What's wrong with this picture? Good morning.

pirategal03

Morning.  My morning has been pretty boring, especially compared to y'all.

I'm training a new guy at work, so this week is going to be boring too.  But, at least it's a break while I'm waiting on people to get stuff together for me. 

I've stayed up way too late the past few nights watching the Olympics, I'm probably going to crash early tonight.

cheeseandrice

ha. I've been told to do the whole 2-3 Advil every 6 hours, alternating with 2-3 Tylenol every 6 hours, so drugs every 3 hours.

OMG lbarr, you win for shittiest morning (among a pool of worthy candidates, for sure).

Your FI sounds like my H when he's not feeling well. It's bad. He gets so pitiful and refuses to go to the doctor because he doesn't want to 'clog up' his med record. (I seriously do not understand this man's brain.) It reminds me of that DayQuil commercial (I think?) where it says it's strong enough for the man-cold.

H had the stomach flu one time, and ran into the bathroom to throw up in the toilet, and in doing so he broke not only the lid on the tank but the seat off the bowl as well. In one fell swoop. He was like "Errrp, I'm gonna puuuuuuuke!" stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, thump, crash, crash, crash, barf. I felt bad because he was sick, but I couldn't help but giggle. I don't think I could ever break a toilet on accident.

Good morning!

Girlie - your morning blows.  I hope it gets better. 
DMills - RAGE.  I would be so pissed
lbarr - MORE RAGE.  I would be beyond pissed.
Sesh - you would think they might provide adequate computer equipment to their employees, since, you know, it's a COMPUTER BUSINESS.  jeez.
BK - {{hugs}}
Brandi - yay for home from deployment!

We had a nice light rain and distant thunder all night, so I slept like a rock for the first time in a very long time.  We had the windows open, and the cool air and rain were so soothing.  Today will suck, though, since my boss has been off for a week and a day and there's a crapton of BS to deal with.  I feel worse for him than the rest of us.

ZombieNates

Les summed up what I was going to post, so read hers. Seriously, boo to bad mornings, yay to brother coming home, fuckyouverymuch to stupid coworkers and mistakes.

Now I feel bad that I'm having a great morning, which mainly consisted of not wanting to die when I woke up--I think I finally got enough sleep last night. Also, I did 30DS yesterday and I'm feeling it today, but not as bad as I thought I would. I'm sure that will change on day 3 or 4.

Silly Les. They don't give us fancy anything here. Although, they did try to upgrade my computer to the newer Windows/Office version but I refused and said if they installed it when I was gone then I'd end every sentence in my copy with an exclamation point (I wouldn't actually, but it really, really annoys them when people use a ! in copy, so they got my point).

lbarr, that's a pretty awful night and morning. H is pretty good when he's sick but he will always refuse to go to the doc. Even when his mom's cat tore his lip open he was all, "I can just stitch it back up myself, or glue it." Um, no. Get your ass to the ER.

[QUOTE]Holy balls.  I hope everyone's day gets better.  But, yeah, lbarr, that was pretty funny; sounds like an episode of Everyone Loves Raymond or something like that. Brandi, yay for your brother coming home! I was so pissed when I got to my car last night.  I parked in a lot with very generous sized spaces and the dipfuck 2 cars down parked so crooked that the dipfuck right next to me parked crooked so I could barely get in my damn car.  I left a little note for the first crooked car<strong>. The only thing I had to write on was one of those little cards you get with flowers so one side says 'I love you' and the other side says 'Learn how to fvcking park. Thanks.'</strong>  I hate shitty drivers/parkers.   In random news, I'm excited to watch women's gymnastics tonight.  The men sure lost it.

I want to park crazy just to get one of these now.

There's this dickhole who parks directly next to the dumpster behind our apartments, so that you can't get in and throw your garbage out. A. Why would you want to park directly next to trash? B. Use common sense, FFS.  So we just put our garbage behind his car--not touching it, just lined up behind it. Yeah, the next day the super was painting "no parking" stripes in that spot to make sure people could access the dumpster. Idiot.

Oh Mehg, I'm dying at "I don't think I could ever break a toilet on accident."

Must.Not.Laugh. in front of new guy.

I just registered for the 2013 Disney Princess Half Marathon and am so excited. My training for the Wine & Dine starts here in a couple weeks, and I could really use some music suggestions. My running playlist needs to be revamped, especially since I'm going to start going on longer runs (over an hour). I just downloaded "Black Betty" by Ram Jam. I like fast music that I can get lost in, but have pretty much exhausted the usuals (Buckcherry, Kelly Clarkson, LMFAO, Pitbull, Lady Gaga, etc). 

Suggestions, please?

Yes and no. At times I wanted to punch Jillian in the face, mainly for her comments. It just annoyed me when she called the girls "buddy" and stupid stuff like that. But overall, I FELT it, so I like that part.  With Denise Austin, I love her personality, but I don't feel like I'm working as hard, if that makes sense. Or maybe Jillian scared me into sticking with it. IDK.

