  • Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

    They told me I'd probably have to take a course in a local institution. My employer had mentioned it probably wouldn't be an issue as long as I could graduate by December. I just asked the registrar's office about my readmission and they told me it's too late to enroll again for this semester though =/ I'm really worried now.

      Probably too late to register for anything stateside for the fall semester, but there may be a crash course available over the winter break.

      Would an accredited distance learning course work?

        Hard to say. I've never transferred to or from other universities so I'm not sure where to look that up right now. I was told to speak to the dean though, so I'll take absolutely anything he'd say "close enough" to.

          Waking up to find spiders in my shower two days in a row.

          Not cool.

            I was just taking with one of my friends that used to live in Arizona about how I had to shower in the dark Monday because the bathroom lights died. He said he could never do that because the the showers attracted spiders.

            Of course when I replaced these lights for the first time since moving in, I found out the end light shared a circut with the others and by screwing in a new bulb three of the other "dead" ones instantly lit up.

            Fuck you, bathroom lights.

                My friend in PHX told me recently that spiders are least of his worries. Apparently it's fairly common for some places to become infested with Scorpions. Trouble is, there's really no way to exterminate them aside from removing all food sources from the property, sealing off the house for 6 months and letting them starve to death. Damn bastards are resilient.

                On the flip side... I now know the perfect way to get back at someone I hate.

                "Oh... I heard about your house. Scorpions huh? In Massachusetts? What are the odds? Good luck with that. See ya!"

                  Remind me to never live in those places.

                    I have a plumbing issue.

                    The other day I came back from vacation and noticed my toilet was flushing slow. It was still flushing so I didn't pay it much mind. The next day, I noticed that not quite everything was making its way down the tube. I made a note to call maintenance and get it fixed.

                    Fast forward to yesterday morning, toilet is still acting up but I'm getting ready to get to work, and I pull the shower curtain back to jump in the shower, and OH MY GOD. What I saw nearly made me pass out. The toilet had backed up into the tub. Called maintenance. Left for work.

                    I came back last night and the lid of the tank is off the toilet. I use the toilet (number 1) and notice it still flushes slowly. I bleached the fuck out of the tub, too. So I have to call the office again and find out if this is fixed. I'm afraid to take a shit lest it happen again. At least today I should be able to take a shower ...

                    As my gentlemen friend said yesterday (and god, I love the pun), "What a shitty way to start your day."

                          Fuck my job.

                          That is all.




                          And no, no pics. It is fixed, I've scrubbed the tub. All is well at home. My job can fuck itself though, and so can my boss.

                            Fucking Stomach Flu.

                            Spending an entire week "firing from both ends" and not able to keep anything down for about 4 of those days isn't fun at all.

                            Next time a friend says "hey come visit me on campus for the weekend" I'll to him to go celebrate himself.

                              My wrist is starting to act up again, and I've a sneaking suspicion that it has something to do with the fact that all my mice are now all about the thumb clicking.
