Ahh, lots of baddayness going around it seems.
(Huggles Shoki first)- I hope everything works out, though it doesn't sound good the way they are fighting so much. While my parents have a tendancy to nag fight (well my mom nag fights with me and my dad) I do still have some idea what it is like to be in a family where the parents are always fighting. My best friend when I was younger had two parents who always ended in some sort of screaming match or something. When I would spend a week or two at her house, I would be frazzled by the time I got home and that was only having to deal with it as a guest. I hope everything ends up okay, and if nothing more the fighting end whether it be by divorce or working things out.
(Goes to hug Doomie next)- Aww, it sounds like you just had a really, really, really bad day. Sometimes it just seems like life wants to take a giant crap on your head and screw everything up. I wish I could offer you some advice, perhaps you can curl up with your kitty for some TLC petting. Animals have always been the one thing that seems to brighten my day anyways. XP

Um... So, after failing my learner's driving test 3 times (it's on the computer, touch screen), I felt really stupid because everyone else passed it on their first try gonk .. But I managed to work up the courage to take it again today and ended up passing it. Whoo, go me! whee Grats.

Thanks Kriss, I just dunno what to do. This is new to me, I've never had two parent figures before, and now all they do is fight. So, I went to WalMart to escape the fighting (I needed some stuff anyway) and bought myself a new game for my poor, neglected SP. I feel a little better.

Trying to write a poem about a personal experience for my Humanities class. It's not going well. I had written a poem about this imaginary dream I had about a a girl in a garden who told me about how she was a lesbian and how her mother, one of those highly religious types, was mad as hell at her. I even wrote this ending bit to it....about how the mother kills her only daughter for being a lesbian and then, realizing how horrible a monster she is, kills herself. I dunno....*groans*
Poem moved by request. ^^ Now it's in the Artist Junkyard.

After reading the description to that poem, I want to hear it now. XD
Edit- oh it appears to be on there now. Fog I would suggest posting it in the art forum and ask for advice. I might have some suggestions, but I don't want to crowd up the Sallies Thread with that sort of stuff.

So my mate and I were chillin' out in our room, taking pictures of some Warhammer figures he wants to sell on eBay (through my account)...And his mom comes home. Kinda drunk...but not terribly so. And she comes into our room and was like "Manda, I want you to have that car....it's your car now! Keep it! You need a car!!" And then she goes away....and I'm like..... eek
I asked my mate about it later, and he was like "she may have been tipsy, but I think she was serious...."
Someone just gave me a car. I still have to make payments on it all (to which she responds, "don't worry...I'll pay this month, and then you can take over from there after you get a job....and even if you can't pay then, that's okay too...I'll take care of it..."), and I can't even really drive it yet (no license)....but...still. Someone just gave me a car.
I don't know what year it is, but it's a Plymouth Neon, salsa red, automatic...real cute lil bugger. It's gonna be my baby..... 4laugh
(hopes all goes well and she wasn't just tipsy....)

There is a bird (possibly some sort of bug) somewhere. Either it's built a nest outside or it's in our attic. IT WILL NOT SHUT UP. It's not loud, but it's repetitive, and I want to find it and smash it's head with a brick to shut it up. =_=

So my dog isn't eating or drinking. Mom thinks he has parvo, I pray to god that he doesn't. I'm hoping that he's just depressed. I don't have the money to take him to the vets, and I really don't want to lose him. If he dies from parvo I don't think I'll get another pet...

You need to find the closest animal shelter/human society group. Many of them will help out people who are in financial trouble when it comes to needing service for an animal. Not eating or drinking could mean any number of problems, and it is cruel not to take your animal in. Really though, you shouldn't have an animal if you can't afford basic vet care. neutral

Having a pet is like having a child: if you don't have what it takes to take care of one, don't have them.

This is sort of depressing for me. I talked to my advisor today so I could get some good advice on classes and stuff, and get a good idea of when I'm done. Well, due to the fact that I've never had a good advisor until my current one, I've never had good advice on what I should be doing. On the surface, it looks like I only need 13 more credits to graduate, and that's an easy semester. But in reality, I might need much more.
See, I don't technically have a minor, and until now I was always told I would be fine without one as long as I'd finish my major and the other requirements for graduation. Well, wrong. And at this point, chances are I'm likely do in for a full 32 more credits to fulfill a minor, which means about 2 more semesters for me.
There is a chance that, with the help of my advisor, I could appeal to the dean for a retroactive, topical minor in Japanese and Asian studies, because I've taken 16 credits of Japanese, and 8 more credits in other things related to East Asia, and that adds up to a total of 24 credits, which fulfills a minor. So there is some hope there, and I would just be left with the 13 credits I need.
Unfortunately, chances are the dean will say no to that, and there's nothing more I can do about it other than working with what credits I do have in other departments, which happens to be philosophy, and only about 12 credits at that, so I'd need a lot more work to be done.
I'm really REALLY hoping the dean will say yes, because I've worked really hard, and it had always been my intent to have some sort of focus in Japanese, and since there's never been any real minor in it at my university, you have to approve a topical one, and I wasn't aware there was a timeframe I was supposed to declare that, and that closed a long time ago.
I am really sick of school at this point, and the idea that I may have to stay another semester longer than I'd hoped, really just gets me down. My dad isn't going to be happy either

I honestly don't know what to think about serving in the military anymore...
First off, they decided to move me again, this time to the ADPE warehouse. Essentially, we take old computers and store them until they get sold or destroyed or whatever. I've done warehouse work before, so it's not too bad I guess.
Next is my new supervisor. Cool guy, but he (along with the rest of the guys down there) has a fondness for gay jokes, which I don't like. I mean, we just had a guy leave that was helping us out in the warehouse that had a slight lisp. I swear, the moment he was out the door, the jokes started. Every night, I go home worn out and seething because of it. I can't say anything, thanks again to the damned don't ask, don't tell policy...I hate that with a passion...
I've decided that I still do in fact support the military, but serving isn't for me. Now...the process begins to think of a way to get out and keep my Montgomery GI Bill benefits...I put too much money into that to not get it.
On a lighter note, I finally managed to get my hands on Proven Guilty, the 8th book in the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher ^_^ That basically made this whole day worthwhile cool

My sister collapsed last night. She's currently in hospital under observation. She's due to get out this morning.
