I broke my phone. It still works somewhat, but I'll have to get it fixed since it's a pain in the rear end to use it like this, and the guy I asked for a quote to fix it still hasn't gotten back to me yet.

It's going to be cloudy and in the 70s all weekend and the immediately back to 100. I'm afraid my house boys will collapse from all the frond fanning they will do to keep my wine orgies comfortable.

Malachite_Dragon posted:I'm not entirely sure if this is a 'problem' or not but according to speedtest.net my internet speed has gone up by a factor of loving ten Update on this. They really really did bump me up from ~15mbps to ~120mbps without charging me a single cent more a month! That's good! Unfortunately, right after they did that, my connection started being randomly spotty as gently caress; sometimes it'll stay solid for hours, then it'll flicker intermittently and never stay up for more than ten minutes. That's bad! Time Warner sent a dude over to test our router and it's not our router that's the problem! That's good! It's the ancient-rear end cable in the wall that can't handle the new speeds, so they'll have to send someone later this week to yank it out and replace it. That's  !I will credit them at least with wanting to fix the problem, unlike when we had AT&T who just told us "Haha tough poo poo, downgrade your plan" while charging us ten bucks more a month than I pay now for 6mbps, but we never got more than 2.

I'm really, really hoping this doesn't come back to bite my wallet in the rear end. What the gently caress, Time Warner?

kannonfodder posted:I feel like you need to start an E/N thread about dealing with your mom, you sound like you have a lot to vent about. I don't like to whine, but I think at a certain point if you don't vent, even online, you'll explode. It'll just get harder as she gets older and less able to do things. A coworker of mine told me how she hates her direct boss because he bitches about taking care of his mother-in-law nonstop, but I reminded her it's hard to do the "oh I am a live-in nurse plus work and my own family" poo poo without wanting someone or something to blame. I imagine parents of teenagers feel similar too: you bust your rear end all day and come home to someone loafing around who doesn't do poo poo, in your eyes, when they are actually busy but you just never see it. In the case of that boss, he was balancing his own store, trying to help run a store without a manager, take care of his kids over summer break, and his mother-in-law, who was in and out of the hospital, couldn't watch the kids, and overall the dude was struggling. But he couldn't get mad at the kids, or his work, but his mother-in-law he could, somewhat, in venting about her when she wasn't around. Anyway kitten Varys is gone. His five foster siblings seem to note that they are down one, but we are taking on another this weekend from another foster who is having issues fostering cats and unrelated kittens. And I didn't cry at the vet. I think the fact I had the paperwork all set and the techs were nice and got me in and out of the waiting area quick helped. But it never feels normal to leave with an empty carrier from a vet office. Here, something unrelated to cats: my friend married a manchild and moved to another country to be with him. Three years into the marriage and he spends most of his days calling in sick to work and sleeping or watching movies, leaving her to work fulltime and run all the errands, deal with her own sick feline, and try to keep the place clean. She is superstressed and there's nothing I can do about it.

I haven't been getting enough sleep lately because I've been trapped in the godless hell that is my in-laws house. My husband recently lost his job due to downsizing, and I can't support both of us on my income because I only work part time, so we're stuck here until one of us gets a better job or goes insane or kills someone. Everyone in this household is an early riser, including my 2-year-old niece. Unfortunately, I work in a bar and sometimes don't get out of there until 3am. Everyone else wakes up at 6am. I haven't slept at all today because there's just too much noise, and this is the second weekend in a row that's been ruined for me like this. I'm supposed to go to a friend's baby shower and a concert today but I really just want to curl up somewhere and die.

Earplugs, noise-cancelling headphones, white-noise makers, or play soothing music at a low volume. Any of those will work wonders for when people are being loud around you.

I examined the cable they laid. They literally just laid it on the ground, attached it to whatever the main cable is, then punched a hole in the wall next to my window leading out onto the patio where the cable snakes along the concrete before being pulled under my fence.  Would it have killed them to have at least *tried* to protect it from the elements? I thought this poo poo was usually buried. And I just know they're gonna charge me for it because it wouldn't be Time Warner if they didn't poo poo in my cornflakes somehow. Malachite_Dragon has a new favorite as of 08:34 on Jul 26, 2015 |

I got a Tuft and Needle foam mattress a few months ago. At first it felt too firm, but now that I've gotten used to it all other beds feel like crap and make it hard to go to sleep. I went on vacation for a week last week, the above ruined a lot of it.

Summer in a college town means, among other things, local restaurants cut their food deliveries because they're not selling meals to hungry college students. The place we picked for dinner tonight was out of several things and made me a Frankensalad. Would've worked if they hadn't used the salty chicken from the sandwich line instead of the unsalted chicken they normally use on salads. Also, the ice cream place closed early because they were out of ice cream. That's never happened before.

I overslept this morning and didn't get into the office till almost 1pm. I just missed everyone else leaving for lunch and they went to my favourite restaurant. I ended up reading my book with a cup of coffee in one of the indoor gardens but it wasn't as quite as good.

I'll be having a baby in two months and people are giving us a poo poo ton of gifts so we can't buy any baby stuff until we're done receiving gifts since we'll have too many duplicate There's so many cute stuff we want to buy. I guess the sometime slightly less cute stuff people get for us will have to do!
