Just did a round trip of 6hrs on the Hume highway for work. GOTD is that both on the way up and back from Rutherglen I saw lost/dumped dogs on the side of the highway.

One with a collar was looking very upset, walking in circles on a divider near a highway entrance, and the other one was running up the side of the overpass near Greensborough in the dark where it is many lanes wide and very busy!

Poor puppies :( Some people just don't deserve their dogs!

FARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why o why does communication have to be so hard? Why when you go to so much effort to explain something and the reasons behind it that people still ignore what you say because they have preset ideas of how to do something?

Fuck it.

Its fucked isn't it, all my mates, ALL of them can go out until 4 in the morning and sleep until 12. I go out until 4 in the morning and sleep until 8 if i'm lucky.

I am finally teaching myself how to sleep better, i'm not sleeping in but i am getting at least 7 hours a night of decent sleep. I used to get about 6 hours on average a night and it fucked me.

GOTD:

I try not to be too serious on mb.c, but my gotd is one that I know could have been avoided (somehow... I will alway wonder "what if...").

I'm about to go to the funeral of a friend who was smart, talented, funny and loved. He had so much potential. He took his life last Saturday.

Anyone out there who has had thoughts of self-harm: you may think that you are a burden to yourself/to others. You may think that you are in a black hole that there is no escape from, but please don't give up. You are needed and loved more than you will ever know.

RIP Neil.

That is all.

Getting inviting to my Grandma's 80th on the Sat night before the actual party. Awesome.

Spending 2 hours there and not one single syllable being uttered to me from my mum.

Double Awesome that is.... or perhaps its priceless :?

answered some questions for a career guidance book thingy about a year (or even more ago) where they ask a whole bunch of different professions what its like to do their job.

Stumbled across the book today and its called Carrer FAQ's but is written

career faqs

which if you read it quickly enough (such as the website name) looks suspiciously like "career fags". And there amongst the listed "career fags" is my name in plain english for all to see
