I don't know who to hurt first...
Feb. 8th, 2004 09:56 amMy kid or my roommate...
The kid (who is plenty old enough to know better) is being willfully stupid about doing laundry. "Oh, you mean you *didn't* want me to stuff three loads of laundry all into one dryer?" No kidding the shit isn't dry after 40 minutes...
And the roommate - on vacation last week - moved the living room around and left the mess for me to fix. The man doesn't even know how to use the vacuum, apparently.
They are both getting on my 'get away; I'll do it myself' nerve, and I hate that...
And my cat is having a nervous breakdown over the dishwasher repair guy being in the house yesterday. She freaks out whenever a stranger comes into the house; just loses her little mind.
But on the other hand, the repair guy says the dishwasher is toast and they'll get us a new one. Hell, I could have told them that last year. They've been out four times since then to 'fix' problems.
Now, if they'll just do it sometime soon... I hate washing dishes by hand. No, I'm not 'too good', I'm too tall. Standing over the sink absolutely *kills* my back. And we're paying for the dishwasher.
Yeah, I'm a grumpy dragon today. Kid needs a haircut, always a struggle... And I had to make my first truck payment AND pay my insurance this payday. Holy dwindling bank account... And my shoulder, the one the damn doctor a steroid shot in last year, is hurting again. I don't know what the hell to do now... Don't want another of those shots, but damn, this hurts!
I did have a creative snap, if anyone is still reading. Nine pages for BFB today, and five pages yesterday. Maybe it's the Co Q10...
Trowa gets to take the stage, Wufei gets to be Wufei, Jake gets an attaboy, and Heero gets... well, you'll see eventually. It's not the next part, though. Ya gotta wade through some other stuff first. But that should be interesting too. Maybe I shouldn't assume that. I find it interesting, but then I'm writing it. If I wasn't interested in my own writing, how could I expect anyone else to be?
Oh, joy. Haircut time.

And more BFB? No shit? *grins* You make me a very happy hawk! And yes we find it all very interesting! You can tell by the way we're camped outside your window with the sharp, pointy plot-bunny poking sticks. *poke poke*

Date: 2004-02-08 06:17 pm (UTC)Took me 33 minutes to clean the stove and the countertops on either side. If I find crud on any of those places at all this week, I will kill someone.
I managed to resist the Hersheys... It was hard, but I dropped the freezer lid on my fingers, so that kinda took my mind off it.
Hey, I even got a bit of vacuuming done, and got the kid to help clean in the living room a bit. I think I scared him into it when I told him that if he did one more stupid thing I was gonna smack him. 0.0 I gotta remember that one.
As for the pointy plot bunny sticks... Look behind you...

*turns around* Ouch! *rubs sore butt*
Ok... you asked for it!
*poke poke POKE*

No poking; I had another brainstorm last night. Or this morning. Somewhere in there.
