we had to put my pup down over the weekend. he was my favorite guy in the world. i miss him so much my body hurts. i'm just trying to figure out how to go on with regular life and not lay in bed all day eating garbage.
I'm so sorry for your loss! I know I'll be a hot mess for weeks when my cat passes (he's 19-years-old but still fairly healthy). I already warned my boss that I'll need days off for bereavement. Sending you love and good vibes! Best of luck!

One time in 2nd grade, my cat then (Cricket!) passed away and i cried so much. I wrote a poem for him about how I would never be able to love again (which my family still pulls out and teases me from time to time) and missed a week of school. I was distraught lol it was my first time dealing with death. My grandparents bought a white fence to go around his grave in the backyard. I guess we were all pitiful lol
I had another cat that I had for 17 years that laid on my stomach when i was pregnant with Xander and he would purr the secrets of the world to him (at least that's what I imagined). When i got divorced, we had a custody battle over both our child and the cat. People who don't think pets are family.... that idea is crazy to me. They're helpless and have no voice, just like a kid. They wait all day for you to come home.

I'm sorry about your dog, Bee. That sucks. And sometimes it's okay to lay in bed all day and eat garbage - that might be just what you need.

So sorry to hear, my guy is starting to develop some problems of old age so this scenario has been on my mind. I know it is tough, hang in there.

Holy heartbreak, Batman. I imagine that's about how I'll react when KC passes. He was a gift for my ninth birthday...after my dad died a few months prior, my mom got a dog for the family. I loved her but I was dying to have a cat. She finally gave in and let me have a kitten from a friend's litter. Who knew he'd still be my baby almost 20 years later?! Haha.
He does wait for me to come home. He meets me at the door and follows me around until I've given him adequate loving. He also gives kisses on demand, haha.
I got out of work a couple hours early yesterday, and decided to go home to go shower and relax a little before class. Normally I'd just go straight from work to my school (an hour away).
It's a good thing I went home, because I think I caught a case of food poisoning and it was one of the worst experiences ever. Shortly after getting home from work, I got very sick very quickly.

That sounds awful, food poisoning is the worst. Hope you're feeling better!
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
I worry about my cat dying all the time. I have this constant nagging terror of my loved ones dying, and with Rumi it's compounded by the fact that I don't really know how old he is. I got him nine or ten years ago - he was a starving stray in the neighborhood so I convinced my mom to start putting food out for him. He was a full-grown cat then, and now he's definitely Old Man status. He has a significant sag in his back, and his kidneys are starting to go, though when I took him to the vet late last year they said that even though he's losing kidney function they didn't even recommend a diet change yet. So I guess he's okay. But every day when I come home the first thing I do is check on him to make sure that today isn't The Day. It's bad. I love my kitty though.

Very sorry to hear this, beebee. What a lucky and special pup he must've been to be so deeply loved.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is so desperately attached to my cat. My cat is also in the early stages of kidney failure with no change in his diet yet. He is on medication for his irritable bowel though, haha. My vet also said she thinks he's getting senile because sometimes he howls into my closet for no apparent reason and she's tested him for everything she thinks it could be related to. Sometimes I get scared when he doesn't meet me at the door, which is always because he's on my bed in a deep slumber, but I worry that I'll find him and he'll be gone. I tear up just thinking about it.
This isn't a GRRR specific to me more of a GRRR related to humanity in general. I just read this and it really made me upset. A student at the University of Oregon filed a lawsuit against the school for mis-handling her rape allegations against 3 men on the college basketball team. The university was slow to investigate and take action, which by itself is disgusting but unfortunately too common. Then there was this part:
The Oregon administration accessed the rape survivor’s therapy records from its counseling center and handed them over to its general counsel’s office to help them defend against her lawsuit. They were using her own post-rape therapy records against her.

Why the fuck do universities have the authority to investigate violent crimes? I feel like I've heard so many stories recently about university administrations or campus police bungling an investigation of crimes of a violent or sexual nature.
Obviously if it happens in Tallahassee you are shit out of luck regardless but still... if someone is sexually assaulted why doesn't their case immediately go to the real police.

