A guy in my engineering course has been treated by the police as missing and was last seen on Tuesday. Even though I've only personally exchanged a few pleasantries with him, I'm really worried about him now. D:

They found his body. I really don't how to feel about this now. I…urgh. I don't know.

Are we talking suicide? Tragically that's not uncommon at college. There was a particulary high building at my college and they eventually had to refurbish and replace all the windows because it was regulary used by depressed students as a means of leaping to their deaths.

Ironically, it was called the James Went building. Now demolished.

tragic-comedy. The ironic phenomena of popular suicide spots… -_-

Feeling so horrible, ill, and all around yick! I suspect it has something to do with the chocolate caramel mud-cake I ate for lunch and or the three doughnuts with coffee that I had for afternoon-tea.

UGH! My system just doesn't handle fatty stuff well these days. …mainly because I just haven't been eating much of that sort of thing for ages now.

I was feeling bummed out while riding the bus home today. Then I saw a man in rollerblades carrying a boom box.
Suddenly I felt ok about everything.

Belay my last, we will be working extra to cover for furloughed civilians.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe: The Anti Sprite Coalition on fire off the shoulder of Cut and Paste. I watched Top Drawer glitter in the dark near the Forumhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like… tears in the rain.

Now if Nintendo and Natsume put out a new Harvest Moon game and offered a special animal for the farm… or even better a cute plush sheep, chicken or cow I'd probably bite. Probably… :)

holy shit that's awful. o_o

——————–

Fucking spiders. We had a cold snap all the sudden and the spiders around here pretty much swarm our warm house whenever that happens. I killed a black widow(or it might have been one of those black widow look-alikes) and not even 3 seconds later one of those big brown wolf spiders comes crawling by. It died horribly.

My cat amazes me though. She's very prissy and delicate, yet everytime i find her doing that ‘cat hunch’ there's some huge half-dead spider under her. I don't know what else to call the ‘cat hunch’. Basically she's sitting still with her head hung and her face all OwO.

Stand by to stand by.

Stuff is falling apart and I getting the usual waves after wave of utter despondancy and pain.

An intervention may be necessary.

Denial is more than just a river, it also describes the current parenting strategy of my brother and his estranged wife. He's more interesting in dating again.

My drug addict brother-in-law (as opposed to the sex offender bro-in-law) just got busted for possession of crack cocaine. There goes three years of sobriety.

That's bad, AQua_ng, I ‘m sorry. :[

sorry also to everyone who’s said their life sucks, they're ill, or something bad has happened. It hasn't been the best year so far, has it?

–

I've been seized by a desperate need to ditch work and goof around as much as possible lately. This is a bad thing because most days I work at home. (Plus all the other free-time constructive stuff I don't get done.) I can be pretty disciplined but as the weather gets nicer it's been getting harder and I work slower.

I know this is an insignificant problem in the big scheme of things but I know if I don't either straighten up or force myself to spend the time and money going into the office to work, I'm going to suffer for it. But the rational part of my brain isn't listening very closely.

Brain, in 2 weeks you'll get 11 days off. So knock that off and earn it. >:[

I think this very thing is the source of the funk that has been getting to me for the past week or so.

There's just too much on my plate and when I think I've gotten something done, more just appears. I'm ready to throw the plate out the window, max out the credit cards, and try life as a no-name bohemian on some Caribbean beach.

You TOO can be (multiple choice)

Diet started at 167.6 lbs, and ended today at 157.0 lbs. my wife lost a little more than that. Starting another 30 days on monday. I ate a donut to celebrate. It was much too sweet for me, and nothing like what i remember them tasting like.

Be a homeless person on Maui. I've seen all the hang-outs and it's not too bad. Big artist community too so if you paint a couple of pictures you can make a living of sorts.

It's the wife's brother and the sister's husband. The women in the family are wonderful. Anything in the family with a Y chromosome is seriously FUBAR.

You guys need jobs where you can leave it all at the office door on the way home. :)

Work has been amping up something chronic this year for me. Last year I had a lot of lovely dead time. Some weeks I'd go into work and not do anything at all. I was Sooooo bored… I didn't know how good I had it.
Well the economic slowdown is well and truly over for us down here in Oz. Work is full on, non-stop. I haven't even got time to check on DD while at work now. :(

I'm actually finding it a little bit stressful. Thank goodness I don't take it home.

