Aye, ain't that the truth. Nothing is more guaranteed to turn your mind into a boiling, writhing nest of worms than Family Issues. I hope you're okay, KK. Give voice to them, if not here than somewhere. It doesn't solve, but it sometimes help (like a pressure valve).

Cheers,

Oh. I'm very sorry. I don't know what to say or do that'd help, though I desperately wish that I did. I...we offer the shoulders and support if you need it though.

Sincerely,

KK.

In a previous post you stated that there were some raw, open wounds, between you, your mother and sister. I also told you that no family is like The Brady Bunch.

I know that this is the Vent and Rant Thread. I have also got to the stage where I would like to hear the other side's story, and how they are feeling.
You can choose your friends, but you cannot choose your family. Try to deal with it like the adult that you are. Stop whining.

If this gets me knocked off of MR; so be it.

I have been reading threads on why I (and others) have left. So many of the pillars of MR are absent.

KK, If anyone tells you that their family is like The Brady Bunch, they are lying through their teeth. I learned to use 'The Dome of Silence', where I was pleasant, smiled a lot, and got the heck out of there as soon as possible. I also learned to not bad-mouth anyone, as it can come back in years to come and bite you on the bum. In other words *just be a spectator*, even when you feel like running amok with a hatchet.

You need a few days off to just be a 'female'. No rescuing, saving, bungy jumping, fishin' 'n huntin', attacking, mountain climbing or roughing it. Let go!

Lecture is over, and it's all meant sincerely.

Cheers


Have a nice day.

Actually, if you scroll back to KK's post, you'll see that SHE is not here. I hope "suspended" is a temporary thing; I'll miss her. But she does have intense opinions about things at times!

Geez, I twerk the watercooling on my workstation and everything goes to hell @ MR.

Heh, that's two rants in one.

Anyway, lesson learned this weekend: Don't try to be slick with a production machine, if epoxy takes 24 hours to dry then dammit, get the epoxy and wait out the 24 hours.

On the bright side, it was kind of nice to do all my reading, business, school, and MR-ing on the living room machine...might keep doing that even with the workstation back online, though the couch makes it quite difficult to find the motivation to go to work.

Watercooling? Overclocking, are we?

You could always try something a little more extreme: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...oject,731.html

KK - cuddle for your from me - and you can hug my cat. He's a bit smaller than your Stryder but lovely soft and silky fur :-)

Problems in family suck because you can't just walk away. Hope you get over the down feeling soon
