This would be a shouting thread but I just don't have the energy. *sigh*

*whispers* "what's happened, honey?"

posted by essexjan 31 July | 12:53

Mah. I mean meh. Nothing. I'm just tired and PMSing and sad about my bee bush (stop that snickering!) and the house is a mess and I have no clean clothes and it's time to pay bills and...

*sigh*

Sending hugs and good vibes your way, Speck.

Okay, that's just so cute that I think some sugar water just ran out my ears.

It's not a bee bush, but it IS a Chuckle Patch.

OH, thanks rainbaby, I'd forgotten all about that show, and it was once one of my favorites.

Feel better, Specklet! (with the sugar water running out of your ears, look out for the hummingbirds!)

And, vex - the PMS thing!

You guys are so nice!

But... Doesn't anyone but me have anything to whinge about?

posted by Specklet 31 July | 14:47

I do, specks, I'm just keeping it bottled up so I can die a little more inside.

posted by crush-onastick 31 July | 14:50

Oh, do. But would rather focus on someone else's misery!

posted by mightshould 31 July | 15:05

Hiya Specklet! I hope you feel all shouty-about-good-things soon!

posted by richat 31 July | 15:31

What crush said. Plus holding it in helps fuel my martyr complex.

Hang in there, baby!

posted by jrossi4r 31 July | 16:02

Yes! Hurry up and start being shouty-about-good-things soon!

But, as you want whinging...

FUCK! FUCKING FUCK FUCKEDY FUCKING FLAT AND THE FUCKING ROOF. SO MUCH MONEY AND THE WHOLE ROOF NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND I'M GOING TO HAVE TO RE-MORTGAGE TO AFFORD IT AND IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S AN ASS-LOAD MORE EXPENSE COMING AS WELL WITH THE ELECTRICS.

YAY I HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO SHOUT ABOUT NOW:

I JUST HAD A MEETING WITH MY BOSS THAT MADE ME FEEL A WHOLE LOT BETTER ABOUT MY JOB SECURITY AND AT SOME POINT I'LL GET HIRED ON AS AN EMPLOYEE INSTEAD OF JUST CONTRACTING AND I'LL HAVE MORE OF A MANAGERIAL ROLE AND SHE COMPLIMENTED ME AND I TOLD HER I WANTED TO BE HERE SO YAY!

THANKS, GUYS!

posted by Specklet 31 July | 16:25

OH! OH! SO NOW IT'S ALL GOOD, IS IT?! WELLLLL THAT'S THE *LAST* TIME I DO ANY WHINGING FOR YOU! HMMMPH!

posted by TheDonF 31 July | 16:46

SORRY, DARLING, I WAS JUST SO HAPPY!

SORRY YOUR ROOF SUCKS!

I was on an airplane yesterday and this very unattractive man whose nose must have been broken a dozen tiems in the seat across the aisle was travelling with his really hot wife and he leaned over and pointed to my binary tattoo and asked "Hey man is that, uh, in 'binnary' or somethin?" and I said "Yes" and his wife squealed "DALE HOW'D YOU GET TO BE SO SMART" and he said "I dunno it's the only thing I remember from that computer class we had in rehab" and that made me all depressed because jeez how come guys like that have hot wives and I just spend all my time at work?

I'm not sure where I'm going with this, but rest assured, specklet, your day will improve.

You could have a hot wife too, if you weren't so hung up on that whole intelligence thingy.

I can just see it: you with a buxom German girl with skin like new cream. "Binär?!" she'd squeal. "Oh mein Gott, cmonkey, wie Sie erhielten, so intelligent zu sein! Eeeee!!! Lassen Sie mich bitte auf Ihrem Gesicht sitzen!"

posted by Specklet 31 July | 17:30

Oh man the day that happens I am so taking a picture and putting it on a postcard and sending it to someone.

posted by cmonkey 31 July | 17:45

Cmonkey, you make the money and i will bring the hotness. i'll like get a trainer and stuff or just make myself do it. There is even considerable grey matter and practical wit in here somewhere...
mumble mumble...
is this a shouting thread yet?

That Reagan mask thing, though? Never. No go. Even on high class designer drugs, i don't think it's possible.
