Wednesday randoms

[stephreloaded]

I think this is the 1st time I start one of these.

My random:
Here, motorcycles are like a plague. So I am driving to work I am on my lane going at normal speed, this guy in his motorcycle just comes and cuts me off. I honk at him for being a complete asshole. Then as we had to stop at a red light, he stops and gets on my window and starts yelling at me that I had to let him go because the light was red anyway. He kept calling me fat over and over. He nearly causes and accident but of course it would be my fault.

[glitzyglow]

Ha, I just started one but deleted it!

Although not my hump day today, just a Tuesday for me.

I am grumpy this morning but I'm trying not to be. That said, I went to bed way early last night so I could feel good today, but instead I was awoken at 1:30am when my roommate was using either the blender, food processor, or electric mixer to make cupcakes. She stopped after she woke me up, but I couldn't fall back asleep. She left a note for me to eat some cupcakes and I know it's because she feels badly for waking me, but what did she think would happen when you use a loud, grinding kitchen appliance in the middle of the night?! I had planned to get up early to run, but being woken up and not being able to fall back asleep until much later ruined plans for my morning run.

I have an article due for a small local publication, but it's currently too long. I'm annoyed with myself for picking a topic that is too long and I think I am just going to write a new article that fits the length criteria because I don't think I can edit down my current piece any more than it is.

My dogs were all up on me last night in bed. And I think my ghost was banging around. I had a near empty water bottle fall over, my towel dropped off the towel rack, and I kept hearing pop noises like the ones you make with your mouth. I turned on my light like five times to ensure I was alone in the room. I slept poorly.

I texted a very loved person in my life about how target had a 5 dollar t-shirt sale and they said they don't shop there anymore because of letting men into the women's restroom. I just didn't respond because I didn't want to argue with her. GAH.

My vacation starts tomorrow at 3pm. YAY.

omg this would make me rage

I feel like I might be getting sick. That's not good for my revisions or my trip this weekend.

glitzyglow I always feel badly when I use a blender in the morning, and I try to wait until after 8am, if I make smoothies. I can't imagine what your roommate was thinking at 1:30am!!!

[Eureka1984]

I'm feeling lost and a lone. I'm in this weird headspace. I'm glad I deleted my Facebook with the hopes of getting back to my center but I'm feeling all down too. I only have a few friends. Everyone else kind of disappeared. And I knew that would happen but it sucks..

[doglove]

Hugs Eureka1984. What about volunteering for something you enjoy or think you'd enjoy? glitzyglow that would make me so angry.

I was already in mini-vacation mode when a stack of work just appeared on my desk and due by Friday. So I'm trying to plug away through that before the end of the day.

[Eureka1984]

Thanks doglove, yes, I've joined some local meet ups with hopes of finding new hobbies/friends.

glitzyglow that would make me so mad.

[glitzyglow]

TR, bg, doglove, Eureka1984, I was seething, but kept my composure which I'm proud of because when you mess with my sleep...watch out. Her argument is that normally I'm a heavy sleeper so she didn't think it would wake me up. I mean, I don't hear her come home and it once it took me a while to wake up when she was banging on the front door, but I don't think that equals me being able to sleep through the noise of whatever kitchen appliance she was using.

Eureka1984, big hugs.

glitzyglow, I can commiserate. My roommate is always effing loud and a night owl. She's a door slammer (like SLAM, not just not turning the handle to close) and bangs around pots and pans past midnight.
If I were you, I would have a new roommate, in prison, because I would have killed her with an electric mixer.

Ha! My roommate actually works nights, so when she's off work she's up all night. Normally she's considerate, so I don't know what got into her last night.

Had a terriable night last night and was all emotional which is not like me.

Broke up with my friend of 15 years because he wants to be friends with benefits and I so do not want that. When I told him I did not want that he said we can hangout and do stuff with no title then. NO, no that is not working for me. He then told me that I had not been divorced long and I should not be looking for a relationship. I agree to a point. If I am friends with benefits I would not be dating anyone else because I just would feel bad. So I want to keep the possiblity of dating open so no benefits for him... He both same something and he was angry and I was sad....

One another note a guy I do not know who friended me about a month ago on Facebook messaged me last night. I responded back and forth for a couple of hours. He was hinting but never asking or saying anything really....

I am so sore from my workout at the gym the last 2 days......

Is it wrong to want someone to care, love and respect all at the same time?? My birthday is Monday and I had arranged to not have my daughter to go out with my friend. I do not think that is happening so I am making resevations for 1 at a fancy restaurant to celebrate my birthday by myself. Last year XH decided to go to a wedding and spend the night with his GF on my birthday less tha a month after he told me he wanted to divorce.

I'm sorry you are feeling down.  It's not wrong to want that, but you do need to take some time to work on yourself.  If I remember correctly, you haven't been divorced for very long, right?

[glynn]

Nope, a little over a month but we have been seprated for over a year. The marriage was over long before that. I am not looking for a serious relationship but more of a dating thing.

Your "friend" is a fucking dick. No way does he have any right in the least to be angry that you don't want to fuck him. Dude is not your friend. 

That is what I said...

[dancelnow]

Since word of my divorce has started going around work, it seems to have brought out of the woodwork all the men unhappy with their marriages to hit on me. Seriously guys, when I start dating the goal won't be to be the other woman. So stop it.

I actually have a lunch "date" with a friend that is one of these offenders so we can discuss what's appropriate. Saying in front of the crew while staring at my lips while I'm giving him a formal technical recommendation, "I can't comprehend what you're saying with those lips" when I'm wearing red lipstick is not ok.

[shoofly]

I am so tired...the last couple weeks, my sleep has gone to shit. I've always had trouble sleeping, especially about a year ago when I went a year+ on only about 2-3 hours of sleep per night. I'm feeling that way again, and I am not a fan. I do have a new sleep med to try.......but ugh. I'm not a fan of too many meds.

Since my younger brother passed away in February, nothing has been the same. I still feel lost, confused, sad, depressed. Not as much as at the time, but it comes and goes. I also still have flashbacks and thoughts of that day. I miss him. So, so much. I wish there was more I could've done or said for him but mental health issues are the devil.

[glitzyglow]

I'm so sorry about the loss of your brother shoofly. Be gentle with yourself, grief comes in waves.

[TR]

(((shoofly)))

[Mrs.Rad888]

I'm sorry for your loss, shoofly.


I got a diagnosis for my eye irritation, I officially have pinkeye. That means that I have to get rid of my "wet" eye makeup--eye liner and mascara. So, while I am in San Diego (where the shopping is tons better than where I live) I went to the good stores and replaced my eyeliner (plus a couple more) and mascara. I also got a few new tops and a water bottle that says "Meow Chicka Meow Meow" just because.

[sweetchix]

Mrs.Rad888, I am liking the water bottle, not the eye infection. Hope it's better soon.

[sweetchix]

I'm watching Nightmare on Elm Street. Again. I am leaving for NC after DDs get on the bus in the morning and I haven't even started packing yet. XH is being an ass (see my thread).

[stephreloaded]

shoofly, I'm really sorry about your brother. Lots of hugs!!
