What Made You Angry Today?

[Orglethorp]

You know what? I was having an excellent day today, right up until I read my sister's latest facebook status. It's 10:30PM, and I almost made it through my father's birthday without realizing it. Seriously, 90 more minutes! Now I get to fend off thoughts of that sociopathic demon piss drunk at a club frequented by young adults, hoping one of the barely-legal floozies will go home with the birthday boy, while I try to prep for a physics lab...

For those wondering, my sister's status reads:

Dear Dad, I'm glad its pouring rain on your birthday, you don't deserve to celebrate in nice weather - your "daughter"

I am angry at how much of a struggle to get through the day and manage things is for me. Glad I am doing it though.

An automated message from a store, telling me that my order was ready for collection.

I'd already collected the order 2 days previously

I hope you ring them and complain KP.

I hope you ring them and complain

Haha, I blasted them on the phone AND Hubby sent them a snotty email.

That B will spend lots of money on his racing cars but not see seeing me as a priority.

The company who built our garage.

They were supposed to come out today to fit a threshold across the front, to stop the rain running in down one side.

Expecting them early afternoon, I left hubby to deal with them and then he was going to bed.

I got home at 5 pm to find him in a mess as they had not turned up and he was exhuated. No phone call nothing.

There will be a phone call tomorrow, from me to them.

My inability to communicate effectively. My brain thinks too fast and my tongue can't catch up with it.

Last night, when I got back from grocery shopping, I found out the fresh blueberry pie was put in the bag sideways so that all the blueberries and the crust fell to the side, including in the shopping bag. Tried to contact the store and I could not reach anyone. Stores too far away to bother driving back with it...so I guess we are having blueberry cobbler now.

That thinking through things is so damn hard. Making decisions is so hard. That sorting through issues is so hard. I wish I had learnt all these skills as a kid.

Co-dependent namby pamby games which take up so much space in our society.

It annoys me to no end when people are indirect. Like when someone stands within earshot of me knowing I can hear them and even using my name to complain about something I did or didn't do. I mean really why can't they just come and tell me instead? It just feels manipulative to me.

It annoys me to no end when people are indirect

My husband does this from time to time. Mumbles under his breath as he is walking away or makes a continuing comment to whoever will listen loud enough for the person he is referring to to hear it. One of his few flaws, but it irritates me and the kids to no end. Passive aggressive. I know he hates confrontation, but all that gets, what he is doing, is anger from the person he is referring to.

I'm sorry you have to deal with this.
