My allergies are acting up and my nose is raw from being blown so much. And I can barely hear from everything being stuffy one hour and the next my nose is gushing. Feels like my period moved from crotch to face.

The dollar store was out of dried plums and they're almost 4 bucks a drat bag at the grocery store.

I went out yesterday and ate a bunch of lovely fast food and my body feels like crap now.

I can't decide on a Halloween costume and I've already spent $20 on one and $20 on another and I still want to buy my alien facehugger.

The fish I really want to buy won't do good in my water.

The other fish I want to buy are marine and I can't justify setting up a single marine tank with all the costs.

I really really like a new song on the radio but the CD comes out in almost a month and a half and they rarely play the song.

For the marine, I would need salt and live rock and the brittle stars I saw yesterday at $20 each, and a hydrometer, and some specialized lighting for coralline algae, and powerheads and a protein skimmer and....

I am realizing that half the poo poo I plan to buy for my mom for Xmas she still has from last year's Xmas. Lots of candles (she specified the ones she wanted and I got those) and little jewelry things. She has plenty of both. Our house is full of little pretty things. I need to get her something practical but I already got her a camera, a Nook, and she might get a new computer between now and Xmas. We'll see.

Along that line the spiderwebs I put up for Halloween blew up on the roof with the loving wind.

One of my fish tanks blocks half my dresser so all my socks and underwear are on the floor.

We're out of broccoli.

I need to get mouse food but I either have to drive to a lovely part of town under construction or just go to Walmart.

Am out of my favorite lotion.

I remember some boxers I saw years ago where the decor was red foil ants, and I wanted them but didn't get them and now I can't find them anywhere.

I just finished rereading old rpg logs from a play a friend and I have had going for a year now and want to read more, but she hasn't been online in over a month and the only time she did contact me wasn't to play or even say where she had been, but that she got a new puppy that was six years old (really? a puppy?) and isn't housebroken yet.

The other person I rp with isn't nearly as good and she's in love with the My Little Pony poo poo and keeps wanting me to watch it with her.

My hand truck/dolly at work broke and it was the best one in the store and I might have to wait a week for a new one.

The lotion I just opened smells funny.

I'm almost done watching DBZ Abridged and it's loving hilarious. And then I realize I could get the DVDs and watch them but....those would be the real episodes and not anywhere as funny.

My second-best rp friend is irritated that I haven't been online lately, but she works the graveyard shift and I work standard hours, so I'm on in the evenings when she is playing WoW but is too busy to play then. She wants to play when she's at work but I'm too tired then.

I got most of the day off work today and spent almost all of it online.

I'm trying to sell some fish and the buyer won't get back to me.

I wore my awesome zombie shirt today and no one noticed.

At the pet store there is an animal rescue and my mom talked with one of the ladies who run it, and the lady kept bitching because no one would adopt a Siamese kitten priced at $150 because he is a Siamese kitten.

I got off work early today super psyched to redo a fish tank for new fish coming in tomorrow. But now they won't be. But that is kinda good because I didn't want them anyway but I suspect I would have once I had them in my hands.

Dinner might be steak and mushrooms tonight but my mom didn't email me back to let me know if she wants me to start dinner or if we're saving the steak and mushrooms for later in the week.

The new vampire crabs I have all hide.

I finally got through to the pet store who has been bugging me nonstop for sand boa babies. Only to be told they bought some from another breeder. The reptile manager kept bugging me for MONTHS and then was off work for two weeks and the day he came back they bought several from another breeder.

Oh, and my other sand boa female dropped 16 new babies and all of them are orange. Better than brown, but the purple ones go for bank.

I lost interest in the one rp game I have going on because the other player was busy watching (watching, not attending) streams of Blizzcon all weekend and the urge to play is gone. I don't want to tell the other player though because it'll hurt her feelings.

I am so freaking bored after work even though I need to clean cages and do other poo poo with the animals, but I'd rather sit at the computer and read over quickmeme.

I spent $45 on my Weyland-Yutani Tshirt and a plush facehugger for Halloween and no one gets the shirt and apparently everyone thinks the facehugger is a spider.

It was cool last week and today is nearly 90 again so my grim reaper costume is too hot. So is my gas mask costume.

My mom constantly wants me to see this Cute Cat or Dog picture on craigslist or tells me about random fish people are getting rid of all over the drat city. Annoying. But to ice that there are two large fans going at once so I can't hear everything she says, so I have to get up and go to her computer to have her repeat it. Same as when I'm in the bathroom.

