So, I think I'm *may* get drunk alone here after the kid is in bed.
Edited on Sat Dec-08-07 06:33 PM by lildreamer316
The car is dead and my husband took the train to work last night. I'm alone without any transport until at least Monday night, when we have to figure out how to get him home from there (two hours south) since the trains & buses don't run anytime near when we need them to.

Have to use all the savings to buy another car, since that was the family one and the two-seater is in the shop also.
My only 'friend' decided not to call or answer her phone all day yesterday and half of today, and when I called today, acted like she didn't know what I was talking about.

I guess I must be a shitty person, since I don't have anyone I can talk to for days on end. Except you people, who are kind enough to respond.

This is getting ridiculous. The conclusion I must draw is that I am a total loser.I don't want to act like this, all 'poor me, waah" & etc.; it's not really my thing,but this is just....stupid. i'm really tired of it.

I used to be such a social person. I always tried to be a good friend, and I really like people, but I am independent and confident and not afraid of 'alone time'. I've just had too much of it lately. I'd like to get out of the house once in awhile, you know. Like, go out maybe...um...once a month? To...like..a bar? ANY bar? With ADULTS???!!!

Okay, whine over. Just please be patient with me IF I drunkenly post later on this evening. Thanks.

1. Oh, sweetie. I'm sorry you're having such a tough time.
And, I'm far from one to preach about having a drink or two, but if it's just you and that precious little boy, be careful, 'k?

2. Oh, always...
I'm a control freak, so I will never be so drunk I can't respond or any such. Never fall-down drunk, so on so forth. I will make sure he is well into sleep before I even have one, if I actually *do* have one. I may just be talking out of my ass. I think I just wanted to whine a bit..
Thanks for the concern.

3. You're not a shitty person, and you're not a loser.
:hug: If I lived closer, I'd love to hang out with you - you seem like a really nice and fun person to be around. :) I'm really sorry you're having to deal with all this crap right now...sometimes it just seems like the circumstances gang up on you to make parts of your life really suck, you know? :pals: Don't feel bad about venting (isn't that at least partially what the Lounge is for? :P), and if you want or need to talk, my PM box is always open. :hug: Peace, and I hope things get better for you soon! :hi:

5. Thanks.
I really don't mean to come off as such a whiner,but I am just immensely frustrated. Thanks so much for the kind thoughts.
I am going to use my gratitude journal and remember all the wonderful things about my life....that will help, I know. I am aware how much better I have it than so many other people.
:pals:

Sorry to hear you're feeling down and stranded... feel free to post liberally tonight, sober or buzzed.

And maybe check your MS friend requests. ;)

7. no problem...
I'm sure you get plenty of random creeps, so once in a while a creep you kinda sorta know from a forum thinger must get bounced, too. ;)

9. I must be drunk already, to say "I'm may"...!! Duh.
Precursor of things to come, I suppose.
