It's the weekend, it's pretty decent weather and I finished work after about 45 minutes.

That sucks. Condolences on the job. Is that a public radio thing (like budget), a radio in general thing, or just something sucky falling down on you?

It was a budget thing for sure. The only remaining positions are either on-air folks or grant funded reporters. THey aren't very good at managing money, I'm afraid. Its pretty much par for the course in radio though. Gotta have the resume ready constantly.

No way. People are wonderful. Case in point: http://www.cbc.ca/ne...vigil-1.3146036

People are wonderful to animals. Other people? Not always...

Not you too, Tiste Simeon! I mean you're right. And you've seen/heard horrors in your line of work recently and in general. World-weariness is to be expected. But to grow too cynical is to side with the devaluers of life.

Haven't been around for a while. Getting divorced and was laid off from my job. I miss you guys. THinking of this group made me smile. Then I thought about how much I fart and was also wondering if you all fart a lot too.

Gettin divorced wasn't the most fun I ever had. If you want to rant to someone who has no connection to your life, but can understand what you're going through, send me a pm

Hah. I was just venting a bit as I'd spent most of the day at a scene of a horrible rape (not the 9 year old). I also see tons of the best parts of humanity. It was late when I wrote that & it came over a lot darker then I intended. Life is good!

Flying Legends Airshow at Duxford today is making me happy.

I thought I'd felt a disturbance in the (police) Force.

Charcuterie Platters. Have had four of these in the last week and each was better than the last. Gods bless fancy meats cheeses and pickles, especially with craft beer.

Had a wonderful long weekend up in Brisbane with my friends than caught up with Somby this evening as he is down my way. Yay friends!

Been raining all day, which means a day of much needed respite from the hayfever. Last week was HELL.

Also, only an hour left at work for today

I don't suppose any medicine works for your hayfever?

I have dust and pollen allergy which eats most antihistamines for breakfast. Season change is like a firing squad for me

Pretty much. I'm allergic to pollen of pretty much any kind by now (and as a consequence of not getting proper treatment - see below - also to a bunch of fruit and veggies), it seems, but I do not know for sure because the only doctor specializing in allergies in my area refused to test me (no kidding), but without the test I cannot prove it and thus can't get the medications that needs a prescription, but is - supposedly - better than the stuff I can get at the pharmacy without prescription.

I used to only be allergic to tree pollen, had treatment for that and it got better. Then, last year, I noticed that I was STILL reacting after the trees were done blooming. So I went to the doc and asked to get tested anew, but got told they wouldn't do that because my last test had been two years ago and obviously, nothing is likely to have changed (yeah, right), so I'm probably just imagining and please come back when your yearly expensive as hell anti-tree pollen shots are due.
Right, so THIS year I am - not-too-surpisingly - reacting to at the very least all kinds of grass pollen as well and have no access to treatment because apparently I'm 'imagining' that. Since roughly halfway through April, I have slept maybe five nights without waking up upwards from four times due to either violent sneezing or getting no air. I'm just glad the whole mess had the courtesy to wait until I graduated. I started sneezing the next day. But I must be imagining the blood coming out of my nose and the sore throat due to only being able to breathe through my mouth for hours at a time

My calendar tells me this may continue well into August. At which point I already have an appointment with another doctor further away, but hopefully more concerned with her patients and less with money. At the very least I can finally get tested again.
