Anyone maces me as a joke is gonna love the retributional joke I lay on their ass ... the kind that has me laughing at their wheelchair-rolling ass every time they come around.

It was Jo, he's like a little brother to me, he's a bit of a twat sometimes but makes up for it tenfold the rest of the time.

I'm having an extremely sharp pain in the lower left side of my abdomen. It had been hurting several months ago, and I had gone to see it checked on with a regular dr and obgyn, they even did an ultrasound and everything, but said I was fine and that they didn't see a cause. Now it's begun to get worse and it even starts spreading to my left leg at times. Depending on if I sit or stand for too long. I found a holistic Dr. that might be able to give me a little bit of advice...and natural help. Hopefully she can at least alleviate the pain a bit...I'm starting to get a bit antsy and scared. Appointments tomorrow.

Well, that move was miserable.

I was supposed to be out of my apartment by the 1st of April at six PM. The plan was, get up at 6 am, have everything moved out by 3, and then clean until 6pm. Well, I got up at 6 am, but it turned out no one showed up with a vehicle until 11 am. The truck I rented didn't show up until 3 in the afternoon, even though I had booked it for 1 pm. The guy who was helping me move my larger stuff didn't show up until 5pm.

To add injury to insult, I cut my hand open on a razor that someone had left under the seat at 6pm, and had to bandage it up. While I was doing that, I accidentally locked my keys to my old apartment inside of my work, and couldn't get in to the apartment to clean.

Fortunately, my landlord really, really likes me, so it's all cool. But fuuuuuck.

Just so you know antibiotics don't work on viruses, at all.

I'm uncomfortably low on my Klonopin, and don't want to have to spend the money to see a doc just so she can write me a refill script for a med that I've been taking for a year. It's a pain in the ass, not being able to have any refills on the original script.

My mom's GP would write me a refill without an appointment, but he was just diagnosed with end-stage cancer and is spending his last days with his family (as he should).

I'm highly annoyed.

I'm not looking forward to scheduling my classes for next semester...which I will now have to travel to the main campus of my college for, the extra distance is especially annoying because I'm terrible with directions. I really hope I don't get lost trying to get to my classes next semester.

Altemese · 04-04-2010, 06:07 PM

Yes a GPS for me is a must, I really need to get one soon.

That sucks. I really hate it when a plan goes to pieces like that. I'm glad the landlord is understanding. Sorry to hear about your hand; hope it heals up fast.

I've been moving this past weekend too. A while back I decided I didn't want to have to deal with the one-day-move ever again, so I have a bit of an overlap on my leases. Got all the big stuff moved Saturday with a rental truck and a pair of paid professional movers. Besides paying for the truck rental, I paid $150 plus a $40 tip to watch those two guys haul ass toting exercise equipment, furniture and boxes from one place to another. They did all the big stuff and a lot of boxes in 3 hours, and they really humped it. Best money I've ever spent on moving.

But I've been moving boxes full of little stuff for days and today there's some dishes and clothing and a computer and some other stuff to pack. And I have to decide how much of the porn collection to throw out and how much to keep; think I'm gonna get rid of about half. Then there's the food in the refrigerator, then some plastering, painting and cleaning.

Gahhhhh! I HATE MOVING!!!!

I'm tired of clogged sinuses, sinus headaches, drainage, and Paxil withdrawal symptoms.

Ouch, my sympathies. That medication seems to have worse withdrawal symptoms than the "heavy" drugs. Had a lady friend who discontinued her use of it and I had to stay with her for a week due to the bottomless depressions and nausea she got from that, until she represented a human being in a fashionable order again.

Tam Li Hua · 04-05-2010, 08:25 AM

^ Yeah, no kidding! I didn't know a drug with such mild effects would be this damn hard to get off of. x_x;;; I've so far been able to avoid the suicidal thoughts and nausea, but I have pretty much all the rest. Geez, getting off Prozac was easier than this. x_x;;;

Thank you for your understanding, btw. =]

Razeal18 · 04-05-2010, 07:12 PM

i love the fact that i am being paid to go to school, and being the tolken white guy at this establishment. But I really hate that most of the work is neophite and boring me to all hell. I am also not suppose to talk about "dark things" because its not business proffetional. Bullshit rules and a decrative nuce but hey ,,, it beats working for mcdonalds, and i get colledge creds and an internship over the next year.

DRM · 04-06-2010, 04:25 PM

I'm tired of my dad insulting me and never saying sorry.
> : (
I'm not fucking stupid because I thought since you would be gone for two weeks it would be okay to drive one fucking mile down the road to get some things we needed. Maybe you should have shopped better you ass hole.

