The whine thread...

bexominglex

I need to complain, because I am irritable. So this is my thread of things I don't like at the moment. People say complaining is not good for you. I disagree. It's great therapy. Especially when you go back later and read your own stuff and laugh at yourself.

1. I have a headache from whacking my head (not seriously) against a wall about 30 hours ago. Also from not drinking or smoking.
2. I feel nauseated. And I want a cigarette. But I can't have a cigarette because then I will never quit...
3. Nothing good is on television. Why am I paying for cable?
4. I am tired but can't sleep.
5. Toddlers and Tiaras is a really creepy show and all the kids look like store mannequins but it's on TLC right now. How does anyone learn anything watching that show?
6. Feel really spaced out. Uck.
7. Am bruised up from falling down a few days ago. My own fault, but I am still going to whine about it.
8. My bird keeps plucking his feathers out. It's psychological and nothing I can do about it. He has been to an avian vet. He has a DVD to watch, his own cockatiel CD, a blanket, and a bunch of other expensive stuff. He is just simply miserable (he was abused before I adopted him, but I am getting him a buddy soon)
9. My button fern is dying. I have no idea why.
10. I am more or less broke for the next week.
11. I am either too hot or too cold. *shivers* Or both.
12. There are kids screaming outside right now. Which is making my head hurt worse.
13. I am sure I am miserable about something else but can't think of anything else.

Miserable scale for the day 2/10 What about you?

This thread is to be taken with a grain of salt.

Love that. I agree--I'm all about staying positive, but sometimes you just need to WHINE. Here's mine for the day: My favorite parakeet died on Sunday for no apparent reason, and my home feels empty without him. This caused me to go on a pizza binge last night, even though I am SUPER sensitive to gluten (definition of crazy). Now I'm both sad and have a severe stomachache. WHINE. :bigsmile:

I complain all the time, I have days where I wish I didn't, but my boyfriend even accepts that who I am and I probably will never stop complaining and whinging, especially when I'm tired

bexominglex

I am sorry about your parakeet. How many do you have? You said "favorite" so I am picturing about 500 of them flying around.

My sister is also sensitive to gluten. If I was, I wouldn't know as I have been drunk or sleeping for about the last... 12 or 13 years.

Whining can be a sign of being positive if you are half making fun of yourself. Which is what I am doing. I think it annoys people when they take themselves too seriously.

Those Hellion children have gone home. Good.

(I don't know about you guys, but happy children make me depressed when I am in a bad mood, especially when their parents let them scream bloody murder in a residential neighborhood- I saw a sign outside a restaurant awhile ago that I loved "Unattended children will be given free kittens and cappucinos"...)

bexominglex

I am sort of making fun of myself more than anything. I figured it would make people laugh. Usually when I am having a really bad day I am too self-absorbed to talk to anyone else.

Also, I agree that being positive is important, but I have to balance that positivity out...

I love your post, LOL

I'm miserable because I have to work out every day.
I'm miserable because I want to drink wine but can't because I'll gain more weight. I drank too much over the weekend.
I'm miserable because I think I gained a pound... uggg.
I'm miserbale because my weight loss is so darn S-L-O-W.
I'm miserable because I want Italian food but know I can't. Ohh hell no, LOL

I'm sure there are many other reasons why I'm miserable too. So lets all smile and enjoy life through our misery :flowerforyou:

Isn't it nice to vent!!!!??

val205

Here's my whine (hope it helps by getting it off my chest):
I'm tired;
I don't like my job;
I don't have enough money;
I'm not losing weight fast enough for my liking (I'm impatient);
I'm working really hard but only my hubby has noticed the results so far;
My kids are driving me nuts! I love them so much but man, are they NOISY.
There aren't enough hours in the day;
Why am I the one in this house of four that has to clean the toilets?

Now for a big deep breath and a moments peace. Thank you, I feel better already

This day cannot get any better for me! Want some?

It's snowing sideways and the temperature is going to get into single digits soon. I don't think I've ever experienced that in my life, but now I live in MN so I shall. And much, much colder.

I just had two, but the other one is a total dud, personality-wise. He just sits on his perch and stares blankly, and flies across the cage if a hand approaches. Or if you look at him. His name is Dr. Seuss because he's yellow and green and blue, but he does NOT live up to his name (whine). The one that died was a little blue guy named Shakespeare, and he was definitely a poet! He would sing me arias and have full conversations back and forth with a person, and he'd hop right up to you... very communicative, scary smart, funny little guy. We're thinking he died of old age? I only had him for 5 years but don't know how old he was when I got him. Well crap. Now I'm all sad again. Must... stop... typing... before I turn to another masochistic gluten binge... whine...

DWilbanks

was that you I kept haonking at earlier because you were going so slow? lol

bexominglex

Awww. I am sorry about Shakespeare. but Shakespeare wouldn't want you to go into a masochistic gluten binge, would he? He'd want you to honor his funky little memory by flying straight (no pun intended).

Cheer up bonnie! No mosquitoes or road construction in a Minnesota winter. :-)

Ah, the great northland.

My top pet peeves, because I try not to vent and be whiney.

1. People who say "You people..." because they are almost always being derogative.
2. Getting blamed for stuff that I have no control over.
3. People who don't help themselves, and get mad that I don't want to help them.
4. Cold weather. (Although I actually do like snow, when it's pretty and white)
5. City drivers.
6. Family drama over the holidays. Bummer.

Jewcybabe

Would you like some cheese to go with that whine.......? **smiles**

I think I'd rather deal with mosquitoes and road construction. Hate the cold!

Yes, please!

bexominglex

What sort of cheese? Because I don't like blue cheese.... *smiles innocently* And it has to be melted. Preferably melted over pasta or a pizza.

chauncyrenayCHANGED

LOL -

I am absolutely sick and tired of people CC'ing me on things that I truly do not care about.

bexominglex

CCing?

aquitania

Ok, this looks like a topic for me.

1. I'm miserable because it's almost 5 AM where i live and allthough i'm tired as hell, i still can't sleep.
2. i'm miserable because i heard my neighbours made love again (they do it every night) and my boyfriend is so far away, and i'll see him in december...
3. I'm miserable because i'm constantly making some errors on when i write, and it's because the computer is so far away from me, and then i can't really move my hands and fingers the way i should, but i can't move the computer closer because then i don't see the screen the way i should.
4. I'm miserable because i downloaded one music album illegaly from the internet and now i have a bunch of attorneys on my neck who all want money from me, and that's the one thing i don't really have, and that is more or less the reason why i'm tired and can't sleep...
5. I'm miserable because i have a really big audition on monday, and somehow don't give a damn about it...
6. I'm miserable because i left my bike at the school and i'll have to walk to school tomorrow.
7. I'm miserable because i won't really get any sleep and i'll be dead tired tomorrow.
8. I'm miserable because it's possible that i won't be able to vote on our government elections.
9. I'm miserable because i just simply don't know how my future is going to look like.
10. I'm miserable because i live in one room (in a dorm) and have to share the kitchen and the toilets and the bathroom, it's really driving me crazy.
11. I'm miserable because of a lot of other things, but am just too tired to list them.

But, i do feel a bit better now, and i really hope i'll fall asleep in the next hour.

Thank you for your time, ladies and gentlemen.
