Uh oh

[blaah]

Hmm. Tomorrow I have to take a bath, look up some job stuff for my mom, finish laundry, and be ready to go back to 'nona for four days.

 

[hide]Tonight, went offroading briefly with Josh while he talked on the phone with my brother's friends. Being in Josh's truck makes me miss everyone getting along. There's no reason one person/one relationship should make everything so messy and prevent others from maintaining the balance they'd had for years. One of the best nights of the summer was when we went on a forever long drive (me, Cyndi, Josh) all over the place. We started out by going off roading in the place we went tonight. Not too extreme since Josh's truck always has issues. After we drove around a bit and noticed a funny noise, we stopped in a parking lot to figure out if something was stuck somewhere (eventually, Josh found a twig weeks later). We then went up a highway and turned onto a random dirt county road. Windows down, country smell, clear sky night. The whole time, we were all talking about where we'd like to live and the things we like about being out of town. After a few random turns, we found our way back to a highway we knew and then drove in some huge loop to end up at a park/zoo (just the road leading to it). The whole drive, we were obnoxiously singing and everyone was happy and comfortable being together. When we stopped, we sat on top of the truck and threw change into the creek. I don't remember whose idea it was but someone pulled corn stalks and we were throwing those in too. We were easily amused. After that, we drove through the town near there, stopped at Kwik Trip for their stupid energy drinks (when Josh would buy stuff for Cyndi) and drove back. At this point, Cyndi was half asleep, but she was listening to us (or so she says). We then went to McDonald's, Josh bought us food, and we went back to the neighborhood to sit in the street. We ate, left one of the wrappers out somehow, and I stayed at Cyndi's. The drive had been over two hours and we'd been outside an hour or two before it and about an hour after.

 

I miss when everyone could get along, when your feelings for one person didn't dictate your feelings toward anyone else. I miss when people would make simple decisions. I wish people would be civilized and not act like little kids. I hate how immature the relationships I'm exposed to are. All of them have people giving up multiple friends from over the years for one person. Yeah, I've left people behind and I have no relationships to blame it on, but it's not the same when you isolate yourself to be with that one person or that one person is extremely jealous of everyone else you spend any time with. It's stupid. I hope someone will be real with me and tell me when they're disappointed in me for how I change myself for someone else, if I do so. I hope I can be myself though. [/hide]

Zoe, you see this? This is a good post. If all of your posts were like this, I'd read them. Anything is better than the cats, I guess.

Oh, right. The goatee threw me off.

I've been browsing 4chan a lot lately.

[Psycho_Robot]

Ok guys, bear with me for this one...

 

Nothingness.

 

I hope it's true that your spirit and shit can haunt places. Cuz, I would do that just for kicks.

If ghost shows are to be believed, all ghosts can do is make people feel slightly uneasy, and do light lifting.

 

Laundry and tea. Back after that

What kind of tea do you like best? Iced or hot?

 

Society always seems to sort of give women the short stick. As much as men might like women to be pretty... We don't have to do shit for our image while we expect them to spend a crapload of time dressing up to be 'presentable' from age one.

 

I wish fashion wasn't such an obsessive thing, and I wish it was something that both genders shared. Men need more cool clothing.

 

EDIT: Not that I'm siding with the sister here, I'm just saying I think that's what made this a problem for anyone in the first place.

I second this. And it reminds me of this particularly powerful advertisement:

 

You guys constantly post those videos and I never watch them.

 

One day this week I woke up to my alarm thinking "is it time to get up?" and immediately my mind went "NOPE CHUCK TESTA". It was odd.

Then we're not posting them for you, you see...

 

im going bowling with some shipmates at 1700. entertain me until then.

Pfft military time.

 

suggestions for new topic title please

Ya got butts?

 

JESUS CHRIST WHAT THE [bleep].

You should post whatever video that was in the private discussion thread

 

Killer, are you watching Fate/zero? You should. It's pretty good so far.

I've been watching it with my room mate. I got to the episode where Lancer and Saber were fighting, and then the big muscly guy shows up

I love blaze. I wish he'd post in this thread more.

Blaze is sexy.

 

In New Vegas I just found that researcher lady in Vault 22. Descending deeper and deeper into Vault 22 was pretty creepy.

Is that the one where there were all those plant monsters?

 

I've reached that point in the day where I become super depressed for no reason.

I get super depressed at night for no real reason. I just need good distraction to get me through it. Thats where TIF comes in.

 

Somebody draw a picture of me in paint from memory. I'll use it as my facebook/tif profile picture if it isn't obscene or anything and you can tell it's me.

 

It won't be announced.

 

We decided it would be nice to relax the censor a bit, we figured you guys could handle it.

This decision in picture form:

Have you told your friend how you feel? Give it a try, you could be surprised

Shut your damn mouth. Zoe's drama is fascinating.

[blaah]

I don't like change. I'm afraid of change.

