Life is teh suck today because (a.ka. the official B_tch & Moan thread)

I have been without my truck for three months since it went airborne with me in it. Repairs are complete, but the one part I need is not going to be manufactured till December eight. Any landing you can walk away from is good, I suppose. Thank you, GM, for your incompetence. No wonder your stock has gone from 54$ to 3$. Life is indeed the suck today.

At least you can spend that time watching old BSG instead of driving around

Of course!

Yeah, I’ve seen him three times. XMen 1, 2 and 3. The dude’s got knives coming out of his hands. Freaking, if you ask me…and a little bit showy.

Well, I think the answer to that is obvious, isn’t it? A song about Keara’s pink cherry-covered pajamas is must!!

Freaking? I’ll give you the showy. But dude:

The STUPID Doctor told me today that I’ve got to go in for a spinal fusion within the next 2 months or I risk unfixable damage.

I wouldn’t mind, but I only went in to see him for a blood-pressure check:mad:

Oh my. That does suck. My sister-in-law had that done - she’s done really well since!

Let me just say: Seeing that quote (from your sig) under that photo gave me much more of chuckle than I thought possible after this morning’s cooking frenzy (with additional cooking yet to come). :slight_smile:

Bah! They’re always going on about “irreparable damage” this and “massive organ failure” that. What do they know? I say you chance it. :stuck_out_tongue:

(Seriously, though, that sucks. Get a second opinion.)

Sadly I’ve been through 4 or 5 doctors in the last 5 years who have all told me the same, I was hoping I could hold it off until late next year and get a whole bunch of stuff done at once.

Not the case though.

In good news though I suppose once it’s all done and healed up I’ll be able to take my crutches and wheelchair out of the boot of the car and actually put stuff I want in there.

YEY! JUMP LEADS!

How about a L’ome Arme mass? Nice and simple parody…

…wait, that’s not what you meant? Damn music doctorate and its useless qualities! :wink:

Yikes! I’m so sorry to hear that, Naughtiest Monkey. I don’t know what spinal fusion is, but it sounds invasive, uncomfortable and downright painful. :frowning:

What, will Nog come up or something?

My annoyance is that I can’t seem to get away from work. Of course I’ve been checking my email, and I get an email about a library book that I was going to lend to someone, but that I haven’t finished with yet. I figured, hey, this weekend is perfect to finish it up so that the other person can use the book. But I open my email yesterday to a pissy email about OMG you didn’t leave me the book to use this weekend! And this from a person who I thought had stopped being a drama queen… but evidently that’s not the case. AGH!!!

Leaving aside the whole, I’m sitting here doing research (GWC is my break), really, that email is not in the Thanksgiving spirit. So I write back to say, I’ll leave it for you after Thanksgiving and this person then feels it necessary to go off about how it’s been over a week! since they asked for the book. Harumph.

I need coffee and pie. ASAP. :stuck_out_tongue:

As I say at work (in my own cube, where no users can hear me!) “Poor planning on your part does not constitute ‘emergency’ on my part.” :smiley:

You’re a smart woman. I may need to print that out and plaster above the computer to keep me from throwing fits…

I recommend turning off the email till Sunday. Seriously. Frak them!

except when the poor planner is your boss

Well, I can still drag it out long enough to make the boss squirm. :slight_smile:

you’re lucky. literally 10 min before the end of the day before T-giving vacation we’re handed a 91 question survey and told to do it before we leave

my research tells me that it’s pretty much what it says on the tin.

They’re going to get my spine, and do some sort of medical magic, and stick bits of it together.

I’m too scared to research it any further than that, so there’s probably more to it.
