A new thread for those times when you wake up and just feel like letting people know you are OK.
I love you people, keep well and have a wonderful day.
I'm OK!
My GF, on the other hand, is not so good.
Doing wonderful, thank you.
I'm OK, you OK?
Doing well here.
doing great here
Doing good - tired...
It's been an exhausting coupla weeks...
Doing ok here,only fainted once today :o ::) damn recovery after surgery :laugh:
Locked and loaded,ready to grip it and rip it!
Work's overwhelming today, but I'm alive and well. Gon' get my face lasered tomorrow. :)
Having a good day!
I've been busy and exhausted but everything's starting to get worked out.
How are you?
Just got up about an hour ago. Didn't really get a good night of sleep because my left thigh is killing me. Crappy thing is I'll have to go through this ache again in the next 17 days. Thank you so much, Mr. Testosterone. ::)
Otherwise, I'm feeling pretty good. Thinking to do some drawing for real today.
And I might see a friend I haven't seen in ages today, too. :D
Overall, I'm about a 6 out of 10.
I really, really, really need to get laid.
Then I'll be an 8 out of 10.
Had a busy day of rellies Birthday Parties
I'm *just* okay.
However, my lovely boyfriend got a new job (yey him!) so I'm happy for him!
:D
Gosh, I've changed my name on these forums even more than my own personal name crisis in real life~!
WOOT! Woke up this morning (a good thing in itself), and feelin' 8 out of 10 on the "hell yeah happy-O-meter!
No sex yet, though...but that's ok for now, I got other things to do, so gonna hit it hard, hit it fast, get 'er done!
:)
Another good day!

I'm trying to find a middle ground between silence and soliloquy. Lotsa drama but I feel content right now. Happy for saturday. :icon_boogy:

Betweem silence and soliloquy? That's easy! Smile! Smirk! Smooch! Hugs, Devlyn
Woke up early today, really for no reason I understand, would've rather just stayed buried under the pillows and blankets for the whole weekend. But, my wife is amazing and made me breakfast and was really sweet so I started feeling better.
The real problem is that I'm being forced to go to a "guys weekend" tonight for heavy drinking and the forfeit of large amounts of money. If the going broke part wasn't enough, the whole idea of being "one of the guys" makes me depressed, which then gets enhanced by the alcohol. So I will be drinking "rum" and coke's and acting as though I'm having a good "drunk" time instead of being all depressed.
As awful as it may seem, sometimes I wish that everyday was Thursday so I could go to work, which I have been enjoying lately, then come home to my wife and not have to be around anyone else.

That's an easy fix...go there with the money, but dressed up as yourself.
"Hey, you want my money or not?" ;)
With any luck, they'll be so dumbfounded that they won't be able to gather up your money, and instead disburse theirs to your pile...win-win I say!
;D

this just made me giggle
I woke up and it's raining! Geex rain! Haven't seen rain in months.
Wow it even has a smell!
Tried to finish putting on window tint on my car...did all the side windows ok, but the rear window, with its compound curves, is confounding this curvy wench.
I was using the full-sheet method, but I may just have to do it old-school, using 6" strips of tint across the window, with minor (</= 1/8") overlap...
Frustrating. Used a heat gun to shrink the material, but I do not have the skill to actually wield this gun in tint--window combat, mano-a-windowo...
Put together my first layered outfit today! 'Twas a heather top and a black wrap-around thing with a strap. I tied a bow in the strap off to one side and put it around my waist - the effect being that I demonstrated the presence of said waist without also demonstrating the presence of my muffin-top.

My cat likes to come over,lay beside me,start purring real loud, than quitely let one out, and its not a pleasent smell at all.... :icon_blah:
Hello Kitty!
How long until this thread turns into "What are you thinking part 4"?
I'm OK, I'm at my GF's place. :)
She's still not good though, but I'm playing nurse like a good partner should.
Today has been pretty good so far. A bag of dog treats from the dollar store goes a long way with my evil little Troll.

Haha thanks Beth. I survived, but that would have been a good one since I'm not out and most of the guys there I know through my wife. But, I probably could have made a few bucks by making it a better game as to whether I would do it.
Meh, I'm ok, I suppose. Could be doing better, but keep plugging away at it regardless of the ups and downs.
Yay! Finished tinting my car's windows, and only have a couple small distortions (bubbles) near the bottom edge of the rear window...that was a B!tch to do, even using the "strip" method...
Got a cage for my car also...However that is on a low priority to install...couldn't pass it up, low price and saved it from the dump.
Just finished dinner, nothing fancy just a baked tater, a piece of summer sausage and two beers.
Happy thoughts are being extruded from my ears as the evening goes on...
What? The weekend's over? How'd that happen?

