Give me strength

Hating my new job. Exhausted with the new owners and I can never finish anything which is personally stressful for me. I have a chance to possibly rejoin my previous company, which was at the time the best job I ever had. Give me strength to be graceful and persuasive in the interview so that I can return to what I do best.

Trying To Not Be Mean

I'm in a ten-year relationship that will likely implode in the next few weeks. We've tried to make things work and to save this thing - a lot of talking and expensive counselling. But I'm pretty sure it's over. I'm feeling sad and hurt, and I'm trying very hard to not be mean, even though I feel have a pretty solid case for it. There's been some meanness coming at me from the other side. I'm not talking violence here, just some hurtful words and neglect. I know that "taking the high road" is a very noble thing to do...but I'm worried about the temptations of the "low road." Great - another summer about to be ruined...

Pick a lane

You can't do both. You can't hold back love and then refuse to let go. That is exactly what you're doing. You won't let go because you have genuine feelings. But withholding those feelings is not love, and I can't love someone who holds feelings back or withholds love. I'll never love a person who does that, especially when they hang no to me while holding those feelings from me. If you want to withhold your love, then there is no reason for holding on to me. You're hanging on to something that isn't happening because you are withholding love. I won't love you and no matter how much you hold on, I will eventually be with another who can and will love me the way I wished you would. That will happen no matter how hard you hang on. Holding on when you won't love is a waste of energy. I It's like refusing to water a plant while refusing to let someone who'd want that plant to water that plant. You're needlessly killing the plant that you wouldn't water anyways. Everyone and everything suffers needlessly. What is the point? How is that love? You hang on because you love, But what is the point of hanging on, then, when you won't allow that love at all? If you want my love, it's time to stop assuming that showing your feelings will backfire. Either show them to me or let go once and for all. Because as it stands, you are hanging on to nothing and whatever you think you will preserve will be long gone thanks to withholding your feelings, turning me off by refusing to let go as you do. So pick a lane.

Worse than speaker phone…

…is when people take a call in their car as they’re parked, and instead of switching it to the phone, they leave it on Bluetooth through the car speakers. I so love having to listen to your entire conversation conversation at full blast as you sit outside my place while I’m trying to work from home. Even better when you do it late at night when I and the rest of the building occupants are trying to sleep. Just lovely. So considerate of you.

I hope they're okay

I moved from the Island like 22 years ago. I started doing grocery deliveries out of Park Royal Mall among other stores I was contracting to in West Vancouver. I worked there for maybe half a year but I didn't stick around. While I was there I met this nice blonde hair blue eyed girl in a nearby store and we'd chat each other up every so often. So after over 2 decades I haven't really given any thought to this person but lately they start showing up in my dreams. Here's the kicker; quite often but not always when a person I use to know ends up talking to me in a dream it's someone that had already died.

Tired of whining

It's like being middle class is terrible right now. You're just watching your future drain away. If you or people you know didn't make money during the 90s, you just don't have access to it. I seriously hate how the government signed us up for Davos neoliberalism. We don't see a benefit from this at all. I'm tired of complaining about this, but it seriously is not working for anyone in Canada.

Cucumbers are a necessity but super expensive

They're really expensive at the store. I don't want to buy a $3 cucumber... I don't want to buy like 10 cucumbers in a giant pack together for $10 either, as they will go bad. When I eat them, they get my system running. I don't want to pay endless amounts for vegetables to relieve constipation from watching too much mainstream news.

Did you ever ?

Did you ever get the feeling that someone is purposely fucking with you ? Keep in mind you are a totally rational person that does not believe in any Hocus Pocus but the things that are going on make no sense. I'm here to tell you that you can't drive me insane but you can piss me right the fuck off. You really don't want to do that because then I turn into a Wild Card. Expected the Unexpected then !
