Disgruntled
 

My "new to me" fridge is not working correctly. I checked and the temperature inside the fridge was 68 degrees. Ugh I just cooked a bunch of food. I am throwing everything in the freezer and hoping for the best. What a pain!

Called my guy he should be here tomorrow.

:worried:

This could be the heater for the fridge. It maybe cheaper to buy a new fridge.

Good luck with this

Thanks Teddybear, I bought the fridge from "my guy" and he gave me a year warranty so I think that he will cover it but not my food. That part stings.

Sorry about that Chad.

Pissed
 

This guy on my rideshare vehicle gets on my last nerve. Today again his chosen behavior was so gross that I actually had to restrain myself from reacting.

I will spare the good people on this site by not sharing his disgusting behavior. I will just say that if my mom witnessed this disgusting behavior I would not restrain myself.


:explode:

With all the attention being spotlighted to bad behaviors by males, you'd think this jack ass would know better! Perhaps someone should remind him of that!

Drivers not paying attention

I'm pissed off because, ironically, straight society seems to be seriously into Butch/femme!
Shopping for tops or jackets. The choices appear to be
- femme - we've got you covered! (well, given that an awful lot of what they have for sale is gauzy, maybe that's not quite the right word, but YKWIM! :-} )
- active - lumberjack shirts for you, m'dears, if you're not going to wear branded 'training gear'!
- older - you'll buy whatever we can be bothered to stock in weird colours , shades-of-sick trim/decoration, weird shapes and sizes, and completely unsuitable material, and like it, frump!

Gah. I want something that covers me, is reasonably robust, and has a tasteful splash of colour. I'm quite partial to a certain type of Japanese art that, with a few brushstrokes can capture bamboo against the moon, or a branch of cherry-blossom - or oriental dragons. So maybe a midnight blue soft jacket I can wear over my otherwise all-black clothing, or a black tanktop with a bit of colour on the front to go with black jacket and jeans.

But no - if it kinda looks like what I'm after in a top, it'll be gauzy and of a material that'll make me sweat like a wossname, absolutely require a bra be worn lest you show yourself off to the world, and , well, be just too durned girly for me nowadays, and it'll need to be treated carefully. I wasn't great at that even when I was femme. Couldn't find a colourful jacket anything like what I'm after, though I saw a woman wearing something close a few weeks ago. And don't get me started on inconsistent jeans sizing and how hard it is to find anything other than 'skinny' jeans...

Much as I love clothes, I hate clothes shopping these days. I wish I could afford to have stuff made for me.

What you need is a sewing machine, provided you know how to sew..... or find yourself a local seamstress and hire her for sewing or tailoring services!

But I know what you mean about not finding clothes that will fit you right or those types of things, regardless of gender.

I couldn't find clothes to fit my son's, or shoes (!), when they were growing up. Sometimes it's hard to find clothes you like and especially at a good price or at a good bargain price.

but.... look into finding a local seamstress, is what I would suggest. Maybe you could find someone who would consider bartering in exchange for sevices, to lessen your financial expenses. For example, buy your material and sewing notions and then maybe this could help in reducing expenses. Then you could barter some of the cost by doing something for them that would be of equitable rate of exchange of services?

Thanks, Katzchen, but I'm waaaaay ahead of you on this. Suffice to say I can't make my own clothes (have tried), and getting 'em made isn't a viable option bar once in a blue moon. (And my best friend is an excellent seamstress - and lives halfway across the country. Sigh...)

I'm particularly annoyed at how godawful the clothes aimed at older women are. It's like the manufacturers are trying to have a laugh at older womens expense (quite literally).

I would say my concern would be for the ladies and young girls who are working in sweatshop conditions for pennies per hour.

My heart goes out to them first.

Being pressured by my lesbian friends to go hang out with them. Im.tired of being a third wheel or whatever they call it these days. They just need to start dating and leave me out of it.

We need a fix!
 

I just had it out with my primary doctor and told him that his "experiment" on me was over. It felt good to say BYE BYE to him. Thankfully, there's an awesome female doctor at my primary clinic. I'll be seeing her from here on out.

Your post made me think of "The Rash" episode of Seinfeld with Elaine! Now there is going to be a file on you! :|

i am glad to hear it... I'm just so disappointed on many levels all around ...

LMAO, true story! :|

That Seinfeld episode came to mind too. However, I lodged a complaint with my health insurance provider BEFORE my final appt with said doctor. Even the charge nurse agreed with my assessment of said doctor. And, my presiding doctor agreed with my evaluation too. I'm super glad to not have the offending doctor sitting on my case anymore.


(((((( dee )))))) I hear you, big time!

nothing so far but the day isn't over yet.
