Sorrow : I played DotA 2 with the most incompetent team I've ever found.
Sorrow : Finally got to where I needed to go in Dark Souls 2. After 45 minutes of work, I died at the hands of 3 common level enemies. 45 minutes of work all for nothing.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Dark Souls 2 seems a bit easier than the first though, so I'm kind of angry with myself for dying. But, there's always tomorrow-... Er, today!

Sorrow: My budgie passed away in her sleep last night. I knew it was her time too, she's been very ill for the past week and the vet couldn't do anything to help her. She's very old, after all, been with me for >10 years. Had her since she was a hatchling

Re: Joys And Sorrows
I'm sorry, DeepSkyCyan. I truly am. Pets really are a big part of the family and they leave a hole when they pass on. I'm sure you did all you could for her though and that she appreciated every moment you spent with her. *hugs*

Sorrow: I punctured my hand on a nail coming out of the staircase trying to grab a dog's leash as she ran up the stairs.
The stairs were carpeted, so I lost track of where the upholstery nails were.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Have to say Shadowstar it was a completely random person. Just came up to me out of the blue. I thought she wanted to be a friend because she was interested in my fox tail...I knew I was wrong when she said "bye cutie" blew me a kiss and then later phoned me asking if I had a girlfriend. My friend confirmed that she was totally flirting with me...much to my chagrain...and of course fear and horror.
I don't really like anyone in that way. I'm fine with being friends with people but I can't really do relationships. Not my thing so I never flirt with people, never give them the wrong idea, just say neutral and friendly to people. Nothing past that.
I've been getting conflicting sides of view from all my friends, Obbl. Four different friends ALL of which know I don't do relationships have said either a variation of "GET IN THERE" Or "Would you like me to pick up the phone and tell her you can't?"
Which is lovely and I would love to say to her no myself, because it is something I do not want or cannot have for the time being, but all coherent thought process is lost and abandoned when I am suddenly thrust into a new situation with new people. For now I wont phone her, (I have no time in the day and am too tired when I get home to) wait and see if she phones me again at some point and I will attempt to be all like "Sorry but I can't." But if she asks for solid reasons, even though I may have them, I WILL trip over myself be incoherent and completely mess it up. *Claps* Thanks brain!
Perfectly fine with being friends, but I cannot be put into a relationship at this point in time. Probably even for quite a while now. I'm getting quite a lot of "Why the *swear* not you moron? messages from all my loving friends. Butt heads.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
If you're honestly not looking for a relationship, then tell her you aren't interested. If she asks why, tell her that there are things going on in your life at moment and are too stressed for it.Wolfy wrote:Have to say Shadowstar it was a completely random person.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Obbl and ShadowStar23 have it right. If I may also offer a piece of advice, you can always memorize the phone number of a local restaurant to give to people. I know it sounds like a jerk thing to do, but hey, no awkward explanations needed when they call not-you. :VWolfy wrote:Horror. Well it is safe to say the greatest fear of my life has come true. I've been fearing this day for years now, hoping it would never happen...but it has. Someone flirted with me and is intent on being in a relationship with me. And I'm too kind and socially awkward to give/make up reasons why they shouldn't. Ffffffffff.........
I can make up reasons to stay away from them through the weekdays. But they seem pretty intent on it. Needless to say I am rather scared. *Huddles in a corner crying* Why couldn't the safety last?
Of course I don't recommend doing this to someone you want to be friends with, but I jest.

Plot twist: They work for the restaurant and know the number.
Joy: I think all of the Theater lighting I've been setting up for the past week is finally good to go. As long as no bulbs burn out, I shouldn't have to climb another ladder for a while.

It's a musical called "Baby." In all honesty, I'm not a huge fan of it. The music isn't bad, but it's nothing special either.

Joy: I keep seeing fanart of korra with the new haircut she gets in the next season and I can already tell there's going to be tears (of joy or pain), epicness, and feinting. This is mostly due to the fact that korra will be showing her last season starting October 3rd.

The words "No" or "I'm not interested right now" will also suffice.
Confront the issue; human interaction isn 't this dichotomy of being in a relationship or not knowing someone at all .
If you do pull the number switcharoo on someone you're not only "fixing" the problem, but you also might be hurting someone who just wanted to get to know you.
