Okay, we have out reasons to be happy, why don't we have our reasons to be
upset, mad, bummed, things past and present that piss us off.  What drives
you up the wall?

People who don't stand up for themselves...  that drives me nuts.  And slow
drivers.  And people at the U-Scans who take FOREVER.  Um, and the guy who
works with me and completely ignores me when I say, "Go away.  I'm busy." 
Grrr...boot to the head!!!  :)

work.
mowing the lawn
cleaning up after other peoples messes
haveing to re-do shit 'cause other's fucked it up the first tmie.
(see work)

no caffine in the morning
people who don't cleanup themselves, but get all high and mighty over YOU not
cleaning when you're busy.
people who can't feed the cats even when they are home when the dishes are
empty.
stabbing ones self with pins, from the finger, to the bobby when not paying
attention.
And the P.A. that I work with, who gets all high and mighty, comes to my desk
after hours, and goes through all the stuff, and takes what she wants and
doesn't tell me, and then bitches at me and gives me attitude when I say
"Please don't touch the stuff on my desk, I am responsible for it.  Also,
please don't leave me things strewn out on my desk, put them in the inbox so
the don't get lost" and then does does the SAME damn thing over the weekend.

Hide your stuff.  :)

As for the roomie who can't feed the cats when he's home, start hiding the
groceries.  When he gripes about empty human dishes, tell him he can have some
when the kitty dishes get filled.  Hee hee...  

<morgan is ruthless when it comes to lazy roommates>

people who come up to you when you're Xerxing one page and say "Can I get one
in?" (usually forign lab students)

and fathers who don't answer their bleeping phones...

My boss... as you all know...

men
men in particular
and men who brin g"confidential" envelopes for your boss, which make you a
cuirous as cats about it

women who play with you
and then decide that you're not worth the time and break you, just so
no one else can
totall clairty when one's trying to drive

people who can't compliment you unless they are physically impared in some
way, and then when they aren't, don't want to hear about it, or admit it,
because they believe it shows a sign of weakness...

Drivers who like to go too slow, then tkae a turn to tkae a shortcut, and then
end up butting right back where they were, instead of just waiting like a
normal human.

feeling used and abused, even when things are going well

(there are cures for some of those. ;) )

I'm getting the feeling there's a huge issue at play here.  Living with an
asshole ex?

And if so, why do you put up with this bullshit?  He's not worth it.  Nobody
is worth your misery.  NOBODY.  Nobody nobody nobody.  

No...don't say "but"...  NOBODY.  Keep repeating that 'til you convince
yourself.  Kicking a wall helps too...

Actually, kicking him out would help even more...hee hee hee...

scrwe that, just kick him.
in the groin.

Yes folks, this IS the friendship conference... <grins>

A kick in the groin doesn't sound too friendly as far as I am concerned.
maybe there are people who dig that, but I certainly don't.
(only jesting)
There are a lot of things that tick me off, I am not Dutch for nothing.
(We have made complaining a national sport)
Bssy people
oops (bossy even)
emptyheaded arrogance
people that take their wealth for granted (rich kids for instance)
fraternity guys
anarchism in traffic (but it seems I am the only one abiding to the rules)
Long waiting lines in the supermarket
indolence in general
portable phones and the non-conversations they are having in them
and why dio they have to shout enabling people in a three hundred yard area
to listen in?
rain
I hate rain
really
plain stupidity
short sightedness
egoism
racism
I could go on for ages

Ooh...I LOVE rain...

rain is ok, but takes away the best venues

I love rain too, sitting in it, or even a good thunderstorm, violent and good
sleepy weather.

Yes, I happen to have a problem with a roomie, but amazingly enough, most of
those comments can be made about my family members too.  <sigh>

When my female cat shits in my bed because she is mad at me and I have to wash
my blanket again...that pisses me off.  Why is she mad?  She's been thinking
that I am giving too much attention to the younger.  But then she acts like
it is all okay.  What's worse is that there is a large hole in my fitted
sheet, I found today, because the material is so old, and I wash it once a
week, that it wore right through.  I can't wash it again, because of the hole
and it frayed too.  

When I want to go to bed at 9, but have to wash my blanket, do more laundry,
work on my costume, and other assorted responsibilities....  

Thunderstorms are beautiful to look at, but not for being in it as far 
as I am concerned.
A couple of years ago I was nearly struck by lightning, and since that 
date they make me feel queezy.

As for rain, see I got to cycle through wind and weather each and single
 day, as I don't own a car. The charm of rain wears off once you've been
 soaked one time too many.

Are you ever happy, ashke?  I mean, I know you have happy moments, but it
sounds like you refuse to acknowledge that life really isn't all that bad.  90%
of the responses in this item are yours.

        I'm with Morgan and Sunny on this one;  rain can be increidble,
especially a light cool rain during a hot summer's day, or any sort of rain
when you're at home reading at night, especially under a tin roof.  Rain isn't
so incredible when you're packing up a tent or working outdoors. 

Morgan, when you feel like life is shitty, more than likely a large part of
it is.  We all go through are low points, and it is fine to extress them. 
and the item only has 2oish responses...

I'm so tempted to just walk right out of work right now... <sighs> Just 
leave and not come back.

Now, where did that million go?

Oh, I wasn't trying to be mean...  I'm just getting a weird feeling about a
broader picture.  <shrug>  Please don't ever take anything I say as malevolent.
 I tend to be more harsh in typing than in speaking voice.  ;-)

My life is happy, some of the time.  But mostly here I am expressing things
that bother me when they come to mind.  I am at a low point at the moment,
but it too shall pass.  

But I am bumming because I now have spent the little money I have on fabric
and stuff, and have to find the money to GET to the Ren Fest.  I haven't even
the money to buy a ticket now.

Soda bottles?  CDs you can take back?  Umm...donating plasma?  Pick up all
loose change and count it.  Find a rich friend.  :)

Hopefully I might be ablet o get $50 for putting this computer together.  I
dunno.  If not, I might have to beg.  I took the soda back to buy grommits.

Mary- let me see if I can't help get you in to Ren Fest after I have my 
eye appointment on Friday. Heh, if things go badly I won't have any 
cash either.

where's wallece?

Ren Fest.
(Brings back memories)

That'd be sad, girls.
At least for I know she got a gorgeous green dress.

Me thinks clees has a thing for mooncat...  ;-)

Gorgeous green dress that Meg will be wearing, not me. <grins> I'm 
borrowing a dress from 
Jenn.

Okay, so this doesn't bum me or anger me, but it does freak me.  
Instead of getting my new bed weekend *after* this one, it's coming 
*this* Saturday, meaning I have to get my *entire* room re-arranged by 
then. 

\awww. poor brecita.

Morgan!

Yes?

(pobrecita Greg. <grins>)

No worries, bed move has been put off again.

<mutters something along the lines of 'I'm going to kill him' thinking 
about a certain leprechaun>

Heh.  Yeah, well, I am hoping that the resident in awe of my command of the
computer installation task will be willing to part with some of his hard
earned cash.  He doesn't like the idea of me slaving on this thing (or at
least midly working) and then getting nothing.  SO I can hope.  All I need
now is to finish my outfit.

Grandmother is coming to the ER.  I get to meet her.  Apparently the fact that
I have no medical training means nothing, I work here.  Oh well.  Dr. will
be in surgery today, so she understands and won't need me.  

you konw poeople. you can get an in. 

Plus you're family, even if you don't always like each other.

So... who is up for helping me bury the leprechaun?