Underwater Ophelia · 04-06-2010, 05:11 PM

Do you have your license?

Kalitrima · 04-06-2010, 07:25 PM

I've had issues with my stepmom for years. She basically scapegoated me for everything her son did. I don't hold anything against him. . . he was given a free pass, and he took it. But it was to the point where he did something, admitted to it, mentioned that I was in the area, and I got in trouble for not stopping him while he went into the next room and played video games. Scot free. I've always wondered how she managed to not discipline him while I was with my mom. Well, she and Dad got divorced a long time ago. Then, a few years ago, he told me they were remarrying. A week before it happened.

Is that normal?

I mean, did I miss a memo or something that it's okay to not tell the person she targeted that you're planning on getting back together with her? He wonders why I have issues talking to him or trusting him. It's mainly because of THAT. Just THAT, and the fact that he knew she was making me take the fall for everything her son did, and he did NOTHING. Ever. I've only seen him stand up for me once, but I'll save that for another rant. It just. . . It blows my mind. And this was years ago, when I actually needed him. When I needed his support, because I was going through a hard time. I get the feeling he wouldn't have told me at all, if he could have gotten away with it. Just dropping it on me a week or so later that 'Oh, hey, me and Diane got remarried. Hope you don't mind.' I know I wouldn't have been able to object, but he just. . . he decided not to tell me at all until the last minute imaginable. Mind you, he had been living with her (or with his mother, he doesn't make enough to live on his own) for months, if not a year, beforehand. And I still hated her to the point where he took Jamie and I to his mom's house so I could spend time with my stepbrother and dad. Without being around her. Because she's a bitch. I swear, I make a point of not holding grudges. . . but I hate that woman with every fiber of my being. And I love my dad, but I don't trust him at all anymore.

. . . If this is a bit much for a rant, tell me, please. D: And I'll keep it to simpler stuff in the future.

Solumina · 04-06-2010, 08:02 PM

A rant is a rant, sometimes they're quite long.

I love the venue for my wedding, I love the owner of the venue, I love their chef, and I love their servers. I just happen to really be getting frustrated with their wedding planner. She still hasn't gotten in touch with me to let me know what is going on with the contract (if we can just use an email contract, does she need to mail me one, or if the person who is paying needs to be the one to sign the contract). At least I set things up with the owner so we are on their calender but he doesn't really deal with contracts so I really do need to hear from Erica. She is great face to face but every time she is supposed to get in touch with me (or my mother) it takes way longer than it should and I don't like having to wait around for people.

Kalitrima · 04-06-2010, 08:07 PM

Ah, I meant the content of my rant moreso than the length. But if it doesn't bother anyone, then I'm glad.

Is there any way you can get in contact face-to-face? I know nothing about planning weddings, but if it seemed like someone was procrastinating or avoiding contact, I'd advise trying to get face time. Or talking to someone who works with or above them to find out if it's a matter of workload or not. . .

Luv2H8 · 04-06-2010, 09:27 PM

My internet is getting freakishly slow.

P.S. Solumina- Hope your wedding goes nicely. I don't know you, but I thought I should say that.

Kalitrima · 04-06-2010, 09:38 PM

I remember my dad saying something about how the internet is faster in either North or South Korea. No idea if he's right, but it would seem that if you want adequate internet service (I've been having similar problems, with pages not loading being the larger issue), move to another country. D:

And I feel like a dick for not adding that onto my post. Yes, Solumnia, I do hope it goes well. And I hope you can get in contact with the planner.

Luv2H8 · 04-06-2010, 09:42 PM

Mine is just serious lag and an assload of wait time for videos to load.

Ben Lahnger · 04-07-2010, 07:32 AM

So many things have conspired to slow me down of late ... and I'm still MOVING! Argggghhhhh!

MissCheyenne · 04-07-2010, 08:33 AM

I really wish my packing would do itself. I hate moving house.

Saya · 04-07-2010, 08:10 PM

Gah, I gave my sister all my money so she could get groceries last week, she said she`d give me back half on Monday (she bailed me out before so thats why I said she could keep half for good), its Wednesday (well Thursday technically) and she still hasn`t paid me back, so I called her and she said she`d pay me back tomorrow. >.> I had to get mad at her to get her to agree to send it now (I'm out of tampons, I really need it!), and now she's wicked mad at me. But I really really needed it!

korinna5555 · 04-07-2010, 08:29 PM

I'm in the process of hiring a lawyer to fight an old employer. They have been saying things that are untrue and that they are not legally allowed to say, to the extent that I've become unable to find a job. They have basically blacklisted me, so I'm taking them to court. It's a huge fucking headache.
