Inconvenient Annoyances

me too

Not much sleep due to our youngest having croup.

Took the day off and was enjoying sleeping in this morning when work starts calling at 8am with crap that I already went over with my boss! Three calls in the span of five minutes and the last call woke my daughter - so much for a cup of coffee in a quiet house. 

Here's to work my next day off - 

me too

Me 3

The road that I travel on to work via the bus was closed today due to an accident. The bus driver just pulled over in a pub car park and told me to walk the rest of the way because I was the only passenger. It was 3 miles!  In November!

How horrid! So sorry.
I would complain to the bus company, pronto. Number 1, that is not safe or, less important, good business practice.

I would call and complain!! I don't think they have the right to do that...

That's miserable!!!

Thanks! Any suggestions for cricked necks besides paracetemol?

This isn't inconvenient per-se, but it sure is annoying. We got another wedding invation today with a little insert telling us that the bride and groom got everything they've ever wanted out of life, and would we pay for their honeymoon?

I really wish people would stop demanding gifts. Just because two people have met and fell in love and decided to get hitched does not entitle them to raid other peoples' wallets.

And seriously, howsabout waiting to be asked before letting me know what I'll have the honor of getting you? If you got everything you want, then why the heck are you begging? When I was a kid and demanded gifts from others, my mother always gave me a what-for. I don't remember her adding "sweetie, but wait twenty, twenty-five years and it'll be a-ok to be greedy."

Totally agree with this one.

So my IA is:

People showing thier true colours.  Tsk tsk

And never contacting me again when I tell them I can't come to their weddings with pressies but wish them all the best....they just disappear!

Good riddance, I guess!

How tacky!  That's so shocking!

I'd just give them a nice card.

My IA is sinusitis, and I'm pregnant so can't rely on popping SinuTab for days on end till it passes.  I'm irrigating, snorting tea tree oil and sucking down hot water, lemon and honey all day.

BookMoochers who won't send THEIR books outside their home country, but have no problems requesting that you send YOURS internationally.

My GP advised combining paracetamol with Nurafen for this but not to take that for too long. I consider it my miracle cure now.
