@Human Desert: Sad to hear that. I came closer to my smaller brother (in fact he's a little bigger...) than ever before within the last months, I can imagine how you feel right now.
@Kov: I think I can imagine that as well. I love my dog a lot and it feels bad not to see her for a long time now. But I ask my mother in E-Mails if she's right. She's only 4 years now, so she should have some more.
Sweden still goes fine. We went to the beach (the italian called Giovanni can't pronounce it correctly, always sounds like bitch...) yesterday and I got a little sunburn on my back. But finally I'll be a little brown for the first time this year! Had a great day there and some of us (including myself) are going to watch a 2nd league football match this evening. Might get fun.
Somehow I'm not missing my friends and family so far. But I'm here only one week, so I already have been separated for that long before... But normally we talk at least on the phone and this would get too expensive here.

Thanks everyone. Jessica had to be put to sleep Friday evening, as she would otherwise suffer uneccesarily for at most, a week. My gf took it rather hard, as she's had her since she was 7 years old. After 14 years, Jessie really became more like a best friend to her. Anyway, thanks for the support.
@Hyena- DC? Lemme know how you like it.

@ hyena, good news that You are going to see Eminem, as it pretty much a certainty that when he steps off the stage for his last show next month in Ireland that Marshall Mathers is ready to get rid of Eminem.
Great show, they use videos though out his performance that really bring home the idea that this is the end of Eminem.
I don't know how much interest You have in his posse? But when I saw this tour there was no 50 Cent. Rumor had him finishing up a movie? Anyway 50 from what I understand is now with this tour, along with G Unit and others.
I'm not saying that I know you well or anything.. but the overall image I have of you, and your Eminem fanatism is something that I understand. And I'm 100% in agreement with You.

Oh dear. Today it seems people aren't too great. I'm sorry to hear that. But to thoise going to see eminem, erm, have fun. At least you have each others company .
NF: Fruhstrated. I want to do something tonight, but half of my usual crew are off doing something else (a party which I just dont want to be a part of)... the other half either want all or nothing, but I don't want to go out and get wasted/go on a spending spree when there's joy to be had another day with everyone. To you this must be so trivial. But yeah, I hate this stuck insideness. plus all eyes are kinda on me for a decision right now. I believe the answer is a get together at someones abode.

Let's put it this way: the fact that Eminem is well liked by many people doesn't change the fact that he is a very brilliant lyricist, expressing sentiments that are, all in all, very similar to those cropping up in punk rock lyrics. Nobody takes issue with me liking punk, why shouldn't I like Eminem?
I mean - just look at the anger unleashed in songs like "Kim". The part where he shouts "This couch, this TV, this whole house is mine!" at his cheating wife, with the sound of things being thrown on the ground and broken.. Or the very dark tones in "Stan" and "Cleaning out my closet"... not to mention how he deals with the situation of people with little money but lots of hope fueled by music in other songs. I also like the melancholy side that's coming out in the new songs, especially "Mockingbird" and "Like toy soldiers". I just love articulate lyrics, and if they are also kind of emotional all the better.
As for the music per se, I'm not very narrow in my tastes. Rap is not my favorite genre, but I love some artists. I don't listen to punk, oi or metal only. I also listen to folky italian songwriters, I have a passion for several pieces of classical music, I enjoy some electronica, and I even like some pop and dance. Are the Pet Shop Boys more or less out of character than Eminem?

Same. I keep having nightmares every night. In fact, just yesterday i was crying to my boyfriend that i never want to sleep again because i can't get rid of those dreams. At least i don't have to sleep alone like you do thoughDragonLady1 said:
That would make it a lot worse. Although i will have to sleep alone in a couple of days, and i'm already terrified of it even though it's only one night :/A couple of nights ago my boyfriend didn't get to sleep much at all, because he had to watch me, because he didn't know if i was going to die or something. He said that i was breathing really strangely, and i had long breaks when i didn't breathe at all. *sigh*
@idari: please don't take offense at this, rest assured that i think i've discovered what i'm about to say through very unpleasant experiences (eg my dad falling sick), so i'm just trying to help, but:
did it never occur to you - and the other people on here that are more whiny than the average, including me - that we might be inclined to give mental/emotional space to certain types of feelings because we know that someone is going to try and soothe us? i am trying to say that probably if you didn't know that your boyfriend is there to help you pick up the pieces you would put far more energy in not falling apart. when one has the feeling that displays of sadness, grief, or even anger will go unnoticed and unheeded, the need for said displays is greatly reduced. i also think that's why most people are at their worst with their families and closest friends - because they know that their outbursts are going to be tolerated, whereas people we're less intimate with would probably just tell us to go fuck ourselves. that's why sometimes aggressive behavior is labeled as 'a cry for attention' (not that i believe this to be true in the majority of cases, but sometimes it is). but i'm off on a tangent here. back on topic: are you sure that you are not indulging these troubles a bit too much because you know that someone will be there to help you? if that's the case, try and break the mechanism asap - life's most definitely too short for unnecessary sadness.

I know exactly what Hyena means... one of the reasons in my time of need I was all over this place like a bad emo rash is exactly what she was saying. Although I think I coped with the torment quite well, I had no one to fall apart on and be picked up by. My freinds were just giving me the 'I told you so' treatment, even though they really didnt know my ex at all, they just assumed they knew, and my family were a big ball of exasperation at other stuff going on, like my grandma falling down and smashing her hip. However much that's not a fatal thing, it really did mean alot of work for my parents, visiting constantly and ferrying things around for her. Everything was turned upside down for a few weeks. So I'd usual show weekness most in the posts I made here. I'm grateful for people who offered advice and just some kind of emotional support throughout it all, because I needed it really. I wish I could have just been put that extra effort in to dealing with it on my own... but in the hard times, I couldn't help ranting.
NF: Pretty good. Had a boring night out last night for the bulk of the bar goings and such, until four of us decided to walk 11 miles home. We found some balloons and a trolley and put our friend in the trolley full of baloons and pushed him all the way home while laughing heartily and being generally very merry. Got home at 6.30 AM. Slept. Woke up read, ate, came on here.
