Lupis, it could be something as simple as a stupid virus bugging ya somehow... I've had a fantastic week at work, but this cold somehow has affected my mood to the point that I had to repeat "I'm signing the new contract next week" as a mantra before it sunk in and I could feel happy about it. Not in the way of "ugh I feel crappy" but more like... like feeling mellow or melancholy is a symptom. If that makes sense. Anyway, it could simply be something like that.

Either way, I think Azu has the right idea with the cookies. :D *pets Azu*

Feeling a bit better now. As of this very moment, the only things I can reasonably be annoyed by would be the time (really late... Why am I dorking around on my laptop still?) and the fact that tomorrow is Monday.
I think winter is getting to me. >.> I really, REALLY want spring.

And there's no real reason. I've had a great day. I went out with my mom and got coffee. I worked on a drawing I'm really proud of. I finished an essay that I'm happy with.
But... meh...
Maybe drawing will help... I'll start that Phase Hound avatar... Maybe start on a birthday present avatar for my WoW friend.
Meh days happen to me a lot. I guess the idea it to just muddle through them.
Hope the random Skype chat and the D&D helped some though.
... I'm very late on this subject XD

Grinds my gears that I find something I like but can't share it with anyone because they won't give it the time of day. For instance; I find a poem I like no one to share it with because they completely act like it's beneath them or "stupid" or that something is wrong with liking a poem. Can't share a song I found I like with people because "Oh that's not a genre that I like". It pisses me off to no end that people would rather swim in their own ignorance than be exposed to something new.

^- Get the same, but in a bit different form. Been talking to several people ingame about their "boredom" or "tired of others" when it comes to, well, anything. PvE, PvP, RP. When I suggest for them to try a little bit different approach (nothing specific, just to try something new) to the game or their character and being more open minded, I either don't get an answer or I get a scowl. ._.

Warning: Fun amount of ranting, some cursing.

I am really, really, really, -really- tired of this.

So I have a few friends who happen to be male. They play Pokemon. They know of WoW. We know of various video games. Today, we exchanged phone numbers (We go to the same bus stop, I've known them for years.) So one of them makes the mistake of calling me while my mom was around. She immediately picks on me because, dear god, I have a frikking male friend. She immediately jumps into the whole, "Aww-! Azu loves people!" and then her coworkers jump into screwing with me. They start asking when the date is and to say hi for them. No. It's not like that. Dear god, I don't ever want to deal with that shit. They're friends. FRIENDS. But people jump the frikking gun and get excited. And then sit there and act all surprised when I get ticked off.

Further, being asked personal questions, "So, Azu, how's this and this going?" when not once did I talk to them about it. Meaning, my mom is talking to them about it. They're people with I associate with because they're -her- coworkers. Sure, I may tolerate them, I may be friendly, but they're not my -friends-. I wouldn't sit there and go on about that stuff, because it's not really their business. Since when is it my mom's job to tell her friends about my life? When is it her business? I know, she's an adult, I'm not. She's a parent, I'm a kid. Using that, I should start talking to guildies about -her- crap, because they're my friends, and it's obviously fine for her. Oh wait, when I did, one time, I got frikking yelled at.

People wonder why I'm mean. Why I dislike people so much. It's because they never stay out of my goddamn business and leave me alone about stuff. It's -my- life, if I want to tell people about it, let -me- do it. And for the love of God, leave me alone when I have friends who aren't female. It means nothing beyond that. They're just friends.

AUGH. I seriously hate humankind sometimes.

I can understand that. I'm not very social either.

I know exactly how you feel anzu. Sadly there are far to many poeple who thing thatsa its alright to tell others all about someone else, parents in particular are notoriouse for that. (I just hope I dont do that to much with my own child as she grows up). If they keep trying to talk to you and such just tell them you only talk about your personal life with your friends. If they say they're your friend, just tell them, no your an aquantince, not a friend, theres a difference.

I dislike at work when people order food, I read the order back, and they say its right... then when they get the food they claim they "SAID no TOMATO" or "wanted a SMALL not medium" etc. Listen to what you say for goodness' sake, and listen when I read the order back ><;

Y'know, I could be doing my homework right now.
Instead I'm reading The Oatmeal.
...I think I'll just read one more. ...Two.

I approve of you reading the Oatmeal. Just sayin'.

Thanks all, by the way. I was furious earlier (Damn horomones, I was crying. Cuuuurse yooou.) but sending my pixelated creatures to slaughter other pixelated creatures helped me calm down. Talked to parents a bit...I can see where they're coming from. Ironically, it's the same excuse I tend to use. They tease me cause they love me.

...Which is funny, cause I mess with people to show I'm friendly with them. I'd appreciate if she'd stop despite me telling her not to do it, but it's been dropped and we're moving on. So yeah. Yay, mood swings being useful for once. *Feels better.*

Also, whenever I get a "wrong" order, I end up shutting up about it and moving on. xD Too scared to draw that much attention to myself.

Spanish homework. xD

*Repeats for FOUR HOURS*

Also, glad you're feeling better Azu!
