Hello world. First & foremost...What is going on with Xanga? Betwen "up-grading" yesterday... Today, I can post comments on SOME sites, but not everyone's....BIZARRE!
So, yesterday & today sucked...BIG time. Work was insane. I ended up doing emergency surgery with Robin on a dog that was attacked by a couple of other dogs (house-mates, mind you & this isn't the first time this happened to this poor dog. Don't get me started, this REALLY pissed me off...) And today, we had 2 emergencies come in before 9 am. Can we say craziness?! Not to mention, everyone at work has had a huge bug up their ass & it's made it to be a bad past couple of days for me. I'd really rather not re-hash it...It annoys the shit out of me. Best not to dwell. But, it has got me thinking...
I just don't get it. I like where I work, I do some really interesting things there & overall, it's pretty good. But, I stand out like a sore thumb. I do not belong there. I know I'm odd, and I've come to embrace that (to some extent). But, I just don't blend with these people, not even close. Ok, fine, so I don't "fit in" (geez, how high-school does that sound?!). But, ya know, I've worked in A LOT of places. I can tell you horror stories from pretty much every one. Now I know work is not going to be paradise, but could I at least find a job that treats me like a human being?! So, of course, "scientific" person that I am, look for lowest common denominator: ME! It has to be me. Are my expectations too high? Am I really the problem? If almost every place was so terrible & the only thing they had in common is me, what does that say about me? I decided today I don't really belong anywhere (high-schoolish sounding, I know. Hear me out). I am strange, I'm the first to admit it. How I got this way, I don't know. All the abusive relationships in the past? I'm sure they had SOME effect on it, whether it's the only reason or not, I don't know. Was I born this way? I've always been "different" since birth...Again, I just don't know if it's more magnified, if experiences/people helped increase it or what. It just sucks. Not that I want to be the typical, "normal" Long Island girl. Perish the thought! They are superficial & whoar-ish & not very bright....Yuck! But, I'm looking for that sense of home...Never found it in NY, and really only in 1 job which I regret leaving. I don't know where to go. I know people help that sense, but right now, things are odd with people. Lauren & I are good, but she lives so far away, so it's hard. Things have been off with Dawn, Justin & that gang. I have no idea what's up with Lynn or Stephen or that crowd. And, well, there's something going on with some women. I placed an on-line ad with a lesbian/bi magazine. Been talking to a couple of women, but nothing of any real consequence or significance has happened as of yet. This is new for me & is just odd, twisting my world in a new way (and it's not bad either). But, I don't feel worthy. I feel like a short, lowly, unattractive piece of shit that, according to some co-workers this week, can't do anything right. These women are GORGEOUS. I am sure that they want nothing to do with me. Why would they when they have so much better to choose from? Sigh....I wish I was never born. I'm not suicidal, but...I just don't belong here, I don't have a clue as to what my mission here might be. It, and me/my existance, just seem rather pointless. I promise, I'm not depressed or suicidal. But, right now, I feel like my dad was right all along. Oh well. C'est la vie...Such is life, right? Well, I'm off to cast off this negative energy...Gonna meditate & then I have a spell to cast. Good night, all.

I know the feeling. You are not alone, trust me.
Maybe the whole country is just fucked up.
Peace.
Maybe?!
Girl, I'm gonna smack you upside the head!!!! You are FINE!!:tsktsk:UGH. Quit being so hard on yourself!!!! OKAY?! Now that I've kicked some sense into ya...I hope you have a better day!!:smile:
Eep! I sent you this really long comment about not feeling bad about yourself and everything and it got erased somehow...I hope it sends this time...what I was trying to say was, it's not your fault...it's not you at all...maybe you're just living in a place right now where the people think differently than you do, and that's not your fault at all. A lot of jobs these days are just too stressful for the people working at them and they'll take things out on other people, sometimes targeting people unlike themselves. During highschool I was the victim of a lot of bullies who wanted to beat me up to take out their own frustrations because I was "geeky looking". I didn't feel like I fit in most of the time...but then going to college has changed that...now I feel like I fit in more, i'm around more like-minded people and i'm slowly gaining more friends...you just need to find your niche is all. As for the online dating thing...you shouldn't take it to heart because, well, it's online...but even though I haven't seen a picture of you, I still know that you're a beautiful person...if anyone says otherwise i'll smack them upside the head! :hammer: I have to go now but I wish you a lot of luck *hugs* feel better soon! Take care and blessed be!
