Title: The "Bad News" thread.
Post by: Kobuk on December 16, 2013, 07:21:18 pm
Similar to the Good News thread

..........but just the opposite.

P.S. - This is not a ranting type thread. If you're going to rant, take it to a Livejournal, Facebook, or other website.  >:(



I spent 2 1/2 hours at the dentist trying to get a tooth extracted. They couldn't pull it out. Instead, they had to drill it out piece by piece.  :o And I'm in pain right now.  :'(

After an illness knocked me flat on my back for the best part of a week, complete with vomiting, hallucinations and fever, a cough has settled into my chest and isn't shifting.

I did some more looking into the requirements to transfer to the big university after I complete my degrees at the community college...

Looks like in the past year or so they may have changed the requirement from having taken a 102 level language course to a 202.

Here's hoping an advisor will email me back soon and be able to help clear it up for me. I really hope I don't have to take an extra year of Spanish! At the moment all I have left is three semesters, I don't want to have to squeeze in another two courses  :'(

I spent $20 on a game
It took 18 hours to download
18 hours that I couldn't use the computer and i had to monitor it so it didn't explode or something
FINALLY it downloads....
But the file corrupts a few minutes later...
 and all of that work was for a permanently crashed game and a computer that completely sucks

I have cancer in my spine, multiple stroke, blind in my left eye, deaf in the right ear, dead below the waist, can't tell the difference between death and dreams, memory loss, ifections, constant pain, and the knowledge that I failed in my life's mission.

Everything that made my life meaningful or enjoyable has be diminished. Everyday feels like a life and death struggle, and the worst of all, my mother got cancer and tried to hide it from me.

FFFFFFF...

So far this year I've edited three chapters of a book and two essays (including multiple drafts and outlines) for three different people on FA who said they'd give me art in exchange for my time, since I did/do peer edits at the college and in my classes for people occasionally.

Multiple email exchanges, drafts, advice, "thank you"s, and hours of my time, and then nothing. If they all hadn't specifically posted journals promising art in exchange for my time, and then said again in the emails I'd be compensated for my time, I wouldn't be upset.

Getting told again that "they're sorry but they can't do anything because they're busy in school" isn't what I'm looking for, especially because I'm busy in school as well but still managed to do my side of things :/.

We been hearing this since  1980's  yest no proof.  Hockey stick flaws.  Global warming models flaws. The bad news is more alarmist and demand to push humanity to a dystopian society

There is a lot of evidence for human impacts on the environment, yes it is leading to destruction, but i don't think it really endangers us as a species, just many other species in different locations not frequented by us. Out of sight out of mind is what it seems. You could fill halls with the papers and evidence, and people are welcome to believe what they want to believe, but out of sight out of mind only lets things escalate.

There could be a few reasons for people feeling like this.

Psychological: The consequences of climate change are too awful to contemplate. Therefore, we're denying the issue, as we used to deny monsters in the room by hiding under the blanket. If you don't look at it, it can't look at you.

Economic: The costs of a large-scale effort to fight global warming are too steep to bear. Therefore, we're trying to ignore the issue, or pretending it doesn't exist, or we believe that the economy (including development) is more important.

Political: The fact that Democrats are always hammering on about climate change and Republicans aren't suggests that this is a political issue, not a scientific one. This creates a feedback loop: if climate change were real, why is it so polarising? Because it's so polarising, it must be slightly suspicious.

Epistemological: Why should we believe in climate change? Where's the evidence? All we know is what scientists say, and scientists are sometimes wrong. Then again, scientists also got murdered hundreds of years ago for claiming that the world wasn't actually flat.

Just had someone at work try and "convince" me that they should be getting their room for $50 cheaper than what they're paying at the moment. Yelling, saying the person who took their reservation lied, they deserve free things now, etc...

They stopped once I let them know I could see that they themselves made the reservation at the correct (higher) rate themselves.

This makes the fifth person this week who has tried just walking up and demanding a lower rate because "there must be some mistake". My bet is that some newspaper or talk show put out a list of helpful holiday travel tips that suggests just demanding lower rates from the poor front desk person.

What is it about the holidays that makes people so mean?

I now have two broken teeth. It's been determined that my remaining teeth will all have to be cut out and I end up with dentures. This now unexpected expense means I wont be able to make it to Biggest Little Furcon. I've been putting off getting dentures for a few years now. Not upset about that. Really wanted to go to this con because Kijani Loin will be there. Wanted to personally thank him for his videos. It was his videos that inspired me to look beyond what I initially found about the fandom.

LOL? What's so bad about being a nerd? Although sometimes people get nerd and Geek mixed up. My year 3 teacher said I was a nerd :) I liked that teacher.

Here is my understanding between the differences:
Nerd - An intelligent person.  
Geek - A person interested in science fiction to an extent of being able to recite knowledge and facts about particular programs. (Such as Star Trek).

What the Macquarie concise dictionary thinks:
Nerd - an idiot ; fool
Geek - no definition

Here's what the internet thinks (Google definition):
Nerd - A foolish person who lacks social skills
Geek - An unfashionable person who lacks social skills

I think Nerd and geek are similar. Maybe geek is more to do with computing and Nerd to do with Sci-Fi.

I find Geek more insulting but generally I don't mind if someone calls me a nerd. I think it's a compliment to my intelligence :P According to Wikipedia (Which you shouldn't trust as a reliable source) the word Geek came from the word Geck which means fool or freak in German.

I got 2 hours of sleep last night. It turn's out 100% Camomile tea, which is supposed to induce sleep actually has the opposite effect on me. Instead of making me sleep it makes me stay awake and alert. It's really annoying because I just spent 8 hours lying in bed trying to get to sleep (This has happened to me on 4 separate nights that I've tried it). This leads to me being very tired the next day. I don't feel so tired though because I did get some sleep.

Also, Colds suck. Usually when I get them they can last from as short as 4 days to a month.

Hah. I wouldn't blame you for it not working. It's out of your control. Once when I was given sedative prior to a surgery it made me hyper for a bit. However.. My mum now want's me to drink 2 boxes of Camomile and Afternoon tea that she bought me. Guess I'll just drink it in the mornings or something ^.^ I'll drink some tomorrow. See what happens..

I havent had a cold for a while. Hopefully I won't get any this year. My immune system should be a lot better at dealing with colds now.

Last week a car almost hit me and caused me to go over the sidewalk which caused me to get a flat tire. It costed 85 Euros to replace them, since I had to replace both rear ones, but I had a 5 euros discount, which is nice. It still beats three months ago when lightning struck my pc causing the motherboard to fry and having to replace it and the processor and memory, which came to juuuust over 800 euros.

I changed my office at work, I now don't have to stand the smell of the bathroom, but I have to ... be in contact with other people ... which is bad enough as it is, but it also means I can't use the IRC and I have to listen to the same commercial radio all day. Listening "The Monster"  7 times a day everyday is as maddening as it sounds.

My dad was conned into signing something that he shouldn't so we're getting mail every week to pay up about 1200 Euros. He's checking things with the accountant which has some other cases like that to round them up and make a lawsuit, but it's taking forever and best scenario's probably gonna be costly too. Given that he hasn't gotten a straight salary in years, he's starting to fall in a depression again, which during last one he threatened to stab me while holding a pointy stick, among other things.

I think I'm going mad, and not in a funny, cartoonish way.

Am I doing this right?

Well, I made pancakes today, so I have that going for me, which is nice. They actually turned up rather nicely.

The workload of school is already making me depressed. There's just way too much work work from distance ed. I'm going to have to work my way like a crazy person this year. I'm looking forward to Friday though. I have 3 study periods (2.5 hours of free time with some workload to do) tomorrow and I get to go swimming tomorrow afternoon as my school is going to go to the pool for the next 3 weeks as sport.

It's really annoying though. I have all these study periods at school but I can't do my distance education work since I need access to a windows computer. (I'm doing Software Design and development and none of the computers at school work and it needs to be windows to run the programs) I wish I could re-choose my subjects :/ I would of done history instead.

Edit: I don't know how they have managed to do it but they quadrupled the workload for distance. Now I'm really depressed. It looks like I'll be doing this work on the weekend as well.

I successfully downloaded and installed an old version of the ATI Catalyst driver from the command line. That sounds like good news, and indeed it is, until you realise that nobody should ever need to download and install an old graphics driver from the command line. Dammit ATI, driver upgrades are supposed to fix problems, not create new ones. >:(

FurAffinity United's date/location got announced today. Woo, I can go again! (Last year was my first ever convention, this will be my second. I've been hyping it up ever since the last one ended.)


Oh wait, I'm going on vacation with my family during that time. Q.Q   Something as good as a vacation to freaking Spain is now making me sad. (I do not know the exact dates of the vacation but I'm going to just assume it falls on those 3 days of the convention. boo hoo.)

I don't know when I can afford to get it fixed, so in order to not pay insurance on a car I can't even drive I'm gonna have to register the vehicle as non-operational. Sigh.

It flooded houses near me. It destroyed my backyard, now it's looks like a wasteland.
At the moment, we are hopeless. There is a recession going on, and the flood damage is over 3 million.

I throwing in the towel on buying and selling  on eBay. Ebay change they way they list items on Ebay with the detailed seller ratings and Cassini search which is biased to big  bulk sellers  and expense small and casual sellers . As a result small and  cause sells will find their account blocked form listing not showing up because their SDR, or sell rate is too low. This hurts hobbyist collectors because of smalls and casual  sellers are the source of our collections.

This makes it worst for me because Nakajima is closing a lot  sanrio stores.

asmr (look it up if you don't know) triggers my insomnia just like chamomile tea thing (I tried that previously). It's probably just because I listened to it before bed (I know that if I listen to music before I try to sleep triggers my insomnia). For some reason I'm backwards and things that are supposed to help me sleep keep me awake. I guess I'll just try sleeping without any help. That seems to work the best.

My mum just made possibly the worst meal ever by using a terrible soy milk to make a sauce to go with pasta (The soy milk is the worst I've ever tasted and it was yellow and contained Vitamin D extracted from lanolin, which is sheep's wool. I wish my mum would stop buying products that taste bad.). It was so bad I couldn't even eat it after drowning it with herbs, spices and pepper so I threw it out. My parents are going to very annoyed when they find out. I threw it out when they weren't home..

I think I'll stick to cooking my own meals from now on. At least my cooking tastes good ^.^ Also, my mum is annoyed at me because I said that it tastes bad. I can't say it doesn't because it obviously does. For the buying part of it I've told my mother which brands are the better brands. For some reason she still buys cheaper brands for me to try and then she gets annoyed at me when it tastes bad and I don't like it. it's so damn annoying..

the door nob. like if you were to roll down stairs then hit your head on a door nob it seems like it should knock you out and they only pain you feel is recovering. (which does sound like it hurts a lot)

physical pain isn't really a big problem. being depressed is a thousand times worse....
I'd have to disagree as well as agree. Braces is in the top worst experiences of my life. That and several other things were very painful. I've had a more than generous share of Sickness and surgeries. I couldn't imagine trying to live my life in continual physical pain. Depression is annoying though in it's own way. It's not as obvious as a physical injury and it can leave a person thinking of all the bad things that have happened to them. I know all to well what that feels like and yet I can still imagine that continual physical pain is worse.

physical pain isn't really a big problem. being depressed is a thousand times worse....

I agree. I know what its like to be depressed alot.
But you gotta admit, falling down a staircase and cracking your skull open on a door is pretty bad too.
I've done that :/ yes and no.. I think depression is worse but the pain of an injury can be annoying when it first happens but some do have long lasting impacts.. I think the worst pain I've ever felt would have to be inbetween continually vomiting or having braces. Probably braces.. When I cut my head on a metal door thing I don't actually remember how painful it was. I was crying in the hallway on the floor and went to hospital in an Ambulance.

1. I was knocked out
2. The pain isnt recovering

How bad is it? Try taking some painkillers of Paracetamol.

TODAY:

Went to bed at around 12:30, woke up at 3:00, fell back asleep at 4:50, woke up at 7:20, went to welding class at 8:00, got out at about 10:00, arrived at Foster's Freeze (burger place) at 10:10, my friend ditched me at 10:20 because i refused to go fishing later today, get home at around 10:45, log onto Furtopia at around 10:55, post this at 11:05.

I can only wonder where to day is going to go.  Feels pretty bleak to me.

I couldn't sleep last night, so I was tired in the morning.  I headed out to take my final exam, but on the way I realized that I forgot to put on shoes, so I went back, put on shoes, and headed out again.  I arrived at my exam and realized I forgot to bring any materials at all, so I ran to the bookstore and bought pencils and some soda. x_x

I hurt my spine (lower back) last week on Friday. Probably had something to do with running up to and jumping of rocks or seeing how far I can jump from a ledge on the side of a building :P Idk..

Anyway... my back hurts and my movement is limited a bit and I'm getting annoying muscle spasms occasionally where there is pressure on the area. I'm not going to see a doctor because honestly I don't want my mum being annoyed because she has to pay another doctors fee as well as I don't think it's serious (although I'd probably have to pay the fee since I'm over 18 now). It should heal within 4 weeks ^^ The pain is annoying but it's manageable and I'll take some paracetamol before going to bed.

Edit: after 4 days the pain has gone. yay :D

I tried this new stuff that was meant to help smooth my hair and treat the split ends (years of bleaching and dyeing). Instead it's turned my hair into greasy crap.
Glad I'm planning to cut the whole lot back dramatically shorter and start wearing wigs instead for special occasions.

We forgot to set the alarm -- or turned it off and went back to sleep -- or something, and so we overslept by two hours this morning.  And my daughter had a field trip today.  So, when I woke up, I had to rush like crazy to figure out where the field trip was at and drive her out to meet them so that she wouldn't miss the whole thing.  She did miss out on riding the bus, though, and she really loves that.  So, it was sad.  I'm planning to let her choose between being taken out for frozen yogurt, ice cream, or cake after school.  It doesn't make up for causing her to miss out on part of her field trip...  But, hopefully, it'll...  I don't know.  I feel really bad for letting her down.

She was pretty sad as we drove over to catch up with the field trip, but once we caught up with them, I think it all went okay.  By the time she came home from school, all was good again.  Thank goodness.  I'm just glad that it was the sort of field trip that it was possible to catch up with.

he has never really stabbed me, i just got poked hard enough to get a small bruise, and is tazer isn't illegal he read up the laws and went right near the edge of them.

he was "suicidal" a few years ago till he got medication. he is constantly saying that if he ever does kill him self he is going to take others too and im the first (reason i just started to lock my door) he laughs about people dying, and doesnt see what is wrong with it. im really surprised that some one like him arose from the same living conditions i grew up in.

that kid believes he was depressed before his medication, it was all ways just talk of suicide, never to the point of dying that night. and he complained the most about work from school even tho he barely got any. now that i think back to it my life was hell. he beat me up all the time, i had completely no friends, many people hated me, he told lies to my parents to get me in trouble, he was never nice to me, i was getting more work than him, and i had nobody (only bothered me in the past 2-3 years)

i have been close to a night being my last, he has never been close. the only thing that was keeping me alive was thinking about how my parents would feel, and the hope of a better future. but i was still living through all that crap and i just held on.

i am glad that i never made that stupid decision. would have never found this community, and would have never found Sciex.

woke up to see a plastic bag with a dead squirrel in it on the kitchen table. apparently my brother found it in the back yard and my dad put it in a bad to get rid of it. but that is not the bad thing, the bad thing was that my brother was playing with it...... he took 2 paper clips and stuck them into the squirrel (was all ready dead) and then started to shock it with his tazer.... (to see if it twitches)

just if i were awake i could have stopped him.... my brother is so messed up....

I know have to finish an Assessment at home (an annoying one that requires me to download software and watch long boring tutorials) :/

My sore throat turned into a cold and I had a really bad day. I'm sick of annoying people asking "What's wrong" and intruding on my personal space when all I want to do is be alone (or at least away from them). This person was purposely annoying me though.

Um, I'm pretty sure that the person I live with can ether see my internet history on my iPad through his Mac, or he can see how and where I use my email... Because his wife said to me when I mentioned talking to people on the internet "who, furries?". I already told her I'm not a furry. So if that is actually the case, now they know. I really hope it's impossible though...

Even if you lose your appetite you should still eat (a well balanced diet) or find out why it is that you have lost your appetite. Also make sure that you are drinkining plenty of water.

Yep. I know that feeling as well.

