    I went went a couple of days without it and nothing. I drank some this morning and nothing. Maybe its not the problem. Or could have been just a stomach flu.

    I'm frustrated, trapped, and depressed. I can't find a job in this shit hole town and I can't move without extra income. I could get cheap 2 bedroom apartments if daughter dearest didn't have her dog but I won't force her to give him up. Moving out of state isn't an option, but no one is hiring. I've been looking for years and no one is fucking hiring. There are all these supposed job holes but no one calls. I've had 3 interviews in the past couple years tops.

    @Venixion are you actually in Cali still too? If so, that must suck? But I don't know if the cost of living is good and it's just the housing that is crazy. :p

    Pretty shitty weekend, honestly. I got news this morning that my uncle passed away. He was sleeping in his chair in his living room, fell asleep, and died. Growing up, he was the coolest dude, other than my dad, that I had known. However, not only do I grieve his death, but I also mourn the man he had become these past few years. He was so angry, hateful, and vitriolic. He was racist (He used the N-word with a hard R) and bigoted (He would call gay people the F-word). I'll always wonder what happened to him to make him so hateful and toxic, because I can definitely promise y'all that the rest of my family isn't racist. Nobody else in my family uses the bigoted words that he used. I'll miss him, but I'll forever wonder why he was the way he was.

    uh oh, I just had a package that left the nearest distribution center near me, where I usually receive things 2-4 days later...head towards another distribution center 700 miles away...that doesn't bode well.

    Follow up to what I posted a few days ago. Turns out the man who shot his wife and himself was a former classmate of mine from high school. Unreal.

    I cannot stress enough how much I hate my technical writing class and how glad I am there's only four weeks left in the semester.

    It's all remote and so unbelievably boring. I barely pay attention, Magoo my way through the assignments and I still have a 98% in the class. There is so much more I'd rather be doing.

    Oh I disagree. I'll take work > school any day. You gotta like your job though. I could understand if you're doing something you hate. But then you should probably think about switching careers if that's the case.

    Considering I'm going on 31 I've had my fair share of both. This class wouldn't be so bad if I could actually go to a classroom and participate.

    It's worse when you have to teach it online, students think your available 24/7. Had one student e-mail me at 1am, then proceeded to e-mail every 5 minutes for 2 hours asking why I wasn't responding to him escalating it till the e-mails said things like he thinks I should be fired. By the time I woke up the next morning he had contacted my boss who was asking me why I hadn't responded to the student and how unprofessional that looked. When I forwarded him the e-mail chain and explained I was sleeping last night, my boss had a talk with the student. But I wasted almost 2 hours on the mess and then realized I hadn't even eaten breakfast yet. Need to stop checking my e-mails first thing when I get up.

    Do you have family close by that you can lean on during this tough time?

    I hope you are okay. All these depressing news can take a toll.

    Oh I'm fine. In actuality this really didn't affect me. When I heard who it was the first thing I thought was yeah, I could see him doing what he did. Feel bad for the kids though.
