Dear Own Your Friends Player,
We regret to inform you that as of May 8th, 2011, this game will no longer be available for play. We appreciate your support and thank you in advance for your effort in making Own Your Friends such a great place. It makes us sad to shut down a game but it will let us spend more time on making new, great, games for you. On Myspace, please check out Mobsters, Sorority Life or WSOP Poker if you are looking for more fun!
At least as far as people wanting to complain to me.. but not take any advice, and I really don't have any words of comfort to even offer, because they wouldn't accept them anyway.
Too many people only think of themselves anymore.. sure, you always see people flock to a cause, or donate time/money to do good deed for someone else and that's all well and good. But I often wonder if the real reason we do that is for that good feeling we get, and not so much because we think it's the right or moral thing to do. I think that ties in to the lack of patience I see these days too. The modern world spinning by at a blazing pace, and everyone thinks they have to keep up.
Sorry if I offended anyone, just had to get some ramblings out of my head in about the only place I know I can have a word's peace without being criticized. I ought to keep a journal I could pass on to someone someday. Trouble is I don't know if anyone would read it anyway. Plus it's hard to convey my thoughts on any standard media, as if that makes any sense either.
as for me, i've seen way too many times someone run behind the bushes at 94 and snelling to grab their sign to start their "shift" that i'm way too cynical. besides, i'm usually in "driver carries no cash, he's married" mode anyway :smile:
the only place he can get it is in myspace hehe
and he said bush :sillygrin:
:smile:
Tough stuff just seems to surface in groups. Not really with the living tonight. :coolfrown:
Looks like you and I were both up at 3:30. You should have called and we could have commiserated.
I'm still getting sucker-punched by the after-effects of a complicated root canal procedure. Hoping to feel good enough by Friday to go to MQT and get my spring/summer clothes, although with this weather, who needs spring/summer clothes?
GRrrrrrrrrrr!!!!
Ever since I borrowed my parents money it seems like I've been running into nothing but bills. When I had a healthy amount of money in my checking account, I barely seemed to have any bills, now that I'm low, everyone seems to want a piece.
I've been so close to being debt free, in fact I haven't carried a balance on a credit card in a few years. Now I'm dangerously close to carrying a balance on a card again.
I need to find cheap/free activities to do for a while... bag lunches for work too. Guess it's a good time/excuse to go on a diet... clean out the fridge..heh.
The worst for me is most of the screw ups are completely unintentional, the others are just conflicting reasons, or honest mistakes. It's enough to make me question why I spend so much of my life trying to be in peoples good graces. Why do I even want to be in their good graces? I guess because I don't want to be the jerk that doesn't care. Although, sadly the jerk that doesn't care often seems to have a lot less trouble in life.
All I can tell you is that you are letting your spirit/soul guide you, and that most of the world does not operate that way. You are a positive force, in a world of people who tend towards negativity. One of the most difficult tasks for the healers of the world - and you are so clearly one of them - is to let go of the outcomes. Continue to do what you do, from your loving soul, but always check your boundaries. Once I've been burned (by people who can't see all the good I do, but remember every last little screw-up) I spend some time before I see them again, thinking of what I will say if it happens again. I try to frame it from a place of compassion, but nonetheless, make sure that it clearly lets them know I won't tolerate their hurtful comments anymore. It is, of course, a skill that takes awhile to perfect! I hope this helps. I have been where you are. It can feel very lonely. Please know that all that is good supports you and loves you!
It's kind of tough to be done with something you have done for so long that it's just become part of your routine. Other volunteers have come and gone from the program, but I've helped ever since I could. I guess that's the other tough part, just seeing the group degrade to ending on a bad note, and no one else seemed to care.
I guess it frees up a few hours of time for me a week, but I'll miss it none the less. I don't really feel like volunteering in another capacity nor to any other organization either. As it is, I spend well over 80% of my days doing things for other people, possibly more, I really don't have time to figure that all out.
Tired... need some rest.
Then this time next year, with a new sense of purpose and energy you will find a new cause and get right back into volunteering! :grin:
We were staying at a B&B in St. Augustine, when they did the same thing. The clanking and beeping is really loud in those narrow streets at 5am.
Right now, with a new grandbaby in the family, DIL recovering from every complication in the book, and still having to go to work every day, I am so short on sleep, I don't need to be up in the dark.
Grats on the new baby btw :smile:
If it is bothersome, at least you know who to call. Nicole is very sympathetic and seems like she is really trying to help resolve the situation.