My dad doesn't understand that I have insomnia even though I've told him so many times. I even showed him this website: http://sleepfoundation.org/sleep-topics/teens-and-sleep where it says that it is unnatural for teenagers to sleep before 11pm and he just laughed at me. :(

He want's me to get off my computer at 8pm which leaves a gap of 3 hours. The way he says it to me isn't really nice either. Manipulative as usual. >.>

tmy dad looked through my computers history and the jig is up :o

though i have face the wrath of my father i still havent been scanned for everything but i've faced the worse. he saw my omegle page fur affinity memorabelia page nearly everything [game over man game over]

he found on youtube "what is a furry"

so i got busted for alot this week he broke me :(

i explained it and showed him the video "what is a furry by mystic fox"

but then made seem like a joke and was just messing around about [oh you in a fox suit] or [the what does the fox say?] (it is so dam annoying)
now i dont know what he thinks of it my mother didnt get it but my dad..... i just cant tell

but otherwise all my secrets are out, my computer is now gone and i now have to type with this tiny 3ds screen but i may need help on this :goldsad:  :(

 it's not too bad if people know you are a fur, it can be annoying at first but they get used to it. just today 4 kids in one of my classes looked at my facebook account and found out i was a fur. they were laughing a lot at first for some unknown reason, they dont even know what furries were. ah well i maybe able to explain it to them tomorrow.

but if i was in that situation with my dad i would yell at him and not keep back my bad language. it seems a little harsh but i'd try to make them completely regret doing what they did and not want to ever do it again.

Errrmmm well parents went on another of their half-hour screaming fests, because I committed the shocking offence of:

Daring to make myself a cup of tea without making them one even though they didn't ask.

Such a horrible crime, I know.... they'll take any bloody excuse.

Much more of this and.... results that are undesirable for all involved... will occur.

Plus, any day on which you have to take out four people just to protect a friend can certainly be described as bad.

try to talk with your dad how he shouldn't be picking through your stuff like that and if he doesnt care just put passwords on your stuff.

i still dont really see how they found your password.... i dont enter my password if anyone is within like 10ft, and i usually throw a blanked over my head when i do, and i never tell any one my password or even hint it, if your parents asked for it dont give it, punishment is always better than getting personal information taken. also the history you can clear, if you have parents like that it's best to clear your history often.

also what did you do to get your stuff taken away?

 someone tried to fight me, I put him in a martial arts hold and said if he tests me again and punches me, that I would reverse the way their arm is bending (break his arm), nobody has messed with me EVER since. It was a little bit overkill, but he was asking for it by just punching a martial artist like a coward in the back with no warning. I grabbed his arm, twisted it, windmilled him by the arm, nearly smashing his face to the ground and then threatened him holding him in the position in one arm and a knife hand strike ready in the other. He nearly cried like a little baby. I kinda ruined his reputation because he was a popular athlete though. I got in no trouble whatsoever, and didn't even get a referral because he threw the first blow. Sucks to be him. Just a random story kinda related. (A knife hand strike isn't a knife, it is when your fingers are straight and stiff and by someone on the neck to knock them out instantaneously).

Was it really necessary to get into a fight over losing a MTG card? Nowadays, you can pretty much get what you need through Ebay and/or other MTG buy/sell/trade websites. How rare was the card? What was it? Violence never solves anything. It just gets you AND the other person both into trouble.

someone tried to fight me, I put him in a martial arts hold and said if he tests me again and punches me, that I would reverse the way their arm is bending (break his arm), nobody has messed with me EVER since. It was a little bit overkill, but he was asking for it by just punching a martial artist like a coward in the back with no warning. I grabbed his arm, twisted it, windmilled him by the arm, nearly smashing his face to the ground and then threatened him holding him in the position in one arm and a knife hand strike ready in the other. He nearly cried like a little baby. I kinda ruined his reputation because he was a popular athlete though. I got in no trouble whatsoever, and didn't even get a referral because he threw the first blow. Sucks to be him. Just a random story kinda related. (A knife hand strike isn't a knife, it is when your fingers are straight and stiff and by someone on the neck to knock them out instantaneously).

wow at my school if someone attacks you, you can get in trouble too....  years back i got in trouble because some kid was trying to talk to me and i didn't want to talk to him so i just waked away and he told on me. you get in trouble for everything at my school....

and for the bad news i got an F on my bio final...... 57.6% no idea why my she didn't just give us a test.... my presentation was 11:20 minutes too short. tho it's a good grade because i did the whole presentation on my own, where the other groups had 4 people. if my total grade is less then a C ill just tell my dad and get things fixed.

i still find it funny how my last group said that i didn't do any work when they deleted my work.

sooo he traps them in cages and kills them :o x_x

then freezes them and uses their pelt for little trinkets he has his own bar with alot of animal pelts

this month he has killed three racoons one grey fox and a squirrel

he caught a young possum but he let it live

so he's going to make a fox hat
*sigh*

well guess i cant pass up the oppertunity or waste a good pelt so i asked for some animal teeth and a racoon pelt to make a davy crocet coon hat

Low blood pressure (which can cause grey outs), minor visual disturbances and blurry vision are known side effects of the sort of medication I'm on. As long as it's a one off thing, I'm not that fussed about it. I'm due for a full mental evaluation in the next month before I get a repeat prescription for the next year anyway, so I shall bring it up then. But I've been on these meds for two or three years now and this is the first real problem I've had with it, so I'm not too concerned.

I also highly doubt I am on the same medication as your dog :p

Hey guys, I have no idea what you do when you look for a job, but I'm telling you, you best fill out an online application and a couple of days later, show up and talk to human resources. I would not approve the hiring of someone who did not show up in person. If it is a labor position, do not wear a suit, just new clean clothes, shirt with a collar, no ears and tail,lol. Sneakers are ok if they are new looking. Do not ramble on about yourself, listen and show the desire to perform and be a team player.   I am not shy about my being a Fur, however I am we'll established in my career, you might not want to mention Furry for a while. If you have an interview, be there no more, no less than 15 minutes early.   Hope this helps, need more advice, do not hesitate to ask a stinky 'ol Yena.

- Things were going well. I was looking forward to a good weekend and them my family decides to be mean to me on purpose. My sister was doing an online psychological test or something to see how insane she was and my mum did it as well. Turns out they are both abnormally insane. Who would of guessed? They then went on to say that they guess that everyone is slightly bi-polar (they're not, and they also said the tests were inaccurate because of the way they worded the questions makes religious people look insane). I then told them that you can't be slightly bi-polar... basically the conversation went on to "you don't know anything. What would you know about bi-polar" (In which I told them I knew that it was mainly a genetic disorder and that I knew someone who was bi-polar), "Your and idiot, Bi-polar is not genetic disorder", "Well they are not real friends. Internet friends are not friends", "and how would you know that they are not making it up. You have not seen them face to face" (At this point I left the conversation because it was just to ridiculous.)

This is the type of stuff I have to deal with every day. They also said that they are not letting me move out or go to university and I told them that they don't have any control over that.

- I've been unable to talk to an online counselor for the past 2 weeks as their service is not working

- My family is taking care of 2 puppies that came from an abusive family. (From one abusive family to the next!)

Good luck getting that taken care of. I had 2 wisdom teeth pulled long ago and the procedures went fine with no problems. The third wisdom tooth needed oral surgery to remove. Not fun.  x_x

Ugh, I'd managed to put it out of my mind until now, but mine will likely be removed surgically this summer (all four) >:(.  I've actually never had surgery before, so I'm really not loving the idea - but then again, I don't want an abscess either.

I have all of that. (Except, I'm not experiencing it atm) *hugs* I had an awkward chat with my dentist yesterday. He asked me what I was there for and asked if it was just a checkup and I said yes. So I got a checkup and then awkwardly asked him after he was done if he could clean the plaque off my teeth :P

Yeah, it worsens when I don't get to talk to people either on Skype or irl because I am not a person that can cope with things on my own. I was left from people for 5 days and my parents wondered why I slept all day for those days. (If it's really bad I sleep to compensate because I have nice dreams). At the moment I haven't been having much communication through voice, so I'm really lonely at the moment.

I found out that my favorite comedian Rik Mayall died on my birthday, He NEVER failed to make me cry with laughter through the years. It's a shame he's gone, at 56 too. :'(

I was allowed for some reason to watch his foul mouthed insanity growing up, and it never gets old, he's definitely shaped some part of my personality for sure! ^-^

I haven't been rock climbing in 6 months. I finally got the chance to do it this weekend (I finally had break from all my school work) so I invited some people.

My dad saw a bad documentary about furries and has the wrong idea and is very close minded so I can't be part of the group, and might kick me off of here. This sucks, he was saying things like, Oh you're a freak, or that's not normal, or you can't ever be a part of that, I won't let you. So now, I can't get a tail, collar or ears I was so excited for because he decided out of the blue to be a two faced prick. So, if I'm gone from here for a while, you now know why, if he kicks me off of here, I will miss you all, you were all great friends to me, hopefully this isn't goodbye, hopefully. I just hope he stops calling me a psychopath and a freak, it's really starting to hurt my feelings because we are really close. Hopefully this isn't a goodbye. :'(

I'm also having this, but they are being hurtful about it, all if it, even the eating part. All but the 18 part, I'm 14 so I can't do anything about it. If I do, they are just going to use it against me.

For those of you who are not aware, my parents are divorced, though there are no hard feelings between them (thankfully.)  This has almost nothing to do with my bad news, as it's been this way since i can remember.

Anyway, i was feeling great for once a few days ago while i was with my mom's side of the family.  Now i'm back at my dad's, and it looks like i'm going to crawl right back down into my ditch.  It's not living at my dad's, really, it's just that my stepmom's stepbrother (who is also my uncle even though he's only around three years older than me) is staying over until he can recover from a rather tragic incident. (He broke his neck.)

He's also staying in my room.  

Granted, my "room" is a large shed/party room thing with most everything you could find in a small apartment, but there's just not enough room for both of us, i think.  And there have been some issues recently that i'm not going to go into detail about that have me pretty stressed out... a lot.  I try to get along with him as best i can, but really we are just so different in lifestyle that i'm only able to tolerate him because i have no other choice.

So yeah, that's my share of bad news for the day, probably going to carry on for the rest of the week as well.  :)  The good things never stop coming, do they.

----------

My bad news is that the man I live with passively insulted me, completely unprovoked without reason. I didn't realize how to take what he said until later, so it's too late to confront him. Even if I did retort, he would have used that as an excuse to throw more insults at me. And its not even the insults that bother me, it's that I'm too much of a doormat to say anything back and stand up for myself.

If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

.                I am a Christian, but I do not believe the bible word for word. A lot, if not most of it was written by 12th century monks in an effort to control high ranking lords and knights.  I believe in understanding, love and war when it is necessary. Look up Gideon, I like Gideon, the man. He fought and then lived the rest of his life in peace, that's me.

My new flatmate didn't tell me that the oven is a bit busted and you have to turn it off in a slightly odd way. As a result, I didn't turn off one of the burners right, just enough to kill the flame, and it kept pumping gas into the kitchen.

Four hours later, thought something smelled a bit odd. We've ventilated the entire flat out and are being very careful not to light anything for the next little while, but still >.>

turns out that my brother had a stash of candy and ate it on my bed so I guess the bed bugs were biting  :P

so my dad took care of the ants and I had to sleep in the living room  >:(

We had a wonderful barbeque party today, my two friends were there, we played Rockband late into the night, good food, old friends... for once everyone managed to shove all of their responsibilities away for a single day so they could have a good time, a good time that was well deserved at that.

Or at least that's what i'm assuming happened, it's too bad i slept thought most of it.  And right now it's nearly 5 AM...  So it's a good thing i don't have school tomorrow.  I'm really enjoying how this whole "let's go to sleep when you need to be awake" thing is working out, hasn't caused a single problem, probably never will.

Edit:
I just finished cleaning it up. Luckily most of my art is in smaller art books on my desk and this was on a large one on the floor which had a plastic cover. ( however, the pages inside are now sligtly wet near the binder). My cat managed th throw up on an art book, a folder, a set of coloured pencils, a set of coloured pens, my juggling balls, 2 weird university bag things and managed to stain the carpet.

Well.

I had some rather unpleasant computer issues, which have led to me losing EVERYTHING on there. Fresh install of w8 - have to set up drivers and reinstall stuff today.

Some of the stuff I lost was rather important, too. Things that are on a deadline, for example. And projects that I've been working on for quite a long time.


Needless to say, one is not amused.

Well, all these supposed fur friends of mine have made no effort to call, e-mail or text me. I am here at this con by myself and it sucks.  This makes me hate furs now.  I was hoping that this was the one chance in my life to make real friends, but it seems furs are just the same mean 'ol people.  All I wanted was a couple of friends.  Anyway, I think I am done with furs now.  As if anyone cares, right?  I just can't do this again, the disappointment hurts too much.

Are some or all of these friends at the same con you're at right now? People can't always respond right away for various reasons: Traveling, dinner, sleeping, visiting family or friends, job, etc., etc.  Give them some time. ;) And if some of them are at the same con you're at, then just be patient. Maybe they'll seek you out. ;)

All furries are people. Some people aren't reliable, or are mean. Doesn't mean that everyone in a certain group is, and it is rather harsh to tar everyone with the same brush.

If the original people didn't turn out to be that nice, a con is as good a place as any to meet new people with similar interests.

This has happened to me before. I've organised something and then no-one turns up.. I know what that feels like. It could just meant that those particular people are unreliable. However, as Kobuk said. There might be reasons for why they did not turn up.

i drank 5 small cans of soda today, and now we are completely out.... cant stop drinking it and now i badly want more :/ (i think i have a litteral addiction to soda(dont think it's caffeine because i cant soda not coffee)

my school expect me to be up by 10am to go there and pick up my schedule (i sleep till around 11am)

only have 15 more days of summer break then have school. thing i hate most about school is not the useless stuff we are learning but the fact that im tired all the time and can barely stay away in class. oh and due to my school switching to block schedule im going to be stuck in those boring classes for 1.5 - 2 hours which no doubt i will fall asleep and my grades will lower. (need to wake up at 6am go get ready for school and i usully stay up till 12-2am)

Are you riding Amtrak? I've been on a train 8 times already going back and forth to Anthrocon for 4 conventions. The only things you have to really worry about are delays, missed connections (If transferring to another train), and derailments (which is pretty rare). Otherwise, trains are pretty safe. :)

im tired all the time, even tho i get hours of sleep. (hard to say how much since after school i fall asleep wake up a lot) school requires for me to get up at 6am when i dont even want to go there (none of the stuff leads to the career i want)

if you are the owner of the server just jail them, and if they insult you ban them so they can even say anything to you. and when they threaten to hurt you they dont even know where you live (unless you post your address all over the internet)
if you are the owner you can just do it if you want, if it's not your server most servers dont allow that type of behavior.


and for my bad news i have another week of school (followed by 34 more) in which drains all my energy and the stuff i "learn" isnt even useful and i forget most of it/i all ready know it

i did have the power over the server

and i could have done worse things to them

but one thing i always see is someone imprisoning for no reason

just because one has the power doesnt mean they should use it to an extent

but next time i will greaf that guy so hard
he'll wish we never even spawned :goldbloody: :goldpissed:

insult me all you like i've been hurt worse

you sure about that? i live in a pretty expensive and (used to be) safe neighborhood, yet in the past few weeks there has been 2 break-ins, one murdur, and one injured (same time as the murdur) and a few months ago there was a break-in on the house across the street from mine.

my dad mentioned us going to a gun safety course (not sure if he was joking) so we might have a gun in are house, and a bunch of cameras, within a few months (not sure about the gun that much) im kinda against the gun thing tho because of my brother.....

a good thing tho is that iv got 3 more weeks of school till a week off, but after that iv still got 143 more school days, then 2 more years of high school.

do not let depression stop you

if you don't have motivation
then find it, I wake up everyday and don't let one single assignment pass me 8)

Bought Windows 7 OS on Sunday for $150 from Best Buy. Recieved an email today saying my order was canceled and money refunded due to PayPal and shipping issues with USPS.  >:(

Still having problems with my comp hard drive which is really, really aggravating me.  >:(

Got notice from my bank that a check I deposited from a friend who owed me money had bounced, and I got stuck with a $10 penalty fee.  >:( So I can't collect a new check/money from him for at least another 2 weeks.

I am one very pissed husky right now with all my computer/money issues, but especially the comp hard drive issues.  :goldpissed:  I just hope Best Buy doesn't cancel the hard drive I bought for the same reasons.

