Kinda make sense as my birthday is so close to the 24th. July 24th for southerners?

― Bryan (Bryan), Friday, 21 January 2005 08:44 (twenty-one years ago)

probably.... no christmas cheer for them either

OMG, they've come up with a FORMULA

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Friday, 21 January 2005 09:05 (twenty-one years ago)

I plan to be really happy on Monday, just coz.

Man, that'll be a perfect night to go to Stephin Merritt's DJ gig on Avenue C!

... if only I wasn't so worthless!

*sobs*

No, really I'm fine now. I hit bottom last week. It never seems so bad from the other side of it.

I have a phone interview with somebody, then I plan to go to the gym for the first time in, well, too long this coming Monday. I'm determined to fight the misery!

― donut christ (donut), Saturday, 22 January 2005 08:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Aw, Kenan, things have to look up for you now!

Over here, on Monday, the forecasted weather is for partly sunny skies with a low (in degrees F) of approximately 30 degrees and a high in the low 60s, so it'll be pleasant for us on Monday. Or at least as pleasant as Mondays can be.

(I think I should listen to Erasure all day, just to make sure it's extra-cheery. You know, because jel's got the right idea here.)

― Samantha Baker (Dee the Lurker), Saturday, 22 January 2005 08:51 (twenty-one years ago)

(And so does donut christ.)

We would like a photograph that represents how you felt on the day, email them to [email protected] with the subject line 'Misery'.

― Hari A$hur$t (Toaster), Saturday, 22 January 2005 10:16 (twenty-one years ago)

but that's my birthday, you miserable fucks!

― Seuss, Saturday, 22 January 2005 12:24 (twenty-one years ago)

"Morose birthday to you, morose birthday to you..."?

― Samantha Baker (Dee the Lurker), Saturday, 22 January 2005 23:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Seriously, join me in listening to exclusively jubilant and joyful pop tuneage on the 24th so you can fight off any and all bits of darkness that might pop up throughout the day!! That way it will be a beautiful, bright, sunshine-and-rainbows kinda day on your birthday!

― Samantha Baker (Dee the Lurker), Saturday, 22 January 2005 23:45 (twenty-one years ago)

we should all make sure that we have contingency plans for January 25th, as it probably stands a chance as being the SECOND most miserable day of the year, according to the scientists. Don't let your HAPPY HAPPY GUARD DOWN!

― donut christ (donut), Saturday, 22 January 2005 23:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, yeah, I know, I know, it all sounds too much like an overcaffeinated and overmedicated motivational speaker-type pep rally. I guess I couldn't help it; I mean, the point in all this is to make it to where the point that misery is supposed to be driven by minute details in an individual's own personal life versus any sort of far-reaching circumstances, none of which would be particularly catastrophic, that is supposed to dictate the mood of a vast array of humanity.

― Samantha Baker (Dee the Lurker), Sunday, 23 January 2005 00:01 (twenty-one years ago)

(Does that even make any sense at all?)

― Samantha Baker (Dee the Lurker), Sunday, 23 January 2005 00:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Thats odd. My girlfriend last year lost her father on that day.

― Adam Bruneau (oliver8bit), Sunday, 23 January 2005 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

mine wasnt so bad

― Reviewer: Sir Potomus (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews (ex machina), Monday, 24 January 2005 22:48 (twenty-one years ago)

I had a great day. FUCK SCIENCE!!!

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Monday, 24 January 2005 22:54 (twenty-one years ago)

6 out of ten for mine. Had a nice evening, even if work was a bit slow/unmotivating.

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 00:10 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm in a fucking bad mood rigght now.

― dog latin (dog latin), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 00:13 (twenty-one years ago)

so far so good. i did go back on my meds this weekend, tho.

― kingfish (Kingfish), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 00:22 (twenty-one years ago)

the day i get 'human after all' is no bad day.

― Hari A$hur$t (Toaster), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 00:24 (twenty-one years ago)

today has actually been a pretty good day for me.

― luna (luna.c), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 01:33 (twenty-one years ago)

ha! mine's been pretty shitty... woke up hungover, more fretting about the fact that i can't find a job.

― fauxhemian (fauxhemian), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 01:35 (twenty-one years ago)

well mine was shit and i've been in a great mood lately.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 12:18 (twenty-one years ago)

I had a worse Saturday, perversely.

― Miles Finch, Tuesday, 25 January 2005 12:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Yesterday was awful - en route from coming back from Italy, I somehow managed to pick up a stomach bug and consequently spent the entire day agonising in bed. I'm back at work today but not 100% better yet. What a way to see in one's you-know-what.

― Rachel Verinder, Tuesday, 25 January 2005 13:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Just wakin up in the mornin gotta thank God
I don't know but today seems kinda odd
No barkin from the dog, no smog
And momma cooked a breakfast with no hog (damn)
I got my grub on, but didn't pig out
Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out
(Whassup?) Hooked it up for later as I hit the do'
Thinkin will I live, another twenty-fo'
I gotta go cause I got me a drop top
And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop
Had to stop, at a red light
Lookin in my mirror and not a jacker in sight
And everything is alright
I got a beep from Kim, and she can fuck all night
Called up the homies and I'm askin y'all
Which park, are y'all playin basketball?
Get me on the court and I'm trouble
Last week fucked around and got a triple double
Freakin niggaz everyway like M.J.
I can't believe, yesterday was a good day (shit!)

[Verse Two]
Drove to the pad and hit the showers
Didn't even get no static from the cowards
Cause just the day before yesterday them fools tried to blast me
Saw the police and they rolled right past me
No flexin, didn't even look in a nigga's direction
as I ran the intersection
Went to $hort Dog's house, they was watchin Yo! MTV Raps
What's the haps on the craps?
Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em
Roll 'em in a circle of niggaz and watch me break 'em
with the seven, seven-eleven, seven-eleven
Seven even back do' Lil' Joe
I picked up the cash flow
Then we played bones, and I'm yellin domino
Plus nobody I know got killed in South Central L.A.
Yesterday was a good day (shit!)

[Verse Three]
Left my nigga's house paid (what)
Picked up a girl been tryin to fuck since the 12th grade
It's ironic, I had the brew she had the chronic
The Lakers beat the Supersonics
I felt on the big fat fanny
Pulled out the jammy, and killed the punanny
And my dick runs deep, so deep
So deep put her ass to sleep
Woke her up around one
She didn't hesitate, to call Mark C the top gun
Drove her to the pad and I'm coastin
Took another sip of the potion hit the three-wheel motion
I was glad everything had worked out
Dropped her ass off and then chirped out
Today was like one of those fly dreams
Didn't even see a berry flashin those high beams
No helicopter looking for a murder
Two in the mornin got the Fatburger
Even saw the lights of the Goodyear Blimp
And it read, "Mark C's a pimp" (yeah)
Drunk as hell but no throwin up
Half way home and my pager still blowin up
Yesterday I didn't even have to use my A.K.
I got to say it was a good day (shit!)

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 25 January 2005 13:08 (twenty-one years ago)

A guy I know in the pub last night told me to, "Cheer up, tomorrow's Burrrrrrrrrrrrns' Night". Funny, I thought he'd know better than to attempt a crap Scottish accent.
