Things to complain about

[EmoFox]

The thing is, thats the only apartment he goes into. I dont think its a case of him not being trained. I think a lot of the time they mistake him for their cat (because tuxedo black&whitea all look the same) so they're inconsistant in chasing him out.

How does one train a cat not to go somewhere? Cats do whatever they want. XD I am grateful that my cat at least comes to me when I call him. XDD


My complaint...

Cleaning up the kitchen after my roommates again. Well, this time I am leaving all of their garbage. It is strewn all over the floor. >_> This is the second dishwasher load I am putting through. I may have enough dishes for one more after this. *sigh* When they ran out of plates/bowls, they started using whatever containers they could find instead of washing dirty ones. There was stuff dried all over the dirty ones. Oh well, at least when I do dishes, I rinse off the crap on them before they go in the machine. They don't do that, so nothing gets clean.

Also, they had friends over last night (again... they have friends over every night) and they all got HAMMERED. One guy puked AAAAAALL over the bathroom. Aja told me that he cleaned it up, but when I went in there this morning, there is still vomit on parts of the toilet, in the sink (it isn't draining properly), on parts of the floor, one of the rolls of TP is ruined and it is on my package of wipes (I don't like dry TP). UGGGGGGHHHH!!!! My landlady is supposed to be coming over today to try and fix the bathroom sink (it was broken before the vomit) so I sure hope my roommates finish cleaning up in there like I asked them to before she comes.

I hardly slept, and I think I A-bombed the exam today. Not to mention I've got another exam tomorrow. Well, on the bright side it's going to be my last exam tomorrow and I think I can manage it unlike the amount of hieroglyphics I had to go through for several days on the exam today...

Okay, so, my upstairs neighbour cancelled her shaw, because she doesn't work, and she fell behind on her bill and when she gave them a sob story about being sick and being disabled and blah blah blah they said "That sucks, but you still have to pay your bill." Her room mate ordered Telus instead, but they fucked up the installation thing that was supposed to happen today. So she asks if she can borrow my internet for a couple of days while Telus gets their shit together.

We are with shaw. Which means we're subject to the usage cap (which, amazingly, we have yet to go over). They're heavy gamers and downloaders. One of the reasons she fell behind on her shaw bill so bad, was because she's also paying off a $3000 gaming laptop she bought from easy home. They play WoW, have an Xbox Live account (which I'm assuming would use up bandwidth, but I dont have an Xbox so I have no idea), her bf plays a bunch of other MMOs and the room mate who ordered the telus also plays online on their PS3. And they download a LOT of stuff, or so they tell me. The room mate is the only one who actually works, in fact her employers took her to Hawaii for Christmas. So the two of them are at home all day every day, playing games and downloading stuff.

She said she needed the internet to pay her bills via online banking. I asked why she didnt try her phone (HTC Android) she said her phone wouldn't download the flash for online banking. I have an LG Android. We use the same bank. Did I buy that story? no. I asked why she didn't try the library. She said she did but she got kicked out because her 2 year old (who is very clingy) screamed the whole time. Which I also didn't buy, because my 2 year old has been to the library with me a few times, and he gets really excited and runs around screaming while I'm there. Or at least, he's not usually quiet. And I've never been kicked out of the library. Even with him AND Miles (now-five-month-old) crying.

...So i told her no. For one, I don't like being lied to, and for another my internet is slow enough as it is (and I'm not sure why...), and I *really* don't want them playing WoW etc on it.

Does this make me unnecessarily mean? or more importantly... do i *really* care?

No! Good on ya!

At the rate I'm going, and with the success levels I'm seeing, my Christmas baking is going to be ready to be given to people somewhere around March. =P

WHY U NO BAKE RIGHT GINGER COOKIES???

Not at all. Good on you! It is your Internet and you don't have to share it if  you don't want to. I wouldn't share it either. You don't need Internet to pay your bills... go to the damned bank like responsible people.

I think your picture needs a little more along the lines of

Get a motherfucking job like an adult and pay your bills like a responsible person should.

Paying off a $3000 dollar laptop?  Really?    how dumb can you be for financing a laptop and pay interest on something you already can't afford in the first place.  Duhhhh this is why people are broke.

[Drake Wingfire]

I seriously didn't know you could finance laptops >.=.> I always bought mine outright.. AFTER saving up money.

[EmoFox]

Oh, but it gets better; she cant work because she was on blood thinners, because she gets bood clots. She's off the blood thinners now because she's trying to get pregnant. Not even kidding. She can't handle the kid she has, but she wants another one. Alao apparently ADD is grounds for disability. And not having the self control to *not* tell your new boss to shove it is a persistant barrier to employment.

Anyway, where i was originally going with this is, she spends her welfare money terribly, bitches about not being able to afford anything, but she has a fuckin brand new gaming laptop, so does her bf, they have a ps3, an xbox, maintain WoW accounts... but she cant pay her bills on time? I have to admit, it makes me feel better about my irresponsible impulse buys. Especially when you factor in the age difference; i just turned 22 last month. She turns 26 next month.
/rant.

As for financing lapfops, you can from certain companies. The only time i've ever bought a computer was one of my irresponsible impulse buys. Bought it for Jesters because we were gonna be apart for a  ouple of months and wouldnt have has means of communication otherwise. I also used my rent money to do so, XD

[zenia]

I financed my laptop from Dell. I just finished paying it off. :)


Ugh. Someone turned the heat up to 25c. Too hot. I have my window open and fan on to cool my room down.

Cockblocked!

I go through all this trouble tonight just to get laid, I buy him dinner, a couple beers, take him out to a nice movie. Then he tells me he doesn't want me over because his room is messy and he can't have guests lest his mother make him clean it.  >:(

I am such a loser.

All that effort, I'd think you would at least go in with a backup plan.

Complaint:

Christmas is 5 days away and I haven't done any shopping. I suspect my day off this week will be a hectic mess.

[Tef]

Don't worry, I haven't even started, and I'm procrastinating on the shopping. xD
