I figured somebody might possibly like a thread where they will be able to post the random things on their mind, whether it's an idea, a simple thought, complex thoughts, problems... Anything they wish to share without criticism or judgement. Let's face it, writing down our thoughts, feelings, wisdom, etc., isn't the best thing to do because, although often personal, it disallows the communication with other humans we so desire (plus this saves the trees that we should be using to cut down on carbon dioxide, yet we instead cut them down).

I'll go first...

Why the hell is coming up with a random thought so difficult when you feel as though you're in the spotlight, yet you do it all the time when you don't feel pressured?

Also, hard nipples.

Sometimes I wish you would float away and reintroduce your soul in some other way because I really want to love you but can't allow you as you are now to hurt me again.

Who else feels like love could turn into hate after a breakup? Or is just me and my resentment? :(
It's not just you.

Ugh.Bloody cold, nose is stuffend my right eye is all swollen as well.
Ugh. Sorry mate. I think something's trying to get started with me, too. Hoping I'm wrong... Feel better!

Easy enough night for the bust ass night. Passed rather quickly. I was concerned for a good while about having the delight of getting to work an extra 8 hrs this morning, but... that did not come to pass... but only because there was no school today. (Thanks Mother Nature...) Had it not been so fantastically cold outside, I'd still be at work... for many more hours. Icky.

Thought I put my tablet battery into perma sleep by letting it drain all the way down to dead, dead zed. (Apparently, this can happen. Who knew?) It wouldnt' even power up whilst it was plugged into the charger. Was about to start kicking myself, but decided to try bump charging (I think it's called...) to get a bit of charge back in it...

Fortunately, it never amounted to that. It didn't get into the perma sleep... just... really fucking dead. It was on the charger for about 15 minutes and then I could start it. Will have to remember to put it on the charger at least every other night, I guess. Even if I'm not going to use it. I was going to be quite sad if I had killed my battery...

It's cold as a penguin's ass outside about now. Air temps are higher than they were previously... like about 5F... but the wind is howling outta the north and who knows how many mph and the windchills are in the -20 to -30 range. Fuck. Me. (This is why there's no school... don't want the kiddies waiting for school buses to be frozen solid before they arrive...)

I really dislike winter, for the record. Snow and cold are really not my thing. Which is why I could never live in the mountains. I love the mountains... everything about them. When it's summer time. When it's winter time? Not so much.

Ok... off to do some gaming, me thinks. Been a few days.

Cheerio!

I notice everything, but I won't say a word. Sometimes venting is good for your mental health though

I just understood why I'm getting angry when my flatmate says "oh, you're not sad today, you seem so positive!"

I couldn't understand that. Where does it come from? Normally I'd react with a smile and shared this joy.

It's about the way, that he says that. That tone.
This is a praise. Like a praise for a dog.
Yeah, this is it...

Oh, you're so positive, you're not interrupting me with your sad presence today and I don't have to worry about how to behave!
Nice trick! You've made it!
Goooood boy!


Step away before you'll try to pat me...
Just because I seem soft doesn't mean that I'm a puppy.

Up earlier than I want or should be. Woke up hot (my room is like a fucking oven) and then couldn't go back to sleep. If I was under the blankets, I was roasting... if I wasn't under them I was cold. :dry: No happy medium, really. And then I just got restless. Once I get there, there's not much point in continuing to try sleeping cuz it ain't gonna happen. So... up bouncing around the 'net and what not after having a snack. I'll sleep later on, if I can.

Was reading the online site of one of the local tv news stations. One of the boys I worked with eons ago when I worked at a group home for at risk youth (the job previous to this one) was arrested with several other men, for many burglaries in the area. (We're talking thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars worth of stuff...)

He's 32 now... and in jail, obviously. Good to see he's doing so well. :rolleyes: He was actually one of the kids I liked a lot, too. I mean... I'm not disappointed. In this field, you learn very quickly that most of the at risk youth you deal with are going to continue right along their path to jail & prison... no matter what you do and no matter how much you like them. There isn't a lot of "saving" these kids, is what I'm saying. There's a lot of delaying... but that's about it.

