i do have sympathy for people that have let rejection get the better of them. Keep in mind there are men and women both who are dealing with that and wallow in self pity. But i dont know any other way for them besides learning to face those fears continually

It depends on how they handle it. If they decide they hate women and blame everyone else, I have no sympathy for them. If they look at themselves but don't know how to change or get help or feel hopeless, then I have sympathy. If they're going through any kind of mental illness, that's a whole other issue but I basically have the same response. There's no excuse to hate and blame others, but people can genuinely lose hope even though they acknowledge they have the problem.

There's a fucking waterbug in my room and my mother doesn't understand I'm fearful as fuck of those things flying around. I am now sleeping in the living room. I do not know if I will return despite the fact I must go back to get clothes for work

When you Google "persian kabob" and then you find out there's a Kabab spot down the street.

I never really seen it from women, yet alone have them shoot up a place because of it. What I have seen is women get incredibly bitter, and it's not really from rejection but from a lot of bad experiences from men, whether it's every one of their boyfriends cheating on them, only ever being the side chick, or constantly getting dumped.

Mornin' everyone.

Good morning all.

Are any of you familiar with bullet journals? I'm thinking of using a notepad/journal to start tracking tasks.
Click to expand...

Yes, I use a system I created to keep track of big projects and event tasks. I don't use apps due to lack of encryption amongst most. But thats because I require the maximum level of privacy and security with what I do. Are you looking for an app for simple task tracking?

Yea I would be down for an app as well to help me track tasks. Currently I just overwhlem my ical and outlook calendar with task reminders but that is not a good system.

Ideally I thought getting a physical journal might help more since it allows me to put in notes and capture thoughts during meetings. So I might want to look into both a journal system and an app to see what works best.

I keep a leather notebook/journal and it's done a great job for me helping me stay on top of things. I jot down dates times and locations but also just key bits of info about stuff as a refresher too if needed.

Maybe this can help sort things better for you.

For a physical journal check out this community https://plus.google.com/communities/109117749342179166498 these folks take organization to a whole'nother level

For an app theres http://noteplan.co/ (Iphone only), https://www.samepage.io/collaboration-app and Evernote.
I've used Evernote until I created my own task system.

I use https://www.samepage.io/collaboration-app to update some clients digitally with their worked on projects for tasks I finish, until I complete the coding for my own GiS.

It's never safe until you find it, now you're being watched until you least expect it.

There's a place down the street that does fantastic kebabs

I think the store might be a front for money laundering though.

That's good.

Doner kebabs are my jam but those are damn good as well. Adana kebab in is extremely well. Just need to find a place that makes them without giving a fuck about "white spice" levels.
