I just finished upgrading my PC, and I feel fine.


Yeah, when ye put it like that, things don't look too bad.

One has food, shelter, computer, four cats (one of which has a pathological desire to attack my poor feet all the time), parents, friends, the aforesaid tie collection, live in a good place, all limbs and faculties intact (well, the latter is debatable ), a good education, a degree.
One does have several big, important papers due in the next month (including two worth 50% of Honours year three days after my 21st ) and just the feeling that something is missing, somehow.

But that is fine, being an evil celibate monk. Unhappiness and loneliness is a good and enjoyable thing
Can you have schadenfreude for yourself?

I've got an assignment due today, one on Friday, and need to start / finish 3 seperate programming tasks within 3 weeks. I'm kinda feeling a little stressed. Besides I'm tired, the weather is cold, and on the way to uni today some crazy bastard driver tried to run his car into mine.

Other than that, I'm quite happy.

Guess you've never had a friend who ran into a rough spot along his or her way, have you?

Poor soul. Perhaps one day you'll find a friend and then you'll experience the joy of someone you care about finding some happiness along their path in life.

Til then...don't rain on other's happinesses.

I'm not raining on anyone's happiness. I was merely trying to make a funny remark on the things you wrote. If it was not funny, then I'm sorry, I did not wanted to offend anyone.

FYI, I have friends and I am truly happy when they are happy. I think it is good that BW is happy. Happiness is something that all of us should be experiencing all the time.

And I said that BW should enjoy the moment and seize the day. I said that precisely because I know how important a thing happiness is.

I believe we agree here.

Have a nice day.

Alex - my apologies too...I'm not so perfect to say that I can't mis-read or mis-interpret things. If I mis-interpreted...I beg your forgiveness!! PEACE!! And, if you think that was indecent... ok, I'll stop there before I get into trouble.

BW~ my friend...I'm never here when you are anymore...can't IM you. I can't get on from my new job...that's the only thing really suckie about it. I can't get to my AOL!!

I'm getting to a point where I can say I'm happy.

I've lost 20 pounds in the last year to get down to 182 (this morning). I'm a 30 inch waste (from a 40 two years ago). I'm much more confident in my love life. I've got 4 more semesters worth of classes until I get my Bachelors in Comp Science. I'm getting a 4.0 so far this semester and I've only got 3 more weeks to go!

But there is some gloom in my silver-lined cloud:

I just broke up with a girl who I thought was the one, but turned out to be a complete psycho-hose-beast. One of my cats died 2 months ago. I'm getting sick of this sh!tty record low, cold, rainy spring Midwest weather!

Things are definitely improving, though. Good luck with your new career BW!

Could life be better? Maybe, but it could also be a lot, lot worse. I figure, I'm pretty happy with my life right now, I see it as getting better as time goes on, so what's to complain about?

Ok, I can complain about almost anything, sure, but nothing major. I can even handle Bush being president, 'cause I know it's only for another 2.5 years...
