ummmm

maybe it's easier to find solutions to problems you don't associate with your identity .. when the problem is 'yours', the ability to solve the problem feels more linked to your image of self than if it belongs to someone else .. your mind entertains thoughts of the impact an inability to find a solution would have on your self-image (and eveyday life) and it's harder to approach the problem with a cool-headed attitude




yeah, good point... plus the emotions involved and so on...

What's the worst thing when the negative aqua side comes through?

Ave been dealing with my more negative, dark traits, and dang it, it's annoying. It's driving me mad!!!!
And the boredom is doing me in!




When I get in that type of rut, I ride it for awhile and then I force myself to snap out of it.

Get out more, keep yourself busy, take your mind off it, aquas tend to obsess... good luck.

I got sick a few days ago too. Like pretty sick. Started out with a slight non-productive cough. Then came the sore throat (I mean sore as fuck) and fever. I went to the doctor quickly and they prescribed anti-biotics and cough medicine. So in the last few days I've sported a low grade fever and this morning I woke up with my nose totally encrusted lol. I loathe being sick but I also view it as a challenge to get better.
So it's saturday morning...I feel better (I feel like I don't have a fever) but I have that 'after sickness' weakness, if you know what I mean. Needless to say I won't be teaching today...just sitting on my butt and trying to relax. Unfortunately I wasn't able to stay home and relax but I will be leaving work in a few hours so it's not that bad.




Hope you feel better...

Hi love. I do feel better but I caught it early. I wish I caught it even earlier. Now I'm at the stage where I feel better than yesterday but still a bit weak. Even a little thinner 😛
I am 80 percent myself right now. 😄

Good! Give yourself the rest to feel 100 % .... I notice for myself, I get sick when I'm burning the candle at both ends, feeling stressed or whatnot.

Hi, my name is Heather and I have been game free for 1 in 1/2 year!! hahahaha

yes I am announcing it like recovery because for hardcore gamer nerds like I was, it is recovery 😄



HAHA! Oh I get people telling me that ALL the time! They say I need intervention lmao! Truth is I don't really play that much but when I DO I do it as fast as I can haha. Le Efficient Gamer. I'm on the fence about those videos about how people's lives are better without games, my reasoning is that they weren't playing in moderation or balancing other priorities of life *shrugs*.


I swear that's not a lot of 90s 😛

Anywho are you guys feelings better? I think my nose has graduated to dripping slightly. Also there's an influx of Capricorn ladies recently, something is in the air.

LMAO.. I had 2 accounts when I played EQ2.. one had 12 toons. lmao all maxed level. With WoW I only had 4 at max, but I think it was 80 back then. I used gaming as an excuse to not live life/meet someone.... hence why I stopped playing.

I want so much more from life now 🙂




I love what you said;

I want so much more from life now.

It's a choice, really.

It really is 🙂

btw this hiding behind the computer was during my self imposed dating hiatus after that relationship I spoke bout in other thread. It really did impact me in a very negative way, how I viewed myself.

Know those feels. For a while I was in a world race progression guild, raiding 7 days/nights a week was really destructive, that's on top of playing other games like EQ as well, til I found the balance. Met some great friends through it though. Glad we both got out of the funk early!

Also my sickness just blew out of proportion! Headspins and I feel so weeeeeak. I NEVER get sick I HATE being sick, I have no idea being sick feels so terrible haha.

Why did it impact you negatively?^



The short, vague answer. I already had trust issues, add in that I don't let many close. He lied about stuff to get what he wanted, manipulate me and I was blinded to most of it. I was sooo in love. He stole all my money and left me in Vegas in 2001, no family, no friends, no car. in addition, I had major guilt over finding out about the GF bullshit, I started to despise myself..... I closed myself off to keep guys away because I didn't think I was worthy. I dated off and on but never letting stuff get too real or serious. I allowed it to impact me negatively is the real answer.

That all changed 4 years ago. I actually started to care about life again and want to be happy. I also realize to be in a healthy relationship is to be healthy with myself 1st. I want to do more than just exist.

I went through a similar situation like yours when I was younger. I also loved him very much and believed every lie he said. Only good thing about a situation like that is you learn a lot about people and yourself. You are on the right track now and that shit is never gonna happen again... Cuz you know now !

Always remember when people try to put you down... It's really about them and their issues. Thanks for sharing.

OK... this friend of mine on FB keeps posting pics of her mom. Her mom has advanced alzheimer, is bed ridden, has been for the last few years. Basically, a vegetable at this point. She's had to bring her to the hospital a few times and the hospital suggests to keep her there but friend refuses and brings her back home. To then post pics of this poor woman lying there, seemingly lifeless, commenting how she battled with the hospital to take her back home. People are all commenting how brave and wonderful she is. I don't know who I feel sorry for-- most.

What do you guys think about this behavior?

Posting pictures is just weird for me on facebook. I don't even post my own photos lol. He probably just feels alone or something thinking he's the only one dealing with it and wants to share his pain *shrugs*. Or maybe he's spreading awareness.

We're all battlers, I feel no sympathy for those who are vocal. Many have fallen, the unsung heroes.

I fell out with my sister over the same kind of behaviour. My mother first discovered early stages of lymphoma and my sister fell apart right in front of her in the living room. As if that wasn't enough for my sister, she then asked me why I wasn't more upset - as if we should all indulge in our own pity in front of my mother who (after all) was the main one really going through the ringer there.


I find it very self indulgent behaviour and a lack of self awareness.




Totally agree...

^^ very self indulgent. To me it seems as if the pic posting is a way to manipulate to garner sympathy for herself not her mom. Sometimes people don't know how to handle life illnesses and do stupid shit. Or their egos are so overinflated they make it about them.



I think so... I think she likes the acclaim, her other family members don't do that! Maybe she is rubbing it in their noses?! It's just sad to see the helpless woman who seems near death --who has no choice regarding if the pictures of her in this state-- should go on facebook.

Your creative processes are off the hook this week, aquarius!

You know how to think outside of the box and you've got all kinds of unique and kick ass projects and scams going on that are solid gold. You're stepping it up to a whole new level.

Keep pushing forward but be aware that more conventional types may not understand the angle you're working with and LOL what you're trying to express.
Your number for today is 88.



Merci ma belle 🙂
