The What Are You Doing Thread #7

[Haids1987]

So sorry, Deloria.

-Waiting to work on programming crap
-Surfing Pinterest
-Hungry. I want some cheese.

-Waiting for launry to finish so I can start a new load.

[Deloria]

wow Deloria you have both? That's awful. Hopefully this will improve your day to day health. How often do you have the attacks?

About twice an hour on a really good day and several dozen per hour on a really bad. As far as PCOS goes though, I don't look androgynous, have excessive acne or am overweight, so at least you can't physically tell by looking at me. The reason for the surgery is that I have a retroverted uterus with extreme mobility (hence the tightening/shortening of the ligaments) so it tends to cause contractions and really hurt quite badly whenever I physically exert myself and it bumps into another organ, which means near-constant bedrest.

Wow. There's just nothing more difficult than having constant pains and physical limitations. Hopefully, some wonderful karma will come over you ^_^

People always say that to be comforting, but the astute would point out that this sort of thing really doesn't make you want to live long enough for that to occur.

-Pouting incorrigibly.
-Being silly to Jamie.
-Highlighting my notes for my conclusion.

I shall find you! I'm such a Pinning addict it's pathetic. I need a Pintervention.

[ladidada]

well eh!?  Gees!

But--- if you're going to start yielding to self-pity, then I shall--must shake you free from it. We'll start by stuffing our face with spaghetti ice cream, run around switching garden gnomes and then proceed to write feel good messages on people driveways using chalk.... ^_^ Yeah, I know, I was a total misbehaved punk growing up....

P.S. You must try spaghetti ice cream if you have not. Just look at it's awesomeness.


- Dreading Monday
- Wishing I had a trucker hat
- Wishing I had a bowl of spaghetti ice cream now
- Reading about how a bunch of homeless kids are living in and near Disney World property. Humpf.

[Deloria]

Please tell me that's actually sweetened chestnut puré in noodle-form.

And I'm not wallowing in self-pity. I just really don't like the implication that suffering has any intrinsic value. It's my default response to comments like that. They're usually only made by people who inevitably wind up on my kill-list for being exceptionally stupid and insensitive. They will occasionally call me after they've been in bed for a few days with the flu, saying they can now "understand perfectly" what I've been going through. Frankly, I like flooring idiots with comments like that.

I guess I really should get a response for well-meaning nice people, but there are just so few of you.

Edit: Picture of what I hope spaghetti ice cream really is:

YUM. 

-Drying off
-Drinking coffee
-Pretending to study

[GrahamRocks!]

Checking back over three websites forums over and over (including here!)- POS Forums, Starmen.Net Forums, and Bulbagarden Forums. Why? Because I've posted my first fanfiction (a King's Quest 5 one!) here (and there) and am waiting for a review or a simple reply to any of the posts I've made for the first chapter.

So far, no luck. I've gotten views, but no replies. I'm a bit worried that nobody likes it...

[Deloria]

I saw the thread, opened it, scrolled through the first post, realised I didn't have time to read it then, but I did bookmark it for later.

[GrahamRocks!]

Phew! Good, I have atleast one potential reader. Reply to that thread once you read it, and tell me what you think!

-Feeling satisfied: we learned something new today in programming (enumerations) and it seems easy. Plus, we did the exercise on it and it was a piece of brownie. Woohoo!
-Wishing I hadn't finished my mocha so quickly. I yearn for more coffee...
-Humming "Stacy's Mom." Remember that song? Gets stuck in my head waaaaaaaaay too easily!
-All bruised up from shooting up over the weekend. Shooting down? (I donated blood.)

-Humming "Stacy's Mom." Remember that song? Gets stuck in my head waaaaaaaaay too easily!

I remember that song b/c I remember when my Mom found out that he was saying "Stacy's Mom" and not "Cici's Mom" like she thought for years...

When one can manage to laugh at them... I'm wondering what they are going to do when Barack Obama ISN'T the last president of the US. *tear of laughter*

I could write a novel on how much I hate the Twilight series. The writing and what it advocates. BLECH! If you want the full rant, I'll ibox it to you.

-Rocking my new Simba and Nala tshirt from the Disney store
-Downing a trial version of InDesign. I need to refresh my memory before the possible job interview next week.
-Thinking I should go eat breakfast.

Well, this particular outing was America's Most Hated Family IN CRISIS, a documentary on the Westboro Baptist[sic] Church[sic] by David Theroux, about Kansans being self-righteous, self-justify, self-agrandizing, Zionist, and hate-expelling  spouts of vitriol.

In other veins of misanthropy-, misocosmia- inducing claptrap, see Twilight, My Immortal, and so many more... (NB: These can just be depressing and traumatizing if you aren't in the right mindset for it.)
