Or bit of both. I often post sympathy and I also whine a lot.
I will however refrain from posting in this thread again, since it apparently tags me for judgement. Chocolatl, my condolences. Horrible timing, but as you say, at least she is no longer suffering. *hugs* |

*smiles* thanks Limey. I am a little touchy at the moment (in middle of another political firefight, or rather a continuation of the faction war :P) Pilau is definately getting better. I was worried yesterday when his neck started to bleed profusely and looked like a raw mass, so took him back to the vets (he was less than pleased by that development) who said it's a good sign, the cyst is definately a cyst and nothing more sinister, as it's now burst. He now has a shaved patch on his neck so the size of the swelling is visible....it's fucking huge! and a hole in his neck which I am reliably informed will heal once all the 'material' has come out. The skin is deeply brujised from the pressure of the swelling, but the vet gave him some painkillers and even stronger anti-inflammatories. Temperature is now down to 102 (yey) and he is starting to act more like Pilau again....like begging for food and taking an inordinate amount of interest in the biscuit cupboard
This really should go in the what's making you happy thread, but it always seems better to feed back here :P |

Well I'm #5 on the list and I barely remember posting here. Of course some people are so self-important the just start a new thread of their own when they want to whine... :p

Maybe the conclusion is...Those are the top people that actually give a rats ass? You know- The top nice people.
You know... The ones that have consistently kept me from hurting other people for the greater good of society (unbeknownst to their oh so kind souls). Or the ones who are just generally helpful. The top people that don't like it when others are upset. And hope to golly they have a good answer. Yes LJ, I have jumped to a conclusion..but I don't know what you were thinking or what conclusions you thought could/ should be made, and I sure as hell know, you don't know what conclusion I ultimately made. The above statements of mine are pretty close.

Eduardo, one of my favorite players had his career ended today by a complete shit dirty tackle. He had the defender beat, so he was hacked down. To say that this tackle was anything other than an attempt to take a player out is utter nonsense. He'll be lucky if he can even run in a year, let alone play. The rest of the photos are too gruesome to post.

Oh that's fucking awful. The lad's leg was broken by that tackle. I don't think anybody believes it was anything other than a dirty tackle though Lookout, the offending player got the red card. Sometimes I think there should be room for something more severe though, like a six month ban or something. That was an appalling foul.

Ouch. I am all too familiar with Selly Oak Hospital. Double Ouch.
Nah, it's not that bad really, just surprised me he was taken there. I guess it's effectively a uni hospital, though.

Yeah I saw that on telly. It looked nasty.
Oh and yeah I've been whining quite a bit lately. Life is on the up and up now though, so hopefully I'll spend less time here other than to wish others well. Choco, I'm sorry about your grandma. Don't let it put a dark cloud on your wedding though. Try and stay positive, and remember, we're all here if you need a chat. It sucks dogs balls, but you're going to get through it. *hugs*
