I feel ya.

My life has descended into a bucket of violence and stupidity that has had a bit of an effect on me.  I don't feel like I have many friends, and I am not entirely certain I deserve the ones I do have.  I am reasonably certain that I'm not depressed, as I don't have any of the symptoms of depression other than the above.  I think instead that my mental picture of my world is accurate right now.

Which, of course, doesn't improve things one iota.

That's how I feel.

Crap. :( You hang in there, too. Any word on your wife's health?

Last tests are Monday.  Looks like she lost weight so fast her glucophage dose was suddenly too high for her, and she bombed out.

And I'll be fine.  I always am.  I mentioned, once, the "glass hallway" effect.  My head's in there a lot, but I'm maintaining.  I need to get out of this fucking trap I've put myself in, while I'm still somewhat human.

I'm glad to hear she's OK! And that you will be, too.

I second this.

In other news, out of the blue I found out that my stepmom divorced my dad this summer. I'm just like, what the actual fuck? I realize that he's been a pain in  the ass these last few years and will continue to get worse, but can you just divorce your spouse of 25+ years when Alzheimers starts setting in?

"In sickness and in health."  At least for me.

Yeah, what's that saying? That the end result of a successful marriage is watching your spouse die? Maybe that does suck, but I can't imagine just abandoning someone I'd spent my life with like that.

I can't even fathom that. 25+ years together? And then to leave. That's horrid.

Yeah, I can't really wrap my head around it.

Roger and Coyote: you have friends.

Nigel: damn. I could never, regardless of how uncomfortably painful it would be. I'm sorry.

Thank you. I'm OK and he's OK, I'm just kind of baffled by it.

For the past six years I've been trying to get this 4-Pole filter plugin back after a crash.  Today I found a port to the right release, discontinued by new owner company.  So stoked =)

Stupid soundcloud has been processing some new recordings for the last half hour.

Good luck with that.

Found out the problem. For some reason soundcloud won't finish processing a track until it gets a tag, but since I upload from my phone that portion of the upload process is missing. I therefore have to go to soundcloud via computer and tag my new tracks.

It's fucking dumb. I might migrate over to ReverbNation.

It's just developmentally challenged food forest, jeez.

I am pretty sure I have the black plague, and the 7-11 up the street doesn't sell any nosegays. I'm pretty sure I'm going to die out of my nostrils and anus at the same time.

My new job/internship is simply amazing.

I'm all up in the Internet's backend and it's exactly as unkempt and hairy as you might imagine it to be. PHP, virtual machines, SSH, JavaScript, Python, it's good times. Code that runs code that runs code—that's my new life.
