What irritates you?

I miss my freetime :frown:

I remember when I used to have it. Those were the good days :smile:

The last time I had any real free time I was in Jail. I think back to those days once in awhile just for that aspect of it if anything. :eyeroll:

My high speed internet being out since later last evening. Actually just painfully slow

Out cold this morning.

Worked for about 10 minutes at lunch time.

If its still out when I get home tonight, Comcast will be hearing from me.

I'm sure it's the cold...but I didn't think it would be out or painfully slow for all that time.

Warm hugs to CM and OT. And since there's two of me, it's a double hug :wink:

Awww, thanks lilslim. I love baby hugs. :smile:

OT I'm sorry about your loss, my thoughts are with you today. Kinda sounds like a lot of use are having an off day today.

I too got some bad news today that has me reflecting back on life and how it really sucks sometimes.

Lets all hope we have a better day tomorrow.

Thanks LAMommy. I hope so too.

big, BIG hugs to you OT! And ClueMaster, I hope whatever is dragging you down today, begins to fade into the past tomorrow...

I am not always good about sharing the things that are hard for me -- here or elsewhere. Don't want to be thought of as a "whiner", I guess. But, lets face it - these trials and tribulations that we all deal with from time to time are part of what makes each of us, *us*.

My hard day for the year was yesterday, the anniversary of my Dad's death. The year he died was after the rehash at Como. The whole medallion hunt is tinged with sadness and loss, and at the same time bittersweet....I have found such love and caring through the cooler crew.....I can't find the words.

I remembered, Mom...but didn't want to say anything just in case you hadn't remembered yet. Big hugs to you.

I think you're right - that whatever we've been through becomes part of who we are.

OH MAN... :frown: :frown:

I THINK WE NEED A BIG GROUP HUG...

Sounds good to me! Hugs are always nice.

(((((Group))))) :smile:

Hugs to all! Tomorrow WILL be a better day!

females... :chagrin:

Hey I resemble that remark!

I have found such love and caring through the cooler crew.....I can't find the words.

Couldn't have said it better mom. Sorry about dad :frown:

Thanks for sharing and sending out good vibes. You too slim.

I guess misery loves company. :sheepish:

Not you...

Sorry....

I guess I should clarify that...

I dont even know where to begin...

<sigh>

irritate: yesterday's funk seemingly continuing today with an hour and half drive in to work and being late for the first time.

enjoy: making the decision to do my best to not let myself have a bad day, and then being lifted up by all the kind words in here, today is going to be a good day, for me and hopefully the whole crew!

Irritate...bald tires on my Ford Expedition...supposed to put a penny in the tread to check the depth, I can't even figure out where to put the penny! Slicks! I'm ready to race at Indy, but what a miserable ride to work...now I have to go get new tires, which costs much less than an accident...but still costs...oh well!

Posen I'm there with you my front tires on my car have little thread left but its kinda fun being able to slip and slide all over the place :wink:

:ooh:

I'm in on that group hug...did I miss it :frown:

I know exactly how you feel mom :frown:

I'm terribly sorry :frown: ~hug for you~

We should call this thread Chicken Soup for the Cooler Crew Soul. :grin:

Anyway...I had some nasty over night bug last night. :frown: I have a heated mattress pad and had it cranked way up but was still shivering so badly my teeth chattered! :worried: And an awful head ache.

Just dragged myself out of bed about half an hour ago and so far so good! I can't remember the last time I was sick, and I don't want to go through that again.

I was supposed to watch one of my grandsons today and couldn't do it. :frown:

I've just been informed that I'm being required to celebrate valentines day this year....

:coolfrown: :worried:

and so the trap begins to shut..... :worried:

amen.

I've been convinced that I want to. And was planning stuff already....

but, she called anyways, and her words were: "you're required to celebrate valentines day, this year, even if you dont want to"

I think I should be scared.

Eh, sometimes being single ain't so bad.

Lonely on valentines day? Pfft, I'm to freakin busy to notice anyway.

BAH! Valentine's Day was created so women could get guaranteed presents and men could get guaranteed nooky. Don't buy into the hype, Nick. :wink:

I had alotta fun, being alone and bitter last year....

I went to the MOA, and watched happy couples, walking around, and hated them. :coolfrown:

I've gotta figure out what to do for Valentine's Day. It's hard now with our situation, but it'll be fun this year, being our first Valentine's as a married couple.

that's where the being busy part comes in.

It'd suck if I had time to think about it. Since I don't, it'll be "What day is it again? Oh, that's why the rest of my coworkers haveta go home early"

and men could get guaranteed nooky

This is exactly why you should buy into it IMO.

well...

I just got a call...

they've decided to un-hire me....

this blows.

I dont understand why they even went about giving me all this information to learn, (which I have) and then change their f'n minds a week later.....

:angry: :angry: :angry: :frown: :frown: :frown: :coolfrown:

I had to cover my nose and mouth when I read that!!!!!!! I'm at work with people around!!

LMAO - I wish the guy would want to do it because he loves me NOT because he has to.

- my mom gave me a heart diamond necklace during Superbowl - thats what I got/get for v-day.

sorry bout the job thing :frown:

hitting a stop sign with the truck.

<slams head on desk>

this f'n sucks....

I've got two places that I interviewed at, after NWA, who told me that if it didnt work out, I should talk to them again....

I talked to them again...

They've hired other people...

Do i have something written on my forehead in permanent marker that says "I'm a freak, and a let down, dont hire me!"?

I guess I still have Valentines day to look forward to...

<sigh>

with my luck, I'll get another phone call about that, in like a half hour.

I think I'm just going to unplug the phone.

That really sucks WN!

that really sucks nick. Sorry :frown:

I'm picturing the florist delivering 50 dozen roses to your house on Valentine's Day in 2054. :grin:

No one should ever work.

Work is the source of nearly all the misery in the world. Almost all the evil you'd care to name comes from working or from living in a world designed for work. In order to stop suffering, we have to stop working. By Bob Black

Taken from http://deoxy.org/endwork.htm

Several things.

1. Cluemaster, keep your head up, buddy. You're a source of strength for a lot of people and your goofy smile helps ward away the cold. That sounds kind of gay. I'm glad Kitch told me that and I didn't say it myself.

2. I talked to KC's boss today, under the auspices of getting KC some help. Joel's not lying, the guy really is a tool.

3. OT, He lives on in your children and in your heart. Sure, he wasn't around yesterday, but...wasn't he?

4. Irritates: I work down the STREET FROM ME2! And I don't get a Vino lunch??

5. I am the walrus. Kookoo ca-choo.

6. Valentine's day sucks for everyone. Too much pressure.

Valentine's Day does not suck for everyone. If it did, every day would be sucky here. :eyeroll:

Inks always gave me a rose for each year we were married on our wedding anniversary. The year it was 24 years, that was 2 dozen roses.

The house smelled wonderful!

My allergies kicked up so bad that I ended up with a full blown, 2 week allergy sinus thing.

At my request, he doesn't do roses anymore in that quantity. One at a time is good enough.

After all, it's the thought that counts...not the number.

For Bear :smile:
