    I have to make many invitation calls today for my job. I have to prepare my professional phone voice. I have to pump myself full of black dark roast coffee. I have to engage in adulting. But there is money to be made here.

    It just occurred to me that I have not had a single bite to eat today.

    I hadn't either until midnight. Stress will do that to you. Hope you've had something to eat now.

    I hate pain. Pain sucks. I am not a physical masochist. If physical pain gave me pleasure, I would be very happy right now - but it does not, and I am not.

    Diagnosis is gout. I will survive. I just have to lay off my favorite foods.

    (sorry. Gout is not fun. And I know some about giving up favorite foods.)

    Now go out and buy a jar of organic black cherry juice. Put it into the back of your refrigerator and forget about it, until the next time your foot starts to hurt- before it begins to swell up. Not as effective as Allipurinol, but it's nice to have besides NSAIDs to subdue the pain.

    I may get it once every one or two years...being mostly vigilant about what not to eat or to do so in moderation.

    Gout? Okay. Maybe that's been a bee for awhile for you. Maybe you will finally get relief now.

    Right foot is in a ton of pain, is red and swollen, I am going to a clinic directly after work today and a friend is driving me, I made it to the office OK on the bus but now it is just pure pain.

    "I´m dying doctor."

    "don´t be unpolite! you have to wait like everyone else!"

    2 hours later

    "patient? I now have time for you"

    assistant: umm doctor. the patient is dead.

    doctor: oh. okay. that means I can take my quitting time earlier.

    (exaggerated but still)

    Sounds like gout. If so you'll have to become aware of the purine-rich foods that trigger it.

    Diagnosis was gout. I am working from home the rest of week while starting allopurinol after this vicious flare up ends. My boss is understanding about this - she saw me struggling to get around the office today.

    I am thinking of skipping the family Thanksgiving gathering this year. My sticky-fingered cousin and my narcissistic aunt will be there.

    Good idea. How about a happy Thanksgiving without the blood sucking energy draining relatives rerun. Plus it will only contribute to feeling not so good. And holidays are emotional enough. I don't get invited to my mom's but maybe that's a good thing.

    sticky-fingered? what does that mean? doesn´t he wash his hands? xd

    Parents who abuse their children, and then turn around and use chemical restraints on them when they start showing signs of displeasure at what is going on, should be imprisoned and stripped of their parental duties.

    "I didn't raise you like this!" followed by the later-in-life "Why doesn't he want to talk to me?" is the karmic justice. It's always sad when you see old folk whos family basically forgot about them, but statistically I know some of them had this coming.

    I am coming to realize that the job I have now is the first job I have had in my life where I am not seen as disposable and expendable.
    Metalhead
    I vow to live for my own approval. My own standards. My own values. No more will I be handled like clay unless I personally allow it. My boundaries come first. A man without value for his own boundaries is a man lost in life.

    Keeping my sobriety my top priority. Sticking to my healthy living routines. Bringing back my criticism website. Realizing my family’s opinions have zero relevance in how I should live my own life.

    Despite what my mother wants me to believe, I am not a horribly bad person who offends everybody just by existing.

    You are taking your power back by refusing to believe your mother's brainwashing which held you captive because it suited her insecurities to control your life. :(

    I am making buffalo wings for dinner. Complete with sides of fresh carrot and celery sticks, and blue cheese.

    I can chip in with olive oil, which is currently as valuable as gold. for salad maybe. I heard that you have to eat carrots with oil, so that the vitamin E (lipophile) can be released with that fat and processed. don´t know if true.

    besides that I have not much to offer beside ready-meal food or have eaten it already.

    Does anybody want to play Diablo II or III with me tomorrow on the Xbox One to help out sick kids?

    I don't have any games or gaming consoles, and I suck at video games, unfortunately :( But I really love that you are doing that. I think you are an incredibly kind and giving person and it's rare to find people like that.

    Thank you for all your efforts. I only have a very old Gameboy handheld thing with only two games. But l played it to death.

    If I still had an Xbox or Diablo I would’ve signed on, bit late though. Hope you had fun just the same. :p

    My life was wasted so far to the altar of a woman who wishes to keep me eternally infantilized and I have only myself to blame for that.

    Why do you feel shame? It's not your fault.

    Eternal numbness sounds appealing.

    Your boss triggered you back to your mother. The ankle makes you feel helpless and puts u back into learn helplessness, a situation that comes from being battered when you lived with your mother. I think if you break down these triggers, it helps you understand why you are feeling this way perhaps?
    Aspychata
    Aspychata
    Your boss took you right back to your sweet trigger spot. How can you talk to your boss to alleviate this situation and make you feel more in control?
    Aspychata

    I would tell my boss, l need to work remotely for 2 weeks, because my ankle is swollen and l need to stay off of it. (Since you feel like you might quit anyways, you are just throwing the dog a bone). Good luck. I am sorry you were so triggered.

    Wow! No wonder he seems so chill! :) I'm not into rap music but from what I've seen of ol' Snoop he's quite the eccentric. Probably quite fun to be around :)

    I feel clinical depression dragging me down. I want an eight of Mary Jane to cheer me up. My sponsor is telling me not to buy one.
    Metalhead
    Today sucks. I feel like smoking a fat cigar. I will go out and buy one right now. Vices always help out when the day sucks.

    I would like to "smoke" and drink alcohol with my buddys, even when I don´t do this most times. but not alone. I´m in anticipation to see them (and not (only) because of the "smoking" and drinking lol).

    talking about which comes to our minds, in an relaxed setting. with moderate and reasonable consumption.

    99.9% of the people in my RL situation would be happier if I dropped dead this very second. I know this to be true.

    Even if that was true, just to frustrate their hopes, you should keep doing well.

    Peeing on their future tombs migth be a fun goal.

    Maybe if I win the $1.6B jackpot tomorrow night, I can change my name and my face, disappear and become a reclusive billionaire, spending my money on hedonism.

    Back in the office five days a week for the next six months. They told me I was too important and valued to be working from home. Could be worse, but I hate the morning commute.

    Stuck downtown because the last bus driver’s bus pass card reader was broken but he insisted it was my pass that was invalid. The pass worked half an hour ago on another bus. That driver is a jerk face.

    You should file a complaint if it’s possible.

    The pass worked on the next bus one hour later. I filed a complaint.
