Pretty sure I know who you’re talking about and that was a sad one for sure. We got our senior dogs around the same time, and I loved seeing his picture come up in my feed so much. He was such a sweet little guy!
Yes! I felt like he was mine. So many pictures. So much love. This sucks.
Three months ago one of my closest friends needed a job, so I offered her a position where I work. Didn't hesitate about that decision at all, because I (thought I) knew her well and had no doubts that things would be fine. After working for three weeks, she got a different position that was full-time and immediately had to cut her hours to almost nothing. Then she broke her foot and had to be out for two months, and told me that she could just work during winter break/summer break. I told her that I thought it'd be best if she didn't because she was already stretching herself in multiple directions while juggling a full-time job and two part-time jobs. She said that was fine and seemed totally cool with it. Then a week later she unfriended me on Facebook, and when I asked her why she said it was an accident, but then didn't accept a friend request from me. I let it go, figuring she needed space or whatever. We've been friends for ten years and I know that a working relationship can make things weird for some, and since she said she didn't think working together affected our relationship, I figured I'd just give her some time and she'd come around.
This was two months ago. I messaged her today gently asking for an explanation and to know what was going on, since she was such a good friend and I've known her for so long. She replied saying that she realized that apparently we had grown very far apart, and that I didn't do anything wrong but she realized she was being toxic towards me and since she believes in letting things go when it's time, she decided to move on.
I'm so confused. We talked multiple times a week, about things big and small. As of mid-September she asked me to be in her wedding. But now apparently we've grown very far apart? To have one of your closest friends of over a decade actively decide that they don't want you in their life is a fresh kind of pain that I've never really experienced outside of a romantic breakup. This one hurts. There's gotta be something she's not telling me, right? Like, I'd rather her say that working with me made her realize I was a shitty person and she wants nothing to do with me than to be told that we apparently didn't have the friendship I thought we did. (And it was only ever just friendship, in case anyone's wondering). Ugh, this sucks.

My grandfather passed away yesterday morning. It wasn't unexpected, but it still hurts, especially since my brother passed away in January last year. He was my last grandparent, and he never even got to me my sisters son unfortunately. I'm happy to see my extended family, just not under these circumstances

Just read this. Is she still not talking to you?
Not at all, and I’m not expecting her to. It is what it is, really. Bullshit and bizarre, but not something I can change regardless.

It hurts. I lost a friend I had for 30 years. We were in each others weddings. Now we don't speak.
I can only imagine she was hurt over the job loss. And it may seem stupid, but she is projecting that onto you. Somehow you are to blame for this, and the best way to deal with that is cut you out. It hurts.

It’s been two weeks now since my stepdad died. It’s one of those times when the thing that happened seems like it couldn’t possibly have been two weeks ago because it feels like it was somehow much longer ago and not nearly that long ago all at the same time.

Pretty sure my kid has pinkeye (not 100% sure because I've never had it) but I can't go anywhere to do anything about it today because both my co-workers are out
Also because both of my co-workers are out I'm being bombarded with shit.

Just cancelled my SE Asia vacation/buddy's wedding in India. Was supposed to leave tomorrow morning for Hong kong->singapore->calcutta->bangkok->HK. My biggest fear was getting quarantined and/or stuck over there if the situation were to deteriorate even more over the next two weeks. Had to pay cancellation fees but at least I got a partial refund. Noteworthy:travel insurance doesn't cover pandemics. Ironically I could have gotten a full refund if I had gotten like, the flu over here in the US.
crazykittensmile, Pink eye sucks. All I have to do is look at someone with it and I can feel it. It's one of those things your body reacts to once you've had it. It spreads like f'n wildfire, and the eyedrops do burn a little but clear the shit up in a couple of days. It's pretty rare for someone in a household to get it and not everyone else. Eyes crust, they sting and it just generally sucks. Super highly contagious.

He's good now after a couple days of drops. Nobody else got it, so I'm starting to wonder if he was just wiping his runny nose into his eyes (which is disgusting, but clearly less contagious lol). Just has a really yucky cough now, poor kiddo.
Just found out my aunt was diagnosed with colon cancer. She literally had to bury her dad/my grandfather a couple of weeks ago. I really wish my family could get a fucking break. Also, now I have a new anxiety that I’m definitely going to get cancer when I’m older. My dad died of a brain tumor, his sister was just diagnosed with colon cancer, and my mom survived breast cancer when I was younger. I’m not sure if there’s someone out there with a voodoo doll for all of my family members but it sure feels like it.

Just a grr that I'm one of the better DJs in our town and I rarely get booked unless an exboyfriend (who I'm not speaking to) brings up my name. Every time I play I have a packed dance floor, I mix better than the majority of folks who get booked however just yesterday they (a large group of djs) put out a huge lineup of locals, including some who have never played on anything except their computer at a house party, and I'm left totally out of the loop. The lineup, and I know 90% of them, has no female DJs at all. It's so frustrating!
I'm so fucking done trying to explain to people that police using riot gear and military tactics on citizens is not ok. That is not ok for police to murder anyone. That is not ok to prioritize property over human life. Wtf is wrong with people?

That does suck, I always enjoy your mixes when I see them on Soundcloud. Need to check and see if I missed a recent one!
My apartment complex poisoned and killed all of the Canadian Geese in our neighborhood. I was out to walk my dog and a man stopped to warn me that there were dozens of dead geese laying out around the neighborhood. Me and some other neighbors went out to investigate and take pictures. I had to watch one that was still alive out in the middle of the pond suffering. At first the office had the nerve to tell people that these geese were sleeping and supposed to be sedated and moved. These geese had been laying out there for at least a couple hours. What's scary is I don't know how they were poisoned. Can my dogs accidentally eat that poison when I take them out? Anyways it's a federal offense, police fish and wildlife are conducting an investigation.

Holy shiz! Wonder if it was on purpose or if it was some kind of pesticide in the grass/water that did it.

My whopping 6-day unpaid "vacation" is looking awesome. I have nowhere to go and really need to do some roofing, exterior painting, and driveway repair, so this is looking great. Yay.
At least when I go back to work I'll be able to catch coronavirus from the kids who are going back to their unsafe schools, and their parents. Maybe the weather will cooperate better when I'm forced to take my two weeks of Emergency Paid Sick Leave, LOL.

Maybe it'll only be those pop up storms that are hit and miss and you only get rain twice or so out of the six.