One of the band teachers at my school died today. He got into a really bad car crash and was in a coma for 3 days before dying, He was one of those really awesome and relaxed guys who never let anything bother them or hold them back. He also was a really good teacher/mentor for a lot of students. Especially for us marching band kids. Rest in peace mate and I hope that you're better off wherever you are. :'(

mojang sold out to microsoft and im having a hard time thinking of greed got to notch or if he just didnt like owning a large company like mojang.

http://forums.furtopia.org/gaming-discussion/mojangminecraft-sold-to-microsfot/msg1006677/#msg1006677

Edit: just remembered that i have a personal statement that i need to write in my english class. they are difficult to write but possible for me, the only problem is what im going to write about. the prompt is "describe the environment that you were raised in (family - school - community) and how it effected you dreams"

i have a few good things i can write, and to me they are pretty good stories but the thing is that they aren't something i want to share with anyone at school. pretty much everything in the past leads to me finding the furry fandom and finding the fandom led to finding my partner.
also if you want a good idea of my past you are going to need more than an essay (also how do you determine what is the largest experiences if they are all linked together?)

got a project on Monday that is due on Friday where i need to make some stupid book thing talking about 8 different philosophers who created theories on atoms. first i have other stuff to do, second i learn nothing from this and have no interest. sadly i have group member so i am meant to write about 4 and he writes about 4 and i feel a little bad since i will not be doing anything on this project.

we were meant to write a personal statement in class and i turned in nothing by the end of the period because i cant think of anything to write. so the teacher will most likely ask me in the middle of class why i didn't turn it in (if he realizes i didn't turn anything in) and i will get a 0 on that assignment

when i got home to try to type up other things on my desk top my word processor wasn't opening up so i restarted my computer and the display isn't working. either a video card error or my screen isn't working going to find out tomorrow after school.

just found out that an hour ago my mom's RV (mobile home) burnt down in the middle of the highway due to the fuel pump malfunctioning (supposedly my mom's friend's friend "fixed" it. before the RV just didn't start but i guess that other guy screwed it up and broke the safety feature on it) it's isn't the RV that matters to my mom or me it's what was in the RV (baby pictures of me and my brother, 2 school projects that i made for my mom, picture of our cousins, and.... my mom's prom date picture from around 1970.. thinking about telling her that it was in the RV too but i am going to feel bad from her reaction)

Edit: the gifts/pictures survived and have some damage but at least they are there.

my mom's grooming van broke down again. one of her friend's friend took it the day before the camper burnt down to "fix" an oil leak in the oil pan but now the oil pan is damaged even more and the air intake is damaged.

waiting for the week end to come so that i can see the damage done to the camper (if they will allow us to go near the wreak) and to try to advise my mom in what to do now.

i find it lovely how school just thinks that people have nothing important to do at home and would rather waste your time with all this useless stuff i will forget right after the test

my dad was suggesting for my mom to move back to Boston with the rest of her family

had to give up 2 of are dogs

the camper/RV/Mobile home (what ever you want to call it) has a fire extinguisher in is that could have easily saved the camper, and make the pictures/gifts less damaged but they decided that they would just jump out and watch the it burn rather than trying to put out the fire. (the extinguisher was meant for fuel fires)

*sigh* well my mom's "friends" might be costing her $20k and a place to live. my mom signed a contract with my dad where it said that if all the stuff was out of the house by september 13-14 she will get payed 20k, and the house still has stuff. my dad is giving her a second chance to get that 20k if she moves out by the end of this week end, and he even offered to pay for movers and another truck (they didnt use the first one he rented for the same reason i am going to explain) but my mom's "friend" for some reason doesnt want the movers to touch his stuff, and says he doesnt want the movers making my mom not want the movers, then telling my dad not to hire the movers. he also is trying to convince my mom that me and my brother were "brainwashed" into believing him and is trying to get are mom not to trust us.

hopefully i can go over tomorrow, and convince my mom to move out tomorrow (as in completely empty the house of belongings) and if chris (my mom's friend) is over there im hoping he doesnt freak out about it. just to be save im bringing something to defend my self with.

After apparently sleeping through several very loud alarms, I woke up 10min before my exam.  Found out my laundry apparently didn't dry properly also, so I had to throw on some wet clothes and bike very fast - only to arrive and be told: "sorry, we can't find your name on the exam list." >:(
Had to show them the confirmation email I got before they would let me take it.  Of course, that meant I had to turn my phone on... during an exam... and then it starts ringing, which is sort of a problem.
Also, I almost got hit by a bus on the way home >.>  The driver made some rather rude gestures at my after that.

After the robbery I had to cancel my trip to Midwest Furrfest. Because I had to cancel my old credit card they sent me a check. Got it in the mail today. Bummed enough to have had to do this. When I opened the check and saw it's for $35 I figured it's par for the corse. The last convention I sponsored at gave me a regular attendee badge. They had to look back into their records to see I sponsored. Be nice if folks who ran things kept better records.  Cut my losses and go on.

just today my step grandfather (my dad's step dad) died in the morning. we might have seen him for thanks giving, and i feel kinda bad that that last time we saw him was about a year ago.

even tho its sad that he passed away at least i don't need to worry about him having something against me if he found out i was gay. (he seemed like the type of person who disproves of gay people)

My dog died. I found her laying down when I went to bring her her breakfast. She usually gets excited when she gets fed but she didn't even get up. I called her name and her leg twitched but she couldn't get up. I rushed to the phone to get someone to drive us to the vet but by the time I got back to her she was gone. She's buried beside the house. My uncle made her a cross to mark her grave. I miss her but to quote a song from the Muppets

"Somehow I Know we'll meet again
Not sure quite where and I don't know just when
You're in my heart so until then

gave up on writing an essay for my english class due to not being able to find any articles online that agree with what im saying.

i need to write argumentative essay about if online friendships are good or bad and i need to use articles to support my opinion. the thing is that im actually neutral about it and i cant find any articles on line about people who are neutral about it and think the same way i do about it.
find it pretty idiotic that it's an essay based on your opinion yet you need to use other people to try to convince people to have the same opinion. the essay is a large part of my final for my english class which my grade is a C.

pretty much nothing is going right in my life right now, stuck in school where im meant to be learning but im not, seen as a kid by many people due to my age (talking about legal status of being a minor), getting pointless assignments in class that are unfair for those who dont like sharing their personal life, and opinions... wished people would just use their minds when coming up with things, i really dont see how all the people around me are such idiots.

Received my end of year school marks which contribute to weather I get into a university. They are fairly good except for my English mark and my Studies of Religion mark. The English mark is probably because my classes average mark was low (which pulled me down). As for the Religion mark it looks as though they have missed marking entire pages. Most of my subjects have a difference of up to 3 points between the assessment and the exam mark. But my Religion exam mark is 20 points lower than my assessment mark...which is ridiculous. So I'm going to have to pay $17 for them to check it, If they made a mistake I get my money back and hopefully they will change the mark.

Farmer's (insurance) has found me at fault for the damage done to the front of my vehicle, and will only cover the damage their party did to the rear bumper, despite the police report being 100% in my favor and their party being ticketed for the entire collision. Looks like it's going to come to small claims court; where their party will not be able to hide behind her insurance or lying husband. -sigh-

being lonely iv got to say is one of the worst feelings you can possibly have. iv been on my own since the beginning of my life. had people i believed were friends but they turned out to not care at all. spent most of my lunches/free time alone for most of my life and my last 2 years of high school are going to be the same. really surprised that im still sane after spending alot of time alone. still feel lonely now but hopefully once me and sciex are together offline it will not be like this anymore

went to a firing range a few months ago shot a 9mm glock, .308 special rifle, and a 12 gauge shotgun. the recoil of the 12 gauge is not as much as i expected it to be, it still was a kick tho. always hear stories about the recoil being very strong. i got to shoot 9-13 shells and it was pretty nice then the next day my shoulder was pretty sore, still was nice shooting a gun.

sadly today i had to skip another 2 homework assignments due to the amount of work. i had around 50 problems asking me things like how many [grams/atoms/moles] are in [grams/atoms/moles] of [element/molecule]. need to show all conversion work and that would take too long. my dad also wanted me to clean out part of the living room so i did that. skipped 2 reports for my electronics class, and something for my math class so im not starting off this year so well

Lol I use 12 guage for hunting all the time, but I keep a recoil pad on mine to help reduce recoil. :P 308 and 30-06 are the same round except 308 is less recoil and smaller casing and 30-06 more recoil but larger casing(both are fun). Also shot my grandpa's 44 revolver love that gun.

still sick even tho i slept alot this weekend, ate pretty healthy food, and took some medicine.

my teacher was talking about a flu going around the school so i might have gotten that, but i got one several months ago so im having less painful symptoms. might be the reason its lasing so long.

for more bad news i have PE (physical education) tomorrow and the next day, and i can barely run due to not being able to breath, and if i dont run then i lose points (and stand out of all the people in class which i dont like getting attention) this cold/flu has been bothering me in class too because i need to bring about 1/6th of a tissuebox to school each day, have trouble breathing, sore throat makes it hard to answer questions the teacher asks, tiredness making it difficult to pay attention. would love to take this time off from school but if i do i need to make up all the work the day after i get back (which includes going to class after/before school or during lunch to pick up things like papers/fill out notes.

find it pretty funny tho, people are constantly complaining that if you are sick stay home so you dont get other people sick..... but the school's way of grading/giving work makes it so you either suffer at school, or be stressed the day you go back. the other funny thing is that iv been around other classmates, and my brother's friends (who sit together every day) and not a single person has gotten sick (also including my family members in which none of them are sick)

Edit: skipped school today (monday) due to not feeling well in the morning, mondays are short day so hopefully i didnt get much work today. if i dont get much work today then thats going to be pretty nice and help boost my moral for the rest of this week.

skipped all week excluding wednesday

I live next to a train line currently, and have been near motorways before. You get used to the noise very quickly, and start to filter it out. I don't even notice trains going past any more.

In bad news, my arm issues are acting up a lot today and I can barely move one arm. While trying to clean my room.

I hit a deer on the way to work on Tuesday, a 10-point buck.  Dragged the big boy to the roadside after calling 9-1-1 and the workplace. As the responding police officer returned my license and registration, the buck staggered off onto the campus of the community college. The officer said I could have the buck if it expired. The car is still drivable and will go into the shop for repairs on Monday.

   After dropping off the damaged vehicle at the body shop, picking up a rental car for the week and returning home, I discover that the claims adjustor has to report for jury duty. Had it not been for the condition of secondary roads from the snow storm, I might have come home first and learned of this and cancelled the rental another day or maybe another week. The body shop and insurance agent had no knowledge of the jury duty notice upsetting the time table laid out on Friday.

  There's no way a new claims adjustor will get there to authorize the repairs so I can have my vehicle back by the weekend. I may have to return the rental and drive my damaged car another week.

While I should know the full story, leaving college can be a very smart idea. I took two years off due to stress and knowing it wasn't the right time for me. I know I'm ready now though. Sounds like you're making the best decision for your health and well-being, which is great.

Found holes in the fur of a couple of my Furbys today. When I'm anxious ( which is often ) I hold them and pet them. Obviously I did this so much I wore holes in them. They have been repaired but I realize if I keep this up they will eventually be bald. So I'm retiring them. From now on my robot dogs will take their place. They're made of plastic. No fabric to wear through when I pet them. I also need to get more robot dogs. I have 23 Furbys but only  three and a half robot dogs. My Poo-Chi is just a head. He had an accident. I've been meaning to expand the collection for quite some time. Now's the time to do it. Thank God for eBay.

for the past few weeks in school 2/6 classes i had Fs in but in a little bit of time its going to go up to 3/6 classes that i have Fs in.
im hope that i can get them to at least a D+ by the end of the year so that i have a chance to graduate, but if i have to retake these classes then that's the end of high school for me. i will still go to school tho due to legal reasons (if i dont my parents get in trouble which causes problems for me)

im not sure how my dad would react to this, hopefully if i do fail these classes ill be able to explain to my dad that i want to drop out.

Somebody that we know very well, has been diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in their stomach. She got the tumor(it was large) removed and is going to undergo chemotherapy soon. She's about 18 and has to put off her college classes, she's doing OK at the moment. It's been hard on their family, let's hope that she beats this!  :'(

Job advertisements are misleading. -_-

Young person with outgoing vibrant personality = Someone with a university degree, a few years of job experience. As for personality it doesn't really matter.

Modern offices = A new office that doesn't even have workers yet

Basically this was definitely not a job I wanted. It was a marketing and business job... So something that does require a degree and experience (another similar one I applied for does not require experience and is not so focussed on capitalism and getting money from people). The manager was also wearing one of those hats from fancy rich schools. And he was wearing it indoors...

I also had a bit of a panic attack before and after the interview. So I think I'll go to my doctor and say that I need medication. (since I've already been to counselling and that's only helped a bit with my social anxiety and other issues)

I lost the "Kadra" from my Nepalese kukri. i was sharpening the kukri today and noticed that it was missing from the sheath.  The Kadra is a small sharp knife used for  cutting smaller things the kukri can't. I still have the "Chakmak", but the sad part is that the whole thing is handmade, so I can't replace the Kadra. It's one awesome (razor sharp) kukri, so I can't complain.

just missed out on a bunch of homework so i guess my grades are going to drop down even more. i really dont understand how no one at my school notices anything is wrong... when someone is failing a class you would usually try to talk to them and try to help them but i guess my teachers dont even care if we get good grades, all they want to do is write those grades down, yet they say they enjoy teaching, and they want to help kids prepare for the future (even the job as a teacher points that out, terrible pay, long hours, dealing with those annoying/rude kids.... there isnt really anything to gain being a teacher)

don't like bad news... having problems with my new iMac. Just one program. Pages is freezing up on me. Spent most of the afternoon and evening on the phone with mac. Still not resolved. Now I have to get an external drive so I can back up everything I have on this new computer. I may have to wipe it clean and start over. Techs say it sounds like one corrupted file that doesn't want to be fixed. The good news is I needed a back up hard drive anyway Something to store all my recordings and stuff on.  I love technology , but we've never got along.... : )

Then got cut up by the sharp rocks on the shore so I'm sore and pretty tired. (It was my friend's birthday)

Sorry for your loss Phinox.

I finally met someone over the weekend. It felt really good to spend most of the day with a woman. Talking together and somewhat enjoying the same things. Ya, this sounds like it should be in the good news thread. First off she's separated. So she's still married. Absolutely Off limits. I wan't nothing to do with cheating or affairs. Not going to happen. All you gray muzzles will understand this. I'm not even going up to bat.  :) As mentioned earlier we 'almost' enjoyed the same things. This woman is bitter. All she did was gripe and rant. And then dead silence. So I'd ask another question. It's like watching a firecracker with a long fuse. Starts out simple enough. Then quickly rushes into a frenzy of anger and explodes. Then dead silence. When she did speak more than a few sentences it was long rants of angry things. Not about family. Rants about things she did or was involved in, or apart of. In any case it centered around being angry. In truth I spent time with her out of nostalgia. Just the idea of being with  someone rather than wanting to be with the person your with.

Still lonely but not desperate. Not all rats are the bad guys.

Whelp, I went and got myself banned from another forum. Well to be honest I don't know if I'm banned yet and I never will because I don't intend to go back. Long story short on a therian forum I was subject to harassment by one member because I had difficulty pinpointing an exact species. I said some things I'd be banned for here if I repeated them.
I'm done with the whole therian/other kin thing. There are decent ones, sure, but there are also tons of judgemental holier than thou scumbags and frankly it isn't worth enduring the jerks to socialize with the good ones. I think Furry fits me better anyway.

Spent $100 on a robot dinosaur. Got it home, charged it up and ran it once. It promptly fell apart. Turns out the only thing holding it together was string which promptly snapped causing the overpriced piece of junk to fall to pieces. Fortunately I was able to get my money back. But I had to lend most of it to family who needed groceries. I did manage to snag a new robot dog bringing my robot pack up to eight.

I don't know if it's similar in the UK, but in the US most companies have an Employee Assistance Program with a number you can call. They either do what they can for you then and there or they might hook you up with a few therapy sessions, free of charge.

No one should go through that kind of grief alone, and maybe talking to someone can help you work through it.

Best wishes.

I don't know if they do here, I'm officially unemployed. The occasional bits of work I do are voluntary - I'm not an actual employee. And due to the large amount of unemployment and mental health issues, free counselling services here have a 6-12 month waiting period.

so yay... wonder how long its going to be till someone does something about this terrible set up of an "education" system.

Yep school starts for me next Wednesday, I'm getting prepared to be scared and shy, I'm sometimes terrible at making new friends. I know nobody at the school I transferred to. Perris Union decided to not let my interdistrict transfer go threw, so I have to go to a different school. ALL my friends are at my old school, plus the school is super religious(private school, go figure  :P ) and well I'm agnostic. So that makes it worse.

