Contrast that with HK, where people keep straight up walking into me. No apologies or anything. Talked to local people about it and they say it happens to them too. Chinese people give zero fucks, I guess. But the crowds here can feel crushing in a very different way than in Tokyo or Seoul, for instance. 

 

Also: Doesn't seem like people kan be bothered to lift their umbrellas any higher than exactly my eye height either. I'm sure I'll go blind every time it rains.

Left a deposit of over $1,000 per dog, and that's the "low estimate." High estimates are more like $3,500. For what very likely could be a losing battle. And could affect two other dogs as well. My wife is distraught; she was sobbing at the animal hospital, and our 3-year-old daughter was also crying because her mommy was crying, as we got to hold our little dogs for what could be the last time, before leaving them in a cold animal hospital for the night.

acid I'm always the bigger man...he always tries to toss it in my face "oh go to the gym more" but it honestly wasn't about that it had nothing to do with who is stronger or who makes more money etc but he always tries to boil it down to those things...he was being very immature stormed in my room and yanked the sheets off my bed and threatened to break my sunglasses. I had to take command of the situation as i saw fit.

So I'm going to sounds like a whiney little bitch here. 

 

 

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

Its just starting to occur to me that I'm moving across the damned atlantic in seven days. I have seven days to hang out with my girl, who I've basically spent every non-working waking hour with for the last five years (granted thats like twenty hours a week). 

 
Its only now I realize that this won't be as easy as the last few times I've just fucked off for a year or two across a few thousand miles (I have a habit of doing this periodically) because of her. I'm not sure how well I'm going to handle it, especially given the extremely limited contact we'll have until we get internet set up and I get a phone that will work with skype over there. On top of this, she's never really gone it solo in terms of supporting herself and living alone, so I'll be worrying a lot about her (I've been supporting her financially and emotionally since she moved in five years ago). 
 
I know we'll be fine, I'm just feeling like this is going to be a major adjustment for me, and not in a good way. Oh well. I'll stop bitching now.

Same boat, but I'm the one leaving. Reykjavik. She's moving in next door to her sister in TN, and I live in NJ so I'll be here during the breaks, and its doubtful I'll have the money to visit her more than once a year. 

 

Best of luck to you re: shit roomy and absentee missus!

I think something is in the water here at work... too many stupid lazy people who should be on a soup line. So -- rather than keep it pent up driving myself crazy, I will share for your amusement.

A little background--- I am attorney in a mid-sized manhattan law firm.

The following is from my new associate that they hired -- without my input. She had temped here for six months and missed more days sick than I have had off (vaca or otherwise) in the last two years. One of the partners here made sure to cut me out of the process, as he knew my contempt for her. He thought he could "teach her." She has been hear nearly 8 mos and still cannot prepare the most basic of legal documents without significant revisions. He still insists she can learn.

Seems silly to come in to the office now only to come back to the East Side at 10:00 for my haircut so I’ll be working from home this morning accessible by cell and will be in around 11:00.

Really?

I am going to be in the same boat next year, pal. She's going to teach English in Cambodia for a year.

Is she attractive? I'm guessing the partner is teaching her how to "pierce the corporate veil."
