I'm not angry. I'm just disappointed. For two weeks now, my best friend hadn't wanted to hang out even though we see each other everyday at the place where I live. Every time I go to ask him if he wants to play cards or loteria (games that we enjoy), he says no. He just stopped wanting to hang out out of the blue one day. I'm at a loss as to what caused it.

I'm sorry this has happened to you and hope you can maybe talk to him about it and get it resolved. This has happened to me before too and it's not very nice to be on the receiving end.

You have my empathy here, mcpon. It can be frustrating to watch our friends change overnight and never bother to wonder how that might affect those who care about them. Of course, some folks seem to prefer that no one care about them (or at least they pretend to such). I wish it weren't so, but the sad truth is that we are imperfect, and sometimes trying to understand just makes stuff worse.

And that's a shame.

Well, we hung out last night, so I'm glad for that but thanks for the empathy.

I hope the friendship is back on track.

I'm not really angry, but I suspect I soon will be.

I have a strange neighbour. They moved in this past summer, and the guy seems to want to "fix" things up all the time. The houses are somewhat fixed up between tenants, but this guy didn't like the lock, so he removed the nob and lock and replaced with one of the long ones that you use your thumb to unlatch instead of a nob you turn. But instead of putting it on properly, he put it like this / then in the back yard....satellite dishes. Three of them. And an antenna. All nailed to the wooden fence between our yards. He's going to pull the freaking thing down. And the landlord will not replace it.

Today, in the rain, he is putting up....something.....on a stick. He's got this weird space-ship shaped thing, which I assume is for gaming, and it looks like it should not be out in weather. It is kind of stuck onto a 2x4, which he screws into the fence. Then he goes in his house. Then he comes out, and moves it elsewhere on the fence. Constant for the last two hours. Screwed into the fence at least 8 times. The fence is old wood.

Weird neighbour.

Provoked as I slipped on the last melting ice on back steps and shattered my left ankle, then was taken to a hospital where two loved ones and I were badly treated. Luckily they have reformed here and not a sledgehammer or nail in sight.
Ouch! - take care of that ankle - hope you can get around on crutches or something. Healing vibes, CoriSCapnSkip

.......tomorrow is Monday........now if I was living with Flake, I would've been angry yesterday.......but then if I was crashing on her couch unannounced, she'd be angry too.....

:laugh: But when would she be angry, at what time? I am confused. The day after?
Will you actually show up at her time? Maybe you would just go in and out, and it would be the same time - and the world spinned? I am confused.