I drove over two hours non-stop to get to camp last Saturday for my model rocketry thing. Discovered that 2/3s of the field we fly from is filled with construction equipment. Only two kids signed up for the class, and the other instructor is in pain from injuries suffered in a boating accident one week sooner.  Staff could not find us an adequate launch site anywhere else on base. We had to drive 5 miles away to launch in a schoolyard and only did 1 launch. A similar thing happened to me in 2000. It seems that each time a milestone is reached, something happens to foul it up.

The course should have been canceled.

^same problem i got 3-4 quizzes or tests this week and an essay that i had to do over my birthday (3rd full week of school) all ready failed one of the quizzes sadly, and the essay that i typed up i lost motivation (i wanted to at least do something i wanted on my b-day) and the paragraphs became short and scrabbled, so i might get a bag grade for that.

also one of my teachers gives candy, and a note for a student's birthday but i guess she didnt notice that it was my b-day over the weekend so i didnt even get acknowledgement of my b-day. (not a big deal but a little disappointing)

she acknowledged that it was my birthday today so im fine with that now

That really sucks, but I think if I had a huge essay to do on my birthday, I would probably do something fun instead.
But hey, look at it this way. In a couple years, you won't even remember that essay nor the grade you got on it. That's something that always helps me when I get upset over bad grades :)
Speaking of bad grades, I got a 67 on a math quiz last week. The teacher said, "oh don't worry, this quiz is SUPPOSED to be hard." Everyone did horrible. Now I have a C in the class.

She's 14 years old, so it's only a matter of time until she passes, but she's in a lot of pain. My mom wants to put her down so she doesn't suffer for as long, and I don't know how to feel about it. Either way she's gonna pass away soon, but I'm torn on whether I would be sadder if she suffered through it all or was put down before her natural time.

So my school's Homecoming dance is in about three weeks, and I had two girls I had my eye on that I really wanted to ask, and I figured I wouldn't have to ask super early considering they're not exactly "popular" compared to the other girls in my school.

On the day I planned to ask the first girl, I saw on her Snapchat story that she had already gotten asked by someone else. This was news to me, but apparently everyone else knew but for some reason didn't think to tell me. That was fine, I suppose, because it eliminated my conflict about which girl I wanted to ask.

Then, later, as I sat next to the other girl I wanted to ask, she began talking to someone else about what her group was planning to do before the dance. Come to find out: she had already been asked too, and again, nobody wants to let me know about this stuff. Now I just have to go alone, but at least I'm going with my friends :)

power saw + leg = something really bad...

ended up cutting my knee open today... was using a power saw, let go of the trigger, pulled it back but it turned out the blade was still spinning... caught onto my pants pulled closer and sawed into my skin. luckily it was the front of my knee (harder to damage) and the blade didnt get to my bone. ended up getting 3 interior stitches, and 6-9 exterior stitches, with and estimated 2 weeks for recovery. cant believe my luck....

for those who read this please take extra caution when using power tools... its really not fun

Will have to return two pair of cosplay paws purchased on Ebay at my expense. It was $4.50 to ship each pair to me, about $2.50 each to return. I don't care much for the return arrangements, so will just purchase postage at the post office.

Asked questions before purchasing. The vendor clearly doesn't know his product. These are meant for children and do not fit large adult hands. Negative feedback will be forthcoming.

Maybe I should just keep them and give negative feedback. Hopefully recoup some of my investment by selling them at a furmeet. Not many furmeets here however.

Had a guy on my shift last night come in, being very... odd. Bouncer then sees him doing something outside which gives him resaon to ask the man to wait outside so the bouncer can watch him calm down. Guy refuses, get loud and aggressive, then turns his anger on me. Bouncer draws aggro, I call the managers and another member of staff, while the guy is threatening legal action against the bouncer, myself and the club. Not that he has a leg to stand on, we have cameras (proving there was no violence against him) and the rules of the evening state that the bouncer and I can independently refuse people entry for any reason we want.

Poor bouncer then had to do a multi-page write up of the event while still on door duty, and the police turned up to have a quiet chat with him out front.

teacher ended up contacting my parents due to my grades, luckily my dad didnt show much attention to it...

tho im most likely going to have a meeting with the teacher, and staff which is going to be a very uncomfortable situation for me. the teacher is also going to try to pull me into class during tutorial (free time where you are meant to get work done) so that she can "help motivate" me and so i can "get work done" tho even if she does im too damn tired to work on anything, and just throwing more work on me isnt going to motivate me, it's just going to make me forget about all the work stacking up.

due to this iv been stuck on the issue of deciding weather to just forget about school or to actually try to pass(unlikely). my family expects me to pass high school with my mom constantly saying that im going to end up like her (homeless, lack of money) if i dont make it through high school which has just been getting annoying.

other then that iv got completely no idea on how to climb out of this mess, and where to even start out in life in terms of getting a job, living place, ect.

Gelby had bad sheds long before I got her, and had enough stuck around one toe that it was very constricted. It was unsavable.

She shed last night, and cleaning her I found specks of blood in her hide. Her toe fell off during the shed.

I'm keeping an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get infected, and keeping her on clean paper towels. But she's moving okay, probably will just be a bit sore for a little while.

also looking at how many things are different for those who graduated last year (my brother's grade) the people i sat with during lunch which were actually pretty entertaining (after they got to know me) but they are all ready living out of their parent's house. turns out 2 kids my family knew years ago are gay and my family is kinda surprised (not negatively) but im still in the closet...

And this is why I almost never buy from Evil-bay.  :P A person should always do their research first and check out the seller and customers who have bought from him/her. If a deal is too good to be true, then it probably is.

Bought a new shaver at an odd lots type store. When I got it home and unboxed it, the cutting head was missing. I had to return to the store and exchange it.

I was playing my drums today, and after three years of pounding it to heck, I finally ripped my snare drum head. It wasn't even on a song that I was hitting it hard. Maybe I just hit the sweet spot. Anyway, this means I have to wait to play again until a new head comes in, which won't be until next week. :(

Yep, university is not fun. i dropped out of uni and then unsuccessfully looked for a job for many months.

My bad news for the day is that I accidentally just sold an item on ebay with free postage.

What I wanted to sell it for: $20
Postage: $13.40
eBay fee: $0.98
Final value fee: $1.98
Money left: $3.62

beginning to feel like i should run away from home due to how messed up everything is...
hell i barely passed 9th grade, i failed 10th, i am failing 11th, how would i even expect to get a job being terrible at handling simple classes, and schedules... might as well get used to being without a home, with limited possessions, being on my own, early since i'll most likely end up in that situation no matter what i do. could take advantage of the free food and shelter of my family for now, but if i just stopped trying in school the whole damn thing about high school being easy and if you fail it then something is wrong with you(since im the minority yes something is wrong with me), makes me want to avoid people who know me. annoying thing about running away tho is that i have my own doubts on my self, and plans like where would i sleep, what to do if i get in trouble, where would i get food, what direction would i head, should i leave/take my dog, ect.

highly unlikely that i'll do that but (since ill most likely take advantage of my family till i get kicked out) just more annoyance of what my future might be...

you probably won't ever, turkey hunting or scouting is very hard. They have very good eyesight, and most of the time when you go turkey hunting you have to wear full camo. Even the gun your using(if you're turkey hunting) has to be camouflaged.

I was in a blind fully dressed in camo for 3 hours, I've watch them in my area before, they have a routien, and part of that is to stop and drink at pond where I set up my blind, they normally come around 7 and I stayed there till 9 and still nothing...

we rented bicycles today and rode around for a bit. for some reason after getting back to the hotel i started experiencing alot of pain on the left side of my chest, slept for a bit and it hurt a little more, went out for dinner, then walked around for a bit, then we went back to the hotel because it hurt quite a bit (it hurts alot more when laying down which is what im doing right now)

no idea what is wrong but if this pain continues i might have to go see a doctor here (the 6 hour drive would be too uncomfortable for me)

Tried to paint a model part the same color that I painted the deck of a model ship. Problem is, I forgot what color I used for the deck, so now I have to go through 2-4 bottles of paint to find the right match. Second problem is, it's been nearly a year since I last did work on this model, so figuring out the right paint color could be problematic. I never wrote anything down.  :-[  :-[  :-[

had another annoying day at school today.
first in English class i had a writing plan thing for an essay but i barely had any of it done, after the teacher saw that she said something about it being disappointing (messed up my motivation a bit, and made me feel worse)

then in spanish class we had a "exit ticket" thing where we would do a few problems and she would check them to see if they were right before we left. for once i actually tried to do some work and when i went to get the checked she just circled 4/5 of them and said "these are wrong, but i dont know what to say." the way she said it made it seem like she thought i was just being lazy and the reason i did those questions was just to get out of class. (which is kinda true but i actually tried)

but yay just teachers starting to show attitude towards me for not doing work.... if they are going to behave like that i dont even see why i should try

Some STEM kits provided to educational groups may include Calypso RC electric-powered gliders. These will have to be registered. Those Li-Po batteries could have issues when charging. My group has had one for nearly 2 years. It has yet to fly. Our RC plane expert is seldom available to set up a fly day as he works Saturdays during the Summer months. I won't touch it for fear of damaging it. The trouble with RC planes is you may have to travel some distance to find a suitable area to fly. Our "expert" would have us drive to a neighboring county to use his club flying field as they have an FAA waiver.

The annoying kid once again bothered me all during class despite me telling him to stop. He tries to be funny by annoying me.

Also, I have a "salon" in my history class on Friday. Basically, to study the European Enlightenment/Scientific Revolution, each kid in my class is assigned a person to do research on, then we must type a fact sheet, dress up as the person, and have a group seminar with the other history figures for the whole class period. This wouldn't be that bad if our teacher actually TOLD us what to do; she keeps giving vague answers about what to know, what to wear and what to bring, so my whole class is very underprepared. I'm a bit stressed. Why couldn't I have just turned in my fact sheet and not bother with dressing up as Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II? >:(

also my mom is moving back to the east coast for financial reasons (thanks to all the people in silicon valley, jobs are hard to come by, and this area is very unforgiving) there goes the only person here that doesnt flip out about the whole failing high school thing..
im most likely going to have the same thing happen to me once i move out, so lets all congratulate the people here for pushing people away from their home.

so at first i had no idea what the hell im doing/what to do... well now i get to deal with my dad who most likely doesn't like the whole not dealing with high school thing, and the annoyance of knowing my dog is alone while im at school.

My home furnace is acting up lately. Could be the warmer weather, or I need to blast some compressed air/electrical contact cleaner into the control box. The latter of the two would mean shutting off the pilot light as it's a flammable compound. Usually, I just whack it a few times with a plastic mallet and it fires up and runs fine for a few days.

and for the bad news.

Just a day or two ago while walking to the store with sciex (holding hands) some guy in a truck drove buy and yelled "you * (offensive word for gays)" so i guess we got to deal with the hate for the first time (or at least first for me).
and now all of the sudden i would really like to purchase a ballistic/stab proof vest... (i have pretty bad anxiety/worrying issues which i refuse to take medicine for so i try to find other solutions)

I am now almost/completely in a "I'm done with this" attitude when it comes to school. skipped Thursday, and Friday to spend those days with sciex. lied to my dad Thursday said i was sick, said i didn't feel like going to school on Friday, and he let that by.
He said that i have to go to school on Monday but i really don't feel like going. two things can happen either i go to school, or i will just continue to ditch school and possibly start fighting with my dad.

And of course with Sciex having to go back to Canada due to work, and that he isnt allowed to stay in the US due to not having any Visas. hopefully ill get to be with him again soon...

Came down with a cold earlier this week. Also, my sump pump stopped on Monday, flooded the basement in several inches of water. Then again this afternoon, with 1-2 inches. Sprayed the switch with electric contact cleaner, and the pump seems to be running okay for now.

Welcome to the fandom, you'll be scarred at some point.

A favorite item of mine was busted, but it's repairable. Just mad that it was broken in the first place.

Plus my bf broke up with me.... So there's that.

Also, we have a history chapter quiz on Thursday. Now I have to read and take notes on 10 pages each night for the next three nights.

Ordered 8 DVD's from Amazon days ago. When they finally arrived and I picked them up yesterday, I saw that one DVD did not have any shrink wrapping on it. When I opened the case (Stargate Atlantis, Season 2 collection), all 5 discs were missing in the case.  :o There was no damage to the box that everything was packed in. Rather than reorder and wait for a new volume, I just went to B&N and picked up Season 2 today.

I am so pissed off about this whole experience.  :goldpissed:

It is her signature personal character image on the dakimakura. It's her as a cartoon animal. Most furs may not want to sleep with a married character. Plus those fancy body pillow cases are $75 each in some instances. I haven't looked to see if this one has been discontinued.

Someone has been stealing my pop at work again. Twice this week already, and just the Coke/caffienated stuff. Today, they took the "decoy beverage" mere hours after it was placed in the fridge and I left the plant to make my rounds. Getting caught stealing gets one fired here.

I wrote Fire This Guy on the bottom of the can in case he's cheeky enough to drink it in the break room around others. It's possible, he's just chuggng it and ditching the can in the regular trash.

Whoops!  :o So now I'm out $40 and trying to figure out what to do with a tank kit I don't want and how to get my money back. $40 ain't bad for a kit that retails normally for about $70-75.

My military surplus Dutch Army tent was infested with ants, the kind you would get with an ant farm. The tent wasn't used in two years and the ants had chewed a number of pea-size holes in the fabric side walls. The holes have been patched from the inside and the ants shaken out. The tent was hung on a line out back to bake the remaining ants out in the sunshine. The sight of the tent was off-putting to the fox and she avoided the area for a day or so. I feared she had met a bad end.

turning 18 soon and iv got pretty much no direction in life, and no idea what im doing....

if it weren't for my dad "taking care of me"  i'd likely end up on the streets, with completely no idea how to recover (besides seeing if any of the people i know would let me stay with them for awhile)

so yay... thank you high school for being completely useless, wasting the time i could have been using figuring out what to do...

Over the past week, I've had...

-a major depressive episode, to the point where I almost stopped working to sit down and cry my eyes out (Monday, 8/1)
-got diagnosed with mild diabetes (last Thursday, 8/4)
-taking the GRE exam today (in about two hours)

So yeah. Not a good stretch for the foxy.  :(

I just read about this through various sources. Longtime furry fandom member, fursuiter, MFF staffer, and past Furtopian member, Phoxtayl passed away.  :o  :'(  From what I read, I think it was around August 4th. I didn't know the guy much. Met him a few times with some other furry people and fursuited during a few outings. Then kinda "lost contact" with him long ago. I'm sorry to hear of his loss. He will be missed.  :'(

Phoxtayl (Left in red shirt), M.T. (Kneeling), Kobuk (Behind M.T.), and another suiter, Keeshanic (Far Right).

i have been feeling progressively more depressed, and have been having a hard time holding it together the past few days... so i guess it's likely just a few more days till i get another anxiety attack, feel horrible the next few days, then getting depressed again, and repeat...

im surprised that no one has really done anything to help yet. parents/extended family say they care about me, but they haven't really done much to actually help. i really dont under stand, do i need to go all crazy, and have a mental breakdown in front of others for anyone to actually do anything/get help when it's pretty obvious that i need help? 

or they can at least say that they dont care about me to the extent that would make them actively try to help.. though that seems like something that nobody ever wants to admit. i constantly talk/complain about what is wrong, and no body ever listens to it, or they take offense to what ever i say, and behave defensively. hell no wonder there are so many suicides.. maybe it's because nobody ever listens to them..

feeling really weird/uneasy at the moment.

just finished having dinner maybe 1-2 hours ago, went back upstairs to my room, and kinda dozed off at my desk. woke up at 3:10, 3:37 right now, and feeling extremely disoriented. have a slight head ache, collapsed onto the ground when i tried to get back on my chair having some trouble standing back up, forehead feels pretty warm so im guessing i might be getting sick.

still feeling heavily disoriented right now, so i have completely no idea what the hell is wrong with me..

Edit: ok this is just ridiculous but i am having trouble thinking of how to take a piece of paper out of a folder i have... there is diffidently something wrong with me right now.

also got barely any sleep the night before, so i guess dehydration, and being very tired caused that.

Look, don't ask me for details, ok.  :P It would take far too long to explain. I got a very bad headache last night trying to sort out all the mess, and I don't want to get another one again today.  x_x Suffice to say, I gave up last night. I decided to delete my Yahoo account. This will effectively also delete anything associated with Yahoo such as Messenger, other YouTube accounts, Flickr accounts, etc.

I'll just restart fresh again after everything has been deleted.

