What pissed you off today?

Jet lag being confusing. It didn't affect me AT ALL going east (which is when it normally hits me hardest), but coming back it's screwing with me. Woke up at 5 this morning, and though I welcomed the reason behind waking up then, I couldn't go back to sleep. So now it's 10 p.m. and I'm barely keeping awake.

And I need a cuddle buddy. :(

*cuddles*

I have a weird body clock. I will be wide awake by 9am local time, and usually wake and start the try to snooze thing at 7am local time no matter where I am in the world.

It was kind of fun doing it on base when I was visiting my brother. I would wake up and go for a walk when all the hot army guys in uniform were out doing morning PT. Nothing like a morning walk with a view. :cool:
 
Having to go to a work meeting while on sick leave. Blergh. So I'll dope up on painkillers and hope I won't faint out of pain on my way there and back. :rolleyes:
 
:rose:

H also has this HUGE black dog. I have nothing but the platitude to hang in there.

You've done this before, sometimes that takes an edge off in itself.

Thanks Netz :kiss::kiss:

At the mo I'm struggling with the fact that I know from bitter experience that I CAN get through this, but wondering (again, from bitter experience) why in the hell I'd want to when the pattern is typically two years ill, one year healthy, two years ill, one year healthy etc. Makes you wonder why you bother.

Still, I will no doubt continue to bother, just as I always have.
 
No work, all fucking week. Not one goddamned assignment. NOTHING.

I contact management to ask, and their response? They realise that I'm not up on my education credits and hand me, no shit, FOURTEEN HOURS worth of online learning course that I will get paid NOTHING for.

"I know we haven't sent you any work, thus you won't get paid this week, but here's 14 hours worth of shit work that won't you won't get paid for to make you feel better."

FUCK.

Oh, and the best part? twelve of those fourteen hours worth of courses aren't even applicable to my position. Not a bit. Utterly fucking useless.
 
Getting time off from work to go to a repair shop, only to have the repair guy totally chicken out like a chicken when he saw what i wanted him to hack.

"It's apple, i only work on PCs."

I TOLD you it was a macbook over the phone.

It's three fucking broken wires that need to be soldered back together asshole. What difference does it make that the casing is white?

Grrr. I'm off to buy a decent soldering iron. I figure an evening of practice I'll be doing precision solder myself.
 
Have you see Whale Wars on Animal Planet? Breaks my heart.

Oh ITW...*sighs*...yep.

I saw Paul Watson speak here in Nelson three years ago, at the premier of Sharkwater. He's a heckuva guy. Say what you want about Greenpeace, they're out there, risking their lives, fighting for the ocean, fighting for those who have no voice. They are my heroes. :heart:

If you haven't read it, pick up a copy of Farley Mowatt's A Whale for the Killing.

Their passion is really infectious. The violence is also really, really disturbing. Violence to the whales, obviously, but also the violence that the people sailing the whaling ships exhibit to those guys.
 
Age. <Sigh>

Damnit, why can't my body age at the same rate as my mind? Mentally, I'm still mid-20s, maybe early 30s. My body, unfortunately, believes the calendar, and apparently also believes that being abused by the activities demanded by my immature mind for 50 years or so gives it permission to get old. That so sucks.
 
Family! Arrrgh! So not looking forward to a reunion in Wisconsin. What on earth is in Wisconsin besides snow? All I remember from a long ago visit is snow and lots of it. Presumably there's something else in August?

Yeah. Heat and humidity.