Good morning Kim, I have Blackpool weather at the moment, cold and showers! :laugh:
Have a great day :-*
You too
Good morning from the Seattle area...0602 local time, blue skies and sunrise!
Goodnight from Adelaide. 11pm and I have had enough of dealing with people's problems.
I really do love everyone here. But sometimes it gets to you and I need a sleep.
Hugs my brothers and sisters.
And yes I will do it all again tomorrow.
Give us the rain! PLEASE! We're frying out here already and it's only April! :icon_blah:
Hey I am first on Tuesday, don't sleep much. I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone here
you bring me peace in an otherwise chaotic world. I see life through FAR SIDE eyes which helps me smile a lot and people wonder what you are up to.
When the sun comes up turn to the east and say thank you lord for you have blessed me with another opportunity. Peter
I feel good :) I've been good since I went full time. Things are kind of up and down sometimes, but overall I'm really happy ^_^
Another day of showers, but OK. I saw a new psychiatrist today, she had seen me a year ago and couldn't believe the changes! She read her report of that meeting and I couldn't believe it either! :laugh:
I feel fantastic today! :D I hope that you all do, too.

Back in Adelaide a freezing 20C :laugh:
Nothing like sunny Sydney? No.
Should have stayed longer.
I was expecting a knock on my door.
Don't catch a chill.

Much the same weather today!
I spent most of the time with Catherine but was available to one and all! Had dinner with several woman on Thursday night at Five Dock.
I'm sure you had a great time.
Snowed under by work, like ground hog day...

On May Day my daughter and I were on a train crossing the river, and I said oh look the sun on the water is pretty, and she replied with "Oh the sun on the helicopters is pretty." Lol there were four visible just looking out the window, and once we were on foot there were more cops than protesters. Leah is uncouth to put it mildly, and she started speculating loudly about why are cops so mean and are they just bored and why do people throw rocks at them and is that okay and why doesn't everybody just be nice and wow look guns etc until we had an officer following us. XD
I didn't even try to explain. I'm pretty sure we looked more like absentminded dorks than malcontents. :laugh:
am in still disbelief I was able to finally have my surgery, OMG just so happy that I could almost go scream it to the world, or share the happiness/excitement with my friends ;D but alas that would not be so wise :P :icon_mrhappy:

Just on the way out for dinner.
Geex I sort of vaguely remember a guy who never did anything, he died and I sure don't miss him
I'm OK, kinda..
Playing nurse to someone who discharged themselves from hospital against medical advice is not how I planned to spend my weekend, not is it what I signed up for. But I will do it, I love her and to do any less would not be me at all..

-hugs- kelly, I hope she gets better. :-\
Age-based gatekeeping ruins lives and is as bad as any other kind. Leah is in a social and academic limbo because she's physically a teenager but mentally/emotionally a smaller child, and I don't qualify for a lot of needed help because people in my age range are expected to be financially stable. If I were young or old we'd have access to so many programs. As it is I have a leg full of screws and a body full of old injuries and I rarely even get a seat on the bus. I'm so tired.
I would homeschool my kid if it weren't for the fact that my roommate would be furious if she were here 24/7. If I had a job that provided insurance it would be illegal for them not to cover trans care, and if I were a minor it would be illegal for Medicaid to not provide my trans care, but because I am both poor and old I'm apparently worthless and expected to stay out of sight. There don't seem to be a lot of specific rules for people between 24 and 65 in my state.
Because she has more violent tendencies than autistic deficits, my daughter is denied services that other kids like her are able to get, and so she has basically a 4th grade education and every time she gets screamy in public I have to worry about her ending up in juvy jail.
I love my daughter so much but if I didn't have her I could go work day labor or something and pay for my own surgery. I feel like she's being punished for behaviors and handicaps she can't control and I'm being punished for taking care of her.
We all mature and hit milestones and accomplish things at different rates, and gating things by age (rather than ability/need/merit/whatever) is arbitrary and cruel.
Ah I didn't realize I was going to spew all that. Thanks for the space to rant. :)
Hang in there Felix, you're a strong guy. And a good man for taking care of your daughter the best you can despite all the difficulties you're facing.
