Things that annoy the CARP out of me...

I had a good day today, I really, truly did. There were, however, a few things that just ticked me off! The following are a few:

1. My daughter blowing up over the littlest things. *snap*

2. Phone calls that wake up everyone in my house. Who really thinks it's appropriate to call a house before 9:00am??? Don't. Please. K. Thanks.

3. Starting to make cookies, and realizing you don't have quite enough margarine or flour. :/ (on an up note - mom lives across the street!)

4. Professors for online classes who think they are God's gift to professors. You're not. Seriously. And I'd rather have a conversation with someone who had knowledge of the world than someone who had to cite every single word out of their mouths (fingers). Sometimes, just living life gives you an education - it doesn't ALL have to be cited. AND - that is NOT PLAGIARISM!!!!!!!!!!!!! BITCH!. :/ I hate her.

5. People in online classes who wait until Thursday to post their discussion question. We only get FULL credit for replying 3-5 DIFFERENT days. :/ Um....that only leaves three, so YOU are making my grade suffer. Ass.

6. People who lose their temper and then use cuss words in their blog. *banghead*

7. Kids who argue with everything you ask of them. Yes, I was serious when I said brush your teeth, it's 11 and it's bedtime. NO, you can't watch the rest of your movie tonight. NO - it's not crazy that you have to finish it tomorrow. I could just throw it out, and you'd not know how it ended (except you've watched it FIVE THOUSAND TIMES ALREADY!!!!!)

8. People who continue to bitch about my President. Seriously - get over it.

9. Bills. Bills annoy the carp out of me.

10. Missouri Unemployment. I have to call every other month b/c you keep taking it out of the system that I'm a student - or whatever it is you've done this time. I'm getting really tired of not being able to pay bills b/c YOU eff up!!! LOSERS!

11. The kids take turns - Krys, Tristan, and Ave - cleaning the kitchen. Tristan forgets to wash pans. Krys forgets to wash counters. Avery doesn't do either. ALL of them forget to check other counters for dirty dishes, or the sink. And occasionally (like tonight) they mix it up and don't do the things they normally remember. I don't think it's too much to ask to have my kids clean the kitchen. Is it?

12. Algebra.

13. Mother Nature. She kinda sucks sometimes. :/

THat's all the griping I'm gonna do tonight. I think I'm going to head to bed, and wake up in a much better mood. IF no one calls and wakes me up. :/

Be safe and carry on!

Summer classes have begun

I started my summer classes this week. I'm taking my first online class - "Psychology of Gender". So far, it's interesting, and thought provoking! I think I may enjoy it. The only problem is we have to do a powerpoint at some point, and I'm not so good at those....guess practice will make perfect.

The other class is College Algebra. Monday nights. FIVE FLIPPIN' HOURS. Yes, that was NOT a typo. FIVE hours of Algebra. Yes, I'm insane. I just want to get this carpy class out of the way! My professor told me tonight (when I was having problem with fractions in a problem we were doing) that I needed to go back to 'basic math' if they were confusing. Um....'scuse me? Did you just call me STUPID???? I almost walked out. Too late to drop and not lose money, so I'll put up with the condescending witch for a few more weeks. :/

AND - on top of that - after we learned 'the hardest section tonight' she says, "Will you ever need to use this in this class again? or in life? NO, absolutely not". So my question is this, "WHY, oh WHY then, do we have to learn it???" Then I figured it out. To get through the pearly gates....:/ At least I got a laugh.

AND - in addition to beginning my classes, I developed a boil under my arm this week. And not just any boil - a 'carbuncle'. That's a ring of boils - I think there were about 7 total. I had two lanced. From what my brother says - they weren't nearly as bad as his (and I won't tell you where his were located - makes me cringe just thinking about it) but I was in PAIN. NEVER NEVER NEVER again will I disregard anyone who talks about the pain of a boil. And if you've ever seen one popped - gaaahhh - now I know why it hurt so badly. Thank you Lord for taking away the worst of it!!! Now I just have to heal the lancings and keep it clean. I'm hoping to be able to at least lay out poolside tomorrow. Gonna call and ask if I can SWIM (at least in a pool) this week. *crosses fingers*

Yeah....soooo....too tired to type anymore. Gonna call it a night and crash. More later, my 10 dedicated readers! :p

Carry on and be safe!
