Get rid of your annoyances here before the weekend!

I can't stand people who want to protect their private life so much it becomes ridiculous. It's going to be about THE shower again.

So I went to Target to print the baby registry since they are registered there. It was impossible to find their registry. Weird. After 10 min, I call the Registry Hotline and the guy tells me the registry is set to private so it can't be viewed or printed at the store.

Stop being ridiculous! you're not Brad and Angelina. If you want people to buy off your registry, don't make it private because it's a PITA.

Re: Get rid of your annoyances here before the weekend!

  • That's probably one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard!  Why would you even do a registry to only not allow people who want to buy you something off of it (hence, the whole reason for a registry), if no one can view or print it from the store?  Makes absolutely no sense!!  Ask for Gift Cards if you're so dam concerned..

    My annoyance right now is that my stbxh is constantly writing stupid effing things on my fb posts... stay off my page and leave me alone!!!!  I should just de-friend him I suppose and this would solve my problem...

  • BFF-if you continue with the Bridezilla tendencies, it's going to be a LONG 8 months until your wedding.

  • A CW gave me some files that she said were relevant to the subject that I am researching.  I am tearing my hair out trying to find any reference to said subject, but I can't seem to find it.  Doesn't help that they're in a foreign language.  *grumble grumble*  I asked her if she could clarify what about them was relevant, and she said that she didn't even know what the files were, just that she found them while searching.  I actually pounded my fists on my desk out of frustration.  My other CWs probably think I'm BSC now.
  • My current annoyance is the fact that my bank account is overdrawn by $107.00 because of stupidity. STUPIDITY! AH.

    So I have negative $107.00 until next Friday. AND we're driving to visit family in Michigan tonight/tomorrow so this should be interesting. Hopefully BF has some money for gas because it's a 10 hour drive, and I'm not looking forward to driving because my back hurts SO.EFFING.BAD.

    I had to make an appointment with my neurosurgeon whom I haven't seen in 4 years since I had surgery last. On the phone, the receptionist was like "I think you're having problems with your L3 and L4 again." Nofuckingshit, really? That's why I called you 4 weeks ago for an appointment but you refused to get back to me. Oh dear baby Jesus God, please make the stress stop. My hair is falling out.

    But life is special. Yes, it is. Special.

    Any way the wind blows...
  • STBXH doesn't see the value in our daughter having any of her own space when he gets a place of his own.

    I am tired of job hunting. I just want this to be over and move on with my life.

    I'm having symptoms that point to either PCOS or some type of reproductive system cancer. I'm terrified, feel alone and my appointment isn't until Wed...which is admittedly fast for my doctor, but I'm freaking out in the meantime. I hate showers because of this because I'm getting tired of scooping the HANDFULS of hair out of the tub afterwords and I'm near tears on it and the cramping is painful. 

    My car is a pile of crap. I am literally waiting for the taxes to come in to get something else and the place I live is giving me 3 days to fix the muffler on it. Guess what? Taxes won't be in for 2 weeks. Oh, and it's been in negatives here or near negatives and my heat in the car no longer works.

    I think it's naptime. I'm done with today. Can I have permission to just sleep through the next few months until I wake up and everything is better?? :(

    Are you on the pill or under a buttload of stress by chance? I *just* went through the same stuff. My hair was falling out, vicious cramps, weird periods, just obnoxious. I went to the ER and the OBGYN twice because of it. I just went off the pill for the first time in 5 years and it's getting better. Stress and hormones can be a doozy. Feel better and good luck.

  • Work has been a nightmare this week. I was hoping to have fun with DS all weekend and not do any work, but that might not be the case. Oh well, I'm glad I have a job.:) Plus, I get to pick up DS tonight. I haven't seen him in a week. Trying to make the stress go away!
  • Awww Happy2BeMe, I hope you start feeling better soon! Good luck with your appointment Wed. I know it's hard, but try to relax. Hugs!

    I am annoyed that it is so slow at work. I am also annoyed that every time I look out my cubicle window it seems to be snowing harder, and the cars seem to be moving slower. It looks like we will be doing a whole lot of nothing this weekend with all this snow. 

    I am also annoyed with the word "why". If I don't hear that word for a very, very long time, I will be a happy woman. :)

    I wouldn't change a thing...it's all led me to you.
  • My circulation problems acted up yesterday and now I'm at the dr office waitin to see if there is a vasodilator they can give me. My toes went numb then warm too quickly and the blood has pooled in my toes. I have painful red sausage toes that kept me up crying all night. It hurt to walk, even in my Uggs and I'm going as my man friends date to a party tomorrow and I want to be able to wear respectable shoes Sad

  • I'm super annoyed with the weather this week. I hate driving in the snow and have thus taken most of the week off, which you think would be good but it's not because I don't want to use my paid leave to just sit on my ars at home. So frustrating.  And I have a wedding to go to this weekend that I'm not sure I'll even be able to get to since it's out in the stix.  Argh.

    I have a Mirena IUD (for the last 4 years) and stress, however no more stress than there has been for the last 2 years. However, I have a strong family history of both types of cancer as well as the PCOS too. There are some other symptoms too, that point more to it, just don't want to display them all out there.

    Thank you. Is it sad that I almost want to make my mommy come with? LOL

  • BAHA.  This reminds me of my EXH.  He wouldnt use his last name on his registry because "everyone" would be looking at it.  I wanted to smack him and tell him he wasn't a celebrity or even that cool to begin with.  People are dumb!

     I genuinely don't understand why they made a registry then! Does it even exist if no one else can see it? Ha! How dumb.

    Definitely not! I would be having my Mom come with too! I hope you get some answers soon!

  • My only annoyance is that we are getting snow tonight and tomorrow, and while everyone is happy that is happening on the weekend, that does NOT make me happy because I work weekends! And since I am a nurse, I have to get to work, so I am going to have to get up tomorrow and drive in snow, which I hate.

    Well, my H is annoying too, but he is out for now, so I don't have to worry about him. I am going back to my therapist next week, and I am hoping that before long I will have some kind of better plan/timeframe in mind for when I am going to drop the d-bomb on my H. I am still in the I-don't-want-to-be-here-but-don't-have-the-balls-to-tell-him-that state of mind (also know as One Hot Mess), but I am starting to see that it is going to be important to tell him sooner rather than later. I know that there is no "right" timeline for this, but I would love to have a crystal ball right now.

  • My annoyance is that I am sick of hiding crap from people...especially XH and my mom.

    So mom - no you don't know everything and neither do I, but shut it! I have to get out of here. On that note:

    I FINALLY found, have paid for, and will be moving to a new apartment with DD soon. And XH, if you have cyber stalkers, I don't care, there you go. I will let you know when and where we move when I am good and ready!
