I'm finding that ice cream is pretty soothing when I'm feeling down. I'm eating coffee ice cream, my favorite.
^Yup, ice-cream sooths everything! :thumbup:
My fav. is peppermint choc chip.

I hope you don't feel so down tomorrow, Jasmine.

I've never had that flavor, it sounds really good. Thanks BlueDays. I'm just going through something difficult right now, but it should pass.

How do introverts actually handle military? I have a friend who's in the military, he doesn't have SA but he's an extreme introvert. He's constantly around people and has four roommates. Even thinking about it gives me the jitters.

I wonder if it's possible to work 15 years trying to reach your ultimate life goal and then realize that you suck at it

I am angry at myself. Yesterday I went back to sign papers for my new position and I told myself beforehand I would push for a higher pay rate. I had all my justifications in line, ready to argue. Instead, once I was in the seat I was overwhelmed with anxiety and just signed the paper because the guy was talking so fast. He said after I am there a month he would put me in the other position that is higher paying. But even for the position I signed for I did not push for the top dollar that I am entitled to. Should I email him back and say something now? It's after the fact and would look silly, and it's only a couple dollars, but it is the principle. Ugh. Plus, is he being a smooth talker and will I even get that other senior position in a month's time? :l

You could contact him and try to get it. The worst he could say is "no". I can't stand it when I'm trying to think and decide and somebody's talking and messing me up. I'd ask for the agreement to move to higher paid position in writing, if they're professionals then it shouldn't be a problem.

I think the potential negatives outweigh the potential positives if you call now and try to fix it. You agreed to the terms, so for the time being, you should probably endure the consequences. It's not all bad if you learn a lesson from it.

I lost my nerve the other day, and I've been kicking myself ever since. :thumbdown:

Why is/was that the case?

An ex contacted me out of the blue the other day. She just wanted someone to talk to since her dog was dying. I would have ignored her (Talking to her tends to depress me since she dumped me) but I have a soft spot for dogs so I listened to her.

Now that she is getting over her loss it's business as usual and she has little use for me.

Have you ever been so tired that you feel like you are sleeping with your eyes open?

It was just one of those days where everything seems to drag. I'm not exactly sure what the reason was for it.

I'm tired of being single. And not having much of a social life. Don't know what to do about the loneliness sometimes.

It's not much consolation, but I'm merely a Viber message away.
