I overslept this morning. Missed my only Friday class.
Getting into my car to go to work, I hit my head on the top of the doorframe.
Getting out of the car after work, I started to close the door and slammed the bottom corner into my leg.
Work was slow, (I’m a waitress,) and by slow I mean business was almost non-existant, and the tips I did make were credit tips. Meaning I’ll get them on a paycheck in two weeks.
After work, I thought I’d stop and get a cold soda, as I have nothing in my apartment to drink but milk. I grabbed a newspaper and proceeded to the counter with my Pepsi. Dig around in my wallet. . . my debit/check card = gone.
Frustrated, I leave the convenience store and come home to see if I can find the card. . . nope. Last time I used it was to buy gas last night at the convenience store across the street. Go over there - nobody’s turned one in. So I guess I’ll call in the morning and cancel that one and wait for a new one to come in the mail.
So, I scrape up some change and get my Pepsi. Back inside my apartment, I kick off my sandals and promptly stub my toe on the leg of my futon.
Today I stopped for gas cuz I was way on empty. Open wallet. Uh oh. No card. Dig in purse. Nope. Look in ash tray. Only pennies. Shoot. Must have left it in yesterday’s pocket. Damn me for not liking to carry a purse!
Drove the 17 miles praying I wouldn’t run out. Fortunately I didn’t, and my son was kind enough to go back out and get gas.
Not really a whine, it’s just that your story reminded me of mine.
I have my final exam in Animal Behaviour tomorrow at 18:30. Have I started to study? Heck no! I’m just wasting time on the boards, do my things, la dee dah. Why do I have to have an exam tomorrow? Why can’t they just take my word for it that I know what I’m talking about? Why do the boards have to be so damn amusing? Why can’t I blame this on anything else but me? Why must it be my fault? Why must I be lazy? Why must I ask so many questions?
Okay, I think I’m done now. Am I done now?
Yes, I am
[sub]Okay, I think that joke died about half way through. Still better than studying though.[/sub]
The only thing I have to whine about is my Eeeeeevil Roommate, whose definition of compromise is “change everything about your life and personality and schedule so that I, Eeeeeevil Roommate, can live in perfect comfort and happiness and not-caring-about-anyone-but-myself-ness.” OK, so maybe I’m exaggerating, but only by a little bit.
I broke up with my boyfriend last friday. Our mutal friends are no longer interested in spending time with me because he’s such a great guy and I’m making such a poor decision.
I’m going into finals. I have a transport project, a process control project, a 20 page paper on deforestation in Madagascar, a chem lab from heck and my law class final this upcoming week on top of my usual homework. Next week the rest of my classes do finals.
I’m so stressed I think I’m going insane and I can’t sleep. I’m losing track of when I ate last because I’m not getting hungry.
I’m beginning to understand why people climb buildings with large guns. There has to be a way to make it all ease up, and if offing some random pedestrians seems like a way to do so…I’m not saying its a good plan, but I understand the inclination.
Hi Jessity. I would like to oblige and whine with you - but Life is actually pretty good for me, so I can’t. OK, not everything is perfect, but I gotta say: Life can be good if you let it.
However, since yours seems bad to you: Sending warm thoughts your way.
I really tried to come up with something to whine about. Really. I could complain about the paper I have to write for Thursday, or the other two left for the semester plus one final. I also have to work all day tomorrow, and I spent this afternoon (after I got my hair cut) curled up on the sofa with cramps.
But I know I’m the one who’s put off this paper. I could have had it done Wednesday, but I didn’t. And until 3 this afternoon, I had three other papers to do, but one of my professors canceled one. And I got a great haircut. It looks really good, and it looks like something that I can maintain. Plus the cramps are gone. So I really couldn’t whine too much.
Call your bank tonight if they have a 24 hour line. Please. If someone has hold of your card they can empty your account, and that’s worth calling on a Friday evening. And I hope everything else gets better.
If we’re just whining, rather than complaining about real things, I’ve got one.
Where is my remote? There is a single chair and a bed in that room. I keep the remote handy when I’m in the chair or the bed. When I look for it it’s either in the chair or on the bed. Sometimes it’s on the floor.
I’ve cleaned the whole room. I’ve looked on top of the television, on the shelf in the bathroom, and in the refrigerator (long story), and it’s just gone!
People were not meant to have to get out of bed to change the channel. It’s just not right.
There are a bunch of drunk assholes in the hallway yelling and giggling and screaming and being al-around jerks. This wouldn’t be so bad if this was residence, but this is a regular apartment building, complete with kids and old ladies as tenants, and so their behaviour is entirely inappropriate.
I STILL don’t have a job for this summer, and i’m begining to get worried about it. I’m waiting for my previous employer from last summer to say “yes” or “no” so I can stop holding out for that job (it was a GREAT job and i want it back!).
I have one more exam to go, which is good, but I am still a little worried about how I did in another course…I think not so well, and I’m anxious to find out my grades, which won’t be for a while.
thats about it right now. Not too bad, but it could be better. Sorry you had such a crappy day!
