The Ughh Thread (or: ''I just want to complain for a sec don't mind me'')

[suzanami]

I keep thinking it would be nice to have one of these.  I love the What made your day today? thread but sometimes I just want to shout into the internet for a second to whine, but don't wanna make a whole new thread about it.  so just feel free to vent now and then (briefly! if you want to make a long rant, use your blog)

- vents can be as petty as breaking a nail or as serious as losing a loved one.  consider this the other side to the WMYDT? thread. 
- swearing is okay due to the nature of this thread but don't post just a string of obscenities. 
- also please be considerate of delicate issues, whether you're posting them or replying to them. 
- we'll add specific rules to this post if it seems necessary in the future, but our members are all very well-behaved so I'm not too worried.

I'll start.  because I just wanted to complain that we have a leaky pipe under the sink again.  the garbage disposal/pipe leaked really badly when we first moved in, so the landlord had a whole new disposal put in.  like the whole cabinet under the sink was full of mildew and sludge, it was terrible.  that was in July/August.  I'm procrastinating calling because we JUST called the landlord about another thing not a week ago, so I just put a bucket there again and being conscious about how much water I run, til I get around to calling.

I don't have anything to complain about right now, but sorry for the suckage you're dealing with.

Could have used this tread a few days ago when I accidentally burnt my cat's eyebrow whiskers off.....  I'm more upset than he is.

You know what's gross? Hair in drains. You know what has a lot of it? School locker rooms.

You know who had to clean it out today? 

[suzanami]

I keep candles in the bathroom, two glass holders on the window sill that I put votives in.  they've been there for months.  yesterday and today, right as I was about to get into my bath, I knocked one off and it shattered on the floor.  one yesterday, one today.
they were two of my favorites, really simple but kind of hard to find -- and I got them both from tiny shops in my old city in Ohio.  I'm irrationally upset about it, doubled because stupid me made the same freak mistake twice two days in a row (THEY'VE BEEN FINE FOR MONTHS)

Recovering from surgery SUCKS!

I've been through medical hell since January 22. It started with the flu, which landed me in the hospital for three days before I could go home. Then, before I had even recovered from that enough to resume all of my normal weekly activities, on February 23, I ended up in the hospital again because of a pneumothorax (air in the chest cavity that is not in the lung and therefore causes the lung to collapse because of the external pressure) and had to stay for a full week to let it drain. Then exactly a month after I was admitted to the hospital for the pneumothorax (again, before I had recovered enough to resume all of my normal weekly activities), I ended up in the hospital because of a second pneumothorax and, because of the pneumothorax reoccurring, the doctors ended up doing an operation to effectively remove the space between the lung and the chest wall.

But I hope you recover and feel better soon!

[suzanami]

I know it is a minor thing, but I was mightily annoyed when i went clothes shopping yesterday, both of the tops i wanted got sold out and all they left was the one on display!

I hate that.  And the display one is never in your size, either!   I did get an awesome waistcoat once that was the one on display.  Still have it.

this is somewhat relevant to this thread!  there's an app called Vent that is just what it says.  you make an account, select which mood you're feeling, and vent it!  sometimes people reading the "recent" vents will respond in support!  I'm on there but I'm telling no one my username so I can truly vent freely :p  but I wanted to mention it here in case anyone else ever wants to vent anonymously to the void.

that said, I drank too much lemon water today and now my throat is a bit raw :(  but I love lemon water...

[suzanami]

I have a scab from one of my blisters that is just!!! begging!!!! to be picked!!!!!1  but I know it's not Ready to come off yet (also it's pretty big oww) so I'm trying SO HARD to not touch it. I had to cover it with a bandage just so I wouldn't mess with it. DX

My supervisor tried to lecture me about something I hadn't done earlier today when I was already annoyed about other things, and I could feel my asshole side emerging. I tried to tell him to just leave me alone so I could just get the stuff done and calm myself down, but then he got all "Don't get annoyed at me! I'm your supervisor and it's my job to point these things out!" and still wouldn't go away.

Fun fact: If I ever tell you to just leave me alone or to drop the subject or something along those lines, it's most likely because I'm about to say either something I'm gonna regret, or something you're gonna regret. In this case, it was more of the latter.

It's still pissing me off, though. Like, I was already annoyed, and him making such a big deal out of it just meant this was bugging me all day rather than the half hour or so I might've needed to get over it initially. Seriously, dude, you're not paying me enough to be sparkling rainbow sunshine when I'm not feeling it!