She is hooked on Monsterville or Monster Farm or whatever the gently caress it is to the point she sets a loving alarm to make sure she harvests poo poo on time. She also requests things to me via Facebook and gets mad if I don't send the item somehow right away.

I don't know why this still bothers me but last year one of the kids I babysit for wanted something pink for Christmas, but he specified no princess things because he is a boy. So I got him Barbie Walkie Talkies. He loved them, his sister loved them, Mom hated them and at one point chewed me out for sending her kids dollar store crap for Xmas.

Last Sunday my mom asked me what I am doing on Monday, my day off. When I said nothing, she said great, you can take the cat to the vet. I was able to get in on Monday and got to deal with my mom's stupid Bengal cat who doesn't like to be touched, and paid almost $300 for her ear mite treatment.

Today my mom asked me what I am doing tomorrow. When I said nothing, she said great, you can take the other cat to the vet, because she is sneezing! At this point I am ready to remind her she is the one who has brought all the drat cats home, lets one of them outside all the time, where he meets with the feral cats, and then he comes back inside spreading whatever poo poo they've got.

I don't get paid till next week, have no cash to my name, and I fear next Sunday I will get the same question.

Also, McDonald's was out of the holiday pies I wanted.

The girl I've been emailing about my sand boa babies is now taking her sweet time to get back to me about buying one.

The pet store guy who wanted to buy sand boa babies is now hemming about it and wants to know how cheap I will sell my anerys.

Campus is infested with sandhill cranes, and I am afraid to venture off the sidewalks for fear of getting pecked to death by four feet of croaking avian hate.

Of all the animals I worked with at the zoo, the ones I came into direct contact, no bars, with, the scariest was the motherfucking maraboo storks. Those things look like zombie cranes and their beaks were large and sharp enough to sever fingers. Didn't help that I tossed them some treats in the form of feeder mice (thawed, once frozen) and the female kept following me around wanting more. Every loving week.

The mushrooms I got for dinner tonight are all soggy and probably no good.

I did all my Xmas shopping for the kids I babysit, and now they're into new things, the boy into Star Wars and the girl into Power Rangers. I got them several small cute things like origami paper sets and a large stuffed Beanie Baby each. Last year I gave the boy walkie talkies that ended up not working well, and when their mom was irritated about something she snapped that they were crappy dollar store toys. Some of the toys I did pick up were from the dollar store but not loving walkie talkies. Kids don't care if the SillyPutty or origami kit comes from Michaels or Dollar Tree, especially when it was from the former sold to the latter cheap.

PISS hasn't passed out the Secret Santas yet and I wanted to do my shopping yesterday.

Had a fun Xmas party yesterday and had the fourth largest amount of raffle tickets for the cool raffle. By the time my ticket was drawn there were five items left, none of which I'd use. Meanwhile people who had half the tickets I did got some awesome poo poo. Luck of the draw.

A pet store finally said they wanted all 15 of my sand boa babies but the cost to ship them, and having to ship them in a certain container and box, is like giving four of the babies away for free.

I made a ton of the polish ornaments for people at work. Three people said thank you. At the Xmas party no one was that interested either. As fun as these are to make, I might just keep them for myself next year.

The old boss I started out on good terms with, then got onto bad terms, and in the end I wanted to see her eaten by a lion, is now in a new department I might have to deal with her again. Bitch why didn't you stay in Africa at that cheetah sanctuary like you had planned!

I'm pretty much a crazy cat lady by default of my mom, and we have a ton of cats, and there is no loving way they take up more than a few hours straight of play, cleaning up, and feeding. I have no idea how a single cat (though to be fair, it is a kitten without playmates which is retarded) takes up loving hours of time.

An old high school friend I keep in contact with over Facebook has four-month-old twins, is working 40+ hours a week, managing a household, and writing a novel at the same time. Why the gently caress can't I get inspired to write anything period when all I have is free time?

My other friend is too sick to want to play any online games with me.

The girl at work stole my work phone charger, broke my charger, denied breaking it, and I got into a yelling fight with her because I had to buy a new one to do my job for the rest of the week until a replacement could be shipped out. She still denies breaking it despite being the only person besides me to use the loving thing. Oh, and she broke her own charger and the backup charger too.

I bought my mom a Nook Color Tablet for Xmas, thinking she would be excited...and she isn't. She hasn't even used the thing. She uses her old black and white Nook still.

