Greetings from the beach, where we're currently being treated to a thunderstorm.

Yay for Friday.  Decided I'm going to see the Mighty Mighty Bosstones tomorrow.  Saw them back in 2002 and had a good time, they are playing their entire Lets Face It album to celebrate 20 years.  I just watched the scene with them playing in the background from Clueless.  Classic.

Hey guys.

Hey king, I saw the new Planet of the Apes last night. Have you watched the newer ones?

I've watched the first 2 and they were so well done.  Never saw them in the theaters but on HBO.  How is this one compared to the other 2?

Definitely as good, if not even better imo. A lot more of the ape stuff. For me it's the strongest trilogy since probably LOTR.

"Yes you've finally made a monkey out of meeeeeeeee!"

I knew that long before I ever saw the original movies. Still a classic. :lol

What can I say? I love apes! :blob: And if they're conquering humans, even better!

Morning coffee and a book by the pool.... Not a bad way to kick off 41!

Topically, the book is about staph (yes, I'm a nerd)... Fortunately, what Chino has been dealing with is much less bad than what I'm reading about (MRSA), but it's still nothing to fuck with.  Glad you're okay!!

Blob, how's the Trek animation going?  Also, how long are you making this one?

I've barely worked on it a few weeks, but I've been slowly chipping away on it the past couple of days. It's at over 2:30 minutes, so the finished video will be at least 3 minutes. I don't want to do a video this long ever again. :lol

Imagine a Pixar movie!!

A whole building of Blobs working on different sections of the movie.

If it was me, it would be more like "A whole building of Blobs doing nothing" :lol

On the upside, we'd absorb the world's scifi at a record rate.

What a collective of Blob share a single, connected mind?

A Blorg perhaps?

The Blorg only assimilates only certain knowledge it cares for, hit's up different outposts for energy drinks, has weird sleeping patterns and downloads porn from many galaxies.

Okay guys. So shit is hitting the fan once again at home. This fucking relationship of mine has been up and down for 6 damn years. It looks like this may be the end of it. And I don't want to say I don't give a shit, but it's becoming harder and harder to.

We had plans to go out of town on Wed/Thurs. Hotel room booked. It was supposed to be our first time going out of town in years that didn't involve her work or family obligations.

Turned to shit. No one wound up going anywhere. She ate the cost of the hotel room. Grew into a huge shitstorm of shit.

I'm not even as angry or depressed as I normally would be. Just... Apathetic.

I wouldn't touch energy drinks. They'd make my lazy heart explode. :lol
But I cannot deny the rest. I don't care if the women are human, Vulcan, Romulan, Orion, Andorian, Bajoran, I don't discriminate. Except the Kllingon women. Let's just say they have ridges in all the wrong places.

We are the Blorg. Resistance is futile. It also requires a lot of work. Work is futile.

My x and I had similar situations.

Essentially, I would love to try and plan a weekend getaway, or a day or activities.  Something fun to do together away from the home.  It became a pattern when everytime we'd do something, we'd erupt into a fight and the day ruined.  Eventually I stopped planning things because it felt like a waste of money and the expectation of a fight.  It eventually became clear that's no way to live life.

It's such a night and day scenario from my x and my current gf.  We've been dating for over a year now and still have not had a single fight, argument, or raised voices at each other.  I can't imagine going back to such a relationship of fighting and disaster after disaster.

What really gets me is it feels as if things were starting to go well. But apparently I was mistaken. During our fight over the last 2 days, something came up  (moneywise) and I mentioned that I did whatever it was and didn't care because we are a couple and are a team. She comes back with "we haven't been a couple in years." - That hurts, as yea, we've had a lot of issues, but again I thought things were getting better.

Funny enough, she doesn't want me to move out, she just wants to separate ourselves from each other emotionally and financially, but keep me as a roommate. Don't know how long that will fly.

cramx3

It won't work I can almost guarantee you and I think you know that too, and I can say again, that the "I thought things were getting better" was a feeling I constantly had or thought I had. 

King Postwhore

Don't.  Get the hell out right away.  She's already pulled away and you need to get out of that situation.

Getting out takes Money. And a Car. And somewhere to go.

You aren't the first person to tell me this.

Funny enough, when this all went down, I went out to eat with my best friend. He had mentioned that he and his girlfriend were looking for an apartment (they currently live with Her mother). I mentioned that It would be cheaper for them to get something 2 bedroom and split it 3 ways with me. He literally laughed and said "You're funny."
