GRRRR!!! Post your angry vents here!

[horseshowmom]

I've got one.

I spent last week at the State 4-H Horse Championship Show. DD was helping a girl whose horse had qualified.

The county we're from recently had a new club start there. For some reason that I can't understand, the old club HATES the new club. The adults have been really snotty. The girl my DD was helping is a member of the old club (she doesn't really participate in club stuff and isn't one of the ones who has a problem with the new club).

Only one little girl from the new club qualified for State. She's 8 years old.

From the time the others got there, shavings bags started being thrown in front of the stalls where the little girl and DD's friend were (the friend had several stalls and the little girl had one for a total of 6 - the others had skipped stalls so as not to be "by the others"). The shavings bags came from a place that people in our area buy shavings from (bags are stamped with the company name). I can't prove it was them, but it probably was.

After all of that, I had DD and her friend walk in with the little girl during opening ceremonies. During the ceremony, one of the kids threw a large rock (DD's friend said rock, but it was probably a dirt clod since they were in the arena) at the little girl and then the others all laughed loudly about it. The little girl actually thought they were "playing" with her and didn't realize what was going on. Of course, DD and her friend are older and knew exactly what was happening (almost 19 and 18).

Afterwards, I went to a parent in the group and told them exactly what had happened and how the kids were following the parents example. Of course, she said she couldn't say anything to the others and couldn't help what the kids did.

I was really angry...

Vent over now

Just a typical Monday here. It started with our Lab nosing his way into the pantry and eating a new box of Cocoa Pebbles. We had to extract the box from his head. Then, I realize I have poison ivy on my face! It's all around my chin area and getting worse. I've never had poison ivy in my life until two weeks ago and it was a little bit on my leg. Now it's on my face?! We have a huge event this Friday in Chicago and I'm just going to be looking great! Oh, and I ate like a pig all weekend so now I feel all fat and bloated and my DD just made chocolate chip cookies and I can't keep myself from eating them. So those are my vents.

Puppies who poop on the floor make me angry

Vonage REALLY ticks me off!!!!!!!!!! My phone wasn't working since last Monday, and I had done EVERYTHING for it... rebooting , resetting, blah blah blah,...

I called the tech support and OF COURSE it's an Indian call center.... Yup..that's who I need dealing with my problem, ppl who are only semi-coherent with the english language.... After THREE calls throughout the week, I was finally able to get my problem fixed this morning. It was on THERE end and they had to reset their settings..

Vent on, fellow DISers!

I made it through my horrible day (and it WAS horrible), but now because being mad made me appear to be UNREASONABLE there will be more fallout to come. I am so stressed out I only slept for about 3 hours last night and I haven't eaten anything today. Just coffee and water. I'll probably have an ulcer before long.

17 days 'til Disney and I may end up going postal in a bizarre psychotic episode before then. But you know what? This is a job. In the grand scheme of my life it is nothing. I've told DH I may very well end up resigning in the next day or so and we will just deal with it from there, and he is behind me 100%. So there's my contingency plan. If the situation can't be resolved then I will quit. I may be unreasonable but I am not stupid.

 

[momof1princess]

ok...here goes: i'm HOPPIN', STEAMIN' mad at my DH's boss for, in essence, demoting him after SIXTEEN years on the job back to a laborer, which means not only does he have to do a crap job, he has to take a 2+ dollar/hr paycut AND work 3rd shift! GAAAAHHHHHHH i hate it! i hate he has to work this crappy job, and i hate that it has to be 3rd shift and i have to sleep alone! i realize it's either this or be laid off for who knows how long, but still, it SUCKS!!

My favorite cousin is getting married on Friday to a great guy. DS is a junior groom and can't wait. I will see my family again. BUT:

1. last time I talked to my aunt - the Mother of the Bride, she suggested I look into a tummy tuck so I would feel better about myself. I had lost a lot of weight when she had seen me before and she thought "if you could get rid of your pooch, think how happy you'd be! And motivated to lose more weight!". Yeah, thanks. I know she thought she was being loving and supportive, but the truth is that I have gained a lot of the weight back and my "pooch" from my Csection is the least of my worries. I am NOT looking forward to seeing her and knowing her first thought will be "D***, are you fat!!!" (yes, I understand she will be way too wrapped up in the wedding to care, but this doesn't keep my from wanting to eat a pan of brownies in protest.)

2. The wedding is on the 4th "anniversary" of my mom's accident/death. I totally do not expect my cousin to avoid the date because of this...I'm not that selfish. However, they are going to announce this during the ceremony in the petitions. Not just a memory of my mom, but that she died four years ago. And who will be reading the petitions? My DAD! So I have to sit there in the midst of such a happy event, listening to my dad praying about my mom, and mentioning her death. I have a really hard time around this date - she was my very best friend from the moment I was born - and I don't want to have it in my face like that.

3. We have to pay for a hotel, gift, and very expensive tux for DS (who will be so very, very cute!) and right now we just can't afford it. This is the least of my vents.

I wish they had an icon that screams. I also wish I had brownies.

Sigh.

just letting out a little anger.

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

annoyed by phonies and people that need to keep up with the Jones'

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

The line about the screaming icon and the brownies made my DS laugh. He wandered in and read it over my shoulder. He had a pretty crappy day, too, so it was good to hear him laugh.

I think if there were brownies I might actually eat one. I know I should eat something, but my stomach is too busy being knotted up and queasy to think about food. I wonder how much weight I can lose this way before the trip? I wonder how long it will take for me to pass out from not eating? I try to avoid that sort of thing because I don't want to knock any teeth out.

Brownies can cure anything

My 19 ds (who's mentally ill) going on a rage and calling me every name in the book
So I go to the gym-I hate machine hogs!!!!
You know the ones who put their sweaty towels on weight lifting machines so no one else will use the machine while their resting between sets. Or like tonight a couple put their sweaty gloves and towels on a machine and then proceeded to stand and talk to a third person for 10 minutes!! So I just politely asked if this stuff was there and could I play through. They gave me dirty looks and said "I guess". So I did
Ok I feel better thanks

I still have no brownies. I ate waffles instead. Not the same thing.

 

[tiff13]

Waffles sound good, and brownies delicous.

Im on the jello, pudding, icecream diet.(aka I had my wisdom teeth pulled this afternoon)

 

[Planogirl]

I can't stand people that continually have to pick on other people because they don't understand them. What's the point?

I'm also tired of high stress jobs and droughts. Both of those in a day tend to make me very cranky.

I'm a paralegal and I'm sick of working much longer hours than the attorneys I work for and not getting paid half of what they make!!

Not only do they take credit for all my work, they treat me like a slave and I wouldn't be shocked if one of them asked me to wipe their a** for them!

They are building a new subdivision on the cornfield behind our property. We have a two acre, wooded lot surrounded on three sides by a deep ravine (10-20 ft). We can't even see the cornfield through our trees.

Friday morning, at 5am, we are awakened by the noise of what sounded like a car without a muffler stuck in the ravine. It was in the back of our house, so, it had to be in the construction area. The engine would rev for 10 minute, and stop for 5-10. This was still going on at 7am when I left for work.

My husband calls the sheriff. Turns out there is no noise ordinance in the county. There is nothing they can do. Why does that not surprise me? The town we live in is also building a sewage treatment plant on that land. I called the water company, and left a message. I got a similar message. There is no noise ordinance, and besides that, we don't live in city limits. Well, then, is it OK for me to leave my dogs out all night so they can bark at the moon?
