My dearest cat had passed away naturally in our living room 28th April and whenever i am sitting on the sofa it is so quiet now

I truly miss my Kater and no more Cats or dogs at the moment for me!

So sorry for you Andy. I know how that feels...still always expecting mine to jump out from somewhere. Strange.

Thank you guys! Love that picture above.
we wanted to put him to sleep that week (old age symptoms 18 or 19 years old !) but then one night when i was alone with my sick cat in the living room's sofa. He put his head on my lap and then he use his both hind legs to hug my arm (imagine the above picture that the grey cat is hugging my arms and not the cat). So i cancelled off that week to put him to sleep but instead selfishly gave him another week. In the end, he died peacefully within our house which is a blessing.
I believe it would have been worst for me to stand at the vet's office and holding him while he is given two injection. Now we will only keep our lovely moment of him with us.

i am pissed off because I am now on my 9th interview with a company, the last 3 sessions they told me i was too expensive so they employed some one else (who I had fired twice for being an incompetent twat) and now they still want me to work for beer money, a multi billion money oil company and they penny pinch!!! project value is only 150 million USD and they are arguing about my day rate!!! the guy they employed they just admitted to me ...cost them just under 900k in his 3 months stint because of his fuck ups...fucking idiots

it's NOT a good day. it's a BAD day and I'm so pissed off cause I work with stupid incompetent people (and I'm not talking about Mr. Jimbo) who mess everything up and then it's me who has to tell the client ...! And I'm angry at myself for worrying about all of this shit because it's actually JUST work! and I wanna be back in Munich...
Let's see...it's Friday and I'm still at work!!! Argh!!! This day is going sooooooo sloooooowly.
i slept like crap. i blame it on the cute little new stuffed bear. he was restless in his new home.
so i'm tired and i have a meeting with one of my Mandarin translators before she heads back to Beijing and also some of my proctors from India and a few other of the ASQ global partners that headed up here after world confernce! bah i just want to stay curled up in my little cubical all day.

Still got this mystery illness, meaning I'm stuck on my own at home having cancelled something I was really looking forward to this evening.

And I can't even comfort-eat, dammit!
I damaged my glider landing out in a field - ground looped it.
Damage could have been a lot lot worse - got a competent guy from our club (also works for LH maintenance) to examine it & we found a few things so I have to get an appointment with a qualified repair centre (LTS for those in the know...)

I am mad because the institution that has been sending me mail for the past dozen years to my german address doesnt believe that I have residency in Germany although they have seen my residency permit. I have been talking to them for the last four months and now that I am over here in Washington, they want me to now produce my 'Einwohneranmeldung' paper and a copy of my lease. Else I won't get my Euros.

Some fuckhead was out shouting in that horrible Bavarian knacker accent at 05:45 in the back garden and woke me up. Couldn't get back to sleep - so barely 5 hours sleep. I'm zonked in work, just want to get my shit done so I can go home and get some kip before I head out on a date with a girl I rather quite like. Which I'll probably have to call off because I'm going to sleep through it. Look what you've done to my day with your roaring, you twat. Die roaring pantsless in a snowdrift you funt. I'm going to be a mumbling, panda-eyed, bag of wasps because of you.

The big always-hungry cat threw a big box of sewing stuff off the top of the wardrobe at 3:15 am. Finally got back to sleep a half hour later.
At 4:30 am I woke to a just turned 10 year old shining a flashlight in my eyes, wanting to tell me his plan of making waffles for his birthday breakfast before he took a shower with his new "manly" shower stuff...

I'm soo sleepy.

You can be treated and still live a full life. Let's face it, my diabetic Dad died of non-related cancer.

Diabetic type II isn't deadly, you just have to watch your diet and live a healthy life (workout etc) and you'll be fine.

It is friday, and it is approaching the time of the day where the clock moves at 25% of its normal speed. I've got a headache, I've not slept properly all week, I have no work to do, but yet here I sit, staring into space, browsing TT, and like every friday, thinking about either resigning and going back to live ina decent country that I actually like, or just slitting my own throat.
Life simply does not seem worthwhile on friday afternoons.

per usual lately i'm super duper tired and later i have to deal with the coworker I cannot stand!
two of my best friends are in town, but one is a pain so i don't want to see her which sucks not wanting to see your best friend.
on a good note- tomorrow we're finally getting internet/cable at home and today is one of my favorite days of the month (which my roommates laughed at me because this morning i said that may 11 is a good day to get married so they think tonight i'm going to go find someone)/

if you want i'll feel like crap and you can come deal with my coworker

cable/internet guy came late buy a few hours. we're going to fight it and try to get our first month reduced.
internet is slooooow
was supposed to get cable in all the rooms, but it's only in the living room, but that's actually fine we'll just dvr things if we cannot argee on a program.
the wii isn't working with the tv in the living room it won't work when connected directly to the tv nor does it when connected to the dvr/digital cable thingy. (it does work fine on the crap tv i have from college in my room though)
internet is iffy. it's soooo slow and choosey about if/when it works.
but oh well.
the puppy i was going to get today was gone before we got there to get it (we were getting the wii since the store only had 3 and that store was 30min away and still the closest store that had any in stock)
