Just 12 days, and then I'm home. I'm not going to complain about anything for 12 days.
We'll see how this goes.

Dear Sears Kenmore Repair Scheduling,
If I'd been able to tell the computer voice on the phone that I needed to have two appliances looked at, I would have. Or if I'd been able to get your website to take that kind of info. I would have scheduled things there. But I couldn't, so I had to talk with a real human being. Why on earth did I have to correct every single last bit of information with that person after I thought it had already been verified? What exactly is your scheduling system designed to do? If I had the name and number of a competent independent repair person, I would cancel this appointment in a NY minute.

I thought there was a recession going on... WHY won't anyone call me back? I'm TRYING to HIRE you! Are there any landscapers out there who don't have so much work that they don't have to bother returning phone calls? This is ridiculous, winter is approaching...
And Mr. Photographer - a few days has turned into a few weeks, and now you've put me off for a few more days. I want to see the proofs. I need to order pictures for Christmas and for Christmas cards, and I do not plan to be addressing Christmas cards on Dec 20. That's why we took these pictures in early October! I was planning to pay you for the digital image for the cards, but since you've dragged your feet for so long I intend to take a print to work and scan it in using our excellent scanner.
Time is money, people. But apparently no one has the time to take my money?

This is really wierd. I spent at least 30 minutes trying to get the Sears repair to come out and fix what they didn't fix last week. I paid for it, but my washer still isn't working. The system keeps wanting to charge me for another service call PLUS is making me wait another week for the next repair appointment. Ugh! I will never use them again. And on landscapers.....I called one 10 days ago and he hasn't responded. Then I contacted another and was told he'd be out that same day. Here it is 5 days later and I haven't heard back from him, either.

I am most irritated by many dog owners in my subdivision. We have a nice paved green belt. I would say almost half of the owners do not pick up their stupid dog poo. Also almost half of them do not keep their stupid animal on a leach. Their animal may be friendly to them, but not to strangers.

I'm sorry, but you've lost my respect. You lost it about three weeks ago there is no getting it back. If you wanted it you should've been more accepting. I had valid reasons you did not care or listen to me. I gave you the same treatment when you wanted something done. In fact you gave me the silent treatment. How does it feel to receive the silent treatment? It's not fun, but until you realize what your attitude is perceived as I will have to remain silent around you. Your insecurity is very noticeable I would dislike dating you. I mean I would want my space not spending every meal together, and talking to you on the phone every night even though I just saw less than 4 hours ago. I mean really? He is not going to leave you for not spending a meal together. lol
I know you move my tv. I'm considering letting it go home just like the printer which you still owe me $6 for using all of my color ink.
Side note please do not stare at me. It's creepy.
Only 4 more weeks until I'm done with this roommate! I cannot wait. I'm so happy to transfer out, and be a good program at my new school. I do not think living on campus is for everyone. I already knew how to take of myself, the only benefit being close to my academic buildings.

Why am I not surprised? You have never failed to meet my expectations. I set the bar so low...and still you fell flat on your a^^.

I would love love LOVE to tell you that your precious Honors student is becoming quite the drug dealer with the never ending stream of money you like to provide. Why not try asking the right questions?

You are a bully. You can't stand it if anyone else has an opinion. My subordinates may be afraid of you but I'm in a different position. I have options. I could flat out retire, or go to another job. You might scare my subordinates, but all you do to me is p!$$ me off. This is not going to go well. It's not going to end in your favor.
I wish I could audio-tape your ranting. Your boss would be quite surprised to hear how you talk to your people. I really wish I could get all that on tape and send it anonymously to your boss. [Anyone know what technology would work??]

Yes, that's exactly what I want. Exactly.
I need to practice with my cell phone first so I can do it without her noticing.

Sigh.... it's just not possible to get "everyone" together for Christmas anymore. There are too many spouses, in-laws, adult children, etc., for someone to not feel torn. If we ALL don't get together it is not the end of the world. And for some of you who are growing roots - try to budge every so often. And for those who chose to live 2000 miles away - well, we'll share our ff miles if we can. And for those who want to plan things out 9 months in advance - leave me out of it, I'm slow!
