My interest has been piqued by a '60 second visa application' spam I've just received.
Me: Can I have a credit card
Visa: No
Me: Oh go on, please
Visa: No
Me: But I have no money and I need it
Visa: No
Me: I'll send you a vectored photo of myself
Visa: ...well ok then, but you have to promise to repay all of the money...confirmed
Me: Mwa hahahahahaha

This includes going to fast food restaurants.
Or swiss clinics.

Yesterday my manager asked me to do something using Excel, I'm the only person in the office who knows enough about excel to do what he wanted doing.
Just after he finished telling me what was needed he told me that I will have to show the twunt who got the job I went for how to do it because he doesn't know anything but the bare basics of the software.
I laughed in his face! It made me feel good.

in an effort to cheer you up I'm going to be obnoxiously happy at you.
I'm good, I've got next week off to work in my garden, the surf looks good for the weekend, I have a lovely girlfriend with whom I am very happy, and things are generally pretty shiny.
What's good with you, or about you?

Why do you insist on having the television at such ear-splitting volumes that deaf dogs in the next town can hear your fucking soaps?
Are you hard of hearing? No, you're twenty-two, for fuck's sake.
Do the bass vibrations enhance your viewing experience? Possibly.
Does this aural assault stop me focusing on my chess game, or anything other than what she said to him, or who's shagging Tom? Yup.
Does it make me want to take chopsticks, ram them into your ears and wiggle them around until you stop twitching in your reclining chair? You bet your arse it does.

I have been battling this stupid depression since Jan. Things are getting worse every day. I am not going to do anything stupid, but I can't help thinking it would solve all my problems if I could just go to sleep and never wake up.
I know what I need to do and I can even prioitize it, but when I look at what I need to do, I am so overwhelmed I just think "fuck it-maybe I'll get lucky and die". And I'm talking about stuff that affects my very life. I'm having all these cardiac problems and I swear I'm going into congestive heart failure. I've been trying for 3 weeks to schedule a stress echocardiogram and I can't muster up the energy to JUST PICK UP THE FUCKING PHONE AND DO IT.
I haven't registered for fall classes, I'm about to get disenrolled from school 'cause I can't be bothered to arrange my clinical internship, my work contract ends Fri and I haven't done the least thing about getting a new job, I need that stress echo, I need to get into see a psychiatrist to prescribe anti-depressants, my kid's failing the 7th grade (2nd form? Whatever you're in when you are 13)and I can't help him catch up, my other kid graduated from high school and I can't get excited in the least, I'm steadily gaining weight and can hardly breathe and my knees are killing me.
Blah blah blah...
As far as I can see, I should:
1. get the cardiac appt
2. see the psychiatrist and start gulping pills
3. find some help for my 13 year old
but I just don't care. I'm too tired to eat and believe me, I don't miss many meals (being American and all...)
Help. Tell me what to do. Decide on a course of action for me.Give me some motivation. Tell me to shape up-scream at me even. Just help me out of this black Slough of Despond.

Tuesday all kinds of shenanigans documented on a post on page 166 which was a bit of an experience to say the least.
Which leaves today, ah today, getting woken up at 4am by a bunch of screaming children, then having the head gasket go on my car on the M11, on top of a load of other things wrong with it means im now selling a cornea to fix it.

My question is.....what now?
Do I stock up on Chardonnay and Bridget Jones DVD's and spend the weekend using up an entire rainforest of toilet paper crying over the fact I've lost the only man I've ever loved?
Do I man the fuck up and join Match.com?
A cynical post from CHCB would be much appreciated right now.

Ok, what's the point of those HSH threads, are they just general chit-chat and 'talk about your day' things?
I'm so tired today, I nearly fell asleep sitting upright, and I can feel my pulse in my feet, it's quite nice and relaxing, but I don't want to go sleep yet because I'll mess up my sleeping pattern.
I'm watching Ross Kempt's thing on pirates, my sky is fucked, but we have that anytime recording thinggy which has a few good HD films on, the quality of the screen is really impressive.
I'm going to bake a Lemon cake and an Orange cake in a bit, not quite sure what to do for dinner though, I can't be arsed to cook a meal, I think I might wonder down to ASDA and get some microwave pasta.
