Pfft.
Don't worry, Gas. Unlike Facebook, WE can tell the difference between psychopaths and sociopaths.

Not in my yard. Hot, but the leaves are definitely falling.

That's very strange, the post is marked public, anyone should be able to watch it whether they're friended or not, or even if they aren't logged in to facebook.
Hey, did @ThatNickGuy have a cameo in the closing credits?

Yes, as did Gusto, Krisken, Kags, Jwhouk, Dave, Wasabi, Terrik and Jun, because the only people on my friends list are Halforumites.
Yup, one of the reasons I stopped taking little side jobs the instant I no longer needed the occasional extra money.

I've done them in the past and it was no big deal, but the guy showed up today with quadruple the amount of stuff to produce from what I was expecting... and I would have cried foul except he also has paid me quintuple the usual.
It's not about the money though. I don't mind helping out for a half hour or so, but this could potentially be 3 hours, and it's super irritating because his client wants to micromanage everything despite not being here, so we have to do something, e-mail it, wait for a response, then redo it... and we've got twelve two-minute scripts to do like this (I'm sound producer, the guy I'm helping out is just voice talent and doesn't know how to use Adobe Audition or anything).
Guuhhh Really, I'd do a half hour's work for free, but you can't pay me enough for 3 hours.

No DOS2 till thursday, due to people having rl stuff
*sigh* I can't sleep. (And no, fuck off with "Clown will eat you?" or any "clever" variation. Just fuck off.) Depression is hitting me hard lately.
I saw Aussie's shark in there, too.
I'm too fat for a Henry VIII costume. :/
Maybe the costume is based on his badass athlete pre-accident proportions?
I need to remember that entire list of things I was going to do today that I dreamed up before I fell asleep but never committed to any more...permanent form.

Send your squire to find the costume stretcher.
I can’t sleep either. I’m in a weird place lately. I’m either asleep all the time or wide awake and stressed out about my dad’s health or angry about how badly the hospital screwed up with him. I’ll be there this weekend and it will be a struggle not to flip out on someone.
My new biologic is making me tired all the time. I really hope that stops soon. I can’t sleep so much. I know it’s strange because I usually complain that I can’t sleep due to pain, but there must be a happy medium somewhere.

Cortisone not helping? I'd suggest heating it, but if it IS thermolabile, that might accidentally reduce the effect of the shot, so ehhh...

We had just an awful day today. My daughter and I went up to spend the day with my dad at the hospital and just as we arrived he was taken to the ICU. They did an emergency surgery bedside there (it was so urgent that they weren't waiting for an OR) and another smaller procedure later on. I've never been more scared.
He's in pretty bad shape. He's having more side effects/complications from his surgery and his follow up emergency surgery. I'm so glad that we're here.

He’s doing a bit better today, but he will be in the hospital for months recovering. It’s pretty scary.
And the Bydureon experiment is officially kaput. I developed a huge-ass rash at the site of my most recent injection - we're talking baseball-size rash - and the other two most recent injection sites still have their raised bumps. This new one itched like a blankety-blank, and was ultra-sensitive to touch.
I am now on antibiotics, off the Bydureon, and out $50 for my most recent prescription of the pens.

Yikes. All the hugs are being sent your way Squids. Let us know if there's anything we can help you with when you come back home. IRL hugs are available too if @HCGLNS is tapped out.
OK, a lot less serious because man I thought the whine thread was the "smallest" issues in comparison to Minor Rant and Rant, sheesh 
Anyway, my former boss/coordinator is leaving at where I used to work. Considering it's his job I wanted in the first place and I only left becausethat spot was never going to open up, and I'm unhappy at my current place...hey, let's throw in my resumé!
...Except they haven't opened the function for external candidates, and they've put the deadline to apply at tomorrow.
Rats.
I mean, I'm still going to throw my hat in - the only two people who have applied so far to my knowledge were both formed and trained by me - but....Sigh.
