Dana: I hate it when that happens. Congratulations on surviving the encounters with the movers, and may the rest of the day be better.
Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My brain isn't typical, and while H knows it, he doesn't get it. So when I ask a question and he begins a lecture on the etymological history of a facet of what I just asked, I want to punch him. Just.Answer.My.Question.
No offense, but that sounds pretty typical to me.
In the context of everything else you have told us, Gud, this is part of a very disturbing pattern. You are way too hard on yourself and it sounds like you are not the only one. I hope y'all can straighten things out.
How's your daughter doing, Gud?
Thinking about current events on the board, I just wanted to apologize for anything I've posted that might have made people uncomfortable. My social skills are not very strong.
Gud, you've never made me uncomfortable.
I also want to apologize for any posts that have made people uncomfortable or annoyed. My social skills aren't the greatest, but they've improved a lot in the last 15 years, largely due to hanging out here.
I have a feeling that in the last seven years (after the Great Bedbug Fiasco of Aught-nine) there've been times when I've been excessively whiny, selfish and self-centered here. I'm sorry for that. Trying to be a good person takes work.
I would argue that there have been times when you've had a lot of shit going on, and that is what we are here for!
Note that most of what anyone says is about themselves most of the time anyway.

Seconding this. The medium is heavy on self-expression.

Yup. Me too. :)

This this this.
I'm at the Melbourne airport with Lee. We're flying to Cairns this morning where we'll be see the Great Barrier Reef.
Yesterday we saw koalas, kangaroos, parrots, cockatoos, and a kookaburra in the wild. Several parrots sat on my head and made me their personal jungle gym.
shrift, I am totally jealous of your and Lee's adventures.
I always feel like it's mememememe all of the time when I post. Between venting about Rob, then his death, followed by the out-laws from hell and the clusterfuck that was his estate, and my miserable job, and my family, and my cat, and me... yeah.