ETA: Mehg--I just saw an ultimate running playlist on Pinterest--let me see if I can find the link.

I broke the toilet hose once on accident. But in my defense, it was pretty much ready to burst. Unfortunately it was during our housewarming party and everyone was drunk. H and 2 friends tried to fix it. The problem - the little room where the toilet is, is about the size of a phone booth. The 2 friends are well over 6' and H, while not that tall, is pretty broad and they all tried to squeeze in there to "fix" it. Me being the only sober person there, I had the fun task of figuring it out.

lbarr088

Jillian can be really scary.  I think I do better under that type of pressure when I work out.  I really should suck it up and try a bootcamp class but I hate working out (really flailing around) in front of people.

Megh, look up SuperMash Bros or DotCom.  They both do "mashups" of Top40/Dance/Songs of yesteryears.  I lerve them.

jennamarie10

 I love the parking note, especailly that it said I Love You on one side. ha.

Brandi0714

When I pulled into work a little  bit ago the grounds maintenance crew was here working on the grass.  One of the guys had a weed eater and I'm not sure what he was trying to do but he started walking around with it running up on his shoulder.  He turned and it hit a tree branch causing leaves and bark to fall on his head.  His reaction was pretty hilarious.  I'm still getting a good chuckle out of that one.

dmiller9274

lbarr, sorry your morning was so sucky, but I couldn't help but to giggle.

Also, I'm not sure how, but I've still been successful in avoiding FB Timeline. I hope that they forget about me and never ever change me over. 

KateJ10

Mehg- I really like Robyn for more fast-paced songs. 

JFC you guys get your shiiit together!! Talk about some terrible mornings!!

I am at home, I have a dr's appt later this morning that I am nervous for so I can't really enjoy being home. 

celticmyss

I'm getting switched to Timeline as of the 4th. I flipping hate it. Lbarr that was seriously both the worst and most hilarious thing I have ever read. I hope your day gets better and you don't have to deal with too much whiney man syndrome tonight.

Starmusica

Ouch- what a shitty morning for some of you!I feel bad- my morning is actually going really well thus far. I feel a bit more like myself today even though I am still on the bland diet from hell.... and traffic wasn't bad....

I thought EVERYONE had to have timeline by now?!

Starmusica

ah. Personally, I don't mind it that much. It's a big of a pain but there are some cool features.

dmiller9274

FB has been really pissing me off lately. I'd like to say that I'd just delete my account if they force me to move over to Timeline, but it's free, and I like being nosey, so I'll just whine like a little biiiiiitch and do what they force me to do lol.

[QUOTE]It's 2:45 am and I'm on my 2nd cup of coffee already.  That's very wrong.  After saying in last nights night thread that Meathead has an iron gut, he woke me up an hour ago to go outside because he's got some major issues going on.  Guess who's getting plain white rice and pumpkin for breakfast?  That's wrong.  And I just walked into the front bathroom and stepped in a puddle of water.  I looked up and see that the ceiling is soaked, starting to bulge and warp.  Don't know if it's a busted pipe or from all the rains over the weekend which would mean a roof issue.  I fear that's going to be a very expensive wrong.  On the bright side my coffee is really good, Meathead is behaving normally every other way and I never really liked the paint color in that bathroom anyway.  How's everyone else?

<div>We used to have a cat named Meathead!  He was the coolest cat ever.  We lost him a couple of years ago.  He was 13, acted like a kitten.</div>

ZombieNates

Lbarr-very true. She is scary.

I don't get the timeline hate, TBH. My parents had to get it and you'd think it was the worst thing that ever happened. They claim it messes with the games they play.

I really don't hate the timeline I just feel like everytime I have something settled FB is all like "Hey we are switching everything again so now you have to add more pics and remember to check your privacy settings!!! Woo!"  It's really not a big deal, could be the PMS talking.  I just need chocolate.

LesPaul

I might need to swipe some of those little cards from the florist that say 'I love you' or 'feel better soon' to write obnoxious parking notes. 

Does 30DS have an option to play without the audio cues?  Or am I thinking of P90X? 

[Deleted User]

I bitched about Timeline, but honestly, now I don't even remember what the old format was like.

Also, I bitched about Comcast on Twitter and now I have Dish Network messaging me about their deals. Annoying.

dmiller9274

For me, I just really really hate change when it comes to technology. I swear if Michael wouldn't force me to have a smart phone, I'd still be rocking the old school flip phone, hell I'd probably still just use my pager. I'm that person that has a WII loaded down with all the original nintendo games because that's what I learned first. I hate GPS and would rather look at a paper map. I'm seriously a 70 year old woman. 

Brandi0714

I just looked and I got timelined today, too.  Now I have to choose a cover picture. This is too hard!

ZombieNates

I think it's an old people issue, Edie
 
Dmill--you're just like my husband. He wouldn't get rid of his old phone until it was able to implode, even though he was eligible for an upgrade. That kills me because I usually try to force them to give me an early upgrade.