Today was hot and stuffy beyond anything i ever could have expected for this town.  If this doesn't blow over in a day or so, i fear for my sanity.  If this drags out more than i week, i think i'll be lucky to survive.

Also, for those who don't know i live in a small brick party room in the backyard of my house.  No AC, the fans hardly seem to do anything most of the time, and it's wholly uninsulated.  The place is an oven at the best of times, but today's heat is absolutely absurd.

i had a week off but next week on tuesday i have to go back for the school meeting i have weekly to return work and get assigned more (im in an independent study program thing)
now the bad part is that since i was sick 2 weeks ago the work i was meant to give two weeks ago might not count as earned credits since they might be considered late.

maybe i should ignore being sick and passout while driving to school just to see if ill get kicked out from that program for being hospitalized...

problem is that i explained to her that i do not have access to those supplies at home, and that i am unable to do them. she told me to improvise and find the results of the lab online. iv searched for the results but i have found nothing. so this really isnt working out that well...

have lots of school work that i need to finish tomorrow (if i miss this work, i get kicked out of independent study), it has been difficult to breath most of the time, chest hurts/headaches time to time, waking up most mornings feeling sick (sometimes sick later in the day), feeling very depressed, having lots of anxiety (most things are related to the source of the anxiety so i cant avoid them), feeling extremely hopeless that things will ever get better, and lacking trust to anyone even the one i love.

spend most of my time in pain and/or feeling sick, along with severe depression, so this is just amazing...
finally starting to see a therapist but as i have thought for a long time i doubt talking to them would really help that much.. even if i get on medication the depression will likely still linger around, making me dislike the feel of not feeling emotions and likely stopping.

i had so much hope for this life a year ago, but hell everything is screwed up now. was hoping that i could just hold on till the good times come but i guess not, and i guess these "good times" i thought about were just a lie this whole time.. 5 years was already enough, but now my chances of achieving the goal iv been heading for are slim. i have been patient, and have been trying my best just to hold on and get through this, but the problem isnt solvable now... i put in lots of time, effort, trust/faith, suffering, and sacrifices into this, yet this is what im met with? hell iv only got two choices, one leading to no direction in life, and being doomed to be alone for the rest of my life, and the other which is just more suffering only with faith/hope that it will heal over time.

really looking forward to what ever accident/illness comes next. at least in that case i dont need to deal with all of this suffering.

okay wow... my dad just kinda flipped out saying that i need to help out more, and work with him for whatever. and he is also blaming my mom for more things (even though the things he was blaming my mom for happened after my mom moved back to the east coast)

funny thing is that he said i need to do more stuff but i dont even have the resources to do that stuff. says that he wants us to go buy are own food, yet he doesnt give us any money for it (and he has yet to pay me back for the money i spend on food)

this whole thing happened when i asked if he did anything with my passport papers. he went off blaming my mom for my passport not being ready, which i stated that my mom wasnt even here during that time, and then he said that i need to be helping out. says i need to plan things with him yet i have been asking about when we were going to get the passports ready for months. he also claims that he cant do this stuff for me, yet i dont even have all my personal documents (only thing i have of mine is my birth certificate, and DR no idea what else i might be missing)

he claims that just because im 18 i need to be doing all this stuff when this is completely new to me. the way he explains things always makes them seem as if he is doing what ever it is, and then we find out he isnt. hell he has barely done anything with us, and is just working all the time and he expects us to just magically know what we are doing.

this just keep getting worse.. wth...

Went to a large model contest in Chicago yesterday. Won a 2nd Place Silver medallion for a model ship I built. :)

So I won a medal.........but didn't. Here's why: This contest I go to seems to have a slight problem of not purchasing enough awards to cover all the participants/entries at the contest. So they tend to run out from time to time. But it's hard to know how much to buy from a trophy/awards shop cause the organisers of the contest are mostly guessing on how many entries will be there before the contest has even taken place. So anyway..........myself and a bunch of other people will be getting our awards mailed to us in the next few weeks as they become available. :(

waiting for my dad to buy plane tickets so i can visit my partner but he isnt even willing to spend those few minutes to look at the flights for a bit and buy them. he told me to send him information on the flights yet the tickets change price/get sold out fast and then i need to look for a different one, so i cant just link him to a specific ticket to buy for me.

hell he just spends all his damn time either working, going on vacations/trips that are far more expensive than what im asking for, or getting drunk with his friends. i am not looking to get on good terms with him, i just want to get away from here and be with my partner.


another bad thing is that a couple months ago my brother and i sorta made plans with our aunt to make a surprise visit to my mom for Christmas. after my partner was denied entry into the US i forgot to tell my aunt to cancel those plans since im going to be visiting him. just got a text from her today that says she is looking forward to seeing us, that my mom will be very happy to see us, and that she is sorry about letting her know about the surprise visit.
going to have to tell her that we are likely not going... my mom is a nice person, but i dont really feel much of an emotional connection to her. but im likely going to look like a bad person to the rest of my family, and this will likely not be a nice thing for my mom to hear. hopefully they dont end up hating me, but my partner is the only chance iv got at a happy life so i guess im taking that chance.

i have a essay that i have to do for school. started at 7pm yesterday sorta worked till im guessing around 6am. been working on it today for about an hour and iv only got the background sentences, thesis (horrible quality), and 1 quote.

also kinda starving atm since no one here is buying food, im saving my money in case i ever need to move out or if my dog ever needs medical treatment (my dad would likely not pay for vet bills)
trying to work on this essay with a headache is very annoying, and will likely be working on this for a few more hours...
 

edit: turns out hot coco helps out quite a bit, though it is still very annoying, and i constantly feel like im just going to collapse on my desk and fall asleep (guessing a strong coffee or something like that would help more)

Our fathers had worked together in the same business for many years. Things like this just don't happen in smalltown USA.

I oldered a couple ex-East German pellet rifles through an ad and from a company I've dealt with in the past. They only take check or money order. Contacted them first to get exact shipping charge. Thinking my order would arrive sooner--I sent a money order in early November. Still waiting for that long box to arrive on my doorstep. The company is located in Tennessee, where they had those deliberately-set fires. Hope that's not the cause for the delay. They have yet to respond to a recent email.

not one of my proudest moments. hell the past year iv lost pretty much all pride that i had in my self, and feel completely worthless now so yay... hopefully my life will improve in the future but iv got heavy doubts on that, and feel like things will turn for the worst.

Not sure if this counts as good news or bad news. Had my tax appointment today. Found out that I am getting refunds, but........the total (Fed and State) will only be about $800 or so. In order to raise that, I need to look for some extra medical paperwork at home which I may or may not have which could hopefully raise my refund total to about $1100 or so. So.......back to the tax preparer again next week for another appointment. Hope I can find the paperwork I need.  :P

was able to get all weeks math, and science work done and today was going pretty good. but then all of the sudden my depression and "anxiety" came back after hearing something.
Spoiler: show
reason i put the "" around anxiety is because I figured out while talking to some random people online that i dont even having anxiety and it was just something that everyone convinced me that i have...

hell those "anxiety/panic attacks" i had before werent even anxiety/panic attacks.. while i was worrying about some stuff, all that crying was due to feeling horrible about things that happened to me not because i was worrying.

hell the only anxiety that iv got is social anxiety but it doesnt lead to panic attacks, just makes me a little slower while talking to random people i dont know... and worry about what im going to do in the future but again it doesnt give me panic attacks...

well anyway at least now i know that its being treated badly by everyone around me that is making me feel horrible and isnt just me worrying too much about whatever.

though i guess this doesnt really chance much... my whole family thinks im crazy/illogical and whatever so the damage is already done.. so much joy in living isnt there?

Several new bites have appeared on my ankle (I didn't wear socks and got eaten alive), one on my elbow...all from just two days ago. Been vacuuming like crazy, my roommate washed my sheets and clothes in super hot water and dried everything on the highest temp setting. I even put baking soda down on the mattress and box spring, vacuumed this morning. I used Tiger Balm on my feet and arms one night, then 40% DEET, then 100% DEET last night. No new bites this morning; probably going to have to see the doctor 'cause the ones I have are really inflamed, even though I've been putting aloe vera on them and washing with soap and water.  Some nights I take Benadryl just to go to sleep. :'( Going to try the pest control guy again...I saw him in December/January suspecting bug bites and he claimed I was ok... >:(  Just because the sticky traps don't work doesn't mean I don't have bugs! Now I have proof with a dead bed bug and repeated bites. Really hoping something can be done about this....I feel like the only crazy person at home because only I've been getting bitten and reacting to it!  :'(

My mate contacted our rental insurance agent and wrote a letter to the landlord demanding repayment without retaliation. We haven't received any response yet, but if we get an eviction notice we will go to court. According to CA law, the apt complex has to control bed bugs without cost to tenants...since bed bugs make it uninhabitable and impose a potential health hazard. We received a notice on accident for another unit and it's obvious bed bugs have infested the complex...tons of mattresses get thrown out every week or two.  :'(  We haven't located the source of the bugs, but we can't do any more inspection without risking payment.  x_x This has become a nightmare...our first place was so perfect when we moved in two years ago...now it's a mess.  :'(

Only a month of freedom from the bed bugs...tons of bites the past two days, caught and killed two live bugs while cleaning this morning.  x_x  Encased my mattress and pillow, throwing out old pillows, doused the mattress and corners with rubbing alcohol and EcoSmart bug killer. This combo of repellents seems to work wonders, in addition to Febreze, drying blankets and clothes on high heat, and vacuuming constantly. The complex refunded me the money I spent on the treatment, which didn't seem to do any good. The entire complex should be tented, but that will never happen...too many people live here, and with the rent so low, I don't think getting a reimbursement for that would be a possibility. Going to try and hang in here for another year...we can't afford to move, thanks to my taxes.  :'(

I broke my wrist last month, probably won't fully heal til October.

How long a bone heals usually depends on the severeity of the break and/or any other factors.
I'm well aware of this kobuk, it's just now barely starting to heal, I broke it in three different places.

Thursday can't seem to get here fast enough. That's when I have a doctor appointment. Not sure what I did, but my left shoulder hurts and has been painful for about a week and a half. Then last night, I must have slept wrong and hurt my lower back.  x_x  Ice packs and heating pads are not helping much, if at all, for either condition.  :'(

My wing commander expects me to be at the conference. I'm a star attraction it seems. I passed on the last three and one of those coincided with the furcon, but it was out of town and featured no model rocketry panel. I may be overdue for some recognition too.

Finally got around to changing the spark plugs on my truck. 50% is easy: you can get to it from the driver's side and don't have to remove anything else.

The 3 on the passenger side, though... I had to remove the engine cover, the intake duct, the throttle body, and the plenum (upper intake manifold). Every time you remove the plenum you need to replace the gaskets, so I planned ahead and purchased accordingly.

So I get everything apart and I notice that inside the plenum is coated in this filthy wet dirt. I look down into the lower manifold and it looks like the same, only with less dirt (yay! Dirt + precision machine parts = bad news). The grime smelt like gasoline, but the engine is intake injected, not straight into the cylinders, so I figured it might have gotten wet when I bled off the fuel pressure (to remove all the crap above).

I pull my spark plugs. They seem a little dirty, but they're also about 40,000 miles overdue. Then I pull two that are wet. That's never a good sign. They don't smell like gasoline, either. Also not a good sign. I check the intake gunk again. It doesn't smell like gasoline anymore. Uh-oh.

I find the PCV valve and hose, both with oil dripping out of them. The valve is bad, and I need to change the valve ASAP or it's going to cause much more expensive problems later. I try contacting all of my local friends to see if they can give me a ride in exchange for beer/pizza, but none of the ones in town reply. This means I have two options: walk to the parts store, or put the engine back together with the bad valve and replace it later. But to get to it I have to pull off everything I had to remove to get to the spark plugs. ...remember what I said about replacing the gaskets every time you remove the plenum? Not to mention after you have everything all the way back together you need to reprogram the accelerator/throttle system. I'd be doing that twice. Oh joy. but still put back together what little I can without installing the plenum.

I might be lazy when it comes to exercising for the sake of exercising, but I am not put off at the thought of walking 12 miles to get a car part I need. So I start looking at parts stores to see which one I need to start walking to. By this point the ones that have my part close before I can walk there and don't reopen until Monday after I start work in the AM. The bus doesn't run where I live, so I guess I'm walking to work Monday morning, and stopping by the parts place on the way back. Hurray.  :P >:(

It's July. I am deep into the 14th year of my exile from my hometown of Santa Fe. Not a day goes by that I don't miss my home and to top it off I'm starting to have dreams about my dead grandfather.

Just last night I dreamed that I came home and he was there! I was filled with terror and shock upon seeing him and then dad came in to tell me that it had all been a mistake. He was alive the whole time. fine and healthy.
I hated my grandpa as he was an abusive old man and I started crying in both dream and reality (as I found my pillow soaked with tears when i awoke) I tried repeatedly to tell my dad how absurd the situation was. That he'd been embalmed, buried and left there for months and yet he survived this?!
It was a nightmare full and plain and it wasn't long before granddad was back to his old ways putting me to work in strenuous physical labor and saying I was weak because I have to walk with a cane now.

I woke up and was relieved to find that he was still dead and buried.

Had a dream my sister was dragging dead bodies out of a house. I told her it was illegal to disturb a crime scene, and she freak out, and then she said something like

 "We'll ask mom. She's taking a nap in the back."

Suddenly the house became the first house I lived in as a child, and I realized that the bodies might not have been due to a crime, but an accident, and that they simply died in their sleep because they ran out of air. I chased after my sister as she ran into the house, telling her not to go in alone, but she was already in, shaking my mom trying to wake her up. Inside the house smelt strongly like natural gas. Mom had a very hard time waking up, so I picked her up and carried her outside where she quickly recuperated. We were about to tell her that she had almost died when she looked at us and "Go away!" and ran back into the house. I followed (of course) and saw her turning off a couple of burners on the stove that were open but not lit. Then I woke up (thankfully).

I was kneeling by the toilet at the time - I had lower abdomen pain and thought I was going to be sick. I found out later that fainting from pain is something that my dad does, and my sister has on occasion. I have once in the past too. My dad and sister both know it is coming though, and my dad can willpower his way into retaining consciousness. I had no warning at all. I think technically I fainted twice, one after the other? I was briefly conscious enough to eat a chalk tablet at least, although I don't remember it.  I had my blood pressure tested when sitting and standing, and an ECG, and there is nothing wrong there. There is literally no medical reason I -should- have fainted.

Now that Weisse and I know this is a thing, and a thing that most of my family has, we can keep a better eye on things in the future and make sure I'm not standing up or driving or anything similar if I'm in severe pain.

Kobuk,
At these contests , can you take closeup photos of other peoples work,and notes and such?
Are there some special techniques and/or materials they are using, that you could adopt?  Would that help?
(and if I sound like I am completely clueless, its because I haven't ever been in such a competition)

My bad news is that my L4/L5 in my back are inflamed, and my right leg is throbbing.  No doctor can ever see why.
I strap on a large ice pack for 15 min, and take 9 advil, and some coffee. Then after a week of that, it starts to go away.  4 years of this, and no change.  I think I brought it on by lifting a 100 pound aluminum plate at work.   :o

"We are live here at Meadowbrook Road at a farm where local police have made a shocking discovery. From what we've been able to learn, it appears two anthro turkeys were kidnapped earlier today. Police have released their names as Jennie O. Turkey and Frank M. Butterball. Witnesses described seeing two humans kidnapping the two turkeys and driving away in a meat packing van. Police have recieved a ransom note from the kidnappers saying that if they did not get off from work during this special holiday, then the kidnappers would "stuff" the turkeys and rip out their gizzards. Furtopia Police is asking all furry citizens to be on the lookout for the kidnappers as well as the kidnapped victims. Descriptions of the two victims were described as "plump" with Jennie being about 19 lbs and Frank being about 21 lbs. "   :D

My bad news is that , like too often these days, my dog is just getting sicker.  She is old, at 11.

Took her in for another checkup, and antibiotics did nothing.  She seems to have multi-drug resistant bacteria in her bladder , and it is now getting to her kidneys.
Culture done, and analysis done.  Will wait for results.  Know by Wednesday?

Was asked to have her checked for Degenerative Myeolopathy.  Its like ALS, Parkinsions, Or Myasthenia Gravis. 
It causes her nerves to die in her spinal cord.  Its a neuro-muscular disease.
When I heard of it, and that it is connected to ALS, I started thinking of DogBomb, who has ALS, and is a fursuiter.  His fursona is a GSD. 

