Look into a zune! To most, outdated technology but to me…awesome. I got mine on ebay for about $30 (after bidding on about 10 and losing them) and it’s 30GB hard drive based. If you want a little somethin’ somethin’ to take on your walk, I have an old Rio Forge Sport I’m not using. It’s only 30MB (yes, megs) but has an expandable slot so you can make it as big as you want. I’ll send it to you for shipping if you want. I also have another, bigger (8GB with an expandable slot) Sony? I forget the brand. MP3 player if you want. (or if anyone wants it. Don’t think I can sell it and don’t want to give it away to strangers if I can help it. Y’all aren’t strangers!)
thanks for the offer but hubby and I went halfies on a new one last night….I have my music back again!
is the sony a Fuze? If so how big and what color. I’m trying to replace mine, but ehy dont make em anymore and they become popular enough that they cost more on ebay that when they were actually out..

Ack, rewriting my original post… it didn’t make much sense (To go into detail would be pages upon pages of writing, due to countless cruddy situations after another) – I just want to get out of this rut I’m in 🙁 I’ve been stuck in it for months now and every time I think it’ll turn up.. it just dives again.
*Sigh* This is why I haven’t hardly been on here… I’m just too fuzzy minded over all the cr*p… and what really sucks is the one source I always turn to for support, has been far too involved in itself…
Heh, it’s bad when I want to rant, but I’m so tired of being whiny that I don’t want to go into the details, and even to try to, it won’t make hardly any sense…
Work stuff isn’t working out anymore… My own business that I’ve spent 12 years building and fine tuning is just falling to pieces around me (Just a word of advise. Don’t *ever* work with family. It does not end well!)… and I don’t know what I want to do with my life, for the first time in 15 years and that scares the cr*p out of me… family is so centered on their own problems that they don’t see the problems they’re causing around them from it… really need to find a better place to live but can’t afford to move to a different apt… financial issues right and left… and not even wanting to get into the personal cluster-f*** that’s causing… and generally, the people around me are demanding everything of me, and all the while, only thinking of themselves and not even glancing to see what they’re doing to me, and it’s starting to hurt that no one see’s what it is doing to me = and all the while, I’m bitching about everyone being selfish, that I don’t want to do the same darn thing, when reality is, that is probably exactly what I need to do, put my foot down and do what is right for me, not for everyone else…
*facedesk* I don’t know how I managed to let everyone do this to me, but I need to change how people see me and treat me, cause I am not a doormat, especially to the people who mean the most to me 🙁Sorry to hear that Kaytana! I hope things get better and they start treating you better! Maybe you could break away from your family and do business on your own?

You DO have to put your foot down and think of yourself for once. It is hard, darn right, and they may never understand your point of view or see what they were doing was wrong, but you know what, it doesnt really matter ! If they truly love you they will see the light in the end.
You only live once, and life is too short to constantly be suffering for the well-being of others. What about YOU? You deserve happiness as much as anyone else , so maybe its time you took control and put yourself first 😉 (sure its ok to put others first occasionally, as we care and want to help them, but not all the time… the only peson that can truly take care of ourselves, is ourself… so put your foot down, and take care of YOU ) *hugs*

(Wanted......Brimstone Lap)
Male Hearth....one day🤞Dream on.While I have enough hobbies at home that I don’t get bored much, I’ve been kinda lonely and wishing I was better at making friends. Seems like each of the few I had either moved away or just kinda faded away, not wanting to get together anymore, always being too “busy,” leading me to give up. I’m not ALONE, since I have my husband. But it’d be nice to have another friend or 2, maybe someone that shares the interests of mine that my husband doesn’t, or just someone I can laugh and have fun with. When I remember fun times I had with friends in the past (I never had a lot but at least had a couple good ones), I realize how little fun and laughing like that I experience nowadays. It’s kinda sad.
There’s a girl I work with that I’m thinking about trying to become more than work-friends with but am not really sure how to go about it. I’ll probably ask if she wants to come over and watch Lord of the Rings with me sometime since I know we both like that (we both like a number of nerdy and geeky thinks actually). But I can’t help worrying it won’t go well or that she’ll feel obligated to be nice but won’t really want to hang out. She’s also super busy between work and going to vet tech school and trying to spend time with her husband I’m sure. But I guess one of these days I just need to get up the guts to ask. She may be leaving when she finishes vet school, as she’s talked about trying for an internship in Hawaii.
Part of me doesn’t want to try to make friends anymore since I become disappointed when friendships don’t last. But I don’t want to always be friend-less. It kinda sucks!

No one wants to be alone or friendless! We are meant to be social. I found I was isolating myself when I dated my ex and lost a lot of friends that ended up getting married and moving away and I didn’t try and keep in touch with them when I should have. I have most of them on facebook but didn’t talk to anyone for a long time which got lonely. When I broke up with my now ex, I realized I didn’t have anyone to hang out with. We even tried to be friends because we realized that but it was hard. It wasn’t until I got away from that, I started putting myself out there and attending ballroom and latin dances where I met people as well as choir, church groups, hiking groups, meetup groups, etc. The more people I met, the easier it was to talk to other girls and start suggesting things to do for fun. I made friends with some girls and we now do board game and movie nights, pot lucks, go rollerskating, hiking, dancing, rafting and play sports in bigger groups. I would suggest looking up meetup.com for your area or trying groups like I mentioned where other people want to meet you! If you do talk to someone you want to get to know more like you mentioned above, then definitely suggest events or things you can go to together. You don’t have to make friends with people for life but sometimes just in the short term it’s nice to know others with similar interests who could use a friend too.

