Why do I have the feeling
Those lyrics are so true these days .... inside and outside DU. Why do people have to hurt each other? I just don't understand it.

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

And especially people
Who care about strangers
Who care about evil
And social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people be so heartless
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to give in
Easy to help out

And especially people
Who care about strangers
Who say they care about social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

10. Just saw your reply ... and answered.
How was your surgery? I'm not around here much anymore. Are you feeling up to all the excitement ahead?

14. I'm very tired.
I should get the oil changed in the truck but I keep putting it off until tomorrow.
I just checked the weather forecast along our route, I'll start packing until I feel up_to_going_out_in_the_world.

I'll be ready to rock_'n_roll by next Thursday. I'm getting the stitches out Wednesday morning.

16. That's to be expected.
Are you taking pain meds? They take a while to get out of your system.

You still have almost a week to get going. Do we get to see a pic of your new smile? :hug:

17. I'll take great smiling photos next Spring.

I'm a reconstruction job in progress until then.

I took pain meds on both Wednesdays. I hate the way I feel afterwords. Yucky for days.

18. OK, that's a deal.
So you had a pain med a few days ago? Might explain why you're still tired ... aside from the surgery. :hug:

23. I'm going back to bed.

:loveya: All this socializing is wearing me out.

One day of taking oxycodone was all I needed ... for the pain and to make me feel sick the next day. I'm also taking antibiotics which are hard on my body.

11. the hallmark of emotional maturity is taking responsibility for your own emotions
and realizing that no one can "make" a person feel any particular way.

cruelty is in the eye of the beholder: one person's cruelty is another person's brutal truth.

but where DU grudges are concerned, the principle of Occam's Razor applies spectacularly. and i won't say what the simplest explanation is.

12. I'm not taking part in the momentary DU crazyness
or at least I try to stay out of it. Not always possible though.

Of course I am responsible for my own feelings but if your feelings are hurt it isn't always easy to keep calm.
