my mother did......

its nearly 90 out and shes STILL using the dryer!!!
But she will be the first to complain about her high electric bill and agree whole heartedly when I talk about green energy.... Nothing is greener than line drying!

today and generally speaking......

people who abuse and or misuse handicap parking.....

its just selfish to use for your own convenience what is genuinely needed by others......

apparently, it happens frequently because my client said she is going to write a form letter to leave on cars. And I have actually done this on client's behalf!

*deeeep breaths*

My Manager
 

She was sitting at her desk laughing hysterically and calls me over. She is watching a video that my supervisor and a couple co-workers made about a new program that our dept. is switching too. In the video they jokingly talk about how this program will save us on toner, paper, pens and paper clips. What pisses me off is that 3 people are also losing their jobs. Me being one of them.

It seemed insensitive to me.

People who aren't honest. You aren't much if you don't have integrity. I don't get it, just do the right thing!

This particular post applies to one of my peers and now a former friend.

people thinking sarcasm = meanie cruel bo beanies. this coast, I swear, sometimes, with one of the highest standards of living can be some of the most uptight wank-a-thons going... *hair pull*

I have a feeling they don't actually know what sarcasm is. A form of language that uses opposites, in an intelligent manner (one hopes...) to show humour in an absurdity. Like those fake-humourous news sites like the Onion. Or,say, Irony. Irony is a form of sarcasm.

"Irony is: Something that happens contrary to what is typically expected or appropriate. Can apply to language, as when someone sarcastically says something but means the opposite, such as: “Justin Bieber’s pants look great.”"

To be able to use sarcasm between friends etc, one has to be able to laugh at themselves and be able to have a high enough self esteem/self acceptance that self deprecating humour is also appreciated. For example, when I'm wearing a tin foil hat for bleaching my hair, and face cream, being told "wow. that's hot. all you need is clown pants and I'd ask you to bend over." by a mate. this is sarcasm. and its FUNNY.

And the killjoys that I run into with their putting tears on organic broccoli flowers to give to the flying yoga mat riding orca of positivity in this coast sometimes irritates the living shit out of me.

just because I can laugh at myself and make jokes about myself or take the piss (smart arse) my friends does not not make me cruel or have low self esteem. sheesh.

Irritated
 

I would rather say that I am disgruntled or irritated.

I have a project partner that works for a different company and today was the second time that he has called me to ask a question then when I try to respond he talks over me.

I am going to pull him aside and explain to him why that is rude and ask him to revise his behavior.

The car rental place......

I went there to finally get a car...(ive been without one for almost a week) and they dont have any....really?? I had a reservation and everything. So...the girl says come back after 3....Im getting some cars in from the city then....
Being that Ive been once bitten.....I called after 3.....yep....still nothing. Oh but she has something coming back in 30 minutes (mind you they close in an hour) and I told her jjust call me when (if) it comes in. Yeah. no call. So Im still carless...and they are only open 9am~ noon tomorrow...joy

Certain People on this Planet
 

Pissed,that I woke so early on my day off. However, it will only make my day longer!

Electronics! Need I say more?

not today specifically....but just generally....
 

people who exist in a "love bubble" when they are dating.....ignore their friends and family......and then look for an ear and a shoulder after the bubble bursts.....

well.....

I woke up at my regular time (6am) and was still tired...so I decided to go back to bed. I NEVER do this.....

well.....

first, the neighbors rooster starts crowing....badly at that....he's young yet....

then......

the neighbor is taking her obviously still tired kids ( I could tell by the shrieking and whining....) out somewhere. These are kids that only leave the house for school really. Today....of course....is the exception.

finally.....

someone on a motorcycle sits somewhere close by with the engine idling....

ok universe...Im up! this better be good.....

irritated and aggravated
 

Haven't decided if it's at this site or technology in general whichever is responsible for me not being able to change my status right now.....

Not worth anger so I am off for my nap and will be back later to change it hmpff

It sounds kind of trite, but I find the signs on the highway that say "Stay awake for safety sake" really irritating. Shouldn't it be "safety's sake?" Or "for the sake of safety?"

Or maybe the whole point is that they irritate you into staying awake. At least that's what happened to me today.

Nuttin' Honey. :rrose::cigar2::tarot:

My ex.... It was nothing more than just seeing her face and instead of someone I used to love I saw a face that I wanted to punch.... The fury inside me right now has left me shaking...
