That made my day, thank you!

That's Sid!

That's Sid!

Thanks.

Reminded last week, a PBS station out in WI had on one of those pledge drive specials where it's Willie Nelson and a few other guys performing, the program had an Asian American host during the pledge break, and a friend of my dad, bewildered by the whole thing asked him "How does that Chinaman know?" Somehow I expected my dad to go off on it like he's simply reading cue cards or whatever, but he said nothing, but it just floored me someone could still act this way.

Had to run into a bee sting today. It's still piercing through my left foot. I think the last time I ever ran into one of those was while I was a paperboy back in the 90's.

On the plus side, I'm getting the hang of Pokemon Go, though I don't totally immerse myself into it besides quick glances while walking near pokestops. I only started to play it after I bought a new phone capable of its AR mode with a gyroscope. Not a bad one at all for a hundred bucks!

My mom's doctor wants her to lose some weight, so I'm going to try losing with her in support. In addition, I'm going to try and teach her how to make healthier foods, or more likely just make healthy foods myself for her to take home. But if that happens she'll help me with my groceries and I can experiment more. I always love adding more veggies to my meals, especially spinach.

Thinking of watching some Hammer Dracula films if I can find where I put them..

Even though I know this, I still try to hold conversation with my mom even though she always cuts me off and talks about something else or ignores things I said.

Then she wonders why I don't talk to her often and confide in her.

I really don't want to sound pretentious or something but holy shit am I the only one who understands the discussion questions for this class. One other guy just barely answered the actual question and the others just went off on some almost-on-topic rant. How the fuck am I suppose to "discuss" anything with them? One seems slightly annoyed that I keep (politely) critiquing her posts/points but it's either her or the fundamentalist Christian cause everyone else barely posts and I ain't gettin' in no religious flame war.

And there's another girl, just graduated highschool probably, who keeps trying to copy my notes whether by asking or just surreptitiously glancing over. Just stop. There's really nothing the teacher's gone over that isn't also in the book, just do your damn reading.

And stop trying to 1-up everyone by jumping to answer every question it's annoying and obnoxious and no one else can get a word in edgewise

~fin~

Some people are just incompetent. I drank alcohol before class a few days ago and was still top dog in my typography class cause everyone else is dumb. Which is kind of sad.

On that, I'm almost sure at least someone in my class thinks I'm with or I'm fucking my friend. We came in 20 minutes late to class together once and another time again after. At least one person thinks we're a thing. I can feel it.

Lol amazing. Is your friend someone you'd be okay being shipped with? Cause if not, I'm so sorry.

But these same classes I complained about? Turns out the other girl is a pretty stout Christian too. And I feel like I'm an SJW or something, our approaches and views are so opposing. This is the first time I've been in a class where MY political viewpoint was the minority and its weird, but would be good practice for debate if anyone bothered replying to me. :p

Turns out i completely forgot to take my medication this morning. Gonna be fun seeing how fucked up I'll be tomorrow. Maybe it won't be that bad...

Ick. I hope its not too bad for you. <3 I keep slipping up every couple weeks with my meds, then I feel like shit because I forgot, and then I feel even more like shit because...well...I didn't take my medicine. I know the feel.

After upgrading my phone with MetroPCS, I thought I was unstoppable with my mobile hotspot/tethering not even being throttled after I went over 8gigs, now that my cycle has started over, I see it's now simply increasing every time I bother to use it with my table or PC. I really don't like the way these companies do this but I'm sure they're looking for any means to keep us in the dark about it.

I would be fine if they throttled it down to 1MB/s instead of 128K, but fat chance on that.

I'm not gonna lie if I wasn't so lazy i'd provide caps of this dumb ass call out post i just re-found from two years ago by an ex friend.
It's mostly retarded bullshit she tried to pin on me, but I'll admit I was a bit of a sperg. Already had a lot of pressure on me senior year of high school. But holy shit I'm laughing

Not that friend in particular..had it been another friend...yeah, I wouldn't give a shit :~( we're just gonna run with it.

I'll be doing some pixel work today, mostly designing a set of Phil smileys--we have so few. Up first is a carved ginger root. ...After that though, I'll be taking requests for lolcow-related pixels to submit as smileys. Can't be sure they'll be approved of course, but I've got time to piss away making little pixels.

I went to WalMart at 9am this morning to help my mom out because she's old. Everybody was fucking staring at me. I even had a guy tell me that both me and him didn't need candy.

Was going through my old youtube playlist of "liked" videos that has to stretch back to at least 2008. The more I scroll down, the more I notice the divide between the part of my life where I no longer do drugs (the newer "likes") and the part of my life where I was constantly high and watching shitty youtube videos.

I'm kind of a mess right now. A couple weeks ago we found out Rusty (our grumpy miniature dachshund) has cancer, most likely lymphoma, in multiple parts of his body. He's also got two heart murmurs on top of that and has been breathing very heavily for the past several days. All he does now is lie around and stare at us as if asking for help.

My parents just left to have him put down. I'm going to miss him so much.

My crush I had on someone previous that I thought I was over came back. It tortured me because I'm sure we would never date. Of course my self esteem went down. Idk what to do and why it keeps coming back. Meh.

My condolences. My parents have a golden retriever named Rusty who has the odd seizure, and he had a growth this summer that worried me. Turns out it's a skin tag, but reportedly our dog is the healthiest of the litter. My uncle owned his brother who died last year.

On a positive note, I bought the complete series of the original Star Trek today. Something I always wanted, yay! But I have to run karaoke at my mom's birthday party this weekend as well as DJ and cook for a couple dozen people. I'm thinking of TOS as a preemptive reward right now.

Still, my mom deserves it.

Relatable, my man. Are you friends with this person?

I can't deal. I worry over my little dachshund all the time. She's almost 10.
