I need to make an 88 on my physical science final exam just to scrape through the course with a 60 average (the lowest possible passing grade).

Yeah, that'll happen when they install an ice-skating rink in hell.

Complaint # And another one down, another one down, another one bites the dust.
Note: This is not as much a complaint as it is an update on an earlier complaint.
So, anyway, New Guy was showing waaaaaay too much interest, and my counter attacks of flirtatious interest coupled with just plain ignoring him was not working fast enough to scare him off, so it was time for the often quipped about plan b. I called him and asked him to get some cocoa with me. The call, as I recall went something like this:
NG: Hello...?
D: Hello, is this New Guy?
NG: Yes, this is New Guy.
D: THAT'S AWESOME!! Wanna get some cocoa with me?
NG: OK.
So I went and got some cocoa, and it went ok, I guess, But one good thing, that was about two weeks ago, and he hasn't talked to me since. Mwah hah hah haaaah!

so to get this straight, you were'nt interested in a guy who's after you so you asked him out?

it's shit like that that makes it so damn hard and stressful to know where you stand with a girl...

which is a problem that's just come around again for me, and with someone i didn't expect who i hadn't seen for a while... it just came out of leftfield... this is going to end bad, i need my stronger emotions; hate, malice, anger, angry indifference, angst, and fury, to take love out back and beat him unconcious and lock him in the broom closet somewhere in the back of my mind.

then we can get on with my life.

I really liked him... But if I tell myself I didn't, then I don't have to feel as bad about him not calling me. (supposedly, anyway)

There should be an electric shock button that people can press when they feel themselves being attracted to someone. Then they can stop themselves just before sanity gives way to madness. "Why, hello there..." Brzzzzzp.

Complaint: I could have worn jeans to work today. But I didn't.

Edit: Sanity doesn't give was.

the only reason he probably didn't call you is because he's trying not to look desperate and too egar, in terminal fear that if he calls you too soon he'll blow the whole deal...

this is why women live longer then men.

BECAUSE EVEN THE ONES THAT LIKE US CAUSE US NEEDLESS STRESS!!!

It's a conspiracy.

copmlaint : #293842038

i turned down a job a while back that offered twice the money i earn where i am, because a. it for only 6 months, and i said I didn't want to leave a job where i was able to work on my book and that shut down for two weeks giving me two bonus weeks of holidays.

a couple months back i was asked not work on the book here anymore, and just now they've told me they're planing to cut one of the weeks out.

i'm just a big ball of stress right now waiting to explode, the only thing in my life going for me at the moment is the fact that my sudden extreem diet has made me less 'ball' shaped... so i guess i'm just a big oblong of stress at the moment.

[Dorothy]

Let's switch jobs.

[barend]

Brzzzzp.

ooh

[Dorothy]

barend - Sorry about your job. Sounds like you could use a day like I've had. My office's server crashed, and then my computer froze up, so I can't get any work done. Pretty much I've just been answering the phone, and having a day-long coffee break. Minus the coffee. Heavy on the break.

Edit: Forgot to complain - Um... yellow. I hates it.

admitadly my job IS one big coffe break.

it was a dream job...

now i feel like an overdressed hobo.

[Dorothy]

OOOoooh... hobos are cool. And overdressed hobos are even cooler.

I'm totally an overeducated librarian-looking answering machine. Cheer up, though. Because... it's almost Christmas?

Christmas worms...? Are they cutting back your time off this year?

I get to go and put up my tree tonight. If I can find a cable that will make the cable that lets us watch cable longer. If not then I'll spend the evening hating my cable company.

Complaint: cold. its real bad.
