I am losing a family member to addiction in a way that is so highly visible that today I could hardly keep it together. I cried my eyes out sitting in my office parking lot, feelings I have a hard time processing let alone accessing. Get help, if you can.
I'm so sorry to hear this. I lost my dad to addiction. He was 52. It's awful because in a lot of cases, you can't be close to them in their final years/months/days and end up with a lot of guilt for not being able to help fix them. Feel free to PM me if you need a friend.

That's so difficult. I have a family member who has been struggling with addiction issues for a while now. I guess that is something more and more of us can say these days. It really sucks.

In way less serious GRRR news, it turns out that area rugs are also far more expensive than I want them to be. I found a perfect one last night, but it was $550. I did not purchase it.

This is the worst. I lost my dad to addiction several years ago and there are few if any things that have made me feel more helpless. Let me know if you want to talk or just vent or whatever. It helps.

Obnoxiousness of some people in this forum is really wearing me out.
I dunno what people/threads you're specifically referencing, but there's a reason why I only venture into certain areas most of the time.
That seems like a good idea, and that's what I used to do when I started posting in this forum. I think I should focus on doing that again soon. Otherwise, I'm just gonna stop posting.

I'm sick of playing games when I date someone. Can people be more honest to each other? Is it really that difficult?
I hate liars. Although I did get called a "fucking liar" yesterday because I knew I was going out of town so I lied about the book closing date. They thought they were closing two publications while I was out of town but it is only one and the other one will be done when I get back. I think it was a relief and annoyance that the book would be going when I was back.
Long story short. Liars suck unless you need to motivate co-workers.
EDIT: didn't realize the thread I was in. Sorry you are dealing with liars.
I've had a really hard time finding a job here. I didn't look right away, then Australia basically shuts down between December to end of January, so there was a big dead period between late November till early February where I didn't get any responses back at all. Then last week I got 3 interviews. I bombed one of them, but the other two went amazingly well. One is perfect for me, it's an integrated producer role at a well known ad agency, so it's right in my field and would be a great long term career path for me. The other one pays really well and wouldn't be the worst job, but it's not what I want to do and it sounds really stressful. Glassdoor says this place has a lot of turn over too which makes me think that the company isn't that great. I don't think I'd even be good at it, tbh.
However, the ad agency hasn't even posted a full job description yet so they're barely starting first round interviews. He already told me I'd be brought back for second round interviews, but who knows when that's even going to be because they haven't even posted the full listing yet. So I have no idea when I'd be starting, let alone if I'd even get it in the end.
The other job made me an offer today to start on Mach 12.
I've never been so disappointed to land a job. This job just doesn't feel right for me and the other seems perfect. But I've been jobless for so long now that I'm in no position to be turning down anything. I've accepted the position, but I'm trying to figure out how bad I'd feel if I tried to continue in the interviewing process with the agency and then just quit this job if I get that one. Would that make me an absolutely terrible person??
edit: and yes, i know this sounds ridiculous to complain about getting a nice paying job. But I already did the "stay in a job you don't like because it pays really well" thing and it took a lot out of me. It's why I went back to school and it seems silly for me turn away from a job in my field just bc I need a job right now. But I can't turn down a sure thing to hold out for something I may not get. It's just frustrating how these things work out sometimes.

Monie. I don't think it would be terrible of you at all to take the job you want if it is offered. You need the work now, but you should definitely take the opportunity if the one that will make you happy makes an offer later.

This is where I'm at with it. I'm just hoping I can find a way to interview with the ad agency still now that I've accepted this full time job. And upon reading more Glassdoor reviews apparently the company is really really not good, esp with time off. So it seems that leaving a few hours early or coming in late so I can go interview may be out of the question... Fingers crossed the ad agency is cool with doing evening interviews... :/
Small GRR overall, but I’m tryin’ to scoop me up a ticket to David Byrne when he comes to town fer a sold out show. So I’m usin’ StubHub fer only like the second time ever and found one I’d be okay with price wise and seat wise (‘cause it’s my man DB and I’m gettin’ as close as affordable), and so I select said option. Then the app tells me, “Oh hey, we found a better seat fer like $30 more.” Of course I’m like, “Dope! GIMME, GIMME, GIMME!” Attemptin’ to check out it tells me the number of ticket(s) I want is unavailable. So is it tellin’ me this better seat is part of a two or more ticket deal? WTF? I’m just not tryin’ to spend over $350 on a single damn ticket!

I'm sick for like the first time in year. It's been a good run, but jesus you also forget how much being sick sucks. Also, you can't take ANY good cold medicines while breastfeeding, so that's freaking great.
Front tooth filling either broke or fell out. I HAVE to go to the dentist. It won't be good and I am pretty sure it is going to cost a small fortune, which I don't have. We have the shitty dental insurance of all insurances.
On February 8 I injured my shoulder working out. I rested it appropriately (which when you work out as frequently as I do takes some serious resistance). It never got better. I’ve been working around it and it severely impedes my workout. I went to the doctor and they said I need physical therapy but my insurance doesn’t cover it anywhere near my school. I’ve been getting fat and losing muscle tone and it is driving me crazy because I was in the best shape of my life before this. I just want to look and feel good again. I had made such big strides in the past year including gaining 30 lbs of muscle

Shitty feeling. I am dealing with something similar but not as intense. I got offered physical therapy but because my mom was one I opted for the take home exercises instead. Have you researched physical therapy exercises for your shoulder? I would definitely look into that if I was you, but you are going to have to rest that shoulder besides the recommended ones to help it heal.
Just remember this, you will never get back into the shape you were in and want to be in if you don't rest the shoulder. If you feel like a fat ass, then I also suggest walking when you would normally exercise, just to keep yourself a bit active.

I run a few miles every day. I just keep eating a lot of protein to attempt keeping on my muscle and I’m not working key muscles so I’m getting some belly fat

I would cut back a little on the protein and watch my sugar intake. Sugar is what causes belly fat. At least that is what my trainer always told me.
