Have you ever had one of those days where you hate everyone and everything? I am having one right now.
• I hate the woman I met a party yesterday who made it clear she didn’t think I was worth talking to after I said I didn’t have kids. Thanks, bitch. Two years of infertility hasn’t left me feeling crappy enough. And by the way, if the only way you can make conversation with another woman is if she has kids, I’d say you’re the one who is lacking, not me.
• I hate the stupid “Report Suspicious Activities” messages they put on the highway message boards. It makes me feel like I’m living in 1984.
• I hate that I live 25 miles from the closest grocery store that sells organic fruits and vegetables and food that isn’t all completely processed.
• I hate that there are people who I think I’m weird because buying organic and natural foods is important to me. I’d like to point out that I’ve been saying trans-fats and high fructose corn syrup are bad for you for at least 10 years now. Not looking so crazy anymore am I?
• I hate that gas prices are so insanely high.
• I hate that the newspaper is filled with depressing stories about how pretty much everything, everywhere, sucks for everyone. And there’s nothing I can do about it.
• I hate my stupid tooth socket which is still hurting, and worse, triggering my TMJ, making my jaw ache like you wouldn’t believe.
• And most of all, I hate insurance companies. I hate USAA for raising my rates 128% because I had one minor fender bender at 2 mph and scraped up a guy’s bumper. Not even dented – just scraped! My car was fine. I hate MetLife dental for sending me something that appears to say they aren’t going to cover the tooth extraction. But I called them before the surgery and they said it was covered, so they will pay. And I hate UnitedHealth for not covering fertility drugs.
Ok, I think that is enough hating and feeling sorry for myself for one day. Thanks for listening.
Sounds like a pretty valid list of things to hate. I feel you particularly on the insurance company thing. Could there possibly be more things they won't cover?
I agree, a VERY valid list of complaints! Although we don't have the freaky billboards yet. And just so you know, my mom taught us all about healthy diets,... including organic foods, and preferably not cooked mushy foods. So you sound perfectly normal to me!
What you said, although I haven't seen the scary 1984 billboards either.
!. LOVE that I found you in your new digs.
2. LOVE your new digs.
3. Am HAPPY to rip some whup ass on that idiot woman creature for you.
4. Newspapers are the dead medium-- welcome the good news of blogs and the internet community!!! Cause we focus on the stuff that MATTERS!!!
Visiting by way of Miss Zoot. As usual, she did another fun, sassy design. It looks great.
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who has their I hate the world and everyone and every thing sucks days! And yes, the "report suspicious activity" signs are so ridiculous. Doesn't that go w/o saying? And who conducts sordid business of the side of I-95. Sheesh! It's not like you could do a quick getaway with the way traffic is around here. Anyways, great blog! :)
Hello! I haven't been here before - it's great!
And that was a very legitimate list of complaints, I agreed with them all - especially the stupid woman.
I love the new design, Zoot did a great job :-) Gonna change you in my bogrol!!!
Some days (weeks, even) are just there so we can appreciate how great all the other ones are. But when we're in the midst of the shitty days? They're neverending-- rant all you want.
found you through Rude Cactus (in case you care)
ditto on most of your complaints, especially that rude woman. I get that A LOT, in addition to the head tilt and pity sigh when I tell them I am not married eitrher
luckily I live in Vancouver where organic and natural foods abound - YEAH! - and we don't have those scary billbords ... yet
p.s. My first dog was also named Seamus
I feel ya. I get the cold shoulder all the time because I'm not married. If I'm not part of a couple, apparently I have nothing of value to say.