But... I do wish I'd see these kids every now and then, doing something positive with their lives. I don't. Pretty much ever. Whenever I see a story on the news about one of the group home boys or one of the kids I've worked with at my current job... it's never anything good. They've robbed, raped or killed someone. Or... they've died. (often violently)

Well... think I'm going to go spend some time gaming. Was going to do that this morning and ended up going to bed instead. (after wasting a goodly amount of time bouncing around the 'net, of course...)

My optimistm has form of million of minions together.
That's a lot of minions. The optimism of your million minions should go find me a dragon. Cuz I needs one. Yes I do.

~~~

Oh. The dragon thing reminds me that I dreamt this strange dream where I found these 3D printed animals... snakes, tarantula, a bearded dragon, frogs... probably some other wee beings I don't remember... they were 3D printed animals, as I said... quite colorful (the bearded dragon was awesome!), but they were also alive... well... they moved about like they were alive, anyway.

They were soooooo cool. I caught a whole bunch of them. (No idea why they were just out wandering about) I literally had a small aquarium filled with all these colorful critters. They acted like the real deal (minus the bitey bits), but were often unrealistically colored (the bearded dragon was multi colored & very vibrant), not really alive, didn't eat or anything like that.

No idea why I dreamt oddness like that, but I surely did.

Just got a not in the mail from former supervisor Jake's stepdaughter. Before the Christmas/New Year holiday, Jake and his wife were trying to find ways to get her daughter here from where she lives with her father. (Half a country away.) They did one of those funding web site things and managed to round up the money it would take to get her with her mom & Jake back here for the holidays. Which is pretty cool. (She's an 11 yr old and Jake & his wife just don't have the money...)

As a firm believer that family is everything and therefore of the utmost importance, I tossed some money into the pot to get the little girl here for the holidays. She's been back home for a while now, but I just got a thank you card from the little one. Very sweet, with very sweet little girl sentiments.

And Olaf! :laughing:


I know that's from Frozen... but no idea otherwise, as I've not seen the movie. (Though a copy has been lying about my unit all week. Just couldn't bring myself to watch it. Maybe some day when I'm really, really really bored...)

One more night after tonight! Hopefully, we've got a full on schedule for tomorrow morning. I hate the threat of mandatory overtime hanging over my head all the time. It fucking sucks.

I'm ready for the weekend, even though I've got no plans. Perhaps I will make some. Probably should go hang out with that RN character at some point in time before she thinks I've died. (I kid. We text. She knows I've been feeling exceptionally anti social of late and she's ok with the space... but eventually, I need to get back or I fear I'll never return...)

Anyway.. back to my game for a while. Then hopefully a nap.

Vive la France!

ISTP decided to go all cold on me. Oh well, there is no shortage of admirers :)
And i am not that sort of person who would chase after anyone. Never have done it in my life.

Does anyone else feel like they don't belong anywhere? I'm currently in my early 20s and I just simply feel lost. I feel like I need to be out on my own. I feel like I'm losing control of my life. Any advice or other INFJ thoughts would br much appreciated.
All I can say is ALL THE DAMN TIME.
I don't have any advice, it just seems to hurt like an open wound always.

Forget what everyone else says you should be doing and go do what you've always wanted to (in a career or hobby sense). You'll likely meet people with similar interests in the process, and that can help a lot with the feeling of belonging.

1:00 am here
Im hearing all kind of weird noises from the kitchen.

Finding music you haven't heard in years - and wanting to crawl inside it and live there for a while. :tongue: I go through phases of not listening to anything for a little while, and then being obsessed with music.

The sims 4 has stopped working on my laptop, not impressed :bored: might have to join you in playing a previous version @warweasel ! The bloody thing won't stop lagging no matter what I do. Nevermind, back to the real world for this INFJ.
