Please don't read if you dislike adult whining
Sep 19^th, 2010 at 8:58pm

I know I don't have it that bad, but I am in a whining mood. Just got off prednizone and having a long day of back to back to back hits...... thanks to caffeine, taurine and maxalt, they aren't high on the kip scale but I am just in need to vent (YES, vent is Frammy for whine).

I just passed another kidney stone this week and now the headaches are ramping up a bit (still not the worst).

Anyway, caffeine+maxalt makes me feel very anxious, so although the pain isn't as bad as usual, I am very nervous.

All this and my wife has had to pick up the slack and that makes me feel so bad.........

Well, it was nice to get that off my chest......... time to end the whine, bathe the kids, brush their teeth, put them to bed........ and hope I can sleep.

Thanks for reading!

It's the nature of the beast within and our balls to deal with it head on. From time to time we NEED to vent to allow ourselves to regroup and battle on. It's the deep inhale to muster forward in the fight. We got your back...vent all you need to.

Thanks folks. There is something very comforting about be able to whine, get a little support, and (hopefully) move forward.

I can not stand the side effects of the meds I have been on for both the stone and the headaches. I can barely sleep even when the pain is temporarily neutralized.

OK, the whine is now really over. Thank you for your kind words! It is always nice to get a little extra support. I just wish my wife didn't have to deal with this. She is the real victim.

My friend, there is a big difference between whining, which is a continual complaining about circumstances and venting once in a great while about a circumstance you need to get off your chest. Trust me, if you start whining you will get your butt kicked by this crowd. When you vent you get our support and prayers. Vent when needed. You are not one to whine.

Hang in there my brother and vent as much as you need.

From one Eric to another,

Venting is my outlet of choice. I enjoy burning the ears of all that will listen. My rants and vents tend to be a little more colorful at times.

All pressures must have an outlet, hydraulic, pneumatic, heat, cold, and clusters. It's a state law I swear to god it is. Anyway, Have fun venting, I know I do.

Eric
