What's On Your Mind

[Jazzy]

This thread was created to talk about whatever is on your mind. I call this the free zone where there is no particular topic. The topic is up to you and whatever is on your mind today.



I'll start by saying I was thinking today how much I truly hate the holidays. I can't wait for them to be over. The holidays bring back memories that I don't want to think about.

Ouch, sorry that's happening. As for my mind, I'm thinking its a little cold in here for my liking.

Ever notice how much nicer people are during the holidays? How come it ends when the holidays do?

 

[MrMetroid]

The fact that I confused Finland with Slovakia and Slovenia today

Good question.

The holidays bring back memories that I don't want to think about.

Me too.



When I'm busy at work I don't have time to ponder on things. When it's the holidays, although I enjoy the time off, I start thinking about things which upset me. In the past few years I've been incredibly depressed over Christmas. This year is not too bad so far. It's been a bit bumpy, but I'm counting the days until I can go back to work.

Thinking right now about how much I want and need to work tonight. As a Paramedic, tonight and tomorrow nights are the busiest times for us. I'm angry that I'm sick and cannot report to work. I feel like I'm letting my co-workers and crew members down.

Don't fret Jazzy, you can't help it and it's not going to get better if you fret about it

 

[The Dragon Master]

Blah. Argument with friends isn't nice

Seems like if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. I no sooner get extra money that I want to put into my savings account when something happens and all the extra money is gone.

I'm thinking of a multitude of things; religion, how I want the holidays to be over, moving, how my mom and brother's job is in jeopardy...

Time to go stir the pasta.

What's on my mind? Psycho-kinetic iterations...



...but really, as for what's on my mind...I'm not actually someone who gets too upsets due to the holidays, themselves. The intent is for them to be joyous, and I realise that. There are proximal events that I have experienced to the holidays, which really aren't positive at all, but I've gotten over them for the past couple of years, this year I guess I am just a weaker person, or something, and it's dwelling, and I can't close my eyes and tell it to go away like I usually do...and then, like Jazzy says, I seriously have no luck unless it's bad luck. My bank account, and projected personal deficit is looking comparatively bad enough that Republicans would declare a holiday in Obama's honour with his performance.



Jazzy, I can understand (though not from an experiential standpoint, I'm no Paramedic; awesome that you are though, thank you for saving lives) the unit mentality and the never-say-die attitude, particularly in your line of work. However, consider that if you were working and there was a patient that had some sort of open trauma wound and an compromised immune system, the strep. could mean death to that person - it could kick up a notch to a drug resistant strain, and then there is a lot of problems at that point. By manner of not being in the action, you also could be saving lives by preventing transmission. Even though I couldn't ever serve as a Paramedic, I appreciate your work, because I've been on the receiving end of a Paramedic's touch, and might not be here today if there wasn't one. I managed to be involved in a P/ALS training as well and the skills helped me save someone from a near-drowning as well.

Can't wait until tomorrow morning when my dogs try to open their presents. It's always so funny and half the time they wind up running through the house with bows and paper stuck to them. They have more fun with that than they do with the presents.

Nothing is on my mind. seems to be on my mind.

 

[The Dragon Master]

How utterly, increasingly, mind-bogglingly, gigantically bored I am

Trying to figure out why a person disappears from your life and then tries to come back in like nothing ever happened.

Wishing his body wasn't so sore...ach.

Thinking that Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 is a lot better then 2011.
