I am so fucking tired. I'm doing freelance work for a friend of mine and he's pissing me off. My wife is pissing me off. I don't know if I love her anymore or not. I am ready to die, if for no other reason than I don't want to have to work anymore. Ever. I don't want to think anymore. Ever. As long as I am awake I am fucking miserable. In fact it's not even 8pm here and I think I'm going to bed. I just wish I never had to get up again.
Posted by anonymous at February 15, 2008 5:52 PMI know how you feel, other than the wife part. Sometimes I wish I would drop dead just so I don't have to go to work ever, ever again. Or I'll wish that my back problems would get just bad enough so that I could retire on disability, but of course, that would be an economic disaster for me, not to mention that I really want less pain, not more. It used to be that just taking a few days off would refresh me, but not any more. I don't want to work, I don't want to get up in the morning, but I have to. Somewhere up the food chain in my company, someone is making a ton of money while not paying me nearly enough and working me to the point of exhaustion.
The one difference between us is that I have a wonderful, loving, devoted and fun husband (AKA Mr. Ig) whom I absolutely adore, and he adores me. We are soulmates; we've been together for going on 12 years, and we just love each other more every day. Being together is the greatest fun!
So, maybe examining your marriage is the key to your happiness, or lack thereof. See if marriage counseling will help; if the two of you are simply not right for each other, maybe that's a stress you don't need in your life. But go into it looking for the happy ending; if you can reconnect with your wife, then you will have that bright spot in your life that makes that life worth struggling through.

Posted by: at February 16, 2008 6:42 AMHave you ever considered changing your diet? Try subsisting entirely on a mixture of your own and your wife's faeces for one week, and then let us know how things are going.
I'm sure whoever wrote the entry to which the previous responses are directed, is very pissed off at the happy go lucky people that have "such a great marriage" or "such a fabulous diet." Marriage counseling? no shit! diet?? DUH! the writer of this entry is perfectly aware of all of the options, and I'm sure is quite sick of people shoving the same ideas in his head. This shit is tough! LIFE! and it is perfectly normal to get pissed off every now and then. And when EVERYTHING succks, yo ugotta find one thing that either makes you happy, or takes your mind off of the shitty aspects of life - once you find it, stick with it for as long as possible.
