The Not Happy Thread

Someone stole one of my dryers at the laundromat. Have to cram everything into one so it'll take twice as long to dry. But I believe karma's going to bite that guy in the ass.

 

Let this be a lesson to you: Don't store your dryers at the laundromat! Keep them at home!

 

Haha. I don't have one at home. The guy literally threw my clothes out of the dryer as I was going to the washer to get another load.

 

Ow! That's uncouth!

ETA: Use your magic powers to turn him into a newt!

 

Wow, that sucks.

 

I would have turned and said, in my best imitation drill Sergeant voice, "HEY! Now pick them up and put them BACK in there. NOW!!"

On the other hand, that probably works best if you're 6'4", as I am, with a voice that can rattle the walls. Still, if you wear a "You don't want to mess with me!" attitude, you can double your apparent height and authority. Also, someone else might have stepped in to back you up.

 

It also works better if the dryer is not already running on someone else's dime.

My dogs have killed 2 moles in two days. Yuk. And I had to keep them away from the dead thing while trying to get something to pick it up with, not an easy task when two rambunctious dogs are trying to get at the critter you have covered with your shoe and you are trying not to step hard enough to squish the thing into a bloody mess.

It was interesting though. My female dog is a very stealthy hunter. She moved closer ever so slowly then pounced! The male is a klutz. He can't sneak up, he charges at critters barking loudly. Even weirder, she understands the pointing gesture and he doesn't.

 

Yeah, I know that these next three weeks are the danger period and then after it'll be okay, I just need to get through until then. It's my mantra. It's just... holy shit, this is so hard.

 

^ Just take it one day at a time and pick something you'll enjoy doing at the end of the day. Always works for me.

Just been feeling tired lately, I'm stressed out and to be honest, while it wasn't as bad as last month, I would really like it to be next Sunday now.

I could go on a long rant about my problems but I think I've spread enough negativity for a while, so I'm just going to go to bed.

 

I forgot to go to the store. I've nothing to complain because there is enough supplies in the house, but it's not going to make my diet for today any less repetitive.

 

Found out yesterday I have osteopenia. It's not that big of a deal. It's reversible. I just have to take calcium supplements twice daily, start walking more...... And change my birth control. Ugh. Shitty.

 

Last night, the air temperature in my room was not satisfactory. I tried cooling it down, and I got cold. When I pulled my covers up, I was too hot. It was a traumatic experience for me. I lost about fifteen minutes of sleep.

 

Thank God you survived! Lesser men would have given up in despair.

 

Think I may have bitten off more than I can chew by stepping up to help 17 other authors. I am figuratively, shitting bricks!

Oh walk it off, ya big baby. There have been times I had not gone to sleep at all because reasons yet I've managed to push through despite feeling like the living dead.

Hello everyone, so my dog is not feeling well at all so I'll have to take her to the vet. Doesn't want to eat, yips when I touch her abdomen. Guess you can't really be prepared when your dog suddenly needs to go to the vet.

 

I hope your buddy is OK, @Link the Writer.

 

Thanks. She's got a little pancreas problem, so they're keeping her overnight with meds to make sure nothing else happens.

 

It's awful when pets are ill.

 

Well good luck. It looks like it can be mild and treatable. I hope it turns out to be.

 

Well, either my iPod's battery is damaged, or that gas station-supplied charger is an even bigger piece of crap than I thought.

 

I found my iPod that had been lost for four years just the other day and was shocked that the battery charged right up. I can't seem to get it to update my email though.

 

I bet it was in the last place you looked.

 

No, I gave up looking for it long ago, figuring it was in with the camping gear that was socked away in a closet that had a bunch of boxes in front of the closet door, so I didn't look any further.

Then I cleaned out my car because there's been a slew of car break-ins in the neighborhood and there it was, in a little leather bag I thought held a calculator.

 

Way to spoil a good joke.

Still, good thing you weren't looking for your calculator, right?

 

Meh, there are a million calculators around here and one on my computer. That's why I hadn't looked in the little bag when I saw it in the car.
