CrosshairCollie Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Re: The cranky thread Dear Person-Not-On-This-Forum ... If you wish to discuss politics, fine, but calling anybody who disagrees with your views a 'blockhead' is not considered acceptable debating etiquette, and goes a long way towards invalidating your arguments.

Old Man Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Re: The cranky thread I get that. I try to distract myself with busywork, if possible. Cleaning, or better, working in the yard. Often, though, life is so busy and full of small children that it is not possible. Especially since it requires a certain amount of motivation that is hard to come by at such times.

lemming Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Re: The cranky thread I'm having a dark day' date=' just generally depressed about life in general.[/quote'] I'm having that sort of day too. Perhaps something to do with sleeping badly last night and having a shoulder ache all day, but I just felt down mentally. Even putting together some graphics that a few people really liked barely registered with me. Having a nice cup of tea helped when I got home.

MilkmanDan Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Re: The cranky thread I was about to post pretty much the same thing. Three nights in a row, I just haven't been able to sleep. Happens periodically. I'm not particularly stressed or worried about anything or even thinking I need to get stuff done. I just. Can't. Sleep. I get up for a while, lay back down, can't sleep. When I fall asleep, I wake up again. Last night, I finally got to sleep around 2:00 or so, then at 5:00 a.m. the kittens (who got their first night roaming free all night last night) decided it was time to play chase in our bedroom and woke me up. You're adorable, now go away before I do something that would make P.E.T.A. put me on their most wanted list. My brain has been utter Jell-O for two days now, can't concentrate, can't think. I've forced myself awake my ingesting a bunch of higher-caffeine teas, but I need to stop that soon or . . . I won't sleep tonight! Yay!

MilkmanDan Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Re: The cranky thread The wife and I are both IT contractors. My contract is up on 3/16, but is most likely being renewed. Her contract is up 6/30, and there's no way it's being renewed. In effect, there's a decent chance one of us will be unemployed in five months, and at least a small chance we both will. Do you think we could maybe see about whether we'll have jobs before we start planning flights to go visit her family? Is that such a crazy idea?

mwiggins Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Re: The cranky thread The other day it was warm. Well above freezing anyway. And around here that means MUD. I ended up at my sisters house. I called her dog over to get his ears scratched. The &^$&^%&^ big, fuzzy, MUDDY chow walked right past me, jumped into my pickup and made himself comfortable on my passanger seat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
