So what happened to make me mad last blog was getting my alternator in my car replaced twice due to the first replacement alternator being a piece of shit. Let's just say someone else's mistake cost me a lot, I'm gonna see if I can get a refund, and I'm pissed.
The other thing that happened is my friend Laurie, who I've done a lot of favors for recently and who I'd say who I've done much more good by than bad, decided to simply stop talking to me and drop me as a friend on Facebook/not answer my texts. So did her boyfriend, so I dropped him as a friend and deleted them both from my contacts. I assume, which I have to do since she wasn't enough of an adult to do something besides giving me the silent treatment, that this is due to a couple joke comments I left on her Facebook post a few days ago that may have went too far for her tastes. If that's the case, she's said worse to me and this just means she can't take what she dishes out as far as I'm concerned.
The alternator I can get over and had she said something I may have even apologized, but to drop me as a friend when we've known each other for two years and I've done so much for her lately over a fucking Facebook comment (again, I have to assume) with no explanation or warning? Oh fuck no. I'm not having it.
But then I went to SGC, where I've had signatures and pictures from Angry Joe, JonTron, Keiji Inafune, DidYouKnowGaming, been to a couple Q&As, and ... got really drunk at a friend's house party last night. Like filled two trash bags with vomit and made a cat twerk drunk. More on those things later, as I'll probably write a plus10damage article about my Con experience.
The point now is I'd be lying if I said I'm just totally cool about the week I had now, but it could have been a lot worse, and I really shouldn't have bitched about it as much as I did. whatsacow and a couple other people on here have much worse crap to deal with that they certainly don't deserve, and I wish them the best. My next door neighbor's mom died very recently and he now has no parents. My life is not that bad or difficult and I need to volunteer my time more instead of sleeping in and feeling sorry for myself so often. Hell, an entire week has gone by in which I have done no research for the huge paper due at the end of this month, so I at least have to get my ass in gear for that. I need to stick to my diet and workout regimen so that I don't feel all blubbery in my midsection and get down on myself about that too.
I hate to babble on about the negative, so let's end this blog on a positive note: Holy shit, Super Mario Strikers is the most fun I've had with a video game in a while. It could also be the guy I met playing it two player with giving me friendly competition, which added that social aspect I've been missing lately as well, but holy crap I love that game.
