The Venting Thread

After work today I was walking down the sidewalk to go to the parking garage where I leave my car. This guy comes flying out of another underground parking lot and stops over the sidewalk that I'm walking down, fully blocking the entire sidewalk down to the street. There are 2 cars coming down the street so I figure this guy is going to wait for the cars to pass and then turn, so I stand there and wait for him to move. Turns out this guy was in such a rush to get out of the garage just to sit in his car on the sidewalk. I don't want to walk in front of his car because I just know that's when he's going to decide to pull off so I'm just standing there talking on my phone

After a good while of me standing and waiting for him to move, he has the nerve to wind down his window and asks me if I have a problem to which I reply "ya, I'm waiting for you to get off the f-ing sidewalk so I can get past you", then he tells me "well why didn't you say anything" and calls me a bitch before he drives off, because apparently sidewalks are meant for cars to park on and not for pedestrians, right?

Oh. My God. I am never eating pizza hut dinner box cheese pizza ever again. I had two slices. The GI upset is unbelievable. I am dying. So glad I have easy access to a toilet right now and that we aren't driving.

I took my first spill bikejoring today. Kinda feel like a badass.



I need proper equipment so bad.

You need pads LOL. Please tell me you have a helmet at least?!

... Uhm, well I would be lying.

So tomorrow you're going out and getting one... lol I wear a helmet and ankle braces when I roller-jor. I prob should wear elbow and knee protection, but at least the brain is protected? lol

Yes, that is definitely on the shopping list. And wearing some sort of long sleeves. Lol!

I also need a new gangline and breaks.

Umm fix that now. Think about it this way, if you knock yourself out what is going to happen to your dogs while you lay there?

Hope you're OK and not too sore tomorrow!

Ugh it's getting old working the closing shift at my job. It's not the job itself...It's the coworkers...The evening/close shift is 90% teenagers who could care less about you know...actually working. And the other 10% are adults who act like they are still in high school .

I got to witness a huge screaming match between my shift manager and a coworker. Neither was in the right. But the manager could have handled the situation much better...You know...By not screaming at the top of his lungs....in a main isle...in front of customers .

I have severe anxiety disorder and the whole thing had me rattled though it didn't directly involve me. It was SO UNPROFESSIONAL and then he had the nerve to shoot me dirty looks because how dare I be there to witness the whole thing. I really didn't have a choice though. Since I was attempting to help a customer in the same area he was screaming in.

Worst part is when the customers wanted to complain about the situation (because THEY were disturbed by his behavior) they were blown off by the other supervisor on duty because in her words "she didn't want to deal with it". She literally left the customers hanging until they gave up and left. I made sure the customers knew about a 1-800 they could call and complain to.

Ugh...my brain! Two more days and then I get a couple days off from the insane asylum.

My friend would like to know if anyone is interested about creating a thread about english language and grammar. She didn't find such. That thread wouldn't need to be only for us, so also other could discuss about the topics in it. She thought that people could discuss about grammar and generally about english. For example my friend herself has some questions about it because she is finnish. So, is anyone interested in discussing about it? :dunno:

If you want to know if people are interested, post a thread.

Aw dude. If ANYTHING get a helmet. You can get a decent one for like $40. I've gone over my handlebars enough times WITHOUT dogs involved to twitch whenever I see something like this.

I suck at waiting.

There are certain people that I don't like and don't want to talk to... I'm not sure why those people find that such a hard concept. Especially as I have been very clear, even to the point of saying it to their face. /sigh.

My ex is apparently breeding my old dog for the first time.

She is 9 in a month or so.

I don't know why this bothers me, but it does. She's in great shape, I'm sure she'll have like 2 big fat puppies.

No health testing or anything though.. I taught him better.
*sigh*

Of flipping course. I'm having some major plumbing issues at the new house.

Yay no toilets and showers.

Gawd, I am such a bear. I have PMS, stressed about work, little sleep, upset about weekend birthday plans changing because of work.....But mostly just PMS.

Poor hubby has really taken the brunt of it at work & home...and the meaner and snarkier I get, the nicer he gets and the more he goes out of his way to help.

I'm just frustrated with myself that I CAN'T be nicer. I'm aware I'm being a jerk but am unable to change it, just apologize later.

This is my first year with PMS in a loooong time (5 years with an IUD) and tempted to go get another IUD just for my husbands sake! I hate feeling this way.

I have hiccups.

This may not seem like a vent on its own... but when I get hiccups, I get them on and off for an entire day. They're loud, hard to suppress, and VERY painful in my chest region.

So of course I have a meeting with a client this afternoon, and need to run a few important errands. And someone will inevitably chuckle and say how "cute" it is that I have hiccups.

I'm erratic, in pain, and I since I can't exactly draw with involuntary spasms I need to re-route my entire day to not include art.

So cute.

Trying to buy my new agility shoes.

Couldn't decide, went back and forth on several, finally decided to just purchase the ones I thought looked the best.

They came yesterday and they looked as great as I imagined.
Put them on and immediately felt pressure in my arch.

NOOOOOOOOO.

I wore them to class to try and convince myself to keep them but I know if I had tried them on in a store, I would have immediately been like "No, these aren't comfortable." So I just printed out my return label and packaged them up to go. I'm so unreasonably sad because I liked how they LOOKED but I know they're not the right shoes...

I ordered another pair but they won't get here until Saturday when I will already be gone at the trial. I'm going to try the running store again tonight and see if they have anything else I might be interested in. I may just end up in my 2s this weekend, because I don't think my old PureFlows are set up to take any more beatings.

I wish I weren't such a running shoe snob. I wish I could just go to Kohls or Target or something and buy something that looks athletic and is all padded and cushy and be like LOOK RUNNING SHOES HURRAY. Whomp.

Seriously annoyed with how much a decent rat cage costs.

Like seriously can I still have some money left for, ya know, bedding, liners, food and rats??
