There is a piece of metal in my tire.
I really want to put this on Instagram but my kid follows me.
It’s 3AM and I shouldn’t be awake but I am.
I don’t seem to be able to make a small amount of chili
Chili batches only exist in the appropriate size to feed a Boy Scout troop. It’s just a fact.
New tiny complaint: I seem to be also lacking a Boy Scout Troop…
I’m listening to the Ask a Manager podcast (not the complaint) and one of the commercials is for a dance fitness routine that will LIFT YOUR BOOTY. TEXT BOOTY NOW TO RECEIVE blah blah blah BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY.
And I hate it. With a burning passion.
I just got another message from my health insurance being like “lose weight with our programs!” and again, so clear that it’s not medically targeted (because I’m not someone you’d target for weight loss) and so you know they’re sending it to patients with eating disorders. I finally exploded on a message to their FB and they’re like “oh, we’re sorry, let us work with you to change it! call us” and it’s like. NO. JUST NEVER SEND ANY OF THESE EMAILS EVER AGAIN.
I am very tired but cannot fall asleep to take a nap.
My children woke me up four or five times last night for Little Kid Reasons. Out of the two things I felt capable of (screaming at them to go the F to sleep and leave me alone OR letting them crawl into bed with us) I opted for the possibly-dumber option, so at one point our whole family of four was sleeping in the queen-sized bed I bought when I was a single person.
I am extra tired today. Maybe tonight is the scream-at-them option.
I’ve been getting these. I got pissed off enough about the last one that I walked into the office of the dude who sent it and offered to throw down in a strength contest. If he loses, he stops sending those to me. If I get another one, I’ll flip his dumb fucking car onto its roof. He responded with the usual “it’s just the system, sorry”, but I let him know that if he’s going to make my life less pleasant, make his less pleasant is fair play.
I really need to get a handle on my temper sometimes.
Best thing I ever did was to block the health insurance company on my phone. No calls, no texts. They have my post office box address and my work address if they need to contact me. It’s surprising how infrequently they actually need to contact me.
So hungry. Slight pukey. So behind on everything
It isn’t Friday.
Had a FB marketplace sale with a guy that ended up being a total dipshit to deal with. Got lost, to the point that I had him park and stay there and send a pic of where he was on a map. He has google maps. We live directly on a main road in a massive apartment building. Dozens of people have found this place no problem. Anyway. Then he wandered off away from his car? Then he was only had $33 and we were supposed to be selling it for $40 So frustrating. I could just TELL from his profile he’d be a flakey weirdo, but the damn area rug was listed so long I was willing to take any bite. Whatever. At least the rug is gone now. It was right at lunch though and meant I had to delay eating and I was so so hungry and just UGHHHHH.
Was being so productive, post lunch have crashed.
… Your place is seriously so easy to find. Reminds me of a person picking something up off of Buy Nothing, who got lost and CALLED ME through messenger. When I ignored the call and waited for her to text me whatever her problem was, she called me again! She finally messaged me that she was lost, I gave her additional instructions, the cross-streets, which side of the street I’m on, what the front looks like, etc. She called me like 3 more times. Girl I’m just trying to offload a muffin tin, I don’t need all this hassle.
Nobody else, friend or BN stranger, has had any issues finding me. I’m right off two main roads. I send a link to Google Maps. At least she didn’t try to sell me candles like the person I delivered items to…
I’m sleepy in spite of extra sleep. There are bugs in my code. I have to do a scary climbing class after 7 today
ETA: jk not extra sleep and low on deep sleep. But I got over 6 and it feels like 4.
It rained but the humidity didn’t break. ;__;
Where I live, these two things are definitely not associated with one another. Rain leads to steam, which raises the humidity to around 1000%.