If she has D.M. she is a goner.  Will do the test soon to find out.
Can't afford too much money on tests.  Spent over $500 in the last few weeks.

Sorry,  I didn't like controls homework myself.  I think you can retake it, right?

Not unless I stay an extra year. I'm taking a course in the spring, Vibrations, that fulfills the requirement and is aimed at mechanical engineers rather than electricals and their abstract, convoluted math ;)

Oh, now I get it. And again sorry about controls class.

Yeah, when signals start being discussed on the complex plane,  and people start doing complex math with imaginary numbers, for real world signals,  discussing signals that are going to happen in the future,  it gets a little insane. I just rolled with it,  and regurgitated facts later.  Then I used it only a little bit in real life,  and re learned what I needed at that time.

I have yet to see an imaginary signal in real life...
My test instruments measure only real valued signals here.

So when you are done with college, you're not going to be so busy with real normal boring life that you forget us fuzzbutts are you? :( :'(

Altercation with neighbor lead to police being called and my neighbor received a ticket for harassment.  He has a court date.  I may have to appear.   

(My property was vandalized and when i confronted him i was threatened.  Later he retaliated again. He then argued with police officer and was almost taken to jail).

 Nice fun way to end the year of 2018.

Now I have a security camera system installed.

I received a half built (50%) model kit from a friend back in 2016 as a gift. This friend couldn't finish the model for various reasons, so he gave it to me. Now it's 2 years later and I am finishing the model (Other 50%) and was hoping to enter it in some contests. Nope. Not gonna happen. At least 4 major contests that I usually go to have strict entry rules that a model must be the "sole work" of the person who entered it. In other words, a model built by more than one person is disqualified from entering.  :'(  My only consolation is that I can show it for "display only", but I can not enter it for competition.  :'(

TIL if you run regedit from within Windows Startup Repair, it edits the registry of the recovery environment instead of the system you're recovering. What's the point of even having it there in the first place?

(Also, swapping hard drives between Windows boxes is more fun than a barrel of monkeys, if the monkeys are trying to bite and scratch your face off because they're angry about being couped up in a barrel, but everyone already knows that. It's even more fun with laptops.)

Went to a 3 day model contest this past weekend on Fri., Sat., and Sun.
What went bad:
a) Hotel where me and a friend stayed decided to cancel all their hot food items for their Continental Breakfast.
b) People (Possibly kids? ) were running back and forth down the hallway multiple times between 10pm and 11:30pm Saturday night which made it difficult to get to sleep.
c) Rained the entire weekend.
d) My friend that I went to the contest with was coming down with a cold.
e) Recieved "battle damage" to my model due to crowded table space. Wasn't my fault, but rather another person who wasn't watching what he was doing and knocked a part off my model. Luckily, it's easily repairable.

Doing laundry Sunday night I found out I have a dead dryer. Noticed the breaker was blown. Thought "that's weird". So I flipped the breaker. Instantly blew. Thought "Wow. That's really weird". So I unplugged my dryer. Flipped on the breaker. Instantly blew. Thought "A new dryer would have been cheaper". Turns out when they wired in this box someone thought it would be a good idea to wire two 30 amp loads to one 40 amp breaker. I've lived here for over 25 years with this time bomb in my basement. The other 30 amp unit wired into this one breaker is my air-conditioning motor. It's dead. So here's what's happening. First I need a new breaker box. The inside of this one is burned. I have one breaker that blows already because of this. And I'm getting a new motor for my air-conditioner. Both are happening next Monday. Yep, a new dryer would have been cheaper.

He had a lot of work, home and social stress. Something happened at his work which seems to have been the proverbial straw to a camel. I suspect he had a mental breakdown.
His phone has been turned off since he walked out, and he hasn't signed in to any social media or been back to where he is currently living.

When he needs to be alone he just locks himself in his room for a few days (or he did when I lived with him). He wasn't the sort to lie about going to the shops and walk out of work in the middle of the day and just.. vanish. It's possible this is what he's done but it's out of character.

Can I ask if substance use is believed to be possible for this person? I was instructed that if a persons self changes drastically, that sometimes a drug may be involved.  However, I had a bit of an emotional episode just from life alone getting to me...no drugs involved.

I may take this time to speak about what happened to me... because it is sort of relevant.
My job was too stressful for me, pet health issues, harassment from neighbor, family issues, my health issues.  Yes, it ALL compounded against me.  I was unable to think clearly nor take any kind of mental loading or issues.  My brain was too full of issues to be me.  I left work within 2 weeks with little notice, lost my house, and now lost my dog from age.  Stuff happens to us all.  We all have a breaking point.  Is this what happened to him?

I had some people to ask for help and a place to go (although I hate it here).  Else I would now be in a really bad state if I didn't have a safety net.

Does he know that he may have a place to go to "hide out in" like a friends place?  Maybe your place?
Does he have someone to be responsible for like child, partner, pet, family?  Will this keep him around?  If so, maybe he is there with someone familiar?

Can you post something he should be able to see on social media and basically tell him he can stay with you (or someone) ?

Here in US, apparently police do not do as much for missing persons case if the person is adult >=18 years.  Police assume that as a free person, they can just do whatever they wish (usually true).  However, if this person is suspected of being hurt, taken, or in an emotional/mental state that is such that they cant take care of themselves, police act sooner.  My brother ran away from home shortly after turning 18.  Police did nothing.  In the end my brother was just running around with his girlfriend in multiple states just hanging out and charging up a credit card.  Let's hope your friend is on a temporary "unplanned vacation" blowing off stress.

Maybe if you can call his employer ask if he has / had remaining time off?  Maybe he is burning vacation time to just get some rest?

Is there anyway to get officials started on a missing persons case?  Is he suspected to being a danger to himself?
You may have to start posting your own missing persons posters in areas, and online.

Drug use is a very unlikely situation.
He was last seen in a nearby city, where he has no family. He does not appear to be with any friends. He has no children, his partner is a non-serious relationship (she has other boyfriends and they are believed to have argued before he vanished). He has no pets and is living with his boss. There is no reason for him to stay.
There are multiple posts on his social media from many different people. We have posted to him that all he needs to do is say"I am safe, give me space" and we will call off all searches. He has gone completely offline. We also suspect he has ditched his car and is going by public transport so as not to get hit by number plate recognition. He has either turned his phone off or ditched that too.
He does not have vacation time. He took off in the middle of the work day, and as I said, he lives with his boss.
It is unknown if he is a danger to himself.
He is officially a missing person and the police are looking for him. However, he is considered to have made himself missing so they cannot do things like track his bank cards. However, police are actively looking for him on CCTV and in person.

He has been spotted a few more times and is believed to be safe for now.
Title: Re: The "Bad News" thread.
Post by: Jade Sinapu on July 27, 2019, 09:42:13 pm
 Does he do classified work like what needs a security clearance?
In other words,  is he involved with things that could make him an enemy of someone?

It does sound like he is trying to hide for sure.

Either he is in danger and is staying hidden, he has done something bad,  or is just needing serious alone time. Let's hope he's chilling out.

One off the wall idea is to use a medium. Aka psychic. Only if they do not request much money,  else obviously a scam.

I bet some police departments do use psychics as a last resort but never speak of it.

Glad your last post says he is believed to be safe 4 now. That's something.
Title: Re: The "Bad News" thread.
Post by: Loc on July 28, 2019, 07:52:22 am
He does not do classified work - I used to work with him in fact. If he makes enemies, they are the "that guy's a git let's not talk to him" kind. Irrelevant as, despite him often being an unintentional git, people seem to pretty universally like him anyway.

He was spotted on a social media site. Which is a good sign. We are leaning towards him having gone to get some alone time. It is unlikely he is in any sort of danger as he doesn't have the kind of life that would lead to any, and his mistakes are generally small and fixable. However he has been under stress lately and has probably just gone physically away from the area to help him mentally get away from the stress.

I would never personally use or suggest someone else use a psychic.

Post by: Jade Sinapu on July 28, 2019, 04:20:01 pm
I am glad he is being spotted more and more now on social media. And from what you say he is not someone who people dislike enough to hurt nor does he get into trouble.
Life must have thrown him for a loop, and he took some alone time.

And as for the psychic suggestion... heh, sorry.  Perhaps because of a strange thing that happened in my life I was more open to the idea.  But No... not ever would I suggest it as the only course of action, and I would caution against getting too much money or hope involved regarding psychics.  But if someone you care about is missing, maybe worth <$100, once, to see what comes of it? Obviously only my opinion.

Just glad that things seem to be improving.

While it isn't bad news at all, it is relevant to prior conversation here:
My friend has been found and spoken to. He is safe, but has asked that no details be told to anyone other than that. I've asked everyone I had looking for him to spread around to stand down and give him space over everything else.

Try to squash that depression.  It has held back many a good person from their better future.  Find a good memory and recall it, if that helps you.  Find a way to see what you have now is good too, because I bet good things exist, but are being hidden by depression.  Sleep is the enemy of depression, and so is that exercise.  I know it's easier for me to say it, rather than do it.

If you have feelings for someone,  at least it means you feel and care, right? Better than the alternative. And why is it complicated,  are they an upright walking and talking anthropomorphic animal and you have a crush on them?  ;)
I hope you can resolve these feelings that have you down.

When I confronted him, he pretended to not hear me, etc,  and wouldn't even look at me.  So in the end, I lost a bit of money.

The dams already broke, but that's on the other side of both lake Michigan and lake Winnebago. There would have to be a Noah-and-the-Ark level of flooding for us to get wet from those dams breaking. The local dams here actually make Lake Winnebago as large as it is. If they broke Green Bay would get a little soggy, and we'd actually get drier  :D

Had to beg someone to tell me where to meet before heading out to Snover, MI to march in the recent parade there. Headquarters nixed our involvement but that info failed to get conveyed to me. These people asked me to come out too.

Someone dressed as Chase from Paw Patrol was at the event, according to the post on FB.

Glad you go to go!



And funny about Chase - PawPatrol
I would LOVE to see Everest...  :-[ :-[

Actually wasn't allowed to participate by a higher authority.

An informal get-together tomorrow with my CAP unit was officially cancelled.

My CAP online conference is this weekend. No cost involved. Seems a challenge to navigate the site. Discovered that no national recognition for my efforts this year. However, the two from my state who did receive honors are getting some "attaboys" on social media now.

Put up a photo of my fursuit as a profile picture.

Just learned today that a modeling acquaintance passed away yesterday.  :'( I didn't know the guy that well. But he did show up for some of the model club meetings that I reguarly went to and I did used to see him from time to time at past model contests. I have no idea if he passed away due to Covid-19 or if it was something else.

I wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the "Grind my Gears" thread. Either one would've been good I guess.

Anyway...........Just an FYI, FB (Facebook) has been trying to get users to try it's new site look. This was some sort of Beta change that started weeks or months ago. Changing the background, colors, buttons, and everything else about FB. I don't know about anybody else, but I don't like it. I prefer the "classic FB" look. Anyway, I got a popup message notifying me that FB will change to this new site look permanently starting in September. After that, you can no longer change back to the classic look.
How this will affect the groups and pages I manage (If anything.) is unknown. If the changes are too severe, I may have to delete all my groups.

I went to get tested today.  They said that I'll get the results by the the day after tommorow at most. I'm not very worried as I'm low risk and my symptoms aren't severe but it's going to suck being stuck in complete isolation if I do have it. Honestly though, it's pretty amazing that I made it this far without even gaving to go into quarantine.

Low risk is not no risk.  I know you know.
If you have it and need to quarantine,  thank you if you do so,  as it might save someone who is higher risk.  And of course I do not want you to have it.  That would be very bad.
Hope you are ok.

From what I've been told, it is a single mass, partly fluid and partly liquid. It could be a cancer, a benign tumour, or an ovarian cyst gone insane. The original plan was to try and enact "fertility preservation" and just take the one ovary, run tests, and maybe put me back under as needed but as I was certain I don't want kids, we are taking the nuclear option and ripping out everything which, if it is cancer, it is likely to spread to first. Then if it is found to be cancer, I'll need to get hit with chemotherapy if we think it may not have been confined to the reproductive system. If it was confined or was non-cancerous then great, problem solved.

National,  you can only walk up to 500 meters outside of your house. The silly thing is, the virus is mainly being spread through specific communities but threy didn't want to make people mad so they made it nationawide.Also, here people don't really trust the government and they are terrible at following rules in general, so I suspect that they might enforce the lockdown with the miltary.

Sorry to hear this.  It can be frustrating.  Having a good carpet cleaner machine takes stress out of the concept of "damage". It's just carpet, it can be replaced.  Keep cool.

Increase potty breaks,  see if he is eating salty foods and guzzling water,  see if he has diabetic symptoms especially if overweight.  If he is not neutered and older,  his prostate may be slightly enlarged and he may not empty totally when he does pee. A vet can tell you all this and more.  Just love him.
I'd do anything if my old dog Heidi could just pee my floor one more time. Hope he improves.

Couldn't your club do like, a big video chat conference meeting thingy? Or even just text chatting in a discord server and sharing pictures? Or take video of what you've been working on and upload it to YT and share amongst yourselves.

Or do they have really limited crappy net that would limit doing such stuff?

I am having some trouble adjusting mentally to some of the new realities of my life after surgery.

That's not to be unexpected. It was pre-cancerous, though, which means that had you not had the surgery you would be much, much worse off later down the road. Be patient, too. You just had two important hormone glands removed, and your body is dealing with some serious swings in hormone levels between them suddenly being gone and starting HRT. It will take some time for things to stabilize. If you aren't talking to a therapist, consider doing so. Major life changes like this are a lot harder to deal with than even you might expect, and they can help you work through things. You have all of us, of course, and while we furries are a very caring and supporting bunch I'm afraid most of us have limited skill in helping people like that.

Not to say we aren't here from you. We all are. *hugs*

I can't do that as my cellphone doesn't have certain capabilities right now which would take too long to explain.

We've had one employee test positive for Covid. Instead of getting us all checked our company is playing the wait and see game. On top of that one employee's newborn was exposed. His family is now in quarantine. I've worked directly with this employee. My immune system and body are in a way that I could have the virus. Not have a temp or any symptoms.

The chapter of a public service organization to which I transferred three years ago wants me to take charge. Problem is, I'm working at a job several counties away, I don't need the aggravation, and I'm content with my current level of involvement. There really aren't any perks to being the leader--for me at least.

If pressed, I'll lay out that my fursuiting for them would end. No parades, festivals, fundraisers, or open house events. Someone may ask "Who's in charge here?" and be told "He's over there wagging his tail".

I went downtown to my local store to see if I could find anything. Only came away with 1 DVD. The prices weren't low enough for my taste. And if you wanted to buy a Blu-Ray + DVD combo pack, you couldn't. You either get the BR or the DVD, but not both.

I deactivated my furry Twitter feed because small press editors and writers came after me en masse for my questions toward a new lit mag publication I'd never heard of before. The pub, Mesozoic Reader, is one I thought I would be perfect for, they misinterpreted my questions as a form of trolling, blocked me, sent their friends after me, and to top it all off, a long winded thread was posted on a pub site stating that my Tweets were directed at them personally, AND that I am a white supremacist. I wish I was joking. I cried my eyes out last night and deactivated a feed where I had maintained good friendships over the past few years. I was heartbroken.

The only good thing to come out of it all? After I got blasted publicly for being suspicious of a new publication site, lo and behold! A small press lit mag called Violet and the Bird turned out to be a total scam operation! And they apologized profusely to the scammed writers, and were heartbroken by what happened, apparently. *major eye roll*

So, *I* can't question a new small press, but *they* can out them as being unprofessional and unethical and somehow that's not white supremacy??????

Anyway, I've had A DAY that quickly has felt like A MONTH.

Sorry for the terrible day.  Doesn't make sense why they blew up like that.

Today was less terrible, except for the annoying tree trimming during my online field trip lol aaaaaaaa...and yeah. I have no clue why that kind of leap was made and why it was assumed I was attacking/trolling random folks online. I think people get into this bizarre hivemind state when they are on Twitter and tend to be vicious with newcomers to their protected folds or groups, lashing out at anyone they instantly deem as unfit without even reading what they wrote...it's all based on an instinctual reaction rather than calming down and responding in a mature way. *shrug* I wasn't the only one called out in this way and blocked and...yeah the whole thing was very odd. I'm still going to keep writing my stories and making my art...I just needed to step away from that handle and keep the one feed (my main, 'normie' Twitter) for a while.

