FOr the first time in 10 years, I got really involved in politics for a single candidate (I've been running national campaigns and poo poo for years). I've spend 6 months knocking doors, calling, lit drops, fundraising you know it for a city councillor candidate. Despite getting endorsements from the Mayor (Who got 70%) of the vote, and the outgoing candidate(who was well loved), he only got 20% of the vote and lost. It's a gut-punch.

I didn't sleep tonight, at all, and I'm so goddamn sick that I can't even attempt to struggle through the day like a normal person. I'm completely loving useless.

loving hell. So, backstory. There was this girl I worked with occasionally (she worked in a business I do consulting in), and we were friends. Not especially close, but friends. Two years ago, she found out she had cancer, and unfortunately died of it one year ago. It was super sad, especially for her family because her dad had also died of cancer when she was very young. This morning I went to a memorial mass her family has organised, and I talked with her family (mum and sister). As it turns out, her sister has come down with the exact same type of cancer my friend had. Genetics is sure a thing, huh?  I feel really bad especially for their mum. Yes she has other family, brothers, in-laws, cousins, etc, but everyone close to her either died of cancer or has cancer right now

gently caress me This past week I got the flu, unexpectedly lost my dog to liver failure, found out my older sister is going blind, and now today I find out that my younger sister who has just moved interstate almost successfully committed suicide a few months ago. I am going to take a Valium and lie down for the rest of the day.

Just found out my ex-girlfriend went missing on Friday. She was last seen at a party acting "scared and paranoid" according to a friend of hers. I am scared out of my loving mind. Being scared and/or paranoid is completely outside of her character because she's always been too busy being a cantankerous shithead with no filter between her brain and her mouth. gently caress.

The job I really wanted to get emailed me today saying they wanted to hire me, and set up an appointment for a drug test. Guy I know just got hired on and had to take a urine test, they have me scheduled to take a hair follicle test and I smoked a little bit of weed this summer..  We're being hired on for the same thing, I don't understand why my pre-employment drug test should be any different from his. I'm going to take it Monday, I'm worried that they might not even be able to do the test because I shave my head, and I shave pretty much all of my body hair which grows in very fine and short anyway.

I think I tore a muscle in my leg, or something. I've hardly been able to walk all day, it hurts terribly (bad enough I was crying earlier), and my insurance has lapsed, and I've been trying to get it to kick back in for the last couple of weeks. Even so, I went to the doctor today, and he gave me paperwork to go get an xray in the morning. I could afford the $200 for the visit (I got another bursitis shot today), but I don't think I can afford an xray. For the cherry on top, I was applying Icy Hot to my leg, and got some on my balls. It's quite unpleasant.

If you ever put icy hot on any part of your body even remotely near your balls, just wear underwear(briefs) and if it gets on those, so be it. better that than risking it getting on your tenders, it's like dunking your nuts in a deep fryer.

It's muscle spasms! I hate this. I can walk, but only for a little bit, and I have to stand just right or it hurts like hell. I can't actually sit down for very long, which really sucks. How am I supposed to poop!?

I bit the bullet and went to the ER today. I've got a muscle relaxer, some ibuprofen, and plenty of pain. They said it was a muscle spasm, affecting my back and leg. I'm pretty much on bed rest for a while, but they said it should clear up within a few days to a week. However, like the universe is giving me the finger, I've got a headache and feel like I need to throw up.

My relief is late. The person hired to replace the one who quit is not on the schedule. They were hired specifically because they claimed to be able to be on time to relieve me.

You have now glimpsed the big nothing that lurks behind every corner, every granted wish, every achieved goal. Maybe you should read a book it about and see if someone else encountered it before?

I've started going to my local gym to try to get in better shape, and while it's fun and satisfying to push myself a little, it results in some nasty farts in the aftermath. Generally feels great to do it though.

If I did a bunch of poo poo when I was young I would not worry about it when I was 40, if I have done it, that is good. I am afraid of not doing poo poo and then still not doing so because I would be 30-40.

It sounds like you wanna do poo poo. Do you know what that poo poo is? Try to figure it out and then do it, or alternatively embark on a lifelong path to be able to do the poo poo which may always be out of reach, but at least you'll know what to do when you have free time.

A company that I had a really promising interview with on Tuesday told me that they'd get back to me on Monday (today). It's 3:52pm, and I have heard nothing from them. Also, a company that I wasn't even expecting to hear back from emailed me back today to tell me that one part of my application didn't load correctly and I need to resend it.
