[QUOTE="Ankh-Morpork Guard, post: 1927269, member: 10079"] Well, I'll join you. I'm currently sitting in the cold downstairs room of my parent's house in Atlanta. Did I mention it was cold? Gods I hate cold...I've given up on sleeping for the night. Night? Hell, its 8AM, night was over long ago. Its been a long night of me laying in bed trying to not think. I think I've finally come to the conclusion that coming back to the states in September was a bad idea. I don't belong here. I don't like it here. And no matter how bad things got for me in Britain, I felt good there. I'd go back in a second...except I have no money. I have no nothing. No job. No school. No motivation. I'm too damned young to be doing this to myself. I should be out living and enjoying myself. And to make it all worse, I can't get the girl who tore me apart out of my head. I won't rehash that long story, but her baby is due any time now. It should bother me, but it doesn't. What does bother me is I can't stop caring about her. I know without a doubt that things were right...but to see one choice rip all that apart still haunts me. I've got no one to talk to anymore. She was it. The only person that really could listen to me. Now she won't even speak to me...and I didn't even do anything. I know time heals wounds, but it really needs to heal faster...or fix things. Or anything at this point. This would have been our first Christmas actually together. Damn. I babbled more than I meant to...chalk it up to no sleep. Ryan's got the best words. "No one ever gets anything good done when they're depressed". I suggest finding something that can make you happy and doing that. I, on the other hand, will continue to remain a mess so that I have time to run the many PbP games and serve as a benchmark for how you improve. ;) [/QUOTE]
