I would've thought someone might post something within the last week.

I have a good excuse. My Mom had bypass surgery, which was rather unexpected...and then the thought that she could die on the table (she didn't, but I've heard it happens from time to time.) that reactivated my latent depression which came back worse then ever. So bad that only now am I starting to feel like myself again. During that time I pretty much stopped doing anything that I enjoyed and that included cruising the internet.

Rodent of Unusual Size · « **Reply #2 on:** Jan 03, 2014, 06:40:39 PM »

I hate to hear that. I hope this means you've started to bounce back, not to mention her. I've been there, too (more the parental open-heart than depression, admittedly), and I can see where that helpless feeling would feed into that particular affliction.

So, in an effort to lighten up the conversation, did you see the full moon the week before Christmas?

Rama · « **Reply #3 on:** Jan 03, 2014, 11:40:34 PM »

Oh yeah she is suppose to make a full recovery and is so far. Me...well I think it's time I try to control this with some drugs or something. I tried that before, but it didn't work out too well. The odd thing is mine will go away and lay dormant for long periods of time and really only breaking through from time to time, and then something will happen and it comes back full bore. Been having trouble with it and anxiety since I was like 15, but this time was pretty bad and I can't see it getting better the next time something terrible happens.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, Ramalamadingdong. I've been lurking around Facebook lately, so I saw a couple of your posts there. So that's where I've been. Facebook. Amazon.com. Lurking around Reddit. Also discovered Tumblr can destroy an entire free afternoon.

Let's see... Facebook games, writing stuff, browsing Fate/stay 4chan threads and the such... oh, oh, I was recently told some very disturbing family history. I used to be kinda sad I wasn't closer my relatives. Now, I think I'm mostly cured.

As they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Or is that absinthe?

Between work, social obligations, my Ms. Pac-Man addiction, the installation of new furniture, and a new anime season, I'm booked. But I still chell forums while at work during those in-between moments. You know: while riding elevators, walking between hospital campii, dropping friends off at the pool...

B E C K · « **Reply #10 on:** Oct 14, 2014, 11:21:09 PM »

Campii. Like penii but are buildings.

Rumble · « **Reply #11 on:** Oct 16, 2014, 05:10:16 PM »

Busy with work and still trying to convince the gf that having kids is a horrible idea. Also still going to way too many metal concerts for my age.
But I still chell this forum now and then (when I'm on the toilet).

B E C K · « **Reply #12 on:** Oct 20, 2014, 10:05:49 AM »

Wait, dude, is this the same gf you had this discussion with before?

B E C K · « **Reply #13 on:** Oct 20, 2014, 10:06:15 AM »

Bah, that was my 20000 post? Meh.

Rumble · « **Reply #14 on:** Oct 20, 2014, 12:34:21 PM »

Yup still the same girl and the same discussion.
Truth be told I strongly suspect all my swimmers died from alcohol poisoning long ago anyway, but I'm not gonna play that card just yet

Rama · « **Reply #15 on:** Oct 21, 2014, 08:32:02 AM »

Been working a lot...but recently been relieved of that thanks to Jay Nixion and his holding of the state budget hostage in the state capital. Course today was suppose to be my first "new" day off...IE cutting my hours, but I got called in to work.

Don't want to burst your bubble bb but she will not stop wanting to have kids. There are women that want to and there are women that don't want to. If she really wants to have kids theres nothing you can do to make her stop, and if you postpone it , she'll grow old and at the end hate you for not having kids with her when she was younger.

You better think quick because the older you get the more dangerous it is for her to have kids. And the more fucked up your life will be (dad had his kid at 55, bye bye early retirement)

B E C K · « **Reply #17 on:** Oct 25, 2014, 10:45:01 PM »

Uh, yeah, I was gonna say the same thing. That's why I was askin' if this was the same girl. Because the ones that want to have kids and don't get to... well, Faye's first paragraph. Go back and read that. Because that. Don't know how old the chick is you're seeing, but fertility drops greatly at 35. Tick tock and all that.

Yeah I know we're working towards a break-up, but well... I think I'm just gonna drop the subject. Please forget I brought it up

Rodent of Unusual Size · « **Reply #19 on:** Oct 28, 2014, 04:42:36 PM »

Brought what up?

B E C K · « **Reply #20 on:** Oct 30, 2014, 09:39:45 AM »

I dunno. Something about too many metal concerts.

Fiero · « **Reply #21 on:** Nov 05, 2014, 12:27:11 PM »

I'm here.

Sometimes.

Rumble · « **Reply #22 on:** Nov 30, 2014, 06:37:32 PM »

Hmmmm, so yeah I'm single again (not counting this Polish stalker chick I met at a concert a few weeks ago and who now sends me 50 texts messages a day)

So I think I should go back to my true calling in life: obsessing hopelesly after Faye

(Which is like the stalker chick behaviour except without the actual effort)

I know but I'm lazy as hell

Fiero · « **Reply #25 on:** Dec 10, 2014, 09:21:26 AM »

I've been doing basically nothing of importance for awhile now.

B E C K · « **Reply #26 on:** Dec 22, 2014, 10:27:12 AM »

I've been uber-stressed with the neighbors. Apparently, our neighbor right next door got married, packed up her kids, and moved out of her house, letting her brother move in. The brother welds, works on cars, and parties well into the early morning. And he's fucking filthy with trash and dog shit in the yard. Everyday there is nothing but fucking noises next door and I bet the cops are already getting sick of me calling them. Jesus Christ. I'm not even thinking straight anymore. I left work early yesterday by mistake. In fact, I've been making all sorts of mistakes and praying no one notices. I had three hours of sleep Friday night. This shit is not acceptable.

B E C K · « **Reply #27 on:** Dec 27, 2014, 05:26:20 PM »

Ha ha, and I got sick as shit this week. I could barely move on Christmas. I slept most of the day and then missed a day of work to get more rest. Then I find out today that the woman that sits next to me was hit by a fucking car. She's walking with a cane right now. The lesson is it can always be worse. Or some shit like that.

Rama · « **Reply #28 on:** Dec 29, 2014, 12:16:23 AM »

And all she is thinking is "Oh that bitch the sits next to me is out sick...I bet she comes back and gives it to me. Things CAN get worse."

I've had most of my need to interact with other humans outside of myself filled by my girlfriend. Even my facebook post are filled with pics of chickens.
I don't even really have time to art anymore. I have too many animals and they all require attention. Especially the dog.
