Can we get some mid-week randoms in here?

[aak0517]

Or vents or whatever

My randoms:

- Apparently Lauren Conrads wedding pics are in this week's issue of Us Weekly and I'm stupid excited about seeing it. I love her and her style and can't wait to see her wedding details lol I'm lame, I know.

- A friend of mine posted pics of a limited edition flavor of Oreos that she found at target. Carmel Apple. I am skeptical, but I love Carmel Apple in the fall so I may give it a whirl.

ETA: My coworker had a package of the oreos and I tried them. They aren't terrible and I ended up eating 3 of them. lol

My number one rant again... the boot. I don't understand why people stare and look at me like I have a third leg... it's just a flippin boot! Oh, and I'm tired of getting asked what happened. I told the meat guy at publix that my BF got lippy with me. And told someone else I hurt it crushing an empty box of wine lol. Telling people I don't know how I fractured it just sounds silly lol.

Nooooo! Back away from those Oreos! So nasty!

[phoenixrising]

I found myself staring longingly at the cookie dough Oreos at the store the other day. I am doing the Whole30 right now, and that is certainly not Whole30 compliant!

That said, the caramel apple sounds gross.

[busybodyk]

I need a bitch fest! On Monday my daycare told me they are closing and gave me a 2 week notice. WTF!!! I am freaking out!!!!

My #1 vent.  I *ran* to Safeway this morning to grab the LC issue of US Weekly and they didn't have it out yet.  I was so upset b/c I'm dying to see it!

[bloom17]

Oh, and also I am OVER summer weather. Enough with the heat already!!!!!

[bcarp30]

The caramel apple Oreos are so beyond gross. I was greatly disappointed.

It is so hot this week and I LOVE it. I am not at all ready for snow and cold, but I am ready to wear fall clothes. I feel conflicted.



Eta- busybodyk I can't believe that! Lots of finding a new place you like quickly juju!

Seriously - that's insane. I hope you find something you like.

I got nothing. I was going to wake up and do a 3 mile run for my marathon training and decided to sleep. Looks like I'll be running in the 90 degree heat when I get home. Blerg.

[grace]

I did once stare at a woman wearing a boot. She had 1 really high heel on, so she'd step up high on her uninjured leg and then step down really far on her boot leg. That's weird. And not good for your back.

This might be a confession, but I don't like the look of blanket scarves. It looks like it's eating your face.

[melmo1122]

I posted this in the MM randoms, too funny not to share here as well. My niece wrote a sentence and drew a picture about it. Lol!

[ilovedpp]

I'm super burnt out at my job.....I've been here for 10 years and it was my first "real" job out of college so I'm scared/unconfident to pursue anything else. But, some days I swear I do like 3 hours of work and 5 hours of surfing random websites and GBCN.


busybodyk That sucks, hope you can find something else quickly!

memenee I'm glad to hear they are gross, I almost bought some but got scared off by the neon green color.

[jm1211]

busybodyk Ugh that sucks! Hope you find a new place soon!

My random #1 I'm annoyed that people can't pronounce my last name! I never had issues with my maiden last name and it had more letters and wasn't a common name at all. The girl at CVS asked me 3 times how to say my last name and at the end says "are you sure?" Ummm...yeah I know how to say my last name!

#2 I've been eating crappy since my cruise and despite working out apparently I've put on some weight. I couldn't button my pants today but I wore them anyway.

[mrspost08]

@blonde407 LOL I love that you are telling random stories! Hilarious!

[majick143]

busybodyk, that's awful!! I think childcare is one of those massively stress inducing things. I hope that you find somewhere that you love even more for her though!

@blonde407, You're in good company friend. I'm currently sporting a lovely air splint on my right foot after taking a terrible fall while teaching a zumba class last night. I have a badly sprained ankle that I can't put ANY weight on and I landed on my tailbone which is also sore and angry. I have to walk with crutches which are just awful. Not sure what I'm going to do tomorrow. The nanny was here to help me today and take me to urgent care but tomorrow I'm supposed to be on my own with a 9 month old, 3 and 4 year old. In a house with stairs..... <insert sobbing here>

That does, actually, make me feel better!

I loved the one year that they had candy cane Oreos. The were a little different from the mint ones and had red and white filling. SO YUMMY!

Oh no! I'm so sorry, hope you heal quickly.

What did you do when it happened? I've seen an instructor fall and she was ok right away, but I worried about her the rest of class.

I just received an email from a customer copying my manager saying "I sent you this request yesterday and have received NO RESPONSE."

Well, you dumb fucking twat, it's because you completely BUTCHERED my last name in the email address. I didn't RECEIVE YOUR REQUEST b/c YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO COPY AN EMAIL ADDRESS. I'm raging. RAGING.

AND IT'S 9PM! GO FUCK YOURSELF!!!!! Omg. I just need to make it to October. OCTOBER. I WILL BE FINE IN OCTOBER.

WTF? Interesting that she figured out your email when she wanted to complain. Some people.

Randoms:
-I need a manicure and I'm too lazy to go or do it myself--maybe tomorrow?
-My job sucks lately and I dread waking up to go there
-I should probably put a freeze on spending money on random stuff that I don't actually need
-I'm liking the cool fall weather we've been having

[callmehales]

@natariru so what you're saying is....we need to do this. stat.

Thanks!  Oh I'm just stupid and it was during a salsa and I jumped out into it with a little more gusto than usual and down I went. I've had moments when I started to trip or something but always catch myself but last night it was a major spill    I was so embarrassed and they were so sweet and got me ice and turned off the music and gathered my things and got me to the car. It was mortifying.  lol

Ummm, what? That is crazy! What are you going to do? I live on an Island and there are 3 daycares...one of them is not very good. E goes to one of the good ones and the other good ones just went through some major administrative changes and closed their infant care room. So now there are zero infant daycares on the island and all the families from the one that is changing over are now trying to get in to my daycare and there is a 6-9 month waiting list. Craziness.

I was too angry when I wrote this, lol. Customer emailed her manager complaining that I hadn't gotten back to her. Her manager (who I am in contact with numerous times a week) then emailed me & my manager saying "This request was sent yesterday and Ms. Cuntdragon has received NO RESPONSE".

It has not been 24 hours since she sent this request. It's not like I've been sitting around w/ my thumb up my ass. I have over 400 accounts. OVER HALF of them have been yelling at me since August. 

I just wanna be like "You are not my only customer. WAIT."

Or, "Go fuck yourself." 

OMG I hate when people CC a higher up like they are playing "gotcha." What a bitch. That kind of shit pisses me off. Sometimes I really fucking hate having to give good customer service.
