There are lots of people who I don't hear from for days on end that I don't worry about. That may say more about me, though.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I sometimes worry that I am so independent, if I died in my sleep, it would take too long for people to notice and come rescue Cagney.

Though Cagney might be well fed . . .

This has actually crossed my mind...and frankly, I'd prefer that to him starving...but he sleeps in a crate. He couldn't get out, or even bark out the window!

Next time you feel sickly, unlatch his crate.

Maybe some Rube Goldberg-ian contraption hooked up to your alarm clock - if it goes off for x amount of time without you turning it off, Cagney's crate gets opened (via a mousetrap, bowling ball, lit match, etc.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I hate dealing with stressed-out students. I feel really bad for them, but with one student this semester in particular, just talking to her takes so much energy, because I have to keep constantly calming myself down, because it's like her stress is contagious, and I get really stressed out just from talking to her. By the time she's done talking, I just need to go somewhere quiet and relax and breathe for a while before I can do anything productive.

maybe they need better friends than me.
I think you are, at best, looking for the word "different", but might also be looking for the modifier "in addition to" somewhere up in there. No one needs only one sort of friend, do they?
Totally this.

My mom sent me donuts for my birthday. The place she sent them from, Vegan Essentials, has continued their streak of sending me a bunch of random stuff in addition to whatever they were supposed to send me. This time, it was three packages of vegan salami and one package of vegan turkey. Um. I guess sandwiches for lunch for the next few days? I think I liked it better last time, when I ordered cheese and got some chocolate coconut bars.

I got a Groupon for a company that does boxes of gluten-free foods, a different bunch of stuff every month. They managed to send me 2 boxes, and I offered to return one, but they told me to keep it. Score! Relatedly, coconut chips are really freaking good.