Take a chance phantom. It’s sucks being without friends. We’re social creatures after all. If you ask your coworker to do something you both like and they turn you down…you haven’t lost anything. The chance to chat and learn more about each other is totally worth it! You might even get a new friend out of it!

Hey there! Do you still live in Colorado Springs? I’d love to meet you if you’ve got the time. To be perfectly honest, I could use a friend to hang out with as well.
Thanks for the responses, you guys. 🙂
Yes Skylover, I’m in Colorado Springs. Are you the one I talked with a little in another thread a while back about maybe meeting sometime? I ended up totally forgetting, I guess. I’d be up for that I think- I’m kinda shy at first though. 🙂This Friday evening at my church they’re having a ‘ladies night’ for all women to go to, with food, games & somebody speaking… I signed up that I’d be going although it made me a little nervous to do so, lol. Not sure how it’ll go; I don’t always fit in. And I look about 13 years old despite being 28, so that’s another reason I tend not to fit in.
While I don’t relish in posting about 2 negative things back to back like this, might as well share this too, as sharing can sometimes kinda help relieve burdens. I got a phone call today but I’ll start at the beginning. In 2013, I went to a dermatologist and had a little mole removed which had developed a bit of a different tone/coloring around it. I didn’t have insurance at the time so just chose a random dr (didn’t have to choose one that was in-network and all that). When I showed it to her, she didn’t think it looked concerning, but I asked her to remove it anyway. It tested as moderate atypical neevus (something that has the potential to be pre-cancerous) and they had me come back in to remove more tissue from the area to make sure they got it all.
A little later when I got insurance and chose a regular primary care doctor, she told me that I should start having annual skin exams by a dermatologist for the rest of my life. So since then I’ve seen a dermatologist (a different one) twice for an exam, and during my recent visit I had him remove 4 moles which were a concern to me, even though he thought at least 2 of them didn’t look worrisome (since those 2 moles were just little brown flecks, with some subtle coloring that had developed around them). Guess what, the 2 that he thought looked least worrisome turned out to be atypical neevus again and I’ve got to go back for more tissue removal. I got the phone call about those this morning and set up an appointment for late July for that.
Now I feel like the skin exams are useless since my atypical things seem to be too subtle in appearance for dermatologists to give accurate judgment on. And now I can’t help feeling a bit paranoid since I’ve had a total of 3 atypical things removed (and I’m only in my 20s). I even have a couple other moles right now kinda similar to those and feel like I should ask him to get rid of those too. But the bills for all of these add up even with insurance.
I have a ton of little moles on my skin- now I have to be worried that they’ll be out to get me? Gah!
2 out of 3 of the atypical ones were not even in areas that are exposed to the sun. And I do wear sunscreen when I’m outside with dogs at work. So I don’t know how the heck to explain this.Formerly had the Batman & Joker avatar!
May I ask, what kind of business? I’m looking for a job
I do dog show photography…
Problem is, the jobs are getting fewer and fewer as clubs are shutting down… among other issues we’ve been running into.………. I’m bitching about everyone being selfish, that I don’t want to do the same darn thing, when reality is, that is probably exactly what I need to do, put my foot down and do what is right for me, not for everyone else…
*facedesk* I don’t know how I managed to let everyone do this to me, but I need to change how people see me and treat me, cause I am not a doormat, especially to the people who mean the most to me 🙁I been there years back… being treated like a well-used doormat… and you know your right.

I’ve been in this boat a couple times before, I’m really good about when people bark an order at me, to rearrange their train of thought right away (I *hate* being a doormat)… unfortunately, it’s easy for me to do things for those I care for to help them out, or do something small to let them know I’m thinking of them… and if I’m not careful, they come to expect it, and I don’t entirely see it until that moment someone slips and barks an order at me, then my eyes open…
I didn’t fully realize how much I was doing for others recently, but it was little things here and there among my own things.. so I didn’t care… what is weird, and frustrating is how in a sudden moment, it went from “Hey, would you mind?” to “I need this! Now!” from several different people (Spring fever? I don’t know) and people started filling in my plate for me, I was trying to subtly put in resistance, so not to upset anyone but sort of straighten things out, which usually works, but this time it didn’t… so recently I started putting my foot down, and then my frustrations started kicking in high gear, as people weren’t handling my saying no very well at all…The goal now, get everything that was put on my plate, off of my plate (Either finish it or break the news that I’m not doing it, depending on if I agreed to do it, or if I was told to do it)… fill in the blanks with ‘me’ time… and work on getting people to *understand* precisely the situation they’ve all put me in so they can stop being so darn upset at me and so I can go back to feeling like normal me – I do wish this was as easy as it sounds -_- and maybe along with all of this ‘fixing’ of the way I’m being treated.. I can find a ‘day job’ that I like, so I can stop stressing out over financial issues as well… which will also by itself help me out with the agreeing to do things for friends and family /too much/ as I will value my ‘off’ time a whole lot more! and work will hopefully not stress me much because I’m actually getting paid for taking orders 😉 heh… – I *am* trying to face this with a more ‘up-beat’ attitude.. just every now and then the stress wins out and I feel like crud…
-Thank you everyone for your support! Sometimes I just need someone to help hold me up while I gather my own strength, and you guys help with that so much! <3
