Grumpiness in New, Seasonal Flavours

[ryos]

Wood is a renewable energy source. Burning it is entirely carbon-nuetral, since its carbon came from the atmosphere in the first place. Now, if only it grew fast enough for our needs.

(I know you were referring to the fact that Texas appears to be heated by the fires of hell.)

Me? I'm grumpy because I can't seem to get my sleep schedule back on track. Whenever I try, I get hit by a round of insomnia, and suddenly it's 4AM to 12PM all over again.

Hell? Where did you get that idea? Last time i had to ask Satan himself for a jacket!

Grumpy: Hubby got arrested for "bad tags" on his car.  Which is ridiculous, as they are perfectly legal.  Enter the urgent need to pay back bail and get the car out of impound, and we are veritably up the financial creek with no paddle.

Yikes. That's awful. Hope it works out for you guys somehow :/

Grumpy: I appear to have lost all of the notes I'd had for my novel.

=(

[RavenstarRHJF]

Hopefull it will.  I don't imagine it will be any fun at all, but, well... you do what you have to.

That sucks about your notes, though.. unscheduled computer crash?  Hope you can reboot and recover...

[Silk]

Ugh. Good luck :/

No. The notes weren't on the computer at all. I literally misplaced my paper copy. Presumably somewhere on campus, which means I won't be getting them back.

I don't think there was anything written down that I don't remember (I don't think so) but it's irksome nonetheless.

Friday coming home for lunch I forgot that the city apparently decided to make the street I was driving on a school zone during lunch period (for reasons I still don't understand). Hence, I was going 35, and the speed limit was 20, and I got pulled over and given a $140 ticket. So not only can I no longer claim to have never been given a ticket, I have to come up with $140 as well (my parents are making me pay the ticket, which, granted, I deserve, since it's kind of my own fault. Wow, that's a lot of commas).

[Patriotic Kaz]

You mean your parents paid for someone elses ticket (like your siblings) or you expected them to pay yours? Either way seems, from my perspective, odd.

[Andrew the Great]

Yes, my parents have paid my siblings' tickets before, which is why I'm just a tad bitter.

And no, I didn't expect them to pay mine, but it would most certainly be nice to not have to spend most of my paycheck on a ticket.

[Patriotic Kaz]

I've recieved only one ticket and it was for running a red light... 80 bucks

[Silk]

Didn't get paid on Friday when I should've. I'm sure it'll get sorted out, but still. Argh.

Edit: It appears to be all straightened out now. Woo.

[Chaos]

Pretty much everything that could possibly go wrong thus far in the weekend has. Well, that's not true, I suppose it could be a lot worse. But on Thursday I had this lovely image that my weekend would be leisurely, and without carepackages to deal with. I was very wrong.

[Patriotic Kaz]

I had a middle aged guy almost run me over and when i yelled at him he got out and preceded to threaten me. My response went something like this, "My father is a well respected lawyer so if you touch me you better tell your wife bye, because you will become well acquainted with a cell." he called me a pussy and got into his truck.

This is why it's good to know HEMA.  Just in case his father is a well respected lawyer, too.

[Silk]

Ugh. Obviously I'm going to have to lock myself in my bedroom if I want to get anything done.

Why don't I live by myself, again?
