Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

Well. Today was my birthday, and not one call from my family or friends. I got wall posts on FB, so I guess that's the new call. Every other employ at work has gotten a card signed by everyone since I've been there, but not me. One went around yesterday for my boss, so I know they still do it. I had to call my wife myself, and not once during the call did she even mention my birthday. No cake or gifts. I know it's a silly whine, but you can't help being at least a little depressed.

And my sister wasn't even marrying some oily beauhunk.
 
I have to work until close today, then be here at 5am until like noon, then work from 2-8 at Starbucks then be back at dunkin again at 5am until 9 and then Starbucks from 10-4.

I'll basically work ~22 hours between friday and Saturday.

But i don't wanna, is the thing.

Hurrumph.

Been there too, man. I empathize.

Also, happy birthday. :)
 
Hey Fade, want a cheer-up?

At least you have a family/loved ones that can forget your b-day :)

Then again, I spend all of mine in drunken naked hazes, so not sure if I'm helping.
 
MARY, JESUS, AND JOSEPH IN A WOODEN CANOE!!! Fucking Yahoo! now wants my fucking cell phone #.... Dammit I've had that address for 13+years now, I don't want to leave it.

How much information to random companies is enough?

I want a new PC! My current rig does everything I need it to, but it's starting to chug in newer games. (Nevermind that I have backlog of games that it can run just fine.) It's probably not even fast enough to capture video of Darksiders at 720p, and I wanted to review the cutscenes/storyline as if I were mocking a movie TGWTG-style.
 
I want to upgrade my vid card, so I tried selling my 5870 with no luck. So right now I'm debating dropping the full $500 for a GTX580 now, pinching my budget further and getting a GTX590 for $750 or buying the GTX580 now, and a second GTX580 for SLI in March..... yet that's exactly what I said I was going to do with my 5870 but never did....
 
^ I have no idea what any of this means.

Of course, I don't even know what my own computer ate as other people assembled it for me, so I guess this is all quite natural. Especially given my current state of inebriation.

... What? This IS called the "Whine like a baby" thread, ppl!
 
Verily, thou speakest the truth! Forsooth, hath I not gazed upon thine narrative, I wouldst have been lost amidst the sheer multitude of confusing words! A thousand thanks to thee for thine noble heart, good Sir, a thousand thanks!

Faaaaade. :( You know, one part of my brains says, "birthdays past a certain point really aren't a big deal." But then I remember how much fun it is to make a big deal out of someone for a whole day with cake and silly hats and whatnot. Happy birthday, Fade! You're awesome-- a forumite worthy of the tallest pointy hat and the most delicious of layer cakes!

If it's from someone who knows you well enough to call or come by (and they don't call or come by in addition to a post), then yeah, they're kind of a bummer.

I know, poor me. I think I could submit that one to whitewhine.com. :p

And yes, mak, grapes are deee-licious in chicken salad. I use apples, red grapes, celery, and a teeny bit of white onion. So... so good. But never raisins... that would make me some kind of a freak.

Instead of white onion, I add walnuts, otherwise pretty much the same.

Uh, oh... impending steak-like debate!
No debate. Sometimes people don't like things. Fade is that person.

haha that reminds me today at lunch i found out my friend letitia likes her steak well done. i asked her politely but firmly to leave.

I am of course kidding. We were out to lunch and her meat was way too underdone for her and it ruined her meal. I felt bad for her. I totally understand why she doesnt want to see red in her meat since she used to help her family butcher their livestock. I would probably only eat beef jerky for the rest of my life if I did that. gag.
 
Goddamnit Seej if I don't get some goddamned chicken salad in the next 24 hours my stomach may collapse on itself like a dying star.
 
I'm getting donuts tomorrow. It'll be at least 2 weeks until I can swing sushi.

Chicken salad is doable! But it'll probably have to be at like a Subway or pita place, not delightfully homemade.