What's even stranger is that the backlash toward this brand new "lit mag," Violet and the Bird, has been so total that the scammers up and quit, making off with other peoples' works without much repercussions, and making money off the magazine to boot. It was rumored that this "company," along with quite a few of the reactionary authors and small press zines that raised an outcry about me, are inexperienced folks in their teens/early twenties. I honestly feel that there is nothing wrong with me researching before sending my work...and I am honestly glad I did in terms of that one new publication. I've since blocked the worst offenders in the original fiasco I was in the middle of unintentionally, but I've also learned to just quietly research rather than ask anything at all (because an ask=troll automatically I guess).

I drove 100 miles back home, where I used to live. I wanted to relive some good times with my new dog Wanda.
The park where I walked my dog Heidi for 10 years is trashed.  All vegetation cut down to the ground.  Some trees burned,  fences put up in spots,  others torn down.  Both ponds drained.  They call it a wildlife area?  There's no animals there, except for one young coyote who has severe mange.
No joke, I like animals.  I like canines.  I grew up practically in that park, back when it was wild and free.  It was like looking at a brother who was ill, beaten up,  and homeless.  I am so sad right now.  I cried off and on for a hour driving home.
Seems everything went to hell, right after I left.  Even my town is in a shambles.  If I could have given the coyote dewormer in a meal of dog food,  it probably would have stopped the mange.  It's a broad spectrum anti parisiticide as well as dewormer.  I feel so down. I can't go "home",  there isn't one.

A guy at work cornered me in the bathroom to tell me that my recipe I put in the company cook book was not truly Korean although I said it was.  He said his wife was mad as heck and it was "cultural appropriation", and she should know since she is Korean.  I apologized and he was still angry. 

I mean it is a recipe in a little known company cook book, come on!

I then went home to continue working from home since I was now uncomfortable at work, and found my dog was ill.  Cleaning up after her still , 6 hours later.
She goes to vet in 4 days.

Then I have another package that was supposed to be delivered today from Amazon. Nope. According to tracking by FedEx (Or I should say, FedUp.), the package is sitting on a truck and won't be delivered till tomorrow, I hope.

My dad was picking weeds in his yard and wound up in the emergency room.
He picked a plant called Donkey Tail Spurge.  It is also called something like Euphorbia Mirisantis.
The sap is white and like glue and he was severely allergic.  He had anaphylactic shock and his right cornea is burned and he can not see right now.
Thankfully he is doing okay now.  He still has red welts where the plant touched him.

Apparently in Colorado this plant is considered an invasive species and it is also illegal to have.  If it is on the property , it HAS to be removed.
I can see why.

Flickr and Photobucket both changed their prices and their account options a few years ago which made them both very "unattractive" for image hosting.  >:( Since then, I've only been posting my images on Facebook to share with people and groups because there's no fees and such there.
But I still need a place to host images to share with regular website forums. That's where Imgur comes in. I started an account 3 years ago, but never fully used it till yesterday. At least there's no fees there, no image capacity limit in an account. Though they do have a limit of 50 images uploaded per hour.........or is it per day?
If there's one thing that might get on my nerves about Imgur, it's that the site allows you to "vote" so to speak on a post or image by giving "points". If you like an image, post, or comment, you can vote UP or if you don't like something, you can vote Down. The more points you get, the higher your ranking and the more badges and whatever you get. Not really sure I like that system. But where else am I supposed to go for image hosting? As I said, Flickr and Photobucket have gotten crazy with their different account options and the fees you have to pay.
I've posted a few things on Imgur already. I thought some of my stuff people would like. But I guess not. Some people are really harsh with their comments..........and giving or not giving points.  :'(

Hi Kobuk.  That is a form of social engineering.  Making people feel bad/good based on possibly flippant reasons.  I do not like how our society wants people to "criticize each other" over everything.  I make things at home that are no doubt not how most people would make them, and my coding style is also not 100% like what others would like.  But in the end, it works.  So to heck with people's comments.  Anyone read "Wild Swans" regarding a woman's escape from communist China?  The term "self criticism" pops into mind.  Reminds me of how our social media platforms operate.  If you do not get up votes, you are nobody, and are not worth hearing from.  But this is not true. 

My bad news is my work is going back on their allowing me to take time off for my local furry-con.  SO I AM MAD!  >:(

Had a good pile of trash bags and one very badly designed smoker grill I never used. Would have donated the smoker but it was missing parts. Pulled all this stuff out the the curb last night. Felt really good to get up in the morning and see it's all been taken away. Till I smelt it. I've had a trash bag in my kitchen can that went rancid shortly after I started putting things in it last week. Of all the stuff I brought out to the street I forget this unholy bag of horrors.

He lives 150 miles away, so to move all that stuff and 4 kids to her town to ride bikes once a month, is a big undertaking.  You would think it is easy to stop by her house for 30 min each time.  Really sad.

And I can not make her happier.

Getting ready to go out and search stores for Caffeine Free Pepsi. My mom can't find it in stores where she lives, so I thought I'd hunt for it where I live. Supposedly, the rumor is that there is an aluminum shortage, so some soft drinks have been stopped being produced if the cans can't be made. My mom thinks that's bull and she believes the real reason is that Pepsi probably discontinued some flavors so that other new flavors could be made and introduced.

Nope. Didn't find any today. :( Went to 5 different stores and nobody had any. Even called a friend who's wife works in a large chain store and she said they didn't have any. These supply chain issues affecting everything are really pissing me off.  >:(

My company has really ramped up the craziness.  They are off their rocker for sure!  What they envision does not align with what we can do, or what we know.
I see it going poorly fast.  Therefore, I should probably find another job in town.  :(
The company needs to seriously get their brains on straight!
I know I will try my hardest, I always do.  And I know it will be 3-6 months before things get seriously hot.  So I might have 1 year before I should blow out of there.
It just stinks to know, I might need to change jobs.

Honestly, I want to get out of my current line of work, but feel stuck and do not know how to get out of it.
It does bring me some money and stuff, but there is no happiness associated with it.  In fact it is my largest source of pain.
It would be okay if the job was do-able.  But it is tenuous at best.

I had a rough Christmas break. Went to visit my family and my dad's behavior means I am going no contact with them once again. Mochi got sick from the stress--turns out she has FHV 1 (feline herpes) after two pricey vet visits and tons of meds later. Two friends from my D&D group aren't talking with me much. Felt very lonely the past few weeks and was an absolute wreck when Mochi was struggling to breathe/eat. I'm thankful she's on the mend, and I definitely need better friends.

The folks changing my oil last week say my transmission oil pan is rotting and should schedule a time to address the problem. They found a few drops of ATF as they changed my motor oil. Drove to work Friday and before leaving for home, looked where I was parked and saw nothing on the pavement but snow. Talked to someone at Auto Zone and he said that they're likely doing a preventative measure. Bought some ATF and a funnel. Also checked online to locate fill tube and how to use oil dipstick to check ATF.
Title: Re: The "Bad News" thread.
Post by: Jade Sinapu on February 21, 2022, 10:51:30 am
Hey Rocket!
Yeah apparently for some vehicles, the MFR does not want or allow ATF changes at home.  My jeep has a cap on the fill tube.  I had to get the factory service manual to learn how to adjust the fluid level.  It is measured in millimeters and depends on temperature which you are supposed to measure with a scan tool talking to the transmission temp sensor.  I used the oil dip stick and carefully scratched mm rulings into it to act as a measurement tool.

My bad news is I may need to go to doctor and do not want to.  Having a strange thing going on.  Hopefully not TMI.
My right crotch area, a muscle is feeling rather weird, and if I cough too hard, pain shoots into my right leg.  So I am worried it is a hernia and guts are protruding into a space where nerve is, and when I cough pushes on nerve and causes the pain.  This may also cause the gut to get "cut off" meaning squeezed by surrounding muscles, and if it does that can cause death of tissue.  Now I do NOT know if this is what is happening.  This is a self-diagnosis.
However, I base it on other facts that may be too gross to share here.  So.. its an educated guess.

But last time I went to the doctor (heart doctor) he said he was not concerned with my heart skipping each 3rd beat, he was worried I was suicidal and needed drugs...
I tell ya, what makes me depressed is when people think I need drugs for a condition totally different than the one I went to see the doctor about.

I would advise, if you are feeling slightly down, and know you are just in a temporary low, like say,, neighbor wants to kill you, your faithful dog is dying, and landlord will not help with bad neighbor, and work wont let you take time off, do not walk into the doctor and say you are feeling down.  Those circumstances are just bad, and anyone feels bad in that situation.  Now I am marked as "major depressive".  How was i supposed to be happy 3 years ago when all that was happening. Now I have it on my record and can't shake it.  And doctors apparently think that no one can get over the blues themselves (no drugs).  I am doing fine now.  So if I see doctor about possible hernia, what will they say?  "Hey I see you have a hernia killing your large intestine, but here take these mind altering medicines because I get a kickback".

Rocket,
Not knowing the particulars on your Dodge's oil filter... are you saying that it is not as simple as tightening the filter canister?
If this vehicle has a remote oil filter canister, the seals on the adapter are probably leaky.  This should not be THAT bad I hope.
There might be a few online cost estimators to help double check the quote you get.

Oil was changed last month. They found the leaky transmission lines. The dealership fixed the lines, then reported the leaky oil filter cover and offered to provide an estimate. Checked oil and level is fine.

Oh you must have one that uses the oil filter cartridge system.

Post by: Jade Sinapu on April 11, 2022, 09:44:52 am
I have been away from the forums for a week because of the following.

I was walking Wanda (my dog of course), and it was about 7:30 ish, getting dark finally. My dog likes cool walks on the beach and a nice red wine with ... (what?! is this a dating profile ?)
So I was walking Wanda, and we were in the park.  We went to a medium sized pond on the park boundary. 
Wanda chased a feral black cat, and pulled me very hard.  I begrudingly jogged with her to lessen the strain on both of us.  All the while commanding her to stop and giving her the finger.  The pointing at you finger.
But alas she does not respond to any mans finger. 
So away I was whisked!

Wanda wound up passing under a barbed wire fence and got stuck in some thorny bushes as her harness caught on it.  The leash tape was also tangled.  She started to whine, and since I can't resist a girl in trouble begging for help, I found myself jumping into the undergrowth to unstick her.

I was like crouched tiger trying to free the leash and dog from the death grip of the thorny thicket.  Then I saw a hidden dragons head, except it was a horse!  IT poked its head at me, spun around in a flash and I stood up and turned so to protect myself.  I got hit in the left hip and above my left knee.

I went flying hit the ground and could still hear the echos of my yelling, to no one, and heard the thud as my body slammed down like I was fighting with The Rock.  I rolled over backwards over my head and sprang up and somehow was on my toes.  Hooves thundered off into the distance.

My immediate thoughts was , where oh where did my little dog gone?  And I called to Wanda, and found her laughing at me and high-fiveing the cat, who was probably chasing Jerry Mouse.
I grabbed her leash and walked her and myself home, all the time cursing my life.

I was unable to get medical care because the system is junk, and I have THE BEST medical care my employer offers!  So... I am thinking of electing basic coverage later.
Wanda was unhurt.

IF I had stayed crouching I would have been hit in the head for sure, and most likely in a coma or dead.
I have a severe muscle bruise, bone bruise, large hematoma which needs draining today.  I can barely walk, and feel like I have been kicked by a horse.
Strangely I show no bad discolorations.  Since the bruises are so deep, the blood is getting absorbed mostly before it makes its way to the skin surface.  I have a compression bandage on it to keep blood from seeping out into the tissue.  This happened Tuesday afternoon/night.  Only now am I am able to get to the computer without screaming.
I will call in sick to work today I think because simply I need to rest more.  My neck is strained from the whiplash, my abdomen the same.  Apparently it is like a car accident.  (hope you got airbag!)

So apparently, where this all happened, there are 2 wire fences.  The horse  walked through the break in one, and we both were squaring off in no mans land.  I lost the fight with Mr. Ed.

I have never liked horses, and this seals it.  They can go screw!
Why do people want to sit on a stinky, easily spooked, hulking mass of cranky, just to go slower than I can run, ride a bike, drive a car? 

My dog and I are going to take a drive past them and bark at them, "Stinky horses!".

(No offense to any of you horse-peoples out there, but I do not like them AT ALL now!)

My aunt, uncle, and cousins want nothing to do with me just because I'm unvaccinated. So much for holidays  :(  >:(

It's too bad they bought into all the vaxaganda hook, line, and sinker.  >:(

This means that they have no confidence in these so-called "vaccines". If the Fraudci jabberoos actually protected them from infection, then you are not a threat. If they don't work, and your relatives still believe you're "dangerous", then why did they take them in the first place? I had to deal with the same nonsense from all but one of my immediate family. since then, they've come to regret very much having fallen for the vaxaganda, and taking the lethal injections. At least they woke up in time to avoid the "boosters" that don't work, and add another chance for life threatening adverse effects. I hope yours do too.

It is unfortunate, but critical thinking skills are rare these days. Do stick to your guns and do not allow yourself to be emotionally blackmailed into taking these demonstrably deadly soft kill injections: Open VAERS (https://openvaers.com).

As for myself, I have to take a pass from a local furcon for the same reason. Last year, when I said I was dying to attend a furcon, I meant that figuratively, not literally. There's still Mephit Fur Meet or Megaplex where sanity prevails. I can wait.

That SUX. Had the same problems with my old man and chipmunks and mousies. I talked him out of killing the chipmunks by printing out information that proved the old wive's tales about chipmunks and damage to foundations was just that: an old wive's tale.

More nonsense when the mousies invaded. I got a Hav-aHeart from the hardware store and caught all of them. He insisted they were "filthy animals"; I showed him these mousies playing in a water dish, and asked one question: "How 'filthy' can they be if they like playing in water and regularly bathing?". He had no answer, but he also didn't kill them.

I'm in the same situation, Firelight. I have been to just about every AnthrOhio since the con began as Morphicon back in Ought 4. This year, AnthrOhio declared pure bloods unwelcome. Believe me, AnthrOhio '19 was my last AnthrOhio. I won't be back.

"Why do I need to be fully vaxxed?" Because the Chair and Board of Furlandia are idiots. By excluding pure bloods, and insisting that all guests take those clot chots, they could very welll have blood on their hands. There is no reason why you should take an injection of an untested, never before tried, experimental genetic modification that has been proved to be neither effective nor safe. I know I was saying back in '21 that "I was dying to attend a con", but I didn't mean it literally.

"Why can't we just have fun like used to, when no one was bothered by vaxx stats?"

Joe Biteme, that quack and puppy tormentor, Tony Fraudci, Al Bourla, Steffi Bancel, and Wall St fat cats need your help to drive up share prices. That's more important than fun, especially for a peasent like you and the rest of us. As George Carlin put it: "It's a big club and you ain't in it".

Can't we go back to the good old days?  :'(

Want your good old days back? Then take them back!. That means mass noncompliance. That means telling the Chair and Board of Furlandia that you are through with them, that you are never going to attend another one of their cons. You don't beg, you don't plead, you hit 'em where it really hurts: in the bank account. Thta's the only way you're ever going to get back to "normal".

That SUX, Jade. I have a policy of never talking politics or religion during work. Doesn't your supervisor object to your colleagues' not getting any work done? Maybe ignore them, refuse to join in, and just do your work.

I still hear them talk about the things they were talking about.  Their supervisor doesn't seem to catch on.  My supervisor knows now what is going on.  There was a phone conversation,  people were floored about what I said happened.  Will see what happens if anything. 

My bad news is our company seems to be losing people all of the sudden.  Hmm.

Loosing people? Perhaps that's good news Jade.  I've been at the same place for 29 years now. It's not the job, it's the people you work with that makes the job. This has been true everywhere I've worked.

Messed up on how much vacation time I actually have. Had to cut this one short and go back to work.

My brother needed shoulder surgery.  He waited and finally got it done.
I was visiting him a week ago because surgery failed.  Sutures pulled out of tendon and muscle went slack.  Pin still in bone.
During that initial surgery,  he was given a nerve block in his c6,c7 vertebra to paralyze his shoulder and such.  It paralyzed his right lung and half of diaphragm.    It was a big deal as he couldn't breathe.  It resolved in a day.  Doctors said it was actually common.

Anyway on his second surgery to make his right arm useful again,  he was doing OK. Then they started to take him off anesthesia and for some reason he had anaphylaxis and his heart stopped.  He was without oxygen for 2 minutes potentially.  Was rushed to a hospital that could actually do more.
He was resuscitated and started getting oxygen via a tube.
He almost died and no one seems to know why or are not talking.
But he needs to know why so it can be avoided again.

He is able to text me and take a selfie. So that is good!
But it shook me up bad.  My brother and I despite issues, are close. 
Sometimes he is all I have.

