seriously?

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

people can be so f-ing rude, you know that?? I mean, seriously.? There’s no reason to be rude to the people at the grocery store, particularly the people who work there.? I just don’t understand the need.? Really.? A little smile, a please or thank you.? Yeah, it’s my job to ring up and bag your crap, but it is not in my job description to take your crap.? Don’t tell me to put it all in one bag, then bitch that I packed it too heavy and get snarky with me.? You’re the moron who asked me to put it all in one bag.? If it’s too heavy, YOU re-bag it, ya dumb shit.? Don’t act like I’ve done something wrong when I did what you asked me to do.? I’m not the idiot who asked for several jars, cans and a half gallon of milk to be bagged together.? I don’t even do that for myself.? But if you ask for it, you get it,

You know what else?? Don’t ask me to pack 2 items inside a paper bag that’s in a plastic bag.? Seriously.? Are you trying to do your best to destroy the planet?? I’m not wasting bags on your dumb ass.? If you want it packed that light, you don’t need double bags — there’s no point.? It’s not like the bottom is going to drop out because there’s an orange and bag of carrots in the frakkin bag.? That shit just pisses me off.

How special you must think you are.? After making your ridiculous demands, you just stand there and watch me bag.? Even better, you throw in comments like “put this in a bag with that.”? Are your arms? broken?? What happened to the concept of “helping?”? Did you forget that little lesson that momma taught you?

my fingers ache…

Friday, March 19th, 2010

so one of the girls at work is pregnant.? I’m working on a blanket for her, been going at it pretty hard the past week or so, it’s almost done.? but now my fingers ache.? It gets better.? An old friend from many years ago is having a baby soon.? A girl (everyone else I know seems to be having boys), so I can make a blanket I’ve been wanting to make for months.? It’s really girly, so it wouldn’t work for a boy, but now I can make it for a girl.? That’s a good thing.? I was thinking that the pattern might be cool in a different color scheme and made bigger, as well.? I’ll have to see how the first one comes out though.

? What is it about building a website for the straightjacket quartet that makes my computer want to stop working?? The first time it happened, my computer had to be reset.? This time, the fans stopped working and it wouldn’t run for more than 15 minutes without getting hot and shutting down.? It’s now cleaned out and running fine, but I’m afraid to start working on the website again, lol.

Work is… interesting.? A new security guy has people on edge.? The vibe that most employees have gotten from him is that he’s not really there to watch the customers.? I think most people are convinced that if he thinks you did something wrong, he’s going to make a stink and paint the picture however he wants to.? Seriously, it’s to the point that, for example, the people who make the prepared foods are afraid to taste the stuff they make.? Something they generally HAVE to do to make sure that it tastes good, has enough seasoning, etc.? That’s not exactly a benefit to the store.

ha ha they’re all blond moments now…

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

So I decided to highlight my hair by adding a little blond.? Mom pulled my hair through the cap (which brought her tremendous joy, I’m sure) and put in the highlights.? Um… there’s quite a bit more blond than I anticipated.? Not that it’s a bad thing.? I always looked good as a blond.? Come to think of it, I’ve been thinking about going blond again… so maybe next time I’ll do the whole lot.? The only problem with a frosting kit is that the cap gives you instant roots — you don’t even have time for your hair to grow out some before you have roots.

Gotta figure out something to do with Gage on Saturday.? Mom & Joe are having the breakers re-wired so the power’ll be off.? Gage doesn’t handle that well.? He walks around trying to turn things on and getting upset that they’re not turning on.? So I’m gonna take him out to do something.? Just dunno what yet.

stuff, stuff and more stuff…

there’s a dog in the house again.? She’s a puggle named Petunia and absolutely adorable.? She’s also sweet as hell.

Gage is doing really good in school.? Next year he’ll be in the more advanced Autism class, which is excellent news.? I’m so very excited and proud and all of that.? We’ve signed up for the Autism walk again this year.? We want to make it an annual thing.? Starting the fund raising so we’re not scrambling at the last minute to try to get donations.

Work is work.? One of our more unpleasant customers was in today — skunk lady.? She attempted to make amends for some of the nastiness she’s unleashed.? Alas, she was attempting to make amends to the wrong person.? Which was both disturbing and amusing at the same time.? Maybe she’s sincere.? I’m not sure I buy it.

Searching for a new car.? New used car, that is.? Found a couple of options that look? like they’ll be reliable, budget friendly? and kind of “fit” as far as me getting behind the wheel without needing 25 pillows to be able to see over the dashboard.? Shortness has it’s challenges, you know.

Read New Moon and Eclipse this weekend.? Good books.? Can’t wait to see the movies.? Now I just need to get a copy of Breaking Dawn and complete the series.? I dunno about that whole “Team Edward/Team Jacob” thing.? Frankly, I think Bella should stick with Edward and send me a Jacob.? I’d definitely like a Jacob in my life.? Or maybe an Edward.? Both at the same time could be interesting, too.? LOL
