Man the amount of knock offs on Ebay is kind of sad. :/ Never buy a Nendoroid or a Figma from there or at least buy at your own risk. Some sellers even use photos of the real ones for their knock offs!

That's been a problem for me recently too. :/ Trying to improve my Sylveon collection but 90% of the plushies on eBay are bootlegs...

Someone in this house left 5+ strips of overcooked bacon in the microwave. I threw it all out because it was just sitting there in the grease soaked paper towels for several hours at room temp. Possibly even since yesterday afternoon. The microwave stinks now. I better not get yelled at for tossing it out. I'm not sure if I'm more pissed at them leaving it there or at them wasting bacon.
I'm so sick of living with people who leave food out to rot, grow mold, and attract vermin. I've even thrown out moldy fruit, only to have them fish it out of the trash and set it BACK ON THE DAMN COUNTER. Without even so much as a paper towel under it.
I swear sometimes they want to get sick...

[Nachtwulf]

eeewww...

and you know, the mycelium (the actual body of the mold) is spread through the bulk of the fruit invisibly, in an area roughly five times the volume of the visible mold... the 'fuzz' is just the fruiting bodies. Assuming the fuzz is the only mold there is, is basically like assuming the flowers are all there is and the rest of the bush/tree doesn't exist...

only grosser.

Been trying to get work done for weeks but nothing is turning out right. Too cold, can't seem to remember how half the things work, and too easily distracted.

Ugh, trying to crack a game to play is a serious PITA. It's not even me who wanted to play it, it's my mother who apparently only knows like two games exist and she's sick of the other one. Wouldn't even have this problem if my computer never broke and I had to get a whole new hard drive. Also wouldn't have this problem if the video game's developers were so damn greedy and didn't make it so you could only install a game you bought a certain number of times before either having to contact them to reset the code or go out and buy a whole new disc. Set of discs even, when considering expansions.

I mean, I finally got it done. It works. But it took up my entire day today, and yesterday too, and I haven't gotten a chance to play any of MY games because my computer has been working hard to install these. I guess on the plus side I've gotten a lot of my online economics homework done while doing all this, but really that just makes me feel more tired and drained because that stuff seriously turns my brain to mush. I don't even try to understand the readings, I just do the online assignments and keep clicking answers until I get right ones because it's one of those where if you bash your head hard enough against it for long enough you can get a 100%.

I suppose after finishing all this I should feel accomplished and I sorta do but I want to feel MORE accomplished and not the depressing exhaustion that comes with it.

Bad memories being brought up from the past and my best friend is ignoring me.

What a great day.

[Aleu]

Cut my finger, stubbed my toe, slipped twice on the driveway and banged my knee. All before 1pm.

Just...

Blood warning:

So I am sick, got this nasty bug that's going around. Roll out of bed at 1pm and sit down at the computer to check messages when not even 10min after my BF leaves for work, our daughter trips and does a face plant onto the baseboard heater...teeth right through her bottom lip, one nasty one that won't stop bleeding, so I had to call my sister to come take us to the hospital to get it looked at.
After a couple hours wait, they clean it up and put a little polysporn on it and send us home. I am happy that it wasn't stitch worthy, but not my idea of a good way to spend a sick day.

So the only person who is kind and friendly to me in the guild I am in left for a different guild.

I feel really sad and even a little betrayed.


Yeah, it's just a game. Yeah we can still talk. But still.

I feel alone now.. :'/

The side effects of these new meds are driving me insane, literally.

[mpd_84]

Spent about an hour cooking some nice food. Pork ribs with ginger teriyaki sauce and sliced carrots and taters baked in olive oil and sea salt.
Before I can ever taste any of it, my stomach started to hurt. I hope the chocolate milk boxes we just got aren't bad. Or worse, that I'm suddenly developing an intolerance to milk X|

Another night of not finishing my toons runs for love is in the air...stupid maintenance

[Arthur]

I got up early this morning 'cause I couldn't sleep. Figured I'd be able to go on WoW and do some dungeons or some TI stuff..

Nahhhh.

I know why it has to be done. Still just a little annoying... ha..

[Varethyn]

Having trouble logging into WoW tonight. Had to force-quit cos my chat bugged out (couldn't see any text, but everyone could see mine) and then Battle.net sat there. Tried pressing Play, WoW launcher came up and filled, but then nothing. Tried using the regular launcher too, got redirected to Battle.net which continues to sit there doing nothing. This is really annoying the hell out of me, and I'm not the only one suffering from it.

Of course Hearthstone works. But not WoW. GG Blizz.

Im all anxious about this party (#firstworldissues) all because mother-in-law to be goes and does shit without asking/telling us. We didn't want her to do anything. This is OUR party and we wanted to do it ourselves - is that too much to ask? I mean I'm sure shes just being nice in her own weird way but ffs atleast tell us you've ordered all this crap!! Then she gets upset and guilt trip city! God I didn't even want a party...we're only having it because it seems the family wants a party...and its for this reason we are paying for everything ourselves for the wedding so no one else can go do this stuff without us knowing.

I really hate big parties too...lots of people freak me out >< I'm probably just being weird....

That kinda reminds me of when me and my fiancé got engaged. His mother, without telling me, made a HUGE fuss about it and invited everyone and their mothers to their house and made us have a huge party. Hey, thanks, but it kinda freaked me out. Huge crowds of people (ESPECIALLY my fiancé's family members, most of which I hadn't even met before) really scare me. I was on the verge of tears all night long and I had to sit quietly without saying much in case I broke down or something. Normally I'm fine with people but I wasn't told this was happening nor was I asked if I even wanted it. :/ I know she was just being nice, but our engagement was meant to be... you know... subtle? We didn't want to make a fuss. :/

Obviously I don't know the entire situation but maybe you should ask her nicely if she could leave the arrangements in the future to you?

#firstworldproblems here but I just wanna vent a little

1. Need to do Composition 3, which is 20% of my grade, and I can't afford to fuck it up. I did good on Comp 1 with a 98. I fucked up Comp 2 and got a 78. I absolutely can't afford to fuck this up.

2. I need to finish my project for Logic & Design and my team mate hasn't emailed me the charts yet. ><;

3. All this must be done over the weekend and guess what? This weekend is my sister in law's babyshower and they're staying here til Monday! ><;

4. Composition 3 is due Tuesday and L&D project is due Wednesday! I want to have Comp 3 checked on Monday at the WAC(Writing Assist Center).

I know, mom, you sent that birthday card out of love, but it just proved you never listen to me and want to keep me as your little girl. Thanks for knocking me down to the bottom again. I never will be your perfect little girl. Stop trying to force it. I'm a fucking adult now. Let me go and live my own life, even if you will never approve of it.

[Lupis]

I know, I know, good moods are a sin with my fucking dad around, but can I at least be proud of myself? No? No of course not. You have to shit on that too. I can't be proud of anything. If I try to make a change, even a little one, to better my life, you complain that it's ruining yours.

I spent all day cleaning the house. And because you think I did it wrong, because you don't like ONE THING that I did, you had a fucking tantrum. Yeah. Thanks for the encouragement. Really tells me what for. Note to self: trying to improve your life isn't allowed.

My sister omg. Biggest brat I've ever had to deal with. She gets a kitten to show off to her friends, kitten grows up, she doesn't care for him anymore. Cat goes missing never to return. A few months later and she's asking if she can have another kitten!! Hopefully my mother has the sense this time to say no. This probably makes her sound like a little girl, nope, she's 15.
