Whats the biggest thing going on in your life right now?

I'm curious..perhaps it will take my mind off whats going on in mine right now..well..the bad stuff anyways.

I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement.

I get out of bed in the morning.

When you consider the alternative to that, everything else seems rather petty.

Ron? That is a healthy attitude.

One that should not be taken for granted. Depression is an insiduous illness, however. The very definition of it being, that there is NO logical reason to be unhappy.

It's just there.

And? I am curious. You always seem to have it all together. All of your emotional duckies in a row, so to speak. I have three questions...

1.Is that so?

2.If that's so, how do you do it, and if it's not, how do you give the appearance of that? and why?(okay...I slipped in a couple of question marks...)

3.How does it feel to be normal?

sigh...

thanks for the smile.

I agree
makes me feel a little better
In case anyone wonders, I AM thankful for all the good stuff..just wish I could change the bad stuff faster.

Nothing in my life is biggest...they are all the same size. Boringly medium...

I think 'biggest' is a state of mind. The proportion of each is determined by the importance of the moment. If my house is on fire, that's the biggest thing in my life. If my computer dies and I can't get online, that's the biggest thing in my life. If the phone rings and it's the man of my dreams calling, then that is.....

The 'biggest' thing in my life right now is actually a little redhead.  Oh and that 12 million I won in the lottery.

The biggest thing right now? I'm strangely in a good mood. Considering that my romance is dead and gone, and I'm exhausted, that's doing pretty well for me.

Well, I've had a headache for the last three days, but it gets better.  The girl I'm still in love with is dating another guy, but since he's in a different state, she wants to spend her freetime with me, and, since I'm an idiot, I let her, making myself even more miserable than I should be.  So I've turned to countless hours buried in my books, my work, and excercise...doing pretty much everything but healthily sleeping.  My heart is off-key, my head is pounding, my body is exhausted...and I was just thinking about going for a walk instead of going to bed.  Go figure.  

On a lighter note:  my tan is better than its been in the last six years, I've put three inches on my vertical, 60 pounds on my bench, and I'm running the mile almost a minute faster.  So it's not all bad. *grins*

Well, I got my results from last semester at university. I passed all my classes, and even managed a distinction in my favourite class, which I'm pretty proud of. My five month old nephew has cleft palate, and I wrote a report on the level of services and support available in our area, and that was the clincher, I believe. So I'm pretty stoked about that.

The biggest thing going on in my life right now is how long I will have my life.
My main tumor is gone, but some cells have either lagged behind and are still there...or, they have grown back...Its impossible to tell which...

I keep getting roller coaster types of news about my health...one day everything looks okay and the next, it looks like I might now be here next year at this time...

So...I guess that the biggest thing in my life right now is fear of not having one anymore.......and I don't mean 40 or 50 yrs from now...I think we are down to the nitty gritty and may be talking months not years...but somehow, I just don't feel that sick and I am certainly not ready to go.  I feel like its not my time yet...
Its my time to stay here and post poetry...

All in all, I would say that this is a pretty significant thing which is going on right now...

Um... My life's pretty depressing right now. *weak smile*

My poor baby Fidgey (my ferret) is sick. She's five years old, which is really old in ferret years. They live between four and six, usually. She's got cysts on her endocrine gland... But she doesn't know she's sick, so that's good. Still runs around, quacking (yes, ferrets quack) up a storm, attacking feet, and being adorable in general. But she's going bald, and she probably has less than a year left.

*sigh*

Work sucks, social life non-existant. Waiting for a year-old question to be answered by the medical system. Thinking too much about the past.

But I've got my favorite album of all time on vinyl, given to me by Mikhail fr my birthday, and I've got an 8 inch statuette of Ash from Army of Darkness (yeppers, chainsaw and all; front cover pose, sans girl), loosely holding the chain attached to my blue devil ducky straight from Retail Slut (again, through Mike), and I'm wearing plaid. All these are good things.

Oh yeh, duh, and I'm totally in love.   But he knows that, and I know that, and I'm sure everyone on PiP knows that, so who needs to push it?

I moved to a new town a few weeks ago. Got a great job but not enough hours Met some really nice people here. And I spend waaaay too much time in the internet cafe!
I've been doing a lot more sketching lately, which I am enjoying. And I have lots more time to write now that I am on my own.

Actually, it's not that I don't have a life, it's that you don't want to know. I mean, really really don't want to know.

I got the Princess of Ireland Barbie, and somehow there are fetish images attached to her already... Lori is a very, very twisted li'l gal... Who speaks of herself in the third person.

But is it my fault that they wrapped her wrists in wires??
