GRRRRR! RANT HERE! RANT HERE!

I am celebrating my birthday with a rant (to be posted later). Life doesn't suck. It is the people who ruin the world for the rest of us who suck! RRRRRRRRR!

non-specific, generic rant... rant, rant...

actually...

no, i shall be specific. i dare say i shall be celebrating my birthday playing minesweeper, for hours, and waiting for it to be late enough for me to have a glass of wine and then be too drunk to stay up. rant, rant. i was going to orgainse a birthday party (in a pub), but no-one will turn up, and i'll be even more depressed than i already am (been slithering down the slope since october - end of november saw the final straw). it's bloody horrible when no-one gives enough of a toss about you to bother celebrating your birthday. i was going to do some retail therapy, but that involves going out of the house, and so probably won't happen.

whinge, whinge, moan, moan.

as if christmas wasn't bad enough to contend with... come on, neuroman, let's be the miserable birthday bastards. december the 28th is the feast of the holy innocents. i vote we change it to the Feast of the Holy Terrors.

sometimes, i really hate everyone and everything. including me.

dear me - a glass of wine was obviously a bad idea...

Happy birthday you two.

This time of year is just a hassle for so many people to begin with and then a birthday on top of it!

Know that you are appreciated here and probably more than you realize in real life.

Here's a rant for you....

I am starting to get frustrated with my therapist. When I was considering going on medication, she was all supportive, but when I decided otherwise, she started treating me like a walking ball of diagnoses. She tells me stuff like "the world will never change for you" to justify pushing medication on me. I also noticed that she's all sugary sweet when I'm self-pitying and self-hating, but when I express any desire to change things to suit my AS needs, I get crapped on.

:evil: :evil: :evil: One more bad session and I'm out of there!

Rather than rant, Happy Birthday to you both. I will enjoy a nice glass of red wine and toast you both, while watching Dan Akroyd in Christmas with the Kranks!

You two are way too awesome not get saluted on your day!

Re: Rant and birthday wishes


I hate this town! I hate not being able to walk outside my door without some dude harrassing me or the fear of being robbed because of this small city having the crime rate worse than Chicago. I hate there's no intellectual stimulation anywhere and no beach to swim at or calming surf. I feel that I'll never find a job I can keep more than two months without being layed off, fired or the company going out of business. I hate not being able to afford the move to a more productive city (even one abroad) with more to do than going to the mall that's way out and that takes two hours to get to by bus.

I just want to be in a city/country with far more professional jobs than the service industry, warehouse jobs that are in abundance here and a public transportation system that's actual transportation and not some bus that stops running at 6pm, if it runs to where you want to go at all and leaves you stuck at home or worse, stranded far out since you have to call the cab company three times within three hours just to force one to pick you up. :evil:


Whew! Now that I've got that off my chest....

Happy birthday Vivi and Neuroman! Don't think that no one cares about your birthday because we do. Spend it however way you want, not just how society thinks you should celibrate. After all, it's your day, not anyone else's.

It sucks to be me.
Not because it is my birthday, but because if you were me you would think life sucks.
It doesn't.
And even though it sucks to be me I insist on having fun
Nyaaahh.
So there
Still
It sucks to be me.

world stands still:
this is progress.
geometric i think
crushed out dimensions
two to fit
this is normal.
this year i will have
infatuation
attraction
this year i will have
employment
payment
this year i will have
friends
family
this year i will have
nothing.
this year enjoy
nothing
this year do
nothing
do and fail
enjoy and lose
i have illusions
untrue
as feelings
logical
as thought
true
as despair

hmmm...

that's one of the reasons i try not to suibscribe to this whole "new year" thing - too much pressure for the new year to be something better, more special, etc.

just carry on living life, i reckon; keep your expectations/objectives/aims/resolutions reasonable and achievable, but don't allow yourself to spiral down into that horrible vortex. hark at me - as neuroman well knows, capricorns are the most perssimistic of creatures, and the most prone to depression and negativity.

so this chirpy, optimistic version of Vivi is trying to show another cappie trait - pragmatism.

this year will be better, sweetle - i'm going to have Gaultier, and i'll let you have a photo of me wearing it - how does that grab you? ;) :P

it will be better when i get home.

my car is broken and i am hoping to get it near my house before the wheel falls off. there is a grinding noise and the car swerves when i brake.
my coworker gave me a headache within minutes of my arrival here.

and off to another emergency room to do an eval because my co-worker is too lazy to go. he is faking work so it seems like my turn. and complaining how tired he is - he got here at 7pm; i got here at 3pm. and he has been a jerk the whole evening, swearing at clients and saying bad things about them in front of other clients. i asked him to be quiet because he was bothering a client's son and he said, "let him take some valium" right in front of the person.
this is why i need to find another job. if i complain about this person's behavior it will be excused. yet i am not fit to be a crisis clinician because i am odd.

and because i am going to do this eval i will be here long after i was supposed to go home.....

:roll:
the car is not broken - it was ice buildup in my wheel well. You'd think I would know. I was religious about cleaning the crap from my old car.

my co-worker is gone, leaving me to work in peace without swear words and without a constant monologue about how clients should not come in to be seen just because they feel bad :!:

I am having a cup of tea - nice and hot, soothing and calming. Does wonders for my ADHD symptoms.

And, I confess, the idea of Vivi in gaultier was cheering :wink:
(still not sure how to use emoticons - let me know if i confused anyone)

WoooooooooHoooooooo!

My 16 hour shift is done.

At this point I am making a pitiful $23 an hour, but it is not worth it. Too glad to go home! I am thinking about consulting with a fashion expert and actually buying some clothing. Like someone here I am a thrift store shopper, but you can get some great things. Normally I am either preppie or grunge, but I am re-considering urban cowboy, mainly because I'll only need a shirt.

we'll see....
