The 'What happened to you today' thread

[The SheoDovah]

Found out that I am the only one in the family without a life. Literally the only one who doesnt do anything beyond volunteering and jobhunting. Kinda makes me view myself as a failure. Again. Also did a workplacement at BT and a week long course. This week will be interesting/frustrating as I'm either [&@%!] or [&@%!] and lose everything.

[Mookie]

Good luck for this week!
By "get a life", do you mean, get a "real job". It does feel good, to have one of those, but it isn't the only thing that gives you value.
I bet you have time on your side though, many months and years to get where you want to be. I'm speaking as an Old Fart).

[The SheoDovah]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL! ROOOYSTON! ROOOOYSTON! Mookie thinks that this Dovah has a life.

Sorry, i'm having a really [&@%!] day today. I literally do nothing but job hunt, volunteer and read and online stuff. I am 25. Stress is rising. Job centre [&@%!] up, potentially no cash thus overbudget even more. Yay!

Yes, I the [&@%!]. Here me be an arse of the hole. Or today was [&@%!] and i'm trying to be snarky instead of full on anger.

[&@%!], i'm not even allowing myself proper meals. One meal a day until I get a job. Why? Because sod it, i suppose.

Hey Freud you're not exactly helping. He needs a friendly ear not a lecture.

[Baloth-Kul]

Let's just cut it there. Take it to PMs if you must.

...I got off my shift just as someone threw up. Woo-hoo, not my problem!

[The SheoDovah]

For the past few weeks, I've noticed that my right knee is threatening to buckle if i'm standing up and stationary. My right hip seems to get a bit stiff as well and i seem to walk with a small limp somedays. I mean, walking it off usually works but i don't know if years of that thing has caused it or my health is now starting to play up. I'll be pretty [&@%!] if i have to worry about leg issues.

However, on a much more positive front, erm.. er.....

Damnit. So yeah,, techincally not today but probably is worth a post. I mean, my right knee threatening buckle and i am just hoping that the hip is just because of bad posture. I really don't want to have knee and hip issues in my mid 20s. Oh and i lost my card last thursday. Recovered it friday. Did workplacement. Twas alright. Just the knee and hip being the new major thing now. Yay. Also seem to be going to and from motivated as hell Dovah to self loathing, hating etc.. dovah. Along with the eye twitch being back. Also, job centre [&@%!] up. Meaning, i get the wonderful job of sorting that out and being further overbudget.

Yeah, this is the last thing i'm posting until I have something positive to post. That or keep posting and likely to get myself banned for bring down everyone's mood.

I got a better job to replace my soul crushingly abysmal gig.

It pays more. I hope that doesn't mean that it'll make me want to live less than this current gig does, but hey, money!

Maybe I'll actually be able to afford to eat like a healthy human

Good luck escaping father time. This is when my hip started acting up. It's not painful but it pops from time to time. Gonna have a orthopedic check it out in a week or so.

[Unionhack]

I should really see a doctor about my lower back issues. Years of marching band really bit me hard.

Yay! Congrats, mate!

[The SheoDovah]

Said I wouldn't post and damnit, here i am. Turns out yes, I do need even more stress. [&@%!] [&@%!]. Waaaay overbudget because of no recievement of my pittance. Got fobbed off with a number and there is no way i'll get through today due to it being easter. Next wednesday is when I can sort it out due to appointment but just...... [&@%!] my life. Weary of [&@%!] like this. So weary.

INTERNAL SCREAMING

[Unionhack]

Sometimes you forget how emotionally fragile you are.

Then you spill some sweet tea you were excited to drink after you finally get off of a 12+ hour work day.

You go to the convenience store to get something to replace it, but they're having issues that prevent them from taking anything but cash, which you don't have any of.

So then you head back home and drink some tap water in lonely silence, and then everything you wanted to do before the whole incident is just too much to handle.

I'm having a bad night. xP

[Cassandra]

Oh no; I hope you’re feeling better, now. Days like that suck.

[Baloth-Kul]

Part 1 of Baloth's tattoo OVERHAUL happened today. Will have pics when it's all finished--y'all ain't even gonna recognize.

[Cassandra]

Oh my, an overhaul? What does that mean and why did you get it?

[Baloth-Kul]

I was going to get the original fixed up, because while it looks alright in photos, up close is another story. Crooked lines, washed out details, and not to mention my arm is scarred--those red lines from the Brotherhood of Steel part of the tattoo are bumpy, upraised.

No offence to people learning their craft, but people of UESPF; do not employ an apprentice tattoo artist for anything big or elaborate.

So I have the best artist in the city workin' on it, great guy. Between his artistic vision and the fact that it was one of their apprentices that botched me, he was like "you know what? let's blow this out of proportion, let's go big." Not only am I getting the original fixed up, but stuff's being added to it. Helps distract from the flaws of the original (most of which are being worked out), and what I have so far looks rad as [&@%!].

I go back in Tuesday, and that maaaay proooobably see the rest of it finished up.

[Cassandra]

Yayay! I look forward to seeing it!

So... my car got a scratch on it mother was borrowing it to run up to the store and come back and someone not only hit her, but decided to speed off(almost hitting another car) and basically did a hit and run. There were 5 witnesses, and even a cop showed up, but because of how this damn state handles these things, I'm better off not filing a police report

Why you may ask? Because here its a no fault policy, doesnt matter who did what, your insurance will sky rocket. Welp.. mine was a hit run.. so.. I basically will be punishing myself by filing an official report. Just better and cheaper to buff out the scratch

[leroybrown]

^That's really [&@%!] annoying. Folks like this need the guillotine. 'Hit and run' usually is more damage than buffing. And I know what you mean about the insurance it's complete bs but yeah it's just considered as though you were in an accident. You can park your car in the middle of a desert but if someone manages to hit it then all of a sudden you're a terrible driver and must be punished. I think if it's caught on a camera then you can get around this but not sure.

Insurance companies are infuriating. Their whole motto is, "give me money now. Now money give. Money of yours I take. Money me now. Please money. More money now me please."

Someone hit and run my truck once and it was awesome. They had a minivan and they backed into my ball hitch. Muhaha karma mother [&@%!].

[BetaB17]

Well, because of where I live, even if it was caught on camera or had a police officer back my claim, my rates will still shoot up no matter what. It's [&@%!], yes, and there are no exceptions. All are guilty(unless you hit and run and never get caught)

But ya, mine is just 2 setd of a scratch on the back bumper. One that can absolutely be buffed and polished out, the other might need like, a touch of paint

[Unionhack]

I almost lost an entire choir of 60 foreign kids that I was in charge of today. That was great.

[Cassandra]

Thank goodness only almost. My question is... how?

[Unionhack]

So with the festival going on, we had a children's choir from New Brunswick coming in that ended up getting here an hour late. So when they contact us, we have NO CLUE where they are. So I have to golf cart all over the damn city FREAKING OUT that these kids who flew over a thousand miles down here that I was supposed to meet ended up being MIA.

Luckily I found them after the third or fourth heart attack.

I love this gig so much.
