get an 11 pound ball; I think I've outgrown my 20-year-old 10 pounder.

OK, insert requisite bowling ball joke here. I like the phone prank one:

CALLER: Do you have 10 pound balls?
BOWLING ALLEY EMPLOYEE: Yes.
CALLER: Well how...

First we hit the Goodwill as-is in Milwaukie and got another buttload of stuff. Byron has quite a knack for discovering odd pieces of old electronic equipment and games. The hipster contingent was surprisingly low this...

Thanks for the kind words and support, everyone. Yer da best!! kiss If you're curious, just go to the "...how do you all get by?" thread on the Lifestyle board and see where it all began. I have no idea what happened after I signed off, and I don't wanna know. Whatever.

Byron's boss (and high school classmate) gave him his entire Get Smart collection on...

nothing wrong with what you said.some of those ppl could take some of that advice to heart.
Anyways whatever floats ya boat I guess,never been one for scipt drugs myself,I hardly take asprin.
Have indulged in party extras on a number of occasions but that has always been for entertainment and never as an "escape"........rock and roll pretty much does it for me,and footy,and a few beers,and riding my bike and sometimes solitude,peace and quiet.

There's nothing to make one feel more like shit than trying to help out someone who's hurting, and instead of thanks, you get accused of being "judgemental" and basically not knowing what you're talking about. OK, I don't understand addictive personalities. I was just trying to help. I'm sorry. Won't happen again. You all can wallow about in your existential angst; obviously you enjoy it....

screw_that:
Take heart in the fact that you tried to help.. most people are so preoccupied with their own world they can't even get that far... It says a lot about you as a person that you care enough to try to help...

It's unfortunate that a lot of people can't even accept help until they hit rock bottom and realise how badly they need it...

And it angers me greatly that some people just don't seem to "get" the implications/motivations behind someone helping them... ...caring...

Hope this makes sense.. I don't know the situation, so this is just a general rant about people and consideration and inconsideration...

hmm..
estrada:
People are often conditioned to not accept help, it goes against "rugged individualism". At least you tried, so many other people do not even bother with that.

Learning to accept help took me a long time, and I am still having problems with it.

I hope you feel better.
