The fact my eyes glaze over when I try to read any one of Phil's posts. Sometimes I take both hands and tear back my eyelids just so I can make it though one and when I get to the end I realize all that energy was wasted. Just kidding Phil.

You know, I have never visited this thread before, but today is the day. I have had such an ultra foul day that I want to participate :angry:

Husbands that can sleep through children waking up

Not being able to fall back asleep after I get up because he didn't hear

The fact that his loud snoring was probably WHY he couldn't hear

The fact that my 2 year old took a ###### on my new sheets this morning

The fact that my 14 year old is more high maintenance than the 2 year old

Being in the kitchen cleaning up broken glass and having someone ask when is supper

That someone whining when I say supper is going to be awhile unless he wants broken glass in his feet

My sister in law

My other sister in law

My other sister in law

My cousin

My mother's cousin

My father's sister

My father's sister's husband

Bills I don't even know about that suddenly come floating in right when my tax refund is due

People that fish for sympathy comments on Facebook with posts like, "I guess I should just accept that it's never going to improve," or "Bob is feeling a little down today."

Ok, that was therapeutic... :lol:

This has to be one of the best of these gripes, Becky! And because of that I shall give you the secret of overcoming yr ills.

Today, Tucker nibbled off the thread of my only large plastic handled jug (the kind that Hibiscusmile sells) just when I needed it. I trekked over to see Sunny and found her in the shower, sounding rather pissy and "not sure" when she would be out. I have "misplaced" a cook book with a recipe for artichoke hearts after buying all the stuff necessary for the recipe yesterday. My Homage to Noodle thread has become outdated and disappeared. The Census people have threatened to hurt me if I don't fill in their form. I forgot to mention to some forum member or other why referring to the Tin Man as Disney's is perfectly appropriate and has nothing to do with the movie. My kitchen, despite a variety of incentives, refuses to self clean and Tucker isn't any help there, either.

So, I shall take my medicine and wait quietly until the purple, fluorescent winged butterflies begin to gather, with a susurration of their velvet, vibrant wings, and as they slowly come closer, I shall formally forgive Tucker for both the jug and the kitchen, call Sunny and tell her that I love her and will see her tomorrow, buy some asparagus (now down to 99c/lb, locally) and have it with some Hollandaise until the artichoke book turns up, reawaken the Noodle thread by posting to myself, add a note to The Census Guys congratulating them on using the term "sex" instead of "gender" and write a note to the forum member with a URL explaining -- well perhaps the butterflies are not quite close enough for that, yet! :D

So there you go, Becky, "My Chemical Romance' can become your chemical romance, and we all need a little Romance in our lives.

This is more of what pisses me off, hearing Mom in Law say this to Hubby:

"Really, who does she think she is? Does she really think she's cute, having all those damn bugs? Who the heck keeps praying mantises? They're creepy, they're ugly, they're stupid. And those rats too! They smell like s**t, and she DOTES on them like they're her kids. I know why, it's because she can't have kids. She can't have kids, unlike me, so she has animals. Sucks to be her." And of course, my dear ol' Hubby, being nonconfrontational, doesn't stand up for me.

maybe you should stand up for yourself?

The problem there, Emile, is that you can "stand up for yourself" to your parents, and, as a dependent child, the worst that you can get is grounded. Zoe is an emancipated minor and her in laws can legally kick her out of the house. It is one of the most painful situations that I have come across recently.

We think that you're cute, regardless, Zoe!

:angry: :angry: :angry: work started filtering my internets :angry: :angry: :angry:

While I'm glad *this* site is not filtered, harmless sites like flickr and other photo sharing sites are blocked. :angry:

 
Well, the current gf of five years just broke up with me tonight. Oh well, hey laddies I'm single again. :wub:

 
I'm not one to sit around and cry about it. There are way to many young laddies out there that can get to know me better now. The part that really stinks is my six year old has gotten very close to her. We have agreed to mantain a relationship between those two. It wasn't a nasty brake up, just her time to move on I guess.
