Since growing my bead, I have stopped worrying about nose hair as the boundary has become very blurred. More of a long term solution though.

Now all you need is for the boundary between beard and hair to disappear.

Managed that one months ago.

*Beard and chest.

Having an unrequited crush has given so much stress for the past couple years.

I might have to move out east for school now that I'm not taking computer science. I have a hell of a time concentrating on anything non-visual, so the math was too taxing for me. To say the least I failed that course, and I really don't want to add another year to an already depressingly long path to a degree.

I'm going to try for video game art design. I'm already pretty good at art, which is good considering I haven't taken an art course since high school. I'm hoping that something completely visual will be better for me. I'm just not looking forward to moving to a different city. It'll probably be Montreal, which is a hell of a ways away from my city.

I feel your pain, I used to be in that situation and it sucked. I wasn't exactly depressed, but god dammit it was depressive at times. I hope you can get past that, one way or another. It'll be a huge load off your shoulders when you do.

I started an awesome one-year temp position back in the middle of February.  Great pay, interesting work, fantastic insurance, not my primary field but still pretty nice.

A couple weeks back, some of our other temps started getting poached, then some reasonably crucial permanent employees started saying they'd accepted offers in other teams.  I got worried.

Sure enough, I just got a message today saying that I wouldn't be needed after the 27th of this month.  It's not performance based, that much is clear from the way we're shuffling staff out of the team, it's just that this group is either closing its doors or shrinking heavily.  I guess "one year" is a pretty short amount of time these days, but it's sadly common for temp agencies to inflate the length of your term as an incentive for you to take the job.

...We moved into our apartment two months ago with the expectation that I'd keep making this kind of money, and I've been planning to make use of this insurance once I had a little more saved (got a fair number of outstanding medical bills and untreated conditions).  A big reason for the move is so I could live close to where I worked, but that might be out the window now.  As it is, I don't even have a month's worth of expenses saved up, yay apartment deposits.  Also, raises tend to stick, once you've started making a good amount you tend to keep making that amount...but maybe three months isn't long enough for that phenomenon to be true.

This job was a big raise.  If I go back down to what I was making before, I don't know if I can keep supporting my friend whose rent I've been paying while she waits for social security to go through.  Certainly all our luxuries are going out the window, and the fiancee is going to be very sad that she'll have to give up her personal trainer (expensive first-world luxury? yeah. massive improvement in her health? yeah).

MCA of the Beastie Boys died.  I don't care if they are before my time, I like the Beastie Boys and I hate seeing people die of disease before 60 at least.

Now I'm sad because I've been meaning to read it for several years now.

In retaliation, I'll suggest Homestuck.  It'll take you at least a few days to read, and then the madness starts.  Ignore me if you can.

I can! I've avoided Homestuck like the plague, mostly because I don't like a large portion of the fandom.

Bah. Hy vants MOAR!

I guess I'll have to work on my game/look for a second job instead of procrastinating.

Avoiding stuff due to the fans is a terrible reason to deny yourself potentially awesome things.


That's like refusing to watch the Lord of the Rings live action trilogy due to Legolas fangirls.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
