Wow...it's been forever since I've posted ANYTHING on here...maybe this is the start of something new, too bad it's not under better circumstances.
I read about the shooting at VT all day. It's painful, even though I don't think anyone I know is there anymore. Why do people do shit like this? I think it really is beyond my comprehension...I pride myself on being an understanding, emotional, empathetic person, but this I cannot understand. If you hate your life that much, I'm sorry. I don't think suicide is ever the answer. It has caused a lot of pain in my life in the past year, and it isnt something to joke about and it hurts a lot of people. But if someone is at the point in their life where it is either A. commit suicide, or B. Murder a bunch of people and then commit suidice...
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. Save dozens of other people the pain of losing their life or the life of a loved one, and choose option A.
In other news, it rained like crazy, but I didnt have any trouble getting in to work. Everyone else did, but at least I didnt have to deal with any down trees or anything.
So...since I havent been on here in ages, here's a quick, sloppy update on life for anyone who cares to read -
- Work is going well. I am working under a different supervisor than when I started, and we get along great.
- Dennis' work is going well too - he got promoted in March, yay.
- The kittens are also good, although I guess they're not kittens anymore. Bauer is slightly overweight, but we're watching it and hopefully he won't get any bigger. Apparently male, orange tabbies who are overweight are like super predisposed to diabetes. I do not need another diabetic in my house, for the love of god. If I have to give my kitty injections I will just cry.
- We're getting sick of the crappiness of our condo, but since we can't afford to buy a place, we're redoing the dining room next weekend. Yay.
- I'm potentially starting a freelance job tomorrow, thanks to my friend at work who does all are production work - he needs someone to write for one of his freelance design gigs. We're meeting with the owner of the company tomorrow so she can meet me.
- A week from Friday I will be in upstate NY with my parents getting ragingly drunk with my mom as we travel from one winery to another. It will be super.
I guess that's all for now...I'm sure there's more, but I can't think of anything right now...
Anyone want any updates on anything particular??
