Irritants

Today I’m irritated by too many things. Just wish that things could run a little smoother more days than not.

My web provider

Not to mention any names (coughipowercough), but after 5 years of excellent service you are truly dropping the ball.

Not only have you billed my debit card for a domain that I no longer wanted, yet had it set at ‘manual’ payment – you hit my debit card anyway. fail

I go to check my web site (Burgundy Realm not blogspot) today for comments, and can’t access my site. I can’t even access my billing page. I call customer service. Always pleasant since they can never hear me. I have to spell everything. As in e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. fail

They play some awful music FREAKING LOUD while you are holding   – which I guess is in hopes that you’ll be screaming when they answer after being deafened while on hold.

Now I can get into my site, but not the dashboard? fail

My old job

When I started working there, I worked for a month before being paid. Why? They hold back a check, and I started working at the beginning of the pay period. My last check was for the last two weeks. Hello? There is a check missing somewhere in there for about 76 hours. I sure would like that one, please. fail

The employment agency

I end up driving to Portsmouth to go to their office. I sign in and they have me sit at a computer and fill out information, so forth. I got a couple of hits immediately, which is nice, but I could have done all that from here. Not miles from home, on someone else’s computer? WTF? fail

At least I could print off my stuff for free. nice

The idiots at the laundry mat next door

Wonders never cease to exist. The people are parked in the drive. Behind them is the street with ample on-street parking. In front of them is the parking lot. You can, well hopefully you can, see straight ahead that there is a parking lot and more apartments. Stairs and everything. Nope, these people want to park right there in the drive so they don’t have to walk.

This means that no one, that lives here or those who are smart enough to use the parking lot, can get in or out. fail,fail and fail

Me

Okay, so I tend to lash out (duh). We all know by now that my roommate G is a drunk.

Well, G had gone a whole 5 days without drinking. Two of those because he was sick. Yesterday was the deal breaker.

Yep, he had a few before he got home yesterday. Drunk and angry don’t mix with him. He isn’t physically violent, just takes out on verbally whoever is around.

Okay, so I hear things like:

“I can’t fix your problems Kay”
or
“If you’re going to stay with me this summer you have to find a job Kay”
or
“I thought you were going to fix dinner Kay”
or
“Why am I the only one that cleans around here”

I probably should have used and instead of or because I heard all of those an more last night.

Okay, so eventually I lash out. I can only handle so much of a fit before I walk away or lash out. I kept walking away and he kept following me around. So, what had happened was…

Sooo, I blurted out that I wasn’t planning on staying with him this summer. That I wasn’t even sure I was going to stay in New Hampshire much longer and that Mike was flying up to see me this weekend. fail

I’m good that way. It worked and he left me alone.

So, yes, Mike is flying up here Sunday but not to see me. He is working on a job here and I asked if I could see him. I truly adore Mike and have missed him.

I have no idea what I am planning to do as far as staying here, but would like to give it 6 more months. If I can hang that long.

I am planning, if I stay, to find work and move into an apartment with J, who will be an excellent roommate. J is a good Christian man, solid morals and doesn’t drink. Oh, and an awesome friend.

If I don’t stay I will try somewhere else. Maybe in Indiana with my friend T, or go to Texas where my family lives or even go back home to be with my children and grandchildren.
