GET A NEW TOWEL RACK! THEY'RE CHEAP AND EASY TO INSTALL! SPACKLE THE HOLES FROM OLD ONE! MAKE SURE YOU USE A HOLLOW WALL SCREW ANCHOR!

I'M HUNGRY!

I HAVE SPENT ALL DAY DEALING WITH MORONS WHO THINK I WON'T KNOW THEY'RE LYING TO ME. THEY DON'T KNOW THEY'RE DEALING WITH ME - WHEN I WAS A DIVORCE LAWYER I WAS THE ONE PERSON YOU WOULD NOT WANT REPRESENTING YOUR EX. I KNOW ALL THE WAYS TO GET PEOPLE TO DIG THEMSELVES INTO GREAT BIG PITS OF LIES THEY CAN'T GET OUT OF.

MY MOM IS HAVING A GRADUATION PARTY FOR ME AND I REALLY, REALLY HATE PARTIES THAT ARE FOR ME, AS WELL AS PARTIES AT MY PARENTS' HOUSE. I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I DON'T WANT THIS PARTY BUT APPARENTLY I DON'T GET A VOTE.

THERE'S A FUCKING MOUSE IN MY CLOSET!

THE STORAGE COMPANY WHERE I HAVE MY THINGS IS SHUTTING DOWN AND THE CELL NUMBER THE OWNER GAVE ME IN A MESSAGE HE SAID WAS URGENT BELONGS TO SOMEONE ELSE--EVEN THOUGH THE RECEPTIONIST SAID IT WAS HIS. THE FAX I KEEP TRYING TO SEND THEM IS BLOCKED BY BUSY SIGNALS AND I HAVE TO LEAVE IN A FEW MINUTES!

THE FILLING I'VE HAD REDONE SIX TIMES IS DEGENERATING AGAIN AND I MAY NEED A ROOT CANAL!

THE KITCHEN DESIGNER STILL HASN'T GOTTEN THE INSURANCE FORM TO ME AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO SEND IN THE APPLICATION TO THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY TO GET THE WORK DONE UNTIL I COME BACK FROM IRELAND!

SOMEONE HASN'T FUCKING TAKEN THE HINT HE'S NOT WELCOME!

REMEMBER THIS? IT'S RESOLVED! OMG! YESTERDAY THE HOSPITAL CALLED ME AGAIN WONDERING WHERE THEIR MONEY IS. UNDERSTANDABLY. SO I CALLED THE INSURANCE COMPANY AGAIN, AND I MUST HAVE JUST GOTTEN THE LUCK OF THE DRAW THIS TIME (OR MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE I SAID PRETTY CLEARLY "THE HOSPITAL IS ABOUT TO SEND ME TO COLLECTIONS"), BECAUSE THE REP WAS THE MOST FRIENDLY, HELPFUL PERSON I'VE SPOKEN TO, AND WITHIN THREE MINUTES SHE SAID SHE HAD FOUND MY REFERRAL AND RESUBMITTED MY CLAIM AND THAT IT SHOULD BE PAID BY THE END OF THE WEEK! OMG!

I HAVE TO ASK THOUGH: WHY COULDN'T IT HAVE BEEN THAT EASY THE FIRST FOUR TIMES I CALLED?!