People tell me all the time that I'd be a great mother, but I have a short fuse, a nasty temper, and I like my alone time too much. Plus having a baby would require me to visit a sperm bank and be a single mother. There are times I see my friends or friends of friends or total strangers with their kids and it looks so nice....and then I remember being a nanny for two different families and all the poo poo kids get into. So I borrow kids from friends for free sitting here and there. I would be a lovely mom but appear to be a drat good aunt. And the only reason that bothers me is that so many people tell me I'd be a good mom, and that parenthood is super easy. Somehow being an aunt doesn't rank for them.

How the hell do you break a phone charger? :psyduck:

It's a charger for a vehicle, and rather than pull at the base to unplug it, she would just grab the cord and yank it out. Every time she got out of the car, which for a delivery van, is often. So yanking the cord 10-20 times a day to unplug the charger, five days a week. You get the idea.

Am in an online rpg where the GM has decided that all the characters need to focus their attention on character X. Every one of them. Anyone who deviates from this is forced back into the fawning over this loving character that is the GM's pet. The GM is a pretty poor one because she casts every single one of her favorite pet NPCs as 'mysterious things in their past made them this way!' and the entire quest gets put on hold to solve the loving mystery. No, GM, we don't give a poo poo that your favorite character was once kissed against his will. How the gently caress is that important? Oh, he's been moping about that for twenty years and won't move on with his life? No one cares! Even loving Twilight doesn't move this slow or stupid! And why do you insist on saying 'oh, we'll skip this' scene that might have some action or actual play because you want everyone to fawn over this rear end in a top hat again? ....in short, lovely GMs who decide what an adventure rpg needs is loving Dr. Phil.

My friend and I have an online rpg that's been going on for a year plus now. Recently she went from posting a few times at day to once a week or two. I told her we should just stop playing if it'll be that long for an update. Now there's a fight brewing because she wants to keep playing but says it might be a month before she can update. Could be longer. I told her I'd rather not play then, because a scene that should take 10 minutes to do is lasting months. And it becomes boring.

This entirely.

First world problem: being depressed all day because of that. Getting teary-eyed a few times due to that, combined with terrible sinus pressure and headache.

Oh, and then I was T-boned in an accident. Did put that 'boo hoo poor me' poo poo right into perspective. Thanks Loki.

Wanting to take a day off tomorrow because of the accident today (I'm a driver) but we are down a driver already and I'm just head-stuffed, not hurt from the accident. Got sick time. Don't want to use it.

What use had they for tricks and cunning, living in the enemy's warren and paying his price?

The disgusting meth-head-looking toothless smoker crone at work used my personal phone and van yesterday. The van is a backup so it isn't precisely mine, and I found out after I blew up about her using my stuff that phones are not assigned anymore. $400 pieces of equipment that anyone can use and break, and we have no backups. Great idea!

Bought a tank divider for my fish tank, and the loving thing won't fit, despite the fact the tank is a standard 10 gallon. If I cut along the edges to make it fit, the fish can squeeze through the gap. I tried to set it up for about 15 minutes before screaming and scaring the cats out of the room.

The general screaming in frustration probably also ties in to my period coming unexpectedly, someone at work stole my entire loving BOX of Costco-amount pads, so I had to run to the dollar store and buy the cheapass ones there.

I can't find any more of my favorite gum at the grocery store, so I have to order it online and hope it doesn't melt in the heat.

It's been over two months since my friend went into her depression. I don't mean clinical depression. I mean she said she is depressed because her favorite pony character is now a princess and her character is ruined, and as a result she doesn't want to do anything but mope about it. Damnit girl, why did you get into loving ponies? You used to be a decent if scatterbrained person and now, well. You're a brony who got that character tattoo'd on you and now you're upset because she isn't herself anymore and you're torn between editing the tattoo or getting it removed.

I have to watch that show because of my kid, and I was wondering if that episode was going to upset a lot of supposed adults. Looks like I was right!

It's loving amazing how much it matters to her.

Case in point: we both loved Avatar: The Last Airbender. I tried to watch Korra, and hated it. So I didn't watch it. I still don't watch it. I don't give a poo poo about the series. What I don't do is post how much I miss the 'real' season and how lovely the new series is and why this and that and don't talk to any of my friends because I am so depressed about a loving cartoon.

It is a cartoon! Get. Over. It!
