That's Jesus's way of punishing you for harassing those poor homophobes on the Facebook. HEY FUCK YOU PANCAKE FACE

My sarcasm key must be broken again, because I obviously didn't mean that seriously. I hate everybody on Facebook. They are a giant cross section of everything that is wrong with America and I support any and all efforts to harass, belittle, and otherwise berate them. It's definitely not you, it's me. I've been on a little bit of an angry tip this last week. I saw my shrink today, should be better from here on out.

I'm having a really difficult time coming to terms with everything enjoyable I have ever experienced. Because I don't get to experience it again.

But now you have the chance to experience new things. You can't ever go back so you might as well try and be present for the things that are happening now. Kisses, Figglesworth.

I have a very bad habit of spending too much time either dwelling on the past or anticipating the future. I really need to work on that whole "being present" thing. But I have so much awesome stuff to remember or look forward to dammit, and it's hard to focus on the present when it involves things like "doing your taxes" and "cleaning your bathroom" and not "snowy hot tubs" and "festivals surrounded by friends".

I think you should remember them all and it is so nice to look back on them, but don't be sad that moment won't happen again and let the new ones come.

I realize this is pretty dumb but…
I got so effing frustrated today. A friend and I agreed yesterday we'd go for pedicures today. So we were chatting earlier looking for a place to get it done. Her phone is dying. I finally book in somewhere and her phone is dead. So I call and make the appointment for later and head downtown and hope she gets back to me. Her phone finally stops being dead and she responds and we're on for the pedis. I walk up like 15 minutes to a car2go…. first its stuck in the snow, so I finally get it out, and as soon as I get it out MY phone dies (even though it still had 13%… and it went from 50% to dead in the matter of an hour. wtf. AND its NEVER died until its at like 2%). I vaguely remember the address she had just given me, so I plug it into the car2go gps and head over there. Luckily her name is on her buzzer (since i can't call her to tell her I'm there since my phone is dead), but that buzzer goes to someone completely different. So I can't get in touch with her and feel like a massive tool. I eventually have to give up and drive the long and horrible way home since I can't use my phone for other directions and I dont really know my way around montreal. In the snow, and during rush hour. It was just like, a massive amount of frustration. I came home and put on my unicorn onesie and I'm not leaving my house until forever.

I need a job so bad.
I've gone from looking solely for work in the field of videography, which I went to film school for, to giving up on that entirely and applying for every job I can find that isn't bartending or serving, and I still can't even get a bite or an interview. I've applied to at least 100 jobs in the last few months, and had exactly 0 interviews. I started school in January for web development, so in a little over a year I'll be very employable, but as of now I haven't had anything paying to do since mid October and it's driving me crazy. Aside from the total lack of money in my life, it's made me become a boring piece of poo with no ambition and nothing interesting ever going on, which is taking a toll on every other part of my life. The depression is slowly setting in and the whole situation is testing me as a person in every aspect. I can tell my lack of ambition is making my girlfriend be less attracted to me, which is tearing me up and making everything infinitely worse, but it's so hard to be ambitious when Fred Meyer won't even call me for an interview for a stocking job. Shit's tough.

Shit's tough. I think it is best to do whatever you have to do until you can find a better job, even if it means flipping burgers or whatever. You also need to keep learning. If exactly what you want to do doesn't work, keep working towards something you think you'll like doing. In my lifetime I progressed from wanting to be an artist to digital design to IT. Most recently, I went though school wanting to end up in systems security, but since a local organization was in need of a networking specialist, I learned everything I could about it, and ended up getting the job. I ended up progressing toward what I can do for a living, which is far from what I wanted to do in the beginning, but I enjoy my work nonetheless. I spent many years working crappy jobs to get here too, many of them being brutal labor jobs. It is not always easy, but if you work hard at reaching your goals you will make it eventually.

My Motorola RAZR Maxx HD decided to kick the bucket on me only a year and a month into my 2 year contract and a month after the 1 year warranty ended. Motorola tech support said I can still send it in for repair since my warranty ended so recently, but after a few days I still haven't gotten that shipping label emailed to me. I had to switch over to my old HTC phone that only has a couple hour battery life.

Rustuuu I'm very sorry to hear that and there isn't much I can say to make it better, but I will say that I have an extra Maysquatch ticket that is yours if you want it. I know music festivals probably aren't high on your list of priorites right now, but you deserve it for helping everyone out last year.

I know music festivals probably aren't high on your list of priorites right now, but you deserve it for helping everyone out last year. Thanks for the kind words guys. It really means a lot to me that some very nice people from the internet are willing to provide some support for someone most of you haven't met. I know I'll make it through this ok, it's just super stressful on me for the time being. I've been applying to a ton of jobs in the last few days that I would definitely love to get, I'm staying positive and hoping my luck turns around and I get a few callbacks this time. And a big special thank you Davers. I might end up taking you up on that later, but I'm still dedicated to being a contest winning champion and making this work out on my own. Plus if I get one of these jobs soon I'll be happy to buy my own ticket so someone else in need might get their chance!

And as if to prove my previous feelings right, my girlfriend of almost 3 years told me last night that she wants to move apart to have some space. She's having trouble feeling the same way about me as I do about her, and I'll be damned if that isn't the shittiest feeling I've ever had. Sorry for being such a downer lately, but it feels good to be able to write these things down instead of letting them swirl around in my head, alone, all day.

Yeah it sucks a lot, but I'd like to think I'm mature enough to not let this bring me down too much. Of course it's incredibly sad because I do love her a lot, but I can't exactly fault her for feeling the way she does. If this is the way it's going to be, then it's best for me to just accept it and do my best to try her plan to make things work for us. If, eventually, things don't work out, then they just don't. In any case it'll end up for the best with either her finding what it is that made her love me in the first place, or we go our separate ways and I can try to find someone who will not have these problems. I've seen enough of this type of thing from the outside in my group of friends that I can keep a healthy perspective and continue living my life in a positive way.
