I saw a pic of someone who had actually destroyed their gift just to make their parents buy the right one (I forget what it was but it was big, flat, and electronic). I was like WHOOAAA DUDE CHILL. I felt so fricking bad for those parents.
Unrelated, fucking sick again.
Again.
Like, month and a half after dealing with bronchitis.
Throat's sore, I'm hot and clammy, had a lot of stomach trouble, my sinuses hurt, I'm starting to cough and hack, been consistently tired and fought the need to nap yesterday cause when I did the day before it had really messed me up. Gonna go and see the doctor tomorrow if I can get in cause the crap that's coming out is discolored again. Just bleh. Ugh, bleh, ugghhh.

Was feeling tremendously better and everything was normal with my yesterday so I was like 'yeah this probably was just the flu and its going away now cause I've been keen to take care of myself since catching it.....'
Nope.
I have an infection again.
Again.
AGAIN.
Cause bf got sick at the same time I figured it couldn't of been one cause he just has normal cold signs (cause I had signs of mild fever I figured mine was the flu) so I thought we both caught something from someone at the christmas party. I never rode transit with him so the party had to of been ground zero if it was a contagious virus. But nope, while he got a cold, I got another fucking infection.
First of all I'd like to ask... given that was the first time I had been around people I don't normally see like, more than a few times a year, and the last time I was out in a crowd of people in two weeks..... WHERE ARE THESE INFECTIONS COMING FROM?????
Is my damned body out to get me or something??????

I worked on Christmas day T.T I get one holiday off where I work (we're open everyday of the year)
I think it's funny that you guys talked about spoiled brats earlier. All my parents got for me for Christmas was a $20 gift card T.T *sighs* It sucks that I spent more money on their presents than they spent one mine...and I make bare flat minimum wage T.T and I always felt that presents were supposed to be more meaningful. Not just a gift card. Oh well. My parents never really gave much on holidays anyway so I don't know what I expected.

God so much drama and making up and heartfelt conversations and rants going around my Skype group today and while it ended on a good note.... I think.... I just feel so emotionally drained.
Edit: While we're on the topic of Christmas! I got clothes this year. I did get a lot of nice clothes, so it's not really all that bad. I love them all. I had just been begging for something to connect me to wifi for months now, and was really expecting something along those lines. I also had been led to believe by a lot of my family that I'd be getting an Ipod. After YEARS without an mp3 player, finally somewhere to put my music! But as it turns out, I didn't get that either. Felt -really- bad because I saved my smallest present for last, expecting that to be it in its box or something, and it turned out to be a pack of underwear. So much disappointment in that moment X_x
ADULT situated NSFW, kinda rant/story about this evening...venting to.
I am not sure if I will be able to make it another year with my Boyfriend...The last year has pretty much been trying to "shrug off" his disrespectful attitude and meet his " I am the center of the world, warship me" attitude with an indifferent shrug and dismissal.
Today was DnD night at my friends place, and Phil kindly offered to pick Kayla up on his way home, since the game started at 6:30pm and he was off at 7pm. That WAS nice. So DnD ended at 9:30 and I was home a few minutes later (they live a building over). Phil was in the bath, and come out at 10pm. He see's me home and the firt thing out of his mouth isnt "hello, or how was the game? or did you have fun?" or any other greeting of the respectful kind...no, not even a hello...the first thing he says is "Sex now?" and tries to nudge me towards the bedroom...
I deflected him by saying I wanted to get something to eat first, I hadn't had dinner. His response was to make an angry grunt sound, storm past me, and respond to any inquiries from me (like how was kayla?) by grunting. He also does this thing with his bottom jaw (juts it out) when he's angry.
So I eat my pasta, and then sit down next to him on the couch with a piece of pumpkin pie, and I say (politely) "I know I've said this before, but just in case you've forgotten..."
he cuts in "I am to tired to talk about it."
I responded with "your ALWAYS tired, that's nothing new. But I am going to say this anyways. If I come home and you do not great me nicely, like a person, if you just want sex, the answer will always be no. and if you just grunt, that is not attractive, and I have NO desire what so ever to have sex with you when you act this way. So try to treat me like a person and not a sex object." Then I ate my pumpkin pie and browsed DA.
I do not think that it is unjust or wrong of me to expect to be treated as a person. I am Me, I am not a just here for sex, I am a person and I will be treated as such. And if he doe not figure that out...soon...Then I will have to grit my teeth and take kaya, and go through a custody battle.
But I can no-longer just shrug it off, I WILL be more vocal about what I do not like, and I will hold him accountable for his actions.

It really grinds my gears. Due to receiving some Christmas money, I could finally afford to play FF XIV and yesterday I was too stubborn to work, I really wanted to get some game time in there, so I literally just sat all evening and played XIV and... Why do I always have to get into new video games right when work is due in? It doesn't help that I have absolutely no inspiration for this course anymore either and I just want it over and done with. Urg.
I feel terrible, because I remember how great college was, how excited I was to apply for uni and how proud my mother was of me when I got my place. I was so proud of myself too, it's probably the biggest thing I've ever achieved with my life. And now I just... don't want to do it anymore. :/
Family tradition is everyone gets whatever they want for dinner on their birthdays. So far this year birthday dinners had been stellar, very enjoyable considering the different tastes. My birthday was on sat, not that most people in my life remembered. My mom asked what I wanted and I told her nothing overly hard or expensive (feta stuffed pork chops and rice with rhubarb bread) first thing was dinner gets moved to accommodate a friend of my parents then dinner was nothing like what I had requested..we had pork but it was so heavily pepped I could barely eat it (mom knows I am not a big spice fan). Nothing else was even close to what I asked for and because they were screwing around with friends most of it was over cooked. I HATE having a birthday this close to Christmas the only thing I really looked forward to was dinner.
Ughh, Makoes, your BF sounds... kind of like my dad. Don't take that in a creepy way, my dad isn't creepy. But the "I don't want to talk about difficult things" and "I'm tired that gives me the excuse to be a dick" and "I can't say nice things because I DIDN'T GET MY SPECIAL THING" all sound exactly like him. And I can't tolerate him. He can be nice, but then he pulls all that crap.
I'm really sorry you have to go through that with a child, too. Poor kid- I hope he either smartens up, or... the custody battle goes well. Because you deserve a lot more than what he offers.
The way they did female Transformers in the comics I think is cool. Arcee was the first female transformer because the scientist Jhiaxus wanted to give the Transformer race genders! and seeing as it's a race of asexual beings it's screwed her up big time (because she was was forced and she did not choose on her own free will)
I saw someone going on about how that's sexist and stuff but I don't see it as that. Like if it was a Transformer being turned into a male it would be the same! Just because most Transformers look like males does not make them male. They can look like anything! in the comic history Arcee is not the first "female" looking one, she's the first Female one, the first to have a gender. Least that's how I saw it.
She only got treated differently because she was not natural anymore. It would be if like someone made a human into a fish man. I doubt they would get treated the same too
That and she is totally a crazed murder too that don't help her out either!
