How are you feeling?

Cold, tired, blah, the usual.

Had a work performance review at work, and it went well, the boss was happy with my work. Kind of shot down my squealing negative voice down mid note. Plus I have 9 months extended leave next year. Feeling much more positive today.

Happy for you!

9 months extended leave is dreamy, too. Is this a paid vacation type of thing then?
I would be worried if I took that much time off I would never go back though...

People live too long nowadays. I think our usefulness waynes seriously at about 30. Things made more sense in the "life expectancy arena" when people only lived to 30.

Nobody likes or respects older people anymore. Not saying it's right, just pointing out the obvious. Plus, old people are stubborn, ugly and just plain irritating...did I mention they smell weird?!

We should all should die at a set date like the half-human robots in Blade Runner.

I feel stupid. I just did something I instantly regretted. Sigh.

Just did this the other day. Yep. Stupid move. Oh well. It only matters as much as we dwell on it though.

Thanks Molly.

Yes it is fully paid leave :applause:. If I can make money outside work, like selling some of my photos, maybe I will not need to go back. Although the boss said, when you come back, you can do this task. So I'll still have a job if I want it.

I don't know whether to feel more angry or hurt. Im sick of giving people my everything and being hurt and abandoned in return. I wish i could just stop feeling.

Ah know that feelin', Loyal. And am no just sayin' that, either...

Ah've hud many a person in ma life hurt an abandon me after investing some much of masel' - lettin' ma guard down an that. Though, the folk who huv really hurt me the most are still clingin' tae me like a limpet up a whale's arse.

I feel shy because I haven't been on here for ages and it feels all new again :shyness:

I'm so uncomfortable at work. It's making me miserable. Everything is, actually. I want to disappear.

^ Me too. :sad:
I just get remotely comfortable with "knowing" what to expect from the people there, then a new person comes in and then me being on egg shells around them until I figure out what they are capable of - in terms of inflicting damage - is so mentally draining. :/

That was heartbreakin'...

Another month, and ma life will be forever change - for better or worse.

Ah just don't know whether ah should use ma time in hospital to start plannin' ahead or no? And start removin' family members from ma life who huv, either, been a burden or negatively impact my physical an mental well-being. Ah mean, would that be wrong?

Mind you, it must be great growing up in a family where yer parents appreciate an treat you with the same love an respect as yer siblings.

No it wouldn't be wrong. I believe if you allow negative people to be in your life their negative energy will impact on your life. You have to decide if you want to continue to live putting up with them affecting your life in a negative way.

I mean, are you happy with them doing that? If not do you have the power to change it?

I made changes some years ago and cut a lot of negative people from my life. I have never regretted it.
You seem like a nice guy who - like a lot of people on this site- only wants to find some happiness and contentment. I hope you can find the inner strength to make the right calls for you. Good luck mate.

I was planning on going out tonight to a Halloween-themed comedy show, but I'm so exhausted from today that I'm thinking about staying in and probably going to bed early as I've been up since 5am. I don't really want to deal with drunk weirdos either.

Yeah! Stay here and deal with us non-drunk weirdos!
