I just want this situation to be resolved, have a job, less stress and some security for a little while. I don't really think a dollar less an hour will matter, given the shorter driving distance. And staying with the same company will mean a lot.

Why does Adulting have to be so complicated??
 
I'm slowly learning that anger isn't always the right response.

Does that mean I won't lash out in anger? No, because I will. I'm human.

Does it mean that I'll do better to control my fiery, hair trigger temper? Yes.

I don't know if this will help or not, but I say it with that intention.

I have always been a very angry person. I come from a family of very angry, violent people, from a culture of very angry, violent, criminal people. Very back-woods, meth smoking, shotgun toting redneck kinda stuff.

I actually had a religious experience because of being angry. I asked god to bring me teachers who could help me learn how to forgive and stop hating.

I had this sudden influx of people who were so different from me, as to be alien. But I had to deal with them and learn to be civil. So after a while, I found that I was able to put my self in their situation in my imagination. I could feel empathy, if not sympathy. (or is that the reverse?) It helped me to do that, it releived a lot of the anger.
 
Why are the side effects to so many medications stroke, coma or death? WTF? :eek:

Sounds scarier than it is. They're required by law to report all adverse reactions that occur during a clinical trial, whether anyone can prove they're related to the drug, or the condition, or not.
 
I'm thinking my butt is dragging today. Maybe I should have doubled up on my morning coffee.

I want to invent a medicine where the possible side effects include: projectile diarrhea, spontaneous human combustion, and the willies

I'll put together a list of people you can slip it to. We'll start with anyone who has a dick pic for an avatar. :D

I find it helpful.

I'll probably never be a religious person, I've been around it all of my life and it's never been for me. With that being said, I don't bash religious people and I think that religion can really help some people if used in a kind and compassionate way.

I definitely share the kind of family (for the most part), not so much violence as it is red neck tweakers who steal or scrap copper for dope. I just inherited my father's temper except I know who to control it better fortunately.

If I ever do have a religious experience, I hope it teaches me to better control my anger.

I think that is honestly what this site has done for me, exposed me to a wide range of people that I wouldn't have met any other way and that even if I disagree on politics or religion with them, I learned to stay civil so I wouldn't make this site into a negative place for myself and everyone else.
 
My oldest graduated HS last week and left this morning for a 2wk European adventure.
His flight leaves in 15min to cross the big pond and land in the U.K.
Pit stop #1.
Talk about some anxiety bubbling inside me.
