Sometimes you shouldn't even log on to Facebook when you know you're feeling down. Today a person I have always viewed as someone pretty civilized and kind had posted a comment on her wall judging and belittling people who have ruined their finances. Yup, I would be one of those people....and of course she doesn't know this, and of course this was not directed at me but....you know that feeling when you can't believe someone generalizes and shows a complete lack of empathy...and you just feel like you were slapped and reduced to a very small and meaningless piece of shit.
Apparently today is also something called a Day Of Hugs or whatnot --- and another friend had posted a cutesy little photo on her wall with a cutesy little poem saying something to the effect of how everyone needs x amount of hugs a day and y amount of hugs in a week and how hugs give you good energy and make you feel loved and blah blah blah. And I was reading it thinking - when was the last time I hugged someone ? I can't remember.
And yeah, this is completely ridiculous and I can't even believe I'm writing this ! But hey, like I said....it's one of those days and well, who does that one song go ? It's my (pity) party and I cry if I want to.
Oh well. This too shall pass, it's another day tomorrow. Come to think of it, I think I'm going to bed right about n o w. Good night.
P.S. Ah, but I almost forgot - I also received a message via Facebook from a dear friend in Florida simply saying she is thinking of me and misses me. That was the highlight of my day and so.....shouldn't of course always concentrate only on the negative things.

I'm sorry you're having a bad time of it ... hang in there. Better times are coming.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so sorry to hear the day was so bad, hope today is better!
ReplyDeleteShe sounds an idiot. There are many ways that finances get ruined, with or without your help. Sometimes it just happens.
ReplyDeleteIt may happen to her one day.
Sounds like you need some of the humour from the Facebook page "Intelligent, classy, well-educated women who say "F*uck" a lot." :)
Oh, thank you all -- and yeah, f*uck 'em thoughtless, immature people ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm fine, it was just....one of those days, and now it's gone....
