So super cute!
THE FOLLOWING IS A RANT SPONSORED BY SUPERFLUOUSLYME:
I just got back from my mother's cousin's funeral. I hate funerals in general because I'm not a religious person, but I try to respect whatever faith they followed. I even recited the serenity prayer and all the passages we were asked to. I did that for her because it was a part of who she was. I have no problem with that. But this preacher/minister/father/I-don't-know-the-difference was an absolute pill. I tend to think of funerals as a way to celebrate the person who has passed. Instead, he focused on how she sinned, but because she believed in "Jeysus" (that's how he kept saying it) and the cross, she was absolved of her sins and allowed into heaven. What the blankety blank blank blank are you talking about? There was no talk of what she did with her life or about her family (she was married 60 years and had 2 sons and 3 grandsons). Instead, it was, "yeah, your family member was a sinner, but Jeysus saved her because she believed!" I didn't even know this woman very well (I think I've met her one or two times in my life), but I was absolutely pissed off.
RANT OVER.
Thank you for the kind words about my new cat. She is a sweetheart. She loves to have her belly rubbed and will play with any toy that has a feather on it. After much debate, I have decided to name her Ziggy. None of the other names I liked fit and nothing else has jumped out at me so far. I'm cool with Ziggy, except that I keep wanting to call her Zooey, which was my last kitten who died during surgery.
Here is Zig, wondering why I am bothering her when she wants to sleep.
And here is our other cat, Mouse, wondering who the **** the new kid is. (She's my little mustachioed baby.)
Okay, enough about the cats.

There is no need for you to feel awful, if he was being nasty when you where only trying to help him, then he is the one in the wrong.
If he did not want help, he should have told you in a normal tone of voice. Don't take his anger personally, being under stress does not give anyone the right to treat co-workers with disrespect.
I have the flu real bad.

I am feeling very paranoid about my physical appearance right now. I usually do anyway, but sometimes it's worse, sometimes it's more manageable. I use substances to cope (nothing too bad, just alcohol occasionally, sometimes Nyquil, and sometimes... something I can't mention here but is a green color). It gets my mind off it. I haven't found anything else that works besides avoiding mirrors or getting really into an activity.
I think I'm hopeless.
I'm sorry, I wish I had something positive to say.
At least it's nice outside. It rained today, it was nice. It made me want French Onion soup.

Thank you, that means a lot.You're a star, Srijita, and I promise you're anything but worthless.
Thank you.
Thanks Beleza, you're pretty awesome too.
Thank you and same goes for you.
Kinda ticked off. I woke up with a intense itch in my foot and arm. It was actually the itch that woke me up. Something bit me, and I have no idea what.. There were lumps but they're almost gone. It was one of those itches that feel borderline painful.
One of the many reasons I loath parasitic insects.

I can see why people go on a shooting spree,I mean most people suck,I am not a saint,but at least I regret when I do bad things,try to not do it again,I would really like to bash someones face with a hammer and be done with this right now,how can someone be so cruel?
It wasnt even with me and as usual girls love him,people love him,dont fire him, I dont understand,someone like this can do whatever he wants and get away with,and if someone goes there and bashes this ****er they will still get punished.

Funerals should be a celebration of the deceased's life, not a diatribe of how much they've sinned and such. If that was the case, priests would run away from my funeral! I understand your anger, as it's probably not a proper way to farewell someone.
Aw, I'm sorry. *gives BlueDays imaginary soup*I have the flu real bad.

I still think you're quite attractive, but I know these are just words and don't really do much for you, but that's still how I feel.

*devours Mikey's soup* mmmmmm, delicious. Thank you.
And don't forget to eat some oranges and other fruits with vitamin C in it. Plus the juicy fruit might feel nice on the sore throat.

Hie yer hence from me heath!
Truth be told, I'm utterly fed-up with having to please people all the freakin' time. Part of me, personally, couldnae give a flyin' f**k about being social sometimes. Havin' tae f***in' ingratiate yerself with boring people all the time. People who'll have ye bored s**tless!
I mean, I'll pretend tae fake an interest in stuff I couldnae care less about. But honestly, in ma head, I'm saying tae myself: Ach, just f**k off, would ye?! - but ya can't say that, can ya? And, is it so f***in' wrong tae be someone who doesnae talk much?
Sorry, just had tae get that thought out ma head.

It's so sad to think i'm gonna spend my stupid life alone =(
*&!# fear. I can't make friends. I just dont connect. It does not work!
I had a gf 2 years ago. A MIRACLE! And i had to break everything =,(
It's not going to happen again...
I'm already old... Time for that is running out. Sigh...
It's just that girls scares me so much.
I think in the end it's just a fear of rejection.
But knowing the source of the problem doesnt help a bit.
I'm always so self conscious. Fearing so much to look like a fool. Because of that i cant have fun anymore. I never do.
This kind of life is just so sad...
I know i am not alone living that.
I wish we were not that way.
Good luck to you all

I'm sorry, I understand the fear of rejection but I guess the only way of overcoming this fear is to face it. I know its definitely not easy though. Maybe just keep trying despite of feeling self conscious, I hope things get better.
