Hard day

[Metalbrat]

Yesterday was the anniversary of my father's death, then I find out the same day that a friend of ours passed away unexpectedly, who was also way too young. I know Sebastian knows how that feels too well. So since I see althought things have been changed, other 'problems' pop up around here and I'm sure always will at one point or another. Life is way too short for petty garbage. I knew that well before, but this just seems to 'amplify' that statement. So before you start to 'argue' when attacked, go directly to email, or pm and say your peace there. Since most moderators will always just delete it, if its offensive to people.
Its really sad how people can get under your skin, and you end up getting all upset over a 'message board'. A place that only exists 'virtually'. Its like sending poison pen letters back and forth. But in the 'real world' when things happen, you deal with it, and expect to go online to kind of 'forget' things for awhile. That gets destroyed when people start up. And I hate that too, since we've been going through alot of hard times lately and really don't want the extra annoyance. Most of the time, its a pretty cool place here. Most people will come and go, whatever happens. The sad thing is, people leave boards because of it. I stay away sometimes too so I don't have to read other peoples drama, I admit. But you come back after awhile and it will be quiet again. I hope you all take that into consideration when you read things people post that are meant to upset or aggrivate. Try not to let it bother you. Because there are too many 'real' problems in this world that you can't get away from. And 'virtual' problems, aren't one of them.

Sorry about your loss...and well said. I know I have drama on my end of the line over here, and I let Sebastian's music carry me through it. But sometimes you need to vent and let things go. I know I don't post as much stuff anymore, (mainly, because I have dial-up) but if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here.

[Metalbrat]

thanks.
On a 'good note' we're finally in our new apt. And it has more ammenities than the last one that went downhill with new owners.

[Katkick]

Glad to hear that Jo. Let's hope the owners are more reasonable than the last.

[Bazerrk]

At least you got some good news! Me too much drama over here...drowning my sorrows in booze gives you one hell of a hangover in the morning!!! But I lived through another day so that's good!

[rocknrollmom]

Drowning sorrows never works very well. And as you found out, you wake up with the sorrows still there and a new headache as well. Maybe next time you should put the money you spent on the Booze away toward purchasing a new Forever Wild DVD. At least a Baz hangover is a pleasant experience

[Bazerrk]

so true on that one. I just need to find my own place. Living with a boyfriend kinda drives you insane! Well, we drive each other insane!!

[rocknrollmom]

But being driven insane is part of the fun of life. I've been with my husband for 37 years now. Yeah we drive each other crazy at times, but I can't see my life without him.

[Metalbrat]

we just celebrated 19 years on June 3rd. (together for 26) And yeah, we've had some fights, and some days its like UGH! but couldn't live without him either. Because we always have each others 'bach'. But the thing is, u get used to living together, if you can't after awhile, then maybe you need to have your own place. Also if you've been on your own for awhile, its hard to live with someone. (My sis found that one out, starting with us for awhile. LOL)

I wish I could drink, but don't have that luxury with my meds, and because it starts my asthma up sometimes.

[Katkick]

Hey! congratulations on the 19+ years!

shit happens. get over it. and why the need to try and make everyone else feel like shit.

Yes, Steven, shit happens. I think that's been well and truly proven. But you know what else came across even stronger? Metalbrat's, Bazerrk's and Rocknrollmom's incredible ability to get over it - and furthermore, their willingness to put themselves aside and help each other out. Now that is something truly commendable.

And congratulations on 19 and 37 years! May we all be so lucky.

[rocknrollmom]

Thanks for the support and compliments, but my 37th anniversary is coming up. I know my husband 38 years. (yeah I'm an OLD lady ) There are a few very special people out there, and I think I was extremely lucky to find mine.

shit, sorry, typo.
37 years! All the more impressive!
Old? pfft. Old in body, young at heart.

[rocknrollmom]

Thanks, I keep asking how can my daughter be 35 when I'm only 16.

[Metalbrat]

Life goes on and we share what happens with our friends who are 'most' board members not 'pretenders' who aren't friends and don't care. Even Sebastian cares, (big surprise) when we 'discuss' 'life' with him.
Can't help some people are cold hearted. Our friends are there for us no matter what. The lost can't find a friend and keep them because of their bad habits and they disappear when things go wrong. Glad my friends aren't like that.