So I went and bought the all girl fighting game “Arcana Heart” for my PS2. I'm enjoying this game despite the fact that it seems dated compared to its other two sequels out there. However, my cousin wants to borrow it. No chance of that since I'm pretty sure if he ever returned it afterwards, it'd have a lot of strange dried stains on it… -_-

And now I just woke up from some weird dream… where various Drunkduck characters go up against each other. But they're not wielding weapons of any kind, not engaging in melee combat… instead they're all grabbing their golf clubs and hitting the links. And it's called… TEE-Splosion!

I really need to stop putting bits of Hershey's Chocolate and marshmallows in my coffee when I come home from work in the morning… -_-

I havent seen a paycheck this small since i was a newspaper delivery boy, living in me mum's house.

Oh well, i'm not as up in arms about it as everyone else….although if this had happened a few years ago, i'd be royally screwed.

They tend to leave you tired so in a way you take them home too.

Meanwhile, I'nm still unemployed, my wrist has been acting up quite often recently and I still haven't fixed the tablet.

Speaking of jobs, I'd happily draw comics for a 50$ pagerate (as long as I could do it in my somewhat simplier and non-crosshatched style) cause then a 10-page comic = as much as I earned the entire month of assembling tv sets.

Distance learning courses actually work… wow. Only realized this now. Used to be a heavy skeptic on things like online education and distance learning.

But then again, I must caution you that before attempting distance learning you MUST have had at least some foundation level courses and have actually been in a classroom and have actually interacted with the teacher and other students.

Also check local laws. See if its accredited by the local agency that regulates the profession. If its unregulated, distance learning is the way to go. :)

Nope. Any job where it's finished for you at knock-off time. My graphic design work is finished for the day when I walk out the door. ^_^

Nightmare headache today. I had to go and see a doctor… Throwing up green vomit all day. :(
Doc gave me an injection in the bum. It hurrrrrrrrrt!
But at least I stopped vomiting and was able to get some rest. No headache at the moment fortunately.

My job is 24/7 for years at a time, i even have bags packed in the closet by the front door. I don't know what i'm going to do when i get a job at mcdonalds, or somewhere else, where i can't take work home.

That was my one regret about buying bayonetta used at gamestop. Even though i cleaned it after buying i rarely touched it.

Speaking of creepy stains, I've won a vibrating pokemon plush in an auction. This was apparently sold at mcdonalds in japan… why. =__= I plan to clean it as well.

I like being able to work from home too much to (voluntarily) switch to the go-in-every-day model. And even then I wouldn't be able to leave it at home. Salary is salary, you're expected to do the work even if you have to work more hours than usual to do it.

It all gets made up elsewhere, it just sucks sometimes when it cuts into your time too much.


I'm exhausted tonight (in a good way), I didn't do anything particularly tiring today. I think just being out for a good few hours of REAL sunshine in england is like… a week of it, for the rest of the world.


We recorded a GREAT interview with Shadowsmyst, all about marketing and audiences for webcomics! Check it out on Tuesday. :]

Crazy day at work. Lots of special sales, customer appreciation weekend, raising money for homeless animals weekend, and easter bunny pictures.
Our district manager came to take the photos. Then she got called in to another store, and somehow I ended up taking them. : \ That could have been a disaster, but fortunately we only had a few people come in after she left.

I had a terrible day yesterday. I would like to talk about it, but it would take way too much space in the thread. Let us just say that a teacher that I have a 97 in her class found a way to flunk me in another class. (One that she normally wouldn't have any responsibility for grading me for). She flunked me for my week internship I did under her last week. So I will have to do it again sometime between the end of class and my 6th month internships. (Not the mention that I have my wedding and honeymoon during that time too.) So, yeah, I'm royally pissed at the moment. But, I'm not going down without a fight.

You see that's my issue. I have a terrible day and then I don't.


Had the show this weekend and it was great.

Made two new ‘bands’ in the show to.

One was: Three Guys Making Songs Off The Top Of Their Heads (PENIS)

And the other: Right of The Conchords: a Flight of the Conchords Tribute Band
