I have an embarrassment of riches. It's not 100% perfect but I'm pretty fucking lucky.
The town is preparing for the big annual Trivia contest. It starts Friday and runs for 54 hours straight. My team is ready . Then next week, we have a derby bout in Eau Claire. I should really make a stop while I'm there.
Oh yeah. Bitter or not, I've been pretty fricking lucky.
Skipping yet again (is a daily skip anything like a skim?) because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is beth b's birthday.
Happy birthday, beth! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
Ooh, I remember you talking about that contest before, Cash! Fun! Let us know if we can help.
I am not that bitter or depressed right now. But I've been both before and can envision being that bad, even if I havent actually been that bad. (hoping that sentence doesn't end with "yet")
do you ever think the bitter will just eat you inside out?
I have been there, yes. It is not a fun place to be. But I'll echo what both beth and Burrell said, as they both said it far better than I ever could.
Also, on Pottermore, I am HawthornKnight7121. I just sent a bunch of friend requests out. Does anyone know if there is some way to tag profiles or friends so I can remember who is who?
Oh yeah. Bitter or not, I've been pretty fricking lucky.
Me too, very. I'm not bitter about the present, but I still have bitterness about the past, which bleeds over. I'm working on it.
Why I like my co-workers: when someone brings in donuts, there is not a single whine of "Do you KNOW how many CALORIES are in that?!?" or "I don't eat ANYTHING with carbs!" or even "I want one, but I'm trying so hard to be GOOD."
No, instead there is a flat-out stampede to the kitchen and schemes hatching to get the last jelly-filled donut.
Just when you thought penguins couldn't be more cool, one bites Newt. [link]
"Take that, global warming denier!"
I'm going to call this a positive story, since we all know such people exist, but even in the most conservative state of Australia, their attitude is apparently no longer politically acceptable: [link]
Edit: actually, just one criticism: the paper described it as an anti-feminist rant. It was anti-women.
