Talking to my Sister on the phone, which I hardly do. She's always either working or at dance rehearsal. Now that she's laid up she spilled all the beans.

It would be really nice, rail company, if you would actually accept the password you have logged for me. Failing that, if I, in desperation, click the 'forgotten password' button, in order to get a new password that you will accept, it would be nice if your site would accept that one, too.

ETA: finally! Hooray!

So, yah, I have no job
and my mom finally got tired enough of my worthless ass living in the rental house and not helping her at all in her plans to Save The World through Organic Gardening that she found someone who would,
and not only that, she'll PAY RENT, TOO

and the wonderful, talented and nice girl who is moving in with her lovely husband and children, who wants to help my mom on the farm and will pay rent, looks younger than me and has degrees in botany and Art!
wants to be friends with me
even though the mess I left behind me while moving out was disgusting, but she's not mad at me as a person, just at the situation, so that makes it OK
and in the meantime I am spending 3 mornings a week at Adult Day Treatment at the community mental health center, where the walls are saturated with disease, poverty, despair
and full of people who oh my god I didn't know it was physically possible to be this f&%$ing stupid
and feeling horrible even thinking that because it's like kicking mentally ill puppies minus most of the cute
but still choking on the shame of the fact that I'm in class with these people
no, not even class, it's fucking daycare
and eventually I'm supposed to get some sort of medical coverage but right now nobody thinks I'm broken enough that they want to pay for my worthless ass
but they are so nice and accepting, those people who run Adult Day Care, they don't mind if you solve most of your problems by punching holes through the walls or your wife, let's just think of a more productive solution for the next time you get into that kind of situation!
And I got so fucking tired of all the gods-damn Acceptance that I came to the conclusion that anyone who accepted me just had standards that fucking low,
starting to see any kindness or complimentary thought towards myself as the same kind of bullshit they keep shoving down my throat to Improve My Self-Esteem to the point where I'll get a fucking job,
OH GOOD JOB you are now capable of flipping burgers for minimum wage
and have remembered every time today that that goes in the TOILET
Look at that, now you can't say that you've never achieved anything!

This is what I did not post on the Shift thread, yes indeed. Also, my head hurts and I can't find the advil. And I feel like a jerk for ragging on the mentally ill. I don't care, though. Hell with them, and social workers too.

I don't want this. I don't want any of it. I just want everything to leave me alone.

Oh, Nat...I believe that letting it out, especially in a place like this where you know people care about you and aren't going to judge, is WAY better than keeping it inside, but that's about the best I have to offer at this point.

*hugs* Vega..

Because there *is* such a thing as a condescending asshat. Acceptance doesn't remove the condescending. *hugs*
And you don't need condescension for your "self esteem" either.
If that makes me sound mean, so be it. Rant if you want to. None of us will juge you over a rant hon. Being talked down to is *damn annoying* an being binned with the Terminally-stupid is also *damn annoying*.

mangled with terms like facilitator and networking and interpersonal communication,
you've overseen it all, and broken up a few bar fights, to boot.~

No, you didn't ask for it, and I can see why you'd like to just kick it all over.

I'd like to kick the asshats who aren't covering your medical yet.

Gah! I have such impressively, spectacularly stupid moments, everyone should just stop talking to me because contact with me might shrink your brain.

Hey, boyfriend! I've been waiting for you for two hours AGAIN and you haven't shown yet. I have something to do in an hour, and I had several things I could have been doing for the past two hours (including sewing a dress, seeing a friend, and getting dinner with my father) that I didn't do because I was waiting in front of the computer for you instead! I know it's morning there, and I know you've probably overslept or something, but I wake up for you every fucking time I say I will, at exactly the time I say I will. It's getting increasingly difficult for me to not feel like I'm being stood up...

...and pissing me off like this, do you really think it's wise considering how rocky our relationship has been for the past month? You know all those second thoughts I've been warning you about? This is the shit that causes them!

Get your bloody act together!
