41. The kind of stuff that is boring on the Internet.
But seems much bigger in real life.

Work, friends, the difficulty in being human. The usual stuff.

:hug:

49. here's my woe for the moment ...
A guy at my part time job who's been flirting with me for the past 2 months left the office this evening and instead of stopping to chat like he usually does, he walked out with this other woman who works there too (they got into separate cars, but they walked out together and talked for awhile in the parking lot - yes I peeked :hide: ), then 5 minutes later he called me from his car (apparently so she wouldn't know we 'talk') 'how was your day' blah blah ... and was ON HIS WAY TO MEET HER FOR DINNER.


:mad: :wtf: :spank:


... now tell me yours. PM is ok :)

Like I told hippiechick, it's the usual stuff. It's kind of hard being a person now and then, isn't it?

Your hug is most appreciated.

72. Thank you, TOhioLiberal
I appreciate the hug, and the beautiful painting. :hug:

If I go into too much detail, I'm just going to rile myself up again (and believe me, it's easy to do in this situation).

Let's just say I have to deal with an offensive, patriarchal a**hole once in a while, and was told that my reaction is the problem, not his behaviour. I should point out - some of it is from people I considered friends. Other accusations and insinuations against me - I feel betrayed. Not that they have to side with me all the time - they don't - but he is a belligerent, ignorant so-and-so.

His behaviour, while acknowledged, was dismissed - but not my reaction (ie being offended; I didn't swat him or anything). I'm not one prone to jumping to the -isms, but I have a feeling there could be a hint of sexism, or elitism (he's some scientist).


There's so much more to it, but I'll leave it at that. I won't be able to sleep for getting myself worked up again so late.


Thanks for your concern, hon. :pals:

79. ME! I do! I had a rotten day!
I kept losing things. I got yelled at. I was insensitive and I knew it.
the only good news came at the end of the day: my car isn't quite so completely f***** as originally thought.
A hug would make it all go away
