I am annoyed as hell. I ordered a case of soda stream flavors that just arrived via fed ex. I do not even open the box and know something is wrong as there is liquid damage to the outside of the box. I open it up and 4 of the 12 bottles are completely frozen and have exploded. There is sticky liquid all over the place. The other bottles do not feel frozen but feel extra heavy, as if they are close to freezing.
grrrrr, like I want to deal with sending this shit back and reordering.
and now I am annoyed by something I just read on FB from an old HS classmate.
She has been bitching for weeks about her legal fees due to going thru a divorce and fighting her ex on custody issues - yet today she has informed the FB world that she made her down payment today for Lasiks next week.
WTF lady - where are your priorities? and more importantly, keep it off the interwebs.

The only thing I can think is that the LASIK is through an HSA and not out of pocket. Still, hard to feel sympathetic when you see that

I had to drag my butt to the City this morning and get to my OB appointment. Walking 3 avenues and 10 blocks in negative temps SUCKS. All because of a subway "incident."
But baby 2.0 looks good so I'm less freaked out about the last several weeks. I go again in 3 weeks.

Maybe she's spending $600 on a lasik groupon, and you get to see if her cheap choice comes back to bite her?
Nothing definite yet. The vet did blood work and needs a stool sample. For now, we she gave us some new food to try. She thinks it might be as simple as IBS but again, don't really know without getting the blood work back and testing a stool sample.
Last night H and I were starving and went to a Mexican restaurant. It was pretty empty restaurant just a few tables with people. They sat us, plopped down some chips, salsa and menus and then proceeded to ignore us for 15-20 minutes. H could see 5-7 people hanging out at the front hostess desk and they were looking at us but never came over. They were about 10' from us. Finally I said lets just leave. We got up walked right by the hostess and waiters and they said nothing. I've never done anything like that before and I'm still irritated. They weren't busy and it wasn't like we were hidden away in a corner.
Instead I got an awesome slice of pizza. I still want my tacos though. I guess I just won't got back to that place.
Now I want to know where this was so I can avoid it. You can PM me if you don't want to put it out there.

You've got a PM and I hope Bob is ok and feels better. Side note: I love dogs with people names.

Hope Bob feels better soon!
I'm off to a laser hair removal session shortly...hoping that this time, it actually works! Last time, I saw no reduction in hair growth, even after 6 sessions.
I dreamed last night that I got a job offer...second time I've had that dream. It has yet to materialize in real life, unfortunately.
I found out today that the (large, 60+-person) team that I'm part of at work won a big award at our company. As one of my CWs put it, it was nice to have a meeting where someone didn't get laid off. The award is apparently a pretty big deal, so they're going to throw some kind of party for us, which should be fun.

Oooh my gosh you guys! My company has made it to the top three in a contest for the "best in the south sound". This means I get to go to a fancy pants awards luncheon next month... this may call for a new dress... But which one??
This is especially significant because most of the voters in this contest are residential homeowners rather than other companies. I have poured myself into growing the residential side of our business for the last year and not only did I blew my sales goals out of the water last year but I apparently made a big impression on my customers! I'm feeling very accomplished right now.

It's midday, during the week, so I don't want to wear anything to fancy, not to mention the fact that we're a construction company so I could very easily wear anything from a suit to jeans and a nice shirt. They're anticipating between 350 to 400 people in all different industries, so I'm hoping to make the most of the networking opportunity... I'm leaning toward something like a black or gray sheath dress with a statement necklace. Something that looks classy without trying. I'm really bad at fashion. I wear jeans to work every day...