 

I was gonna go to bed at like, whenever I posted last, but I can't. I stress myself out before bed. I wrote in my ipod diary dealy, which I haven't done since July, which means I've missed major things. It's not just a diary, it's a Dear Cyndi. It's a secret. I tried to tell her I had it when I made it July 2010 after our first major meltdown but I haven't said much since the few days after that. Basically, it summarizes our lows and the things she's done that have hurt me or that I've disagreed with. It's messed up.

[Psycho_Robot]

I'm telling you Emily. Talk to her frankly about why you think she's wronged you and why you think her behavior isn't alright. What have you got to lose?

[blaah]

I can't have that conversation with her over text. Besides, I can lose her if I do it. I'm barely worth keeping around after the drama with her boyfriend over time, if I become even needier then what's the point?

[Psycho_Robot]

Don't sell yourself short. Its entirely possible that she has no idea she's hurting you so much, and would be horrified to learn that she was.

[Monk]

All the interesting people you see at a McDonalds at 3 AM.

[blaah]

She was given one reality check in August for saying those horrible things about me not meaning anything because she had him. My mom, the neighbor, and her aunt are among the people who talked to her about it. Since then, she hasn't wronged me in that way, so if I complain now, she'll probably see it as whining for no reason and pointless jealousy. Want to know the truth? I am jealous of everyone who has a boyfriend/girlfriend who puts them above everyone else. That's not reality, but reality isn't doing me good right now anyway. If I had the social skills and self confidence, I'd go out and get one of those boyfriends. Someone to tell me they loved me, someone to put my interests first, someone I could depend on. Someone who wouldn't make me cry all the time. Someone who I could talk to about everything, including the things other people do to me that hurt me; lately, I've realized that Jessie does a lot of the things Cyndi does. She handles herself a lot better, but I think part of it is that her actions bother me a lot less: I've never been as close to her or any other person as I have been to Cyndi. And part of it is that she can hang out with me AND her boyfriend at the same time.

 

I just don't think it'll help at this point. If she expresses any sort of concern for my feelings, I'll tell her the truth; but until then, this is my problem, not hers.

 

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about if they break up. She's ruined a lot of things since she's been with him that she won't be able to get back. She works for his parents, and she's going to quit her other job and work ONLY for his parents. I don't know for sure if she'll immediately come to me and want my support or if she'll isolate herself further since he'll probably throw in some bull about how I have something to do with it. I don't know. I don't think he thinks anything of me anymore - hopefully he's let it go, since look, she picks him - but still.

 

I'm pathetic for caring so much. I'm broken. I don't have enough people in my life, but I hate filling in spaces with names and faces. I have a hard time getting to be "friend" status with anyone, and it'd be really rough to get someone to the dependable stage. I don't have it in me.

 

I hate this, freaking out over all my problems when I should be asleep.

[Psycho_Robot]

Why do you think that she will believe you to be complaining for no reason? You have a very valid reason - her boyfriend is trying to drive a wedge between the two of you, and she's not putting up a fight about it. Talk to her about that!

[blaah]

She's completely taking advantage of me for being a friend and loving her unconditionally, I know. But lately it hasn't been about the choice. I mean, yeah, this weekend she went to see him over me, but she said that was because she wouldn't see him the weekend before and she'd see me the weekend after, which now that situation is blown up and ruined. I don't know what evidence I have. I have no logical argument that hasn't expired due to time.

[Goonstalf]

Well shit, I killed a Nali priest out of habit and I just realized he was supposed to open up a hidden door for me. Usually these kind of essential npc's respawn after a while, but this guy hasn't for some reason. I saved too, so I might have just [bleep]ed my main save file.

You still feel as if she's not making time for you, and no matter how you look at it, she's not. She's just crossing her fingers and sacrificing a chicken hoping that some time for you will manifest itself out of nowhere. That's a valid complaint and something you should talk to her about

In what game? If its on pc, check console commands, usually there is a command for respawning vital npcs. If its on a console, start playing it on a pc

[Goonstalf]

Unreal Gold, for PC. I tried console commands. It's a Steam game.

 

Oh well, I'll backtrack and "play" the level over again and see if I missed a lever or something to open the door.

 

I'm almost 100% positive you needed the priest. I did the last time I played through, but it was on a easier difficulty setting so I dunno.

[Psycho_Robot]

Have you tried "summon nalipriest" in the console?

 

http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/927553-unreal-gold/cheats

[Goonstalf]

I did and the guy just started cowering and stuff. It's got me thinking that it's not this door I need the priest for, it's the next one. It still doesn't explain why this door isn't opening.

 

I caved in and checked a walkthrough (this is my first time playing on hard) and it said the door should just open automatically. Mysterious.

 

 

 

If worse comes to worst I can just noclip through, but I would feel bad about it.

[Psycho_Robot]

not your fault if its a glitch. That's been my philosophy with Fallout 3
