Damn, I feel like the new guy all over again, stepping back to here.
I mean a month gone is a big deal…to me.
Well…
…sup?


I was just told that my sister's old rabbit who was put into the care of her friend (and my friend), died today.
I could have gave a shit less had it been the girl bunny but no, it was Ness. The bunny we thought was a girl until it got the other bunny pregnant and was just all around an awesome pet.
FUCK.
…He is getting a eulogy. NOW.

My little Romeo got fixed today. I was so worried about him all day because apparently bunnies can sometimes die under the anaesthetic. And I was working so I couldn't even be there to pick him up.
But he's just fine. : ) He's quite subdued right now but I'm sure he'll be back to his hoppy self soon enough. Hopefully he'll stop with the humping, too.

Well… I go the bike, but I forgot to factor in one thing…. I HAVEN'T RIDDEN A BIKE SERIOUSLY IN 20 YEARS!!! Yep… I'm having a hard time with it right now, but eventually my body will get used to working hard moving the thing and I'll be zipping all over the place in no time… I hope…

One other problem… my sister worries about me too much. So much so that she actually bought parts for my car and demanded I fix the thing and use it instead of biking around. Her worries aren't unjustified though as I've already mentioned the 3 main dangers I have to face while out cycling… not to mention I still have yet to get used to cycling again which means for some time I'll probably be zig zagging all over the place trying to keep my balance while tired… Still a nice bicycle though, but I'm worried about the exposed cables underneath parts of the frame (I'll just grease them up a bit with axle grease to help protect them from the elements…)

I was trying to sleep yesterday and the phone wouldn't stop ringing. I got so disoriented that I can't figure out which calls were real and which were dreams.

Then around 11pm when I was expecting to be called into work (but wasn't!) I woke up with the worst migraine and the world spinning and every joint screaming. Yuck. Still have a headache, but the joints feel better and the world is nolonger spinning.

And I have to figure out which dreams were real and which weren't.

Gotta love some catch 22 situations. If I talk about the problems and my depression to someone else I'm told it's called “whining”. But if I hold all those negative emotions inside they'll eventually eat me alive. Nothing to do about that I suppose…
My body aches. It's gonna take a while pushing two wheels all over the place. I do make it a point not to be travelling around at night. Too many dangers like to pick off walkers and cyclists at that time.

Peiople do get fed up of hearing about stuff they have no power or interest to change.
Also they probably don't understand that you suffer depression, a lot of people don't get it.
Have you tried something like the samaritens? that's what they are there for, right?

I had maybe 5 mins to myself yesterday and today doesn't look much better.

I don't work well without a break!!!!!!!

anyhows - nice to see you peeking in Leet!

And yeah, bravo, that dream stuff can get weird. I had the flu one time and woke up convinced that there was a client for whom I had forgotten to place an order for 10,000 silk-screend t-shirts. I was really upset; figured I'd lose my job. but then I started thinking about it: we had never ordered anything in a run greater than 500 – and to this day, I've never had a client who wanted t-shirts.

btw – skip that XXX recommendation Oz had and check into a spa for a couple of days. get the facials, the mud baths, the rub-downs – you'll look so pretty when the wife returns home. :-)

I get to go grab lunch with Carol, my mother in law…I don't call her my mother in law, I don't call her mom to her face. I call her and her husband by their names…I kinda feel bad about it. Anywho, yeah. One last hurrah before I go to my internship next week. If you are wondering why I'm not doing anything with my mom, it is because we went to lunch on Wednesday.

The problem is they both had the same game plan. Lunch and shopping…. TT_TT I got all the personal shoping done with my mom because I wasn't expecting Carol to call. And I don't know what I want for lunch….I got 1 hour and 45 mins.

Fortunately my sister emailed me with my mother's phone# in the rehab place. So I called her and found out it wasn't a dream and she was sorry to have called because I didn't sound at all coherant. But then it can be said that even fully awake I am not coherent.

We had a nice talk and now I get to see my mother in the situations I've had to note in my work reports for years. Part of the job is keeping track of who's in hospital and rehab and all and now it's my mother and not someone calling me about their mother. Yet handling all those calls for these past years has left me feeling not a little numb. I'm more accepting in person but once I'm alone the anxiety builds.