They have a brand and reputation to maintain so they try to keep problems on campus as quiet as possible. Easier to keep things hush hush if no outside police involved. Not saying it's right but that's the mentality.

my 17 year old cat had kidney failure. He kept squatting in my floor trying to pee but didnt pee. It wasn't until I got up the next morning and found where everything just gave and it was a big mixture of kitty pee, poop, and blood. It was absolutely awful and I felt so bad for not getting up and checking on him and knowing he suffered through the night. GEEZ. Gonna make me get teary eyed just thinking about lol
my friend and I made plans a week ago to go out tonight to see a movie we've been dying to see and then party because it's my last day working a 9 to 5 until further notice.... she had texted our group message to tell us she has a burlesque show on the 12th and that we should come. I delayed my response until this morning and said, "I'm going to a show at first ave that night, but we can meet up after!" she thought I was referring to tonight, and here's the conversation that followed:
her: I might pick up a shift then me: on the 12th? her: ohhhh! I thought you meant TONIGHT! her: nevermind! we're still on for the movie? me: DUH!! her: okay, I was kind of like, "rude..." but nevermind! me: baha no! I was delayed-responding about the 12th! I'm way too excited about seeing what we do in the shadows and gettin' CRUNK! her: okay... would you hate me if we rescheduled? there's a shift up and I want to work...
WTF!? she literally just said it was rude when she thought I was changing our plans. I'm so annoyed. like I can get where she would want to work, but when she just told me she thought it was rude that I was changing my plans..... so annoyed.

That is incredibly hypocritical are you kidding me? Wow I would say something personally. But I'm a very to the point friend, never passive aggressive - sometimes works, other times backfires.

I'm so frustrated. like, I totally understand wanting to work, especially because she got called off a night or 2 this week... and if she wouldn't have said the whole "rude" thing, I really wouldn't care at all because I know we can all always use the extra cash.
she went on to say "if I pick it up would you be upset? because I won't if it upsets you" - I don't to be an all out bitch about it... because again I understand that she probably should work. but fuck! so hypocritcal. I just said "it's up to you, lady"
and I'm also annoyed because 3 shifts for tonight have gone up in the last day, and I wanted to pick one up but didn't because I didn't want to bail on our plans.... now I wish I would have. and the other 2 shifts have been picked up.
I'm so fucking sick of flaky fucking people. this is why I hate living here. no one gives a fucking shit about other people or being a good friend. I'm always fucking there for other people and always get shit on.

I'm crying at my desk like a loser.
One of my biggest pet peeves (and something that was made worse by a lying ex-girlfriend) is changing plans or indecisiveness.
I am usually fine with whatever people want to do or whatever the plan may be. But when you get close to doing what was agreed upon for so long and they start switching shit around for no good reason I really get annoyed. It's one thing if there are legit things for backing out or changing plans. It's another if you're just like "Well...maybe this would be better" or "I know we said that we'd go at this time but I'd rather just go later" which is annoying as hell.
I get really bothered by someone asking me again and again things when we're driving. Okay, so we're going to take this road and then that road. We said that. No problems. Then when the person driving starts going "Hmmmm, but do you think we should go this way? I'm not sure if this is the best way. I'm thinking about what if we go that other way" and I just keep saying "Whatever, just go whatever way" but then they keep going with "Well I'm not sure. Sometimes when I go this way it's annoying, but maybe the original way is best....but then again...." and I want to pull my hair out.

This seems relevant to the topic:
I just got an email about this on Tuesday! I was going to go, but I couldn't get someone to go with me and I don't want to go solo with all the students.
Dear _______ community, As you may know ______ College will be hosting two “sneak previews” of the new documentary on campus sexual assault, The Hunting Ground, directed and produced by Oscar-nominated Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering. The film debuted last month at the Sundance Film Festival to rave reviews. _______ is one of a select number of institutions that secured the rights to preview the film before its wide release. The Hunting Ground reveals “a startling exposé of sexual assault on U.S. campuses, institutional cover-ups and the brutal social toll on victims and their families. Weaving together verité footage and first-person testimonies, the film follows survivors as they pursue their education while fighting for justice — despite harsh retaliation, harassment and pushback at every level.” The film will be screened on two dates: ... Following each screening WGRAC will host a panel discussion. Producer Amy Ziering will participate in the panel discussion on March 8th. . We believe the film and discussion will provide an important opportunity for students and faculty to openly discuss the campus culture and share ideas on preventing power based gender violence. Yours Respectfully,
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

For her to assert that it would've been rude for you to bail and then immediately do EXACTLY that - that's inexcusable in my opinion. Unless it was an emergency or something important (not just an extra shift for some cash) that caused her to cancel. I feel for you girl, fucking hate flaky people. Huge pet peeve of mine. Also hypocrisy. And this chick seems to be exhibiting both traits.
