Snogged: An Insatiable State of Mind

Okay...I can forgive children for thinking I'm pregnant. They don't know any better and often times, they're pretty oblivious about how babies are born anyway. My 4-year old neighbor thinks girls get pregnant from eating.

But adults? Seriously. Don't fucking ask me if I'm pregnant. I have a damn muffin top...that I'm trying to correct thru exercise, nutrition, and all that shit.

I'm not pregnant and I'm not going to be so eff the fuck off.

This rant has been brought to you by stupid, fucking people on Facebook that call themselves my friends.

I am so frustrated with LJ right now. I know they are working to resolve the issue with the "connection reset" page, but they are a bunch of bozos if they think hitting the refresh button helps.

I've been trying read and comment on friends' entries, but keep getting locked out.

I apologize if you have posted something and I haven't gotten a chance to comment.

*kicks LJ*

I shouldn't be surprised that she responded to the message I sent her.

( Her follow-up is behind this cut for those who are interested in feeling rage-y )

Honestly, I can't even bring myself to respond to her.

All I can do is defriend.

And I'm thinking it might not hurt to outright block her.

I'm going to start by saying that I normally get along very well with my co-worker. Part of this is because, she is essentially the only person in the office I can consult with on cases on days that aren't Tuesday mornings when my supervisor comes. Part of this is because I genuinely think of her as a friend.

However...

Today, I wanted to sucker punch her in the face.

We had a staff meeting in the Madison office (basically, this is where Voc Rehab Central is and us outlying counties drive there for staff meetings once a month.) I was the one to drive because B drove last month.

After the meeting, we decided to grab lunch and B asked another counselor to join us. The agreement was the other counselor would follow me to the restaurant.

Admittedly, B knows Madison that we were on better than me so I obviously relied on her for directions. I will also admit since it's probably relevant, that I have some anxiety with driving due to the accidents I've been in and the fact that I don't like driving in big cities. Madison definitely qualifies as a big city, but the area we were in wasn't so bad.

We got to a stoplight where I had to make a right turn. It's legal to make a right-hand turn on a red light in Wisconsin, however, I had someone following me so I wanted to be respectful and wait before I pulled out. B pointed out that I could make a "right turn on red" and I respectfully declined.

When we got to the restaurant, we pulled into the parking lot and she had the audacity to tell me that I seemed "scared" and she said she could drive from now on.

I pointed out that the reason I waited at the red light was to give the other counselor a chance to follow us instead of getting 3-4 blocks ahead. I also said that I didn't appreciate her being a backseat driver.

Ugh!

Believe me when I say that I hope I never have to follow her car anywhere. I'd be bound to get horribly lost!

Why the fuck can't we just care about people? Why the fuck does shit happen? And most of all, why the fuck aren't politicians giving a rat's ass?

I've always believed that homosexual couples should be entitled to the same damn rights that heterosexual couples have. And I hate how much this country really sucks sometimes.

I really loathe coming up with titles for fics.

They always end up feeling really lame to me.

ABC has decided not to pick up Ugly Betty for another season, and I find that super lame.
First, they had to stick it on Friday's death row instead of letting it lead in Grey's Anatomy and then, they tried to fix everything by moving it back to Wednesdays but clearly any heals that might have been made from the move aren't worth sticking around to witness.

Why must they cancel good shows?

The trend I've been seeing with this latest glitch has been me not getting comments that are specifically on my own journal, but I appear to getting comments from the communities I post too.

It's weird and I don't like it.

Fix this, LJ!

Seriously.

My brain and my muse are clearly not working in sync at the moment.

I've been trying to work on the Angel/Lily crossover fic (which is really more a friendship thing than a smutty thing as it turns out) but I feel like I'm running into a wall.

And then I've got this great idea for a Willow/Spike/Angel multi-chapter but I can't even bring myself to sit down and write the first chapter.

*sigh*

I suspect July is not gonna be a particularly prolific month.

Warning: Annoying People Rant Ahead.

So the internet in my apartment is currently down and to keep myself from going crazy, I headed down to the campus library to check LJ and Gmail and things.

It occurs to me why I like my internet at home so much.

Because it does not feature an annoying boy sitting next to me with headphones who has the most obnoxious laugh in the entire world. It makes me wince and cringe each time he does it. And he mumurs to himself about whatever it is that he's watching, which is also ticking me off.

Gah!

I need to get out of here, dudes!

And I want my own damn internet to be working when I get home today.

ETA: I'm back home and my internet is back on. And the only sound I hear is NPH reading off the Top Ten List for Letterman. It's lovely :)
