My confession: so after a tough breakup/divorce with someone that I thought I'd be with forever (boy is forever a long time, lol!) I think I may have actually found someone that "gets" me and that I may be finally happy with

I don't have any friends. I have some acquaintances I may hang out with very, very infrequently, but if it weren't for my boyfriend and his social circle I honestly don't think I'd have any human contact in person outside of work/buying things/etc. 

 

My bf has a handful of really good friends he's known half his life in addition to quite a few acquaintances and coworkers he hangs out with often. While I am happy he has these people in his life and I encourage him to see them I can't help but feel jealous though. I haven't had a good friend since I was about 15, and even then my couple of middle/high school friends I didn't feel very close to. 

 

Sometimes I wonder if I'm just not cut out for social interaction. I have a hard time relating to others, and am always left feeling like the awkward odd person out. I thought I'd meet people in college but instead my world got even smaller. And since I've joined the workforce I feel like I don't have much of a world at all.

that's how i am too. i dont do well in meeting new people because the new people i meet have their own little cliques so i just shut down and fade in to the back ground. i often overcompensate by using humour as a defense mechanism for my poor social skills, mostly due to circumstances of how i was raised, my experiences in school, drugs, everything. i see myself as a complex person, and you hear it often with "no one understands me" but with what i've gone through, it's so much more than "oh i'm being treated unfairly, i hate the world, and no one gets me", when mental illness is a pretty serious issue in my family, but mostly in my mom and sister, who both have bi-polar and PTSD issues and multiple anxiety disorders, and i'm similar to them in many ways (minus the bi-polar because i wasnt diagnosed with that) but i'm also very paranoid and i just feel like an outcast everywhere i go

 

even tho AJ's core friend group accepted me, i don't relate to any of them, at all, and some of their "problems" just seem so trivial to me, and when i offer some kind of advice, i always get "oh, i know that already" well, i guess my work here is done

I confess, watching the Seahawks play is very enticing.  That arena may be loud, like really loud, but those guys move fast! Perhaps it's that glass of wine I had, but this is enticing! 

 

But I should go find my seat. The Canucks game game starts at 2pm, and step away from the football.

I recently discovered Adam Ellis on Twitter, and I'm now obsessed.

Just go on tumblr and search "Canucks gifs". Plenty of great ones to choose from!

Was cleaning around and came across my dreaded high school yearbook.  Dear god I was non-existent,  in 5 years I never had a pic in the yearbook aside from a class photo.  My grad year only 2 of my friends gave me a 'shout out' and both were just about my pants.  High School was such a popularity contest and I didn't even try to socialise.

They were Southpole jeans and were ridiculously big, MC Hammer would be jealous.

I confess - 

 

I have a sense of urgency for everything, and it drives me crazy when others are more relaxed and wait on things, especially when I am waiting for something. This applies to my personal and professional life.  I know that maybe I should be a little more relaxed, and I noticed this more after my father passed away.  After that happened, it was handling the post things, and that was non-stop, it was do do do.  I think that may have had an affect on me, in developing a sense of urgency.

I remember the day I dumpstered my yearbooks

 

my only regret is that I didn't burn them

 

The past is past, no longer have to ditch first or last class

 

Because I'm grown and have shown to be a weird one

 

Confession!

I don't think we would get along well then

I'm frequenting the bars a lot - and I'm talking to way more people than I ever thought I'd do. I'm pretty proud that they were generally meaningful convos. My co-workers think I'm a player, which kinda makes me laugh. While it's not something I'd identify myself as, I feel like I have an image to uphold, even though I'm not fake.

Oh yeah, you should see me at work.  My co-worker said I was something, but I totally forgot what that word was.  And I enjoy doing many things at once, and get really excited about it.

I confess - 

 

I just got the blood test results back for my cat.  She's 12, and the vet said the results were really good, except for her kidney function is in the high normal, and she wants an urine test done to see if her kidney's are declining.  Sally also needs some dental work done.  Of course I emailed back asking questions.  I'm full of questions when it comes to Sally.  It's too bad I don't have the vet's personal number.  We could have a conversation about this, but the vet is probably thinking that is good that me and other clients don't have her number.
