I know it is hunting season but if I see pictures of deer that you killed in my FB feed I will unfriend you. I do not want to be looking at dead animals.

Just be happy you don't have to drive through northern WI/MI on opening weekend. It always seems like there's one strapped to every other truck this time if year.

The problems with exercising your retail therapy online...

1. No instant gratification so less effective
2. Knowing your kind neighbor has your cute shoes and scarf because you are traveling hurts your heart

Booooo.

I can't really share it because I know it will come back and haunt me. But, gah, some people really just suck. There's nothing I hate more than a liar. Fucking liars who lie deserve to ______.

My brother who "found God" and converted to the Mormon church from the Catholic church a few years ago now has collection calls going to my cell phone. The last time I saw him was our dad's funeral in April and it had been a few years before that since I had seen him when he moved out of state to run away from his problems. I have never been a contact for him and DH is pissed. Apparently preaching to others IRL and on FB about how to live your life does not include paying your debts.

I placed a Sephora order 10 days ago. It was supposed to arrive today because Sephora couldn't get their shit together to fulfill orders in a timely fashion. Ok, whatever. 

The order was at my local post office yesterday. Now it's in Miami due to a sorting error. WTMF?

Mine is stupid, but I'm irritated anyway. I got a message on a dating sight form a guy. I replied that thank you, but I wasn't interested, I didn't think we had anything in common. He responded with a diatribe about how if that was my attitude I would always be single, I have a muffin top, no butt, but a pretty face. How I blame all my problems on men and have a bad attitude and that I really should work on that. I reported him and blocked him, I know you can't take dating sites personally, but still.

Warning gross and TMI...







I have had some crazy digestive bug since Nov 1. Nov 1 involved puking. Nov 2 through today have involved diarrhea every few hours. I have repeatedly called my doctors office for the last week. They haven't had me come in just recommended OTC treatments. At this point food looks pretty much tge same leaving as it did going in. To say November has been a shitty month would be an understatement.

On the plus side the pants I bought last month because I was getting fluffy are too big now. I know this isn't really a good thing but I need a silver lining.

Oh geez, @ruralrabbit1, sorry you had to deal with such a loser.

That is awesome! I may have to sign up for instagram just so I can post all the craziness there.

FWP vent

My dive computer software updated. It now has driver errors because they didn't sign it properly (that's the error I get from windows.) The email tag with tech support is driving me nuts. I just want the old software back. (Per support board I'm not the only one with this problem, but the only one complaining about the driver not working. The rest of the complaints are just the dive computer won't connect after the software update. I don't think they've bothered to look into why.) I want my dive chart from a dive DH and I are having a depth argument over - he won't accept the little display chart.

explorer2001 I hope you feel better. Can you ask them for a zofran or pheng script?

[raangoli]

Petty vent: I ordered new folding chairs a month ago because I knew we'd need them for the holidays. They said they'd be in early November. Nope, expected date is November 22nd. I hope I can get them before Thanksgiving. And here I thought I was being proactive ordering them well before I needed them.

I would go in.  That's not normal, and it may need to be cultured.  I know you've had a lot of health issues, and been on a lot of antibiotics and in a lot of healthcare facilities.

I'd be mildly concerned about Cdiff, but nonetheless two plus weeks of diarrhea is not good, especially if the OTC treatments haven't worked.  

Feel better soon.

That is crazy.  All based on one legitimate comment.  He sucks, and I'm glad you reported him.

I finally got an appointment this afternoon. Now they want a culture and I asked them how to culture liquid. They didn't have am answer. Go figure.

I laughed at this, I hope you did too! I hope you can find answers soon. *hugs*

@ruralrabbit1 - What the actual heck?! Ugh. I don't understand people. *hugs*

It was supposed to be funny. What can I say, gallows humor is what I have at the moment.

This link may help for the culture collection.

Every time I order something online, our damn UPS or USPO drivers deliver it to the wrong house. The last 9 of 10 deliveries have gone to the wrong house. I can understand the ones which go to the house with the same house # on the next street over--but most often its not even the right house number.

At least all but once our neighbors have delivered it to us, but I'm sick of someone else opening my packages because they didn't realize it wasn't theirs.

I am disproportionately PISSED that I can't give blood because I lost my drivers license and couldn't get an apt either he dmv until tomorrow.

On campus blood drives are exactly every 8 weeks. So I eithwr wait until the next one or drive out to one of the centers.

My love of convenience is weeping

Why is my boss crazy?

[ddi741]

I'm annoyed that Weight Watcher's is cancelling the meeting I attend on Tuesday nights. They said attendence has been low, honestly it ebbs and flows but we do have a core group of loyal attendees. On top of cancelling it, our last mtg is the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. I fired off and email to them complaining. Atleast give us through the end of the year so we can get through the hardest part of the year, when it comes to food/losing weight. We've already had 2 members cancel because Tuesday was the only night they could get to a mtg / had child care etc.

I heard back and they are sending my complaint to the territory manager. It probably won't do any good but atleast I tried.

[pattieice]

I had McDonalds for lunch. Snapped at DS1 on the way home from school. Ate half of a gallon of ice cream that I don't even really like for dinner.

PMS sucks.

[miniroller]

My vent: I saw pattieice 's post in recents. I don't need McDonalds; I have a baked ziti prepped & ready to pop in the oven. Yet now that's ALL I can think about!!!! And I don't have PMS to blame for cravings! Grrrr... Thanks a lot Pattie

Let's trade! I would LOVE to tear into some baked ziti. Unfortunately homemade meals are few and far between for me. And if you have greasy, buttery garlic bread then I will kiss you on the mouth!

[cheezer]

We're in the midst of a deal at work and one of the parties keeps shouting on conference calls "I'm sorry but we are going to be working through Thanksgiving to get this done. You can have Thanksgiving next year!"

I'm going out of the country to a very remote location starting on Wednesday of next week so I'm not really affected but I'd still like to punch him. It's not like holding off for 2 days is going to affect anything but it will really affect the lives of the people I manage as well as my boss who already work way too much and get no time with their families.

Unless he is a brain surgeon or doing heart transplants, he needs to pull his life out of his asshole.  I hated working with the "I am so dedicated, I sleep in my office" people.  They usually are not particularly effective either.
