I woke up this morning about 6 and had this weighty feeling in my chest and stomach. You know that feeling you get when your gf of 2 years just slept with your best friend? Yeah, that feeling. Problem is, I can’t seem to figure out where it’s coming from. It’s always in response to something really severe, but nothing bad has happened recently. Except for getting stood up on Tuesday, life has been great. Also, the physical feeling is usually accompanied by a slight depression. I’ve never gotten really depressed, just a little sad. But, I don’t feel bad mentally at all. I’ve been joking with my coworkers all morning and laughing at some of the posts. In all of my reasoning, I can’t come up with a single reason to feel this way. I thought about a possible heart condition, but it didn’t pan out. Physically I’m fine, but somethings screwed up in my head. I was hoping that by typing this up it would go away, but it hasn’t worked. Maybe it’s just a crappy monday. The weather is pretty shitty right now, so maybe that’s it.
My guess is Mondays just plain suck…
I’m in a heck of a mood…one of those don’t bitch at me or I’ll kill ya moods…well, not really but yeah!
We need to just stack the week one day on, one day off…that would be so much better 
-SS
yeah, monday’s suck…
you wanna collect on that drink i owe you?
All too well I’m afraid.
I also seem to have a not-quite-right feeling today. But mine is more of an impending doom on the horizon than a personal crisis.
I cast my vote for a sucky Monday - I woke up at 2:30 AM and wasn’t able to fall back to sleep… it’s gonna be a LONG sucky Monday here…
<deep sad sigh>
Yep, I know the Mondaysuck feeling. How’s the weather by you? That tends to get to me…especially on Monday.
I caught you…you’re skipping class!!!

Hate to say it, but save reading the Jerry Springer post and getting into a funk about it, I’m having a great monday. It’s like 68 degrees, (read: perfect), and the day is just flying by. I’m really busy today, for the most part (I still have time to post… 
), and I’m just having a good monday.
Here… <starts passing out his good monday feelings to everyone…>
Everyone should have some o’ this.
<extra helping for Aglarond>
Hmmm Aglarond, that’s how I feel every weekday morning. You’re lucky it’s only today!
Ahh, it was a nice weekend though…
Our weather is pretty shitty today too. It’s really foggy and it’s been raining/drizzling for the last 2 days now. A good day to stay home and in bed.
I just wish I could work 9-4 on Mondays and 8-4 the rest of the week. Just that extra hour of sleep would help out immensely.
I was just thinking that this morning as I was pulling out of the driveway. Mondays suck like an armada of Hoover vacuums. (I know…bad metaphor, but it’s the best I can come up with on a Monday morning, OK?)
On the drive into Portland on Hwy 26, I came up with the two main reasons why Mondays suck so much.
-
The weekend is over. Ouch, ouch, ouch. 48 hours is simply not enough to recover from the previous work week.
-
I’ve got 10 commuting trips ahead of me before the next weekend (2 per day). :::sigh::: I hate commuting; I think it is a dreadful waste of time (although if I didn’t have a nice CD stereo, I would have lost my mind by now). If I found a job in the suburb where I live, I’d take it in a heartbeat… However, my job isn’t really the kind that is suited for telecommuting.

Mondays simply suck. The grass grows, the wind blows, and Mondays simply suck. It just is.
well… just my 11am one… i can’t skip my 12pm architecture class.
The weather sucks right now, but I’m looking out my window and it looks like the sun’s trying to sneak a peak. I just checked with my boss, and he hasn’t noticed that I’ve been acting strange. So I just came back to my office and shut the door. Now I’m getting looks through my little window like thingy because I rarely shut my door. I guess they’re starting to notice something’s a little off.
Sky, you’re probably right. I’ve always hated mondays. I like your one day off, one day on idea. I, personally was a big proponent of the one day on, two days off plan. My boss didn’t go for it, though.
Palmyra, yes, but bad, bad, Palmyra. You shouldn’t skip class. It’s bad for you. You want Santa to bring you presents, right?
Xixor, sucks, don’t it? Not my last gf, but the one before that slept with 3 of my friends after we dated for almost 2 years. What made it worse was they were getting some and I wasn’t.
FCM, I had trouble sleeping last night, too. No idea why. I kept waking up within about 5 minutes of every hour. And each time I had to supress the urge to check out the DFW doper thread. My will proved strong.
Anyway, thanks for all the support guys. I needed it.
I can relate to that…
What pisses me off, is that I was respecting the fact that she was a “virgin” and refused to have sex with her. Until the very end I honestly believed she was a virgin…thats what she had told me all along. She broke up with me stating that “God told her to do so.”
It wasn’t until about 6 months later that I found out the truth…I was devestated, but I got over it…once I learned why she really broke it off. 
To be honest I haven’t had a steady girlfriend since…that was February of 98’
I date…I just haven’t found the right one yet…
Time…it takes and it gives…it’ll even out at some point.

Same thing. She told me she was a virgin, so I respected that. I felt really betrayed. She never blamed it on God, though. And, coincidentally enough, this took place in January of '98. Bad year, huh?
Anyway, I just took a couple laps around the building and got my heart pumping a bit. I feel a little better now, but that feeling is still there. I’m even having trouble eating. I assume it’ll pass.
Hey, Ag, I know what your trouble is. You are feeling guilty that you didn’t bring enough money and couldn’t buy me a beer on Saturday, and now I’m not going to like you.
It’s ok, I know you’ll come through next time. Don’t worry about it.

I’m having trouble coming up with a reply that doesn’t sound sarcastic. 
They haven’t been sarcastic, but they seem to come across as such.
I will get you beer. Oh yes. You will have a beer.
Mondays are a terrible way to spend one seventh of your life…
Speakin o’ beers…why dont we all join forces somewhere tonight for a mug o’ brew…
I can think of a few decent places near where we were last night, just depends on what everyone’s doing, that, and I owe the whole crew a drink!

Normally I’d be watching football, but tonight’s games shows to be one of the most boring games this season. I’m game. Just set a time and place.
