Gah!

I swear if one more person tells me any variation of "trust the Lord" OR "look on the bright side," I will punch them in the face.

You don't know this, but I cannot remember the last day when I woke up and thought, "Wow, I feel fantastic today." Pretty much every day is a differing variation of "How much pain can I deal with?" Every day I do my best to drag myself out of bed, put on a brave face, and go about life. So please don't tell me you know what it's like, or spout trite inspirational thoughts in the hopes that it will magically make my life better.

Being a good friend means you probably have put up with my venting, but you make my life brighter by taking my mind off how crappy I generally feel, but never by telling me that God has a plan for me, and that I just need to be patient. Seriously. That crap is ANNOYING.
