Why does the predictive typing thing on the new iOS take up 1/2 the screen? It's impossible to click on forms or zoom out or anything. And I'm too lazy to look but I'll just assume there's no way to make the fonts smaller because Apple

Tap and hold "The" and slide it down, and it'll collapse; you can repeat the trick by grabbing the little "handle" and sliding it up. Or you can go to Settings > General > Keyboard and disable "Predictive", which gets rid of it altogether.

My phone and my child's downloaded iOS 8 last night! ...but I'm on metered internet and it ate about 15% of our bandwidth because Apple thinks that a wireless connection = unlimited data. Bleh. It could at least have waited for 2 AM, when I get my "overnight megabytes".

My boss called me in to lecture me about calling out sick one day last week.
We ended up having a nice chat and he wasn't actually mad.
Still, I was uncomfortable for a few seconds and that is unacceptable.

I bought a new white dress shirt for an interview (because my other one got stained), and after ironing it and hanging it up tonight I noticed a small spot, which I tried to dab out, then rub a little. However I forgot that I'd just shined my shoes and my hands were dirty, so now I have a dark spot on the sleeve of my white dress shirt.

I either risk wearing the shirt and hope I don't have to take off my blazer, which is not going to happen, or wear a blue dress shirt with my dark blue suit, which is taboo.

I'm starting a diet today and it loving sucks. It'd suck slightly less, but I'm the person primarily in charge of cooking dinner for my family :saddowns: So I get to stare at a pan full of delicious frying chicken with the knowledge that I can't have any.

Edit: And my router is being an absolute poo poo and its pissing me off and making me want to grab a sandwich and stuff my face to distract myself from this lovely slow internet :cry:

My friend and I are completely unable to drunkenly cook lemon bars. No, not even from a recipe. Or another recipe, or another. It ends up either dry, inedible crap or syrupy inedible crap. I just want to drink and eat some lemon bars, ok? They don't even have to be really good, the alcohol takes care of that.

Also I have to open at work the next five days because I've risen too high in the chain of command at my lovely job. Why couldn't I be stupid and useless? Or new and clueless? Then I wouldn't have to work so much. Or open all the drat time. poo poo, guys, just let me come in at 9 when surgery starts, ok? I'm the nurse, I'm the only loving nurse, let me sleep in a bit. But nooooo

If I have to calm down old ladies while they're sobbing and holding their poodles, 7 am is not optimal for me. I'm just saying. Christ almighty, don't clutch your dog and cry hysterically at me before it's loving 8 am. I cannot deal with that.

I got yelled at a lot by a dumb customer at work today. I'm in a position that it's entirely meaningless to get yelled at by this kind of guy, and this kind of poo poo doesn't nearly compare to being through basic training but it's like "come on bro, we were told to do something different. Chill while we fix it."

I asked a client to find and unplug the white cube-shaped piece of equipment with our logo on it so we could troubleshoot a problem, and he kept telling me he was doing impossible things with it (like plugging it into a power strip - it doesn't have a power cable).

We spent about half an hour on this before I figured out that the object he was interacting with was in fact a foot-long triangular piece of clear plastic we used to send people as packing material.

It was a lot of junk food and booze, but I was going to a party, and anyways the 30 pack of ice cream was 60% off.

Maybe I did I eat 4 of the ice creams but gently caress you they were tasty.

I have a washer and dryer of my own in my nice townhouse, and I have a decent-paying job as a nurse, and I pretend to be enthusiastic about picking up all the overtime I can get, but in reality I'm getting worn down. I gave up my sleep for the day to do laundry because I literally wouldn't have time otherwise. But when they need me, I can't say no, and these paychecks of mine are getting fatter and fatter. But my chores and sleep are suffering. :negative:

I decided I wanted to buy all my bridesmaids those really large Pashmina scarves for their gift, and also to wear to my wedding if it gets chilly. But all the ones I can find have tassels, and I don't like them quite as much with tassels.

Today is my birthday and the number of birthday wishes sent to me by automated systems (e.g. Google, Facebook etc.) Has so far significantly outnumbered the number of birthday wishes from actual humans. Though everyone important to me did remember and I even got an awesome dinosaur candle holder as a gift.
