First World Problems

I feel like its been a while since we've shared these.

I'm about 1 more load of dishes that don't come clean in the dishwasher away from hand washing dishes and that thought almost makes me want to cry. We've had the drying part serviced twice in 2 months and now we are having soap dispenser issues. We've tried both the liquid and the gel packs.

At the airport now. Through various credit cards and memberships, I have access to like 4 lounges in this terminal. One has great seating but shitty food. Another has great food but never has decent seating. Why can't one lounge have it all???

There are too many restaurants in San Francisco that I want to try and I won't have the time or the ability to eat it all. I even created a matrix of when the restaurants I want to try are open or closed to fit in as many as I can.

My crock pot broke and I wanted to buy one of the new Pioneer Woman patterned crock pots. The pattern I really want is sold out everywhere and so I had to settle with my #2 choice.

I might lose 1500 dollars on airfare to San Juan if American Airlines decides not to cancel the flight next weekend. Clearly in the grand scheme of things, a FWP.

My feet are freezing in my new ballet flats.

I'm currently annoyed at my sister for requesting Christmas wish lists for me, DH, both the kids and...our dogs. While at the same time responding with "oh, you don't have to get us anything" when I ask for her and BIL's Christmas list (no kids). I provided the lists for the kids, told her she'd have to improvise for me and DH (even though I have repeatedly asked her not to buy us gifts) and told her I'd be pissed if she showed up with actual gifts for our dogs.

My work computer mouse is dying, requiring me to click harder than usual. Too hard though, and it acts like a double-click. I'm ready to hurl it out the window.

Our fancy, expensive fridge keeps having ice build up. We've had to defrost it 3 times since we moved in 2.5 months ago. F Samsung.

I'm having the same issue with Orange Beach/Gulf Shores, AL. We are going next week and there's just so many places I've found on Pinterest lists that I don't think I can possibly get them all in. Especially with my picky SIL.

I feel like my mouse is too loud and that when I scroll (with the little dial), all of my coworkers must think I'm shooting a machine gun.

I want a new phone. I have a iphone 6 that's past it's prime and battery life sucks. I'm pretty convinced I need to stay with the soul mongers (apple), but uncertain which phone to throw them money at for.

I have my annual insurance physical, on the plus side it is in my office building. On the down side, it is a fasting blood work, that I scheduled for 2:45pm which means that I am so hungry. And I feel stupid about scheduling it then.

mommyatty, What do you think about United's lounges? I had a guest pass to one, which seemed great when I was there last week. But I am trying to decide if it is work buying a membership to. Any thoughts?

I can't get a signal for my SiriusXM radio in my office today. I tried refreshing the signal a few times with no luck. It's too quiet in my office.

We had the same problem over and over and over again. We finally ditched the Mfer.

I don't know why the builder in this area has that fridge as their standard.  It's barely 4 years old.  All our neighbors have the same issue.  When we get a bit of extra money I'm sure it will be going bye bye.

I agree.  DH talked to an IT guy at his company (DH's phone is company-issued, but he is able to use it as his personal phone too), and the IT guy said that even though Android phones are competitive with iPhone, from the IT/tech perspective (or his, anyways), because Apple designs both the hardware and the software, supposedly they have better functionality.

I have a 6S that is so far working pretty well.  I'm hoping to get one more year out it.

My girlscout coleader and I have different ideas of what this troop should do. She's all about teaching the ideals of scouts and having ceremonies. I just want to take the kids hiking already.

I have $15 Kohls cash. I have a plan to go in and get an on sale necklace for no more than $15. I have the cash because last time I went in with $10 in cash, I came out with $60 worth of stuff, so clearly, my plan is in peril.

[mommyatty]

phdmomma- I travel a ton. I would hate not to have lounge access. I don't know the United clubs. But clean bathrooms and water/snacks? Totally worth it if you travel all the time.

Can you buy it online and pickup in store?

Probably a good idea. I can get off track pretty quick in there though.

I'm in London for work and since I'm the only person from the head office (everyone else is based in London), I'm eating dinner by myself almost every night. People at the office keep giving me restaurant recommendations but I don't want to go anywhere fancy by myself!

This sounds like my dream. I love going out to eat alone when I'm traveling for work. I can relax with my wine, read a book, and eat good food. Perfect.

Go all the places yourself!