Well, one of my modeling friends decided to take a trip to Oregon for a school reunion (and to visit relatives too). So for the next 2 1/2 weeks, I won't be able to go to my monthly model club meeting nor go to an upcoming model contest. He was the only person that was able to give me rides to these events.

School reunions suck. I don't see the point in going to them. I have no interest in going to mine.

That's what I hate about dentists. They're almost never open on weekends when you have something major happen.  >:(
This is why when I schedule my appointments, I always go early in the week like Monday or Tuesday. So if something bad happens, then maybe the dentist can squeeze me in for an emergency appointment on Weds., Thurs., or Fri.

Post by: Jade Sinapu on January 11, 2023, 10:28:54 am
This is a bad news story designed to teach a lesson, one we all know, but shows how careful all of us have to be now.


My house is split level.
I live mainly in the bottom.  For less noise, less light, and I feel safer less exposed.

I have lived a life where I am mostly by myself.  I like it like that.  Been that way for 15 years now.  I'm fine with that. But there is no one to help me or be witness etc.

Yesterday morning my life fell apart and i never knew.  Till the phone rang.
I was about to go to work, county sherrif called, told me someone called them to say I was nude in my house and they could see me.
WHAT!?!!!?!?!!

I freaked out!  My stomach hurt and has not stopped.  I became dizzy and light neaded.  Heart racing I feel violated.  This is my house!

Apparently, in my multi tasking  haste, yeah someone saw me toweling off after the shower.  But how?
Downstairs window was indicated, and it is foggy from hard water stain, old, and small as a computer monitor (think 16 inch).  The shower is about 30 feet from that window and connected by a narrow hall that is at a right angle.  Outside I have a small decorative wood fence at street level that is 3-4 feet high.  It is solid no holes.  I have large pine trees in yard half way between street and house.  street is lower than house  The angles are all wrong.

All I can think is that when I opened the door to let the steam out, and Wanda came in, when she grabbed the toilet paper roll, and I gave chase carrying my towel, that someone saw. And yes I did dry off somewhere not in the bathroom, but... why was someone watching me!?
Officer stated that the reporting person was "driving by" and saw me..   How did they see me?  How long?  How could they see much?  Did they just stop and watch?
IDK WTH is going on!  Am I being targeted?

I went to work to save my job.  After work I frosted the  window with privacy film.  The window can't open because it is damaged anyway, so it is done.  no one can see anything.  I will never see out.
Why did this happen to me?  Was someone just waiting for someone to mess up so they could persecute them?
Is this a case of guilty while male?  What?

I AM NOT being charged with anything and officer was helpful.  He said that just be aware someone could see in and never let that happen again.
I asked if it mattered since it was my place.  I was told NO!  I was at fault, just never let it happen again or it is chargable.

So fellow furs, be careful of windows, they are evil, people ARE watching, even in your own place.  You can't be yourself.  You can't  be male and in your own house and be multi tasking and frazzled and get caught with pants down.  Seriously.  What do I got around here, Prude Patrol?

It was like this...
wake up late at about 730am.  I need to be at work by 8, not gunna happen.
I do software and such.  I can work from home.  I run upstairs do food for dog and me.
I run down log into computer and into work
I do emails for work to show i am "active"
I take do phone conference in pajamas.
I jump in shower after call, computer still connected to work to make it look like I am active.
I finish shower, fan must have died again, steam built up.  I pop door open and Wanda comes in and grabs TP roll.  I chase her and then get TP.  I towel off. 
Maybe my toweling looked provocative? IDK.  I got dressed, watched TV and packed dogs toys with treats and went to work.  I never got to walk dog.
I was nude for ? 5 min max?  Probably less.

I bet if a woman was nude, and a man saw, no police call would have been made.  Man would have conflicting feelings and know what happened was circumstance, and not to engage further. Aka go away fast.
I  know if a man is nude and a woman sees, he is a sexual predator, evil, and doing it on purpose.  She calls, goes on a crusade, and will not stop till he burns in hell.
See where this is headed?

I am not charged.  Police officer said he was there to help me too, and if I see someone lurking out there, to call.
But I live in fear till I die. 
My home is now not my home anymore, I do not feel safe.  I can't sell.  Market will crush me.  I need somewhere to live.  I have a job that needs a clearance.  If I lose the clearance, i lose job I lose house and I am homeless.  And can't get  a job again ever.  Everything is on the balance because someone pretends they can read minds and know what someone's intent is.  My intent was to get to work ASAP.  That is all.

And the kicker, I am on asexual spectrum and now have developed E.D. as of 1 year ago.  I can't even play with it... get the picture? yeah.
Seriously folks?  There it is. 
Want proof?  Well how do I furnish proof?  Just that, my word against whomever, and I am just one. 

I want to just curl into a ball and go into my own grave now.
People really stink.

Years ago, still married to my X , we had a neighbor who liked bird watching. With binoculars. It was quite obvious he was also watching us with them as well. I'm in the habit of almost always being nude or there about in the house. Even wile working in the garage. Wile in the garage I've caught neighbors watching threw the very narrow crack left where the bubble wrap didn't cover a window all the way. It bothered me at first. Then gave it some thought. They're not doing any harm to me. Perhaps I'm a source of entertainment. I'll eventually add to the bubble wrap to get rid of the less than 1/8 inch opening. In my case the peeping toms had to use a tool or be standing next to the house. These folks are full grown adults. Had there ever been under aged kids I'd be the one calling the cops.  As far as driving by, I've seen my share of nude people thew windows. Not intentionally. Just happened to catch my eye. Not a big deal. The only person I've ever seen who was intentionally nude in the open was a guy. Nude on a riding lawn mower. Funny has hell. Still laugh about it.

Are you targeted or stalked? Nope. If you were being staled or targeted the last thing that would happen would be the stalker getting the law involved. In reality your a victim of a passing 'Karen'. Someone who was looking to be outraged and you happened to be her 'target of the day'. You have been tagged by the type of person who will live the rest of their lives angry and miserable. Best thing to do is laugh it off. The cops had to come because the sighting was called in. Sounds like they were there to help you more than anything else. Relax Jade.

My complaint is You Tube shorts. Tired of getting notifications for four second videos.

My brother needs more surgery,  and fast.
He developed a bad " umbilical hernia" and his intestines are getting pinched. 
He is at work because they need the money.  He is literally working himself to death.
All because his wife had a mid life crisis and wanted to be 17 again instead of 38. She left him with the 5 kids she wanted,  and ran off with a man. A man who beat her up and has warrants.  He was arrested and still she doesn't learn.  She is still not taking care of kids or her husband.  I wish she had been killed by her abusive trash loser boyfriend.

Installed a new transmission in my vehicle. 
I had to remove it and reinstall it.  2 times.
Do you know how hard that is?

I want to sleep for a week till I can wake up and move without pain.
And I used a transmission jack and proper tools. 

I will fill transmission and transfer case tomorrow and check for leaks.  Then adjust fluid level.  Then do Quick Learn procedure to tune shifting. Should only take 3 hours? Then road test.  Then break it in over 1 week. 

So far I've put in maybe 80 furry hours to do this job.
But I saved about $5000

It only took removing skid plates, front drive shaft, rear drive shaft, transfer case, front exhaust and cats, o2 sensors, many wiring harnesses,  cross members, extension housing, removing and reusing output stub shafts which was not removable except by drilling tiny holes in carbide tool steel,  removing shift lever and cable,  training transmission fluid and recycling,  removing cooler and lines,  removing and reusing sensors on transmission,  dipstick tube and gasket, re- wrapping harnesses,  cleaning housings of grease and dirt, repairing damaged hoses, cleaning connectors for sensors, replacing seal on transfer case output, replacing seal on transmission output stub axle, removing interior center console,  removing emergency brake lever, removing various electronic boxes in center console, 

All while vehicle was up on 4 jackstands which were on blocks such that frame was 24" up off floor.


I do not want to do this again.

One of the text books Ive bought is an almost complete waste of money. Giving exercises without the information you need to complete them. This is by far the worst way to learn. It's harder to fix a bad habit than it is to learn a new one. Then when you get to the champers that are supposed to have this information it's only hinted at. Or worst. Not mentioned at all. This book is comparable to the Youtube videos that drove me to go to books. Spend 40 minutes telling you how great it is to be able to ski. Then three minutes telling you to put skies on and go down hill.

And then another coworker 2 days later had a stroke.  And then yet another coworker had a family member go to hospital.

 Three of the experiments I ran will have to be redone. Got real favorable readings. Unfortunately the environment gave false reading on the untreated substrates. Not a real set back. Just time consuming. The remaining six experiments gave very good readings. Proving the difference between the treated and untreated substrates. Still need the remaining three.  Will be adding a fourth as a continuation of two of the successful experiments.

Got home.  Message on my old answering machine that almost never gets calls.  The phone line is almost never used and that number is unlisted and also is hardly given out.

I checked the message... and I got so creeped out. I am still rattled.

The message went like this...

Hi this is NAMBLA, the national man boy love association.  You called me . Unless you are an older man who is in love with a young boy,  don't call this number again.

They hung up.
I stood there trembling and getting scared and worried and freaking out and getting mad all at the same time.  Boy am I mad!!
What is this all about!?!?

A pedophile group said I called them!? No way in freaking heck!
Plus why would they call anyone telling them who their organization was!?   Something is wrong here.  I got the caller ID from them. 

I don't know what to think.
Did a person call that group using my number( spoofed)?
And that dumb butt called the number back to tell them not to call unless they were creeps too!?

Did someone play a bad prank on me by calling me using a spoofed phone number and claiming I called that group!?
I want nothing to do with any of this!!!!

Jade. Report it. If it's a prank then no harm done. If there is a group like that then you'll be helping to keep them from harming.

My bad news. The unbelievably horrible attitude of management at my work place. We recently had a safety meeting. The subject of doing safety drills was brought up. The off shifts have not had a single drill in years. We found out why. "There isn't enough people on the off shifts to be concerned about it." My opinion of my work place can not get any lower than it is now. To make it clear we are going to start having drills on the off shifts.

I bought something online a few weeks ago.  I got a confirmation or was ordered and was on its way.
The shipper said the label was created.
It was supposed to arrive in 5 max.
It's been 2 weeks.  2 days ago I emailed company to see if shipper got the package since the shipper told me they didn't.
I got an email.
The man who was running the company I bought from,  died.  It was a small family run company.  Now a family member has to greive as an as somehow keep the company working. 
I feel so bad for asking them. 
I actually joked to myself,  what did they die?
Yes. Yes they did.
 :( :'(
What I ordered was one of a kind,  rare, vintage,  and special,  and of course.... sort of pricey. 
Idk.  I feel weird.  I want my thing.  But I don't want to bother people after they lost a loved one.

Been sick all week the last several days with a cold. Started last weekend on Sunday. It was right after I got home from going to a model show in Illinois. :(

Just discovered that I was removed as administrator on a FB page that I had established ten years ago, and was still maintaining up to this weekend. The joke will be on them in a few months if I return to group staff. :o

My ordered item is 1 month overdue.  I'm getting upset.
Company said they would ship another. Using a different company and for no charge.  I may take them up on that.
Is been long enough that they should either refund all my money or do what they said they would do.  A death in the family is hard.  But a company keeps going or shuts down, not this half asped stuff.

Company won't send item... still. Also not responding to emails.

I got diagnosed with severe osteoarthritis today. 
How fun.  I feel worse hearing it from a doctor. Will start a medicine which has side effects worse than the issue.
Can I go away now and not come back?

Received notice from my healthcare group that they experienced a ransomware attack earlier this month. My data may be compromised, including my SSN and credit card info. They provided a free ID protection account with a special code to apply. Yet the protection firm hasn't responded to confirm my account. It's been several days.

Yesterday evening, it was discovered that my account on a hobby forum had been upgraded. Surprising in that I hadn't been there in two weeks. So the upgrade was cancelled and password changed. Won't be another two weeks until the credit card statement arrives.

Found out today my brother had an accident. He's fine and no one else got hurt. Just a fender bender but it was with my mom's car. She's already said she doesn't want me to buy her a new one. I know she can't afford it nor can she afford payments. She'll get a new one before i spend $7k+ to fix her old one.

Gosh Ifeel such pain seeing a pet on the road dead. 
My heart goes out to them and you.
I have a soft spot for animals.  Raccoons on the road dead make me upset gives, coyotes, dogs. Too hard.

My bad news is at work they are having hard time getting funding. Again.

Hi Firelight.
I'm kinda getting old,  and heck,  I still find myself having to explain my spending and I've been on my own for a while. Haha!
I purchased a plasma lamp for my stupid collection.  It was 150. A bit.   
Parents saw it. Told me my sister is without a job,  other sister is a teacher could use more pay, etc... guilt trip!
It isn't right, In my mind,  to make one feel bad when they were trying to make themselves feel good without hurting anyone.  Assuming you don't have real obligations to others with your own money.  And assuming you earned that money,  people might want to butt out.
My 2 cents.


My bad news is,  a perpetual favorite,  my lame but job.

No, completely different. The Lava Lamp is filled with water and some sort of wax. Heated from below with a light bulb, the wax melts and rises and falls in globules. The Plasma lamp is a globe with low pressure gas and a high voltage electrode. It makes streamers that respond to touch.

Chipped in for the group "Super Bowl" chili luncheon at work. Event was moved back a week due to a vendor presentation, then moved back another day due to a training day. I was not informed of the second move and unaware that chili was available until I was eating my own lunch. Returned from assignments at 1215, also hoping to get some chili, but it was put away. A huge pot that I couldn't possibly move or access to ladle a few scoops without help. So having a "Lunchable" now.

My bad news is that despite everything indicating I should be happy,  I'm not.   I found and fixed a sneaky exhaust leak.  It was making me dizzy when driving and I would smell terrible odor and would arrive to work smelling like.. engine.
And despite that win, despite getting a good rating at work, despite my knees improving,  I'm just... blah.  Normally fixing an issue like what I did on my vehicle sets me into a good mood.  Not even an energy drink will budge my mood.

Thanks Simo. I was trying to get around to describing plasma lamp for Firelight, but life got in the way.
Not even my collections of things matter to me. I have a few different types of collections. Nothing matters.

I think my job is much to blame,  but reality is I'm going to have to stick with it for a little longer.  But honestly my dog is largely to blame. It is not her fault. I will try to explain.

She is NOTHING like any dog I've been around.  She is mean, cold, unaffectionate. She's unruly,  and hard to control. She bites me and I do nothing to deserve this.

A companion pet has always been a huge part of my life since I was a kid.   Since she is a cranky mean turd, she is also a daily reminder of what I lost. It affects all I do and think.

Not even a dog loves me. 
Must be me

I've been tapped to help pack up Mom's things for the move to assisted living. But it's on the same weekend as the local comic con. I'll need to inform the organizers I'm a no show this year.

CORRECTION--The "accidental" upgrade to the Rocketry Forum was actually something I forgot setting up. So all is well in that regard.

I've had a bad bout of depression this weekend and I'm heading into work tomorrow.  Unsure how I manage this.

I know my unstable job and fact I'm getting older and am unsure what job I can get in town combined with my cold hearted dog is much to blame but,  I keep going.

We met some kids who were very gentle petting Eevee. The bad news when we asked them if they had a dog, they said their mom hates animals and they can't even have a fish for a pet! Is this woman normal?

Hi Firelight,
It seems a lot of people are very anti pet.
Some think there is a lot of mess,  time,  money.
I've heard a lot of this from Co workers.

Yet their children go to activities,  cost a lot,  make messes etc.

My bad news is I feel very fatigued.  Idk why.

I've been driving with a bad front wheel bearing likely for months. It was thought to be tire noise. Stopped into 3-4 garages to get it checked--no dice. Took it into the shop where new shocks were installed. Set me back $440 as I had premium grade bearings installed.

Post by: Jade Sinapu on March 28, 2024, 01:02:45 am
Hi Rocket ,
Sounds like although that's a bit of dough, it's not bad.
To do my front wheel bearings,  the parts cost is at least $250 and it takes me 2 hours work and I know what to do etc. 
Glad you got that fixed before it seized up!

My bad news is... seems I have no friends anymore.  And work is habitually demanding 12+ hour days 5 to 6 days per week.  Duration unknown.  I'm tired.

Everyone seems to have bailed on Mom this week. That--or it's memory issues. A brother from out-of-town is slated to take her to church tonight, but she's heard nothing from him. I may have to step in.

The NAV feature on my ride decided to zonk out on me this weekend on the way to MCFC. Gray dialog boxes pop up that declare empty or locked files. So Maps or travel data couldn't be accessed. Made finding lodgings a challenge.