Lots of nasty ass dreams. Fortunately I'm not making any effort to remember them because these aren't worth it. If a dream is nothing more than blurry eyed confusion exaggerated into ridiculousness by my subconscious there's nothing there worth recalling.

Today was a sad day. I woke up and said to myself and my brother and my best friend at the bus stop, “Today is going to be a great day,”, and it totally let me down and was sad.
What the fuck, day?!

best thing i'd think, to do about that is dont worry about what they think so much. use your judgement who's the best to talk about these things. have you seen anyone about your depression?

man, you know what gets on my nerves? people who leave comments and all it is is pointing out a spelling error or something. fucking really? specially when it's something like “i know other people have probably pointed this out,but isnt it suppoed to be this instead of that?” then why point it out! you know what it's supposed to be AND you're assuming others have pointed it out already, so what's the point of what you say? nothing. find something useful to say.

Heh… my body doesn't ache so much after riding now. And I was able to get a little farther without stopping for a rest… if only there wasn't a crosswalk in the way. I didn't realize how fast dogs could run when motivated with the anticipation of sinking their teeth into your ankles/bike tires, though. Not to mencion I was cut off by a guy turning a corner at a red light (I was supposed to cross the street via the sign that says “walk”, but he ignored it), and even better… I got honked at by a motorist behind me to get out of the way… whike I was in the bike lane!!! *sigh*

I really should take pics of the bike I got. It was supposed to go for $188 at the K-Mart here, but the slashed the price down to $135. Now I just have to go to another sporting good store to buy some spare brake pads and shop around the electronics stores so I can rig LED lights onto the thing. Hmmm… It's apparently a Mongoose Spire, though. I miss the old Huffy bikes…

This CRT I'm currently using is starting to go magenta on me. I had to drill a hole into the back and the top to gently “tap” the assembly attached to the tube to make the screen back to normal. It'll be a short while before I can pick up my old monitor from the shop; the money isn't there yet. In the meantime I'll just have to put up with this or get an HDMI cable for my TV so I can connect my PC to it (both have the necessary connections).

And life goes on… for everyone else as it streams around me…

I just wanted to make an announcement in here that we are about 18 hours away from closing the ballots for the DD Awards. There are a few categories that can still go either way so hurry up and get in your votes before you start whining about who go nominated.

Headache rumbling in my temple… It's not due to teeth, lack of food or lack of sleep. Sinus infection?

It's either that or the strange dream I had… I started out as being a slightly corrupt entrepreneur businessman who made a mint out of a successful casino (and mob connections), and married a vapid, nasty yet very sexy trophy wife!

My massive casino was as big as a small town with everything I could have ever wanted… but I grew less interested with it and more concerned about the people working for me. I made sure they had their own hospital to take care of the sick and infirm… then I gradually took more and more interest in the hospital, till I was working there personally, caring for individual patients… It was a nasty, dirty, horrible place. My trophy wife didn't understand or care and the casino was getting run down as I neglected it and its backers were getting very concerned and thinking about managing it themselves.

It was a very stressful dream! I'm pretty sure it was symbolic of Drunk Duck.

Skoolmunkee of course! :D

Naw, I'm sure it was symbolic of the problems at DD, but not necessarily directly, so one thing doesn't always translate directly into another thing.

Anyway, I think it's more likely that my comic, Pinky TA and all the things associated with it, had something to do with the trophy wife.

I've still got that headache -_-

The key is in the word ‘trophy’ - not wife. It's symbolic of your obsession with ratings and DD trophies and the like at that time - we've all been there.
This dream is so directly symbolic it's practically News At Ten with Trevor McDonald.

I think what oz forgot to mention is that in all his dreams he has a sexy trophy wife. Flying in a peaceful sky with a sexy trophy wife, taking a test with no clothes on with a sexy trophy wife, trapped in a house surrounded by a horde of zombie sexy trophy wives….

Also,

IRONSCARF?!?!?!?!? (I missed you!)
