Flatmate - again.

Nagging me (at 7:19AM when I was out running) to sweep the bathroom floor of litter (done pre-7:19AM before I went out to run) and move my clothes rack from the kitchen (because obviously that 4 sq ft is hugely vital, and I should lose the only 4 sq ft I have in my bedroom).

Hate.

What a pill.  Sheesh.
My IA: having trouble focusing at work today. Hopefully that means my subconscious is busy working away and tomorrow will be stellar, but somehow I doubt it.

Never seems to work that way, does it?

My IA: I have to take my boys to the dentist today and I'm expecting them to NOT be pleased about it, especially the older one. His last visit was not a happy one. :(

Uggggggghhhh  >:(


My whinge today is that I grind my teeth- so I wear a mouthguard. Well usually.  I've been having a flare, so I've got loads and loads of mouth ulcers, which are also painful. So I can't wear that right now because it makes the mouth ulcers worse and more painful.  So- my back teeth are throbbing, my jaw joints are swollen and tender and pain spreading into my ear.  Very much an ouch.  Not sure which is worse- mouth ulcers or the jaw pain.    :\\\'(

My marks are over 2 weeks late.  I am seriously sick of waiting.  Also, I'm tired of being harassed about my individual project.  I have other things on my plate (believe it or not) and I sent the module leader an email that may have been a little b**chy.  I should have waited until I calmed down and now I'm worried it's going to exacerbate my problems.   :-\\\\

Best part is that she texted this to me! I was out running at the time, but 1) if she didn't know I was coming back, a text saying "sweep before you leave" is stupid 2) if she did know I was coming back, she could've had the guts to bring this up in person (though then I would've had to hide my teeth grinding anger).

Good luck with productivity! I'm suffering a bit today as well.

I have TMJ and it sucks - I never wear my mouth guard cause it bugs the crap out of me!
Mouth Ulcers the best thing if you can find it is liquid lysine - a lil dab before you go to bed and they disappear pretty quickly. I have been doing it for years.
hope you feel better!

Employees who are complete crap...Everyone complains we need more training and I want everyone involved to do basics to advanced to make sure everyone is on the same page. 
you would have thought I asked them to pull out their toenails - I give up.
I am so frustrated in my job, I am not sure if it is worth it or not.
The owner is so MIA and never answers her phone,text or emails I find important

This is small and silly, but we ran out of creamer this morning! :P  We buy the little packs from Costco. So now I'm drinking milk in my coffee and it's just not the same! ;)
Finally living with my Husband in London after 6 1/2 years together but apart... and loving my life!

Supposed to get lunch with some friends today, but I don't think I'll be going since my stomach is acting up.  :-\\\\  It's such a lovely day today, too!  :(

Sorry shugga, but this made me smile to myself.  Years ago, when I first met my now ex, he got me a giant cookie with pink icing on it for Valentine's Day.  It was wrapped in plastic and safe inside my backpack.  Or so I thought!  The next day there was pink cat barf on the floor.  Somehow, she had gotten into my backpack and unwrapped the cookie and decimated it!  Her instant karma was getting sick from it.  Awwwww.  I didn't mind.  It was just a cookie and she was so cute.

TOO FUNNY!!  Made my day reading these posts!  ;D
