What pissed you off today?

[JMohegan]

Of course they might just have their own emotions. I know people with full blown PTSD and fucked up lungs who still think it should go where proposed, that building up and going on is good, and life goes on.

Yup.

And I know close friends and colleagues of 9/11 victims who loathe the way their alleged "sensitivities" are exploited for political purpose. As if all loved ones of the dead are Islamophobes.

If your argument to me is that 7000 inches from ground zero is far enough away so that it shouldn't matter, then why not two miles away? We'll give them a good trade of property in the bargain and even stimulus money to help build it.

Why not? It was spend on tunnels for turtles and skateboard parks. A mosque would be an upgrade.

Olbermann's take on it. Good stuff, especially the ending.

That's not my argument. My argument is that it shouldn't matter. No offense, I don't even need foamy Keith's backup. This is kindergarten level civics shit, no matter WHAT happens.

For fuck's sake, can you me find a job lead that's close than a goddamned hour away?

 

[neci]

random people who insist on talking to you while you are filling out paper work at doctor's offices. it's really none of your business why i'm sitting here, and no i don't want to hear your entire health history.

It's probably stress minxie. Try not to worry
It's happened to me in the past. If you're worried (like I was the first time it happened) get a pregnancy test. Our bodies do funny things sometimes, esp in our 40s

bank account over drawn. . . again.

What really pisses me off about this is that I have the money sitting n another account, but if I don't catch my mistake and transfer the funds, I get hit with fees!

I thought I had glandular fever.

I was told today there is a small but significant chance my symptoms have been caused by HIV instead.

In other news, hi. Me again.

My husband was told that his thrush infection (throat) is usually only caused by an onset of HIV. We were panicky for weeks afterwards, until all the tests came back.

I'm sure you're fine, honey.

I hate working on files involving fatalities.

Mostly I hate it because a bit more than half the time, I don't feel a thing in regards to it. And that number seems to be increasing. Seeing a shredded van with blood spattered all over the interior doesn't even phase me. All I think is to make sure I don't touch it.

I was standing there talking to the cop from the Fatal Crash unit and we were in the same space emotionally. At some level it bugs me to think that I'm the same place as a guy whose job it is to deal with these cases every damned day.

All logic says there's no way it can be. I haven't done anything that could result in me getting it, or with anybody who has anything. Doesn't help I don't have anybody around to talk to about it - most of my friends have their phones off or are out of contact, the girl...if I tell her she'll obsess, and I don't want her doing that all over what's suposed to be a weekend holiday thing. Parents are away, brother's useless. For the first time in fuck only knows how long, I'm actually scared.

When do the test results come back?

And, honestly, if you've been safe, you've been safe.

There's nothing anyone can say that'll take away that fear until you do get the test results back but a friend had a similar scare a few years ago. He had a stubborn case of mono and they told him the same thing. He was sure there was no reason to worry but he was on edge anyway until he got his clear results back. I think that's a default concern any time mono lingers longer than the doctor thinks it should.

Like satindesire said, you're probably fine. Is there anything you can distract yourself with until the results come back so you don't stress too much over what is likely a non-issue?

 

[MisterSir]

Next week some time was the scientific answer. I've gotta call up and find out. Scared as I am right now, I really don't know if I even want to make that call. You can imagine how fucking scary it'd be to call and find out it's not all fine.

My brain takes the next step, because after that call, you get to call your partners and tell them.

Bottom line though, it's not a death sentence like it used to be. You can live through it.

yeah I know Bandit.

I actually told my doctor I thought it was probably the stress. That could account for the other symptoms too....sickness and stuff.

Am definitely going to do the test though because I havent pissed a period ever I think (maybe once when i was much younger), but I have a horrible week coming up and the doctor actually said lets deal with one thing at a time. So will test when all thats out of the way.

Its ironic I wanted to be pregnant for so long lol, but not now.

I'm going with the stress thing.

I stand corrected on the religion of McVeigh. However, my error in no way legitimizes the notion that people of a given faith should be refused their rights as American citizens because of the political acts of others who share the same faith.

And you can take your ad hominem and stick it where it will never tan.

Weeeeelll, Timmy's views don't quuuuiiiiiite escape all culpability:

"Time: Are you religious?

McVeigh: I was raised Catholic. I was confirmed Catholic (received the sacrament of confirmation). Through my military years, I sort of lost touch with the religion. I never really picked it up, however I do maintain core beliefs.

Time: Do you believe in God?

McVeigh: I do believe in a God, yes. But that's as far as I want to discuss. If I get too detailed on some things that are personal like that, it gives people an easier way [to] alienate themselves from me and that's all they are looking for now."

I say, if someone maintains "core beliefs" of a religion, that taints all adherents to that religion. Period. No institution which professes the basic tenets of Christianity should thus be allowed within 200 yards of the Murrah Building. Ever. That is sacred ground, and the fucking Constitution be damned.

You're assuming that the "core ten n ants" he, or anyone else, retains, are legitmate and faithful to the religion.

***why does Lit turn "ten - n - ants" into "******ts"?

I don't know why it does that, but a "tenant" is someone who lives somewhere; a "tenet" is "an opinion, doctrine, or principle held as being true by a person or especially by an organization." There is no such word as "ten n ant" in the English language (without the extraneous spaces, of course ).
