Aniki-Moderator's picture

TGIF! This will be a short one...

Eff off to:

  • Cancer. <insert swear of your choice>
  • King Pita and his endless, repetitive emails. Dude, we got that info already. Stop responding with your incoherent novella (aka WRONG shizzit) that starts a cascade of unnecessary emails because you're a freaking git. If only I could create a rule to send all of your emails to the Trash...
  • Migraines. The Era of the Aura is upon me.

Hope you have a stress free and enjoyable weekend!

I second EFFoff Cancer. 

I have been a mess this week. I swear I can't get my head wrapped around everything.

Hope that migraine crawls back into that hole!  My YSD gets them.. she also has epilepsy.. so we are always worried that one could beget the other!  and it's no fun to have a headache.. plus all the assorted symptoms.  I remember being like 8 yo.. wondering what a "headache" felt like.. I mean, I had been sick.. but never felt badly otherwise.. ahhh innocence of youth.

So.. here are mine!

Eff off to Covid 19.  I KNOW we are all sick of it.. and being restricted.. but use some common sense people.  The local factory is now inundated with cases and there are others in the area because a few people came home for the 4th of July holiday from Lousiana (where there are lots of cases within the company framework already).  Whelp.. one person.. traveled about.. partying with his friends.. visiting with his girlfriend.. and.. then he fell ill.  Now... there are a bunch of cases in the area because this guy went to a party with 100 people (dumb).. and he is in the hospital gravely ill.  Side note, this is where they wanted my DH to "fill in" this spring because one of the older Captains was nervous about covid.. and the same company where my DH worked in Louisiana last few years.. so his decision to be home and not fill in are now looking like genius ideas.. though the money is tough.  We have talked YSD who just got through with a 2 week self isolation into not working her 2nd  part time job in a restaurant.. people are just being idiots.

Eff off to my MIL and my BIL/SIL who are still spitefully letting their chickens out.  My MIL refuses to talk to us.. despite the fact that I have tried to apologize for demanding she tell them to deal with the problem on her property.

Eff of to the fact that it is so hard to lose weight when you are over 50.. blah.

Thank you, ESMOD!

I second your eff off to the C word. The Ugliness and Stupidity going hand in hand with it make me want to CUSs. C'mon... someone come up with another S word!

I'm sorry about your shizzy coworker! We have one of those too and no one likes to work with him!

Eff off to:

  • COVID
  • Working extra hours and STILL feeling behind
  • Creepy canada dude, no I do NOT want to facetime you and meet your 3 year old, also no I do NOT think he's the cutest thing ever or that his art is the "best thing ever" so you "never need to purchase any from an actual artist" (which I forking am).  You're an enabling Disney Dad, you're not even cute, you're TEN years older than me, you don't know my real name since you popped out of nowhere on an online video game, and imma need you to fork off and crawl back into whatever hole you crawled out of.
  • Preparing to move and having to deal with a friend constantly whining for shit, I'm busy as he!! trying to clean dog out of coworker's house and get packed up and whatever I still need for the house.  I want to help, but no I don't want to spend 5 hours in the car to help you get a desk effectively eating up an entire day worth of work.

Sounds like Mr. Canada needs a dose of Blunt Talk. Similar with the friend... "Sorry, but with moving, I simply don't have that kind of time."

Soooooo excited for you!

Besides DH deciding to flip his @hole switch and have mantrum.

DD had to make the difficult decision to not go to the UK for college this fall. Between trying to get her VISA and pandemic 2020 it just wasn't going to happen.  The kid has been preparing for this for 6 years.  She will be going to her second choice her in the US.  Still a good school..but not her first choice.

Eff off to small pets getting old. DD's guinea pig...."THE" guinea pig is dying.  This is DD's baby...his brother died a year ago and now he has an abcess and DD doesn't want to put a 5 year old guinea pig through what could be multiple surgeries.  So we will most likely be putting him down next Wednesday.  In the meantime I have to give a guinea a daily injection.   Fun times..y'all.

Eff of to the city for seemingly running every farking cable and electric line through my back yard.  Now the fence I'm putting in for @hole dog number 3 (seriously this dog is a RUNNER...if he gets out he turns back, sticks out his tongue and takes off to run laps in the neighborhood.  He is cute a h#ll...a boxer with a snaggle tooth..but so ornry.).  Now my fence will be $1200 more..ugh.

Ask your DH if he needs a freaking Midol. Hand him a tampon.

Sorry about the furbaby. :(  {{ hugs}}

Big Huge EFF off to Cancer! 

Eff off to teenage daughters and the crap they throw at you and expect you to be delighted and encouraging of their completely asinine choice!

Eff off the adult sons who are pissing their newbie career away simply because they want to make money money money NOW so they can move cross country to be with their online booty call.

Eff off to COVID!  I know I know we all keep talking about it, but damnit it's ruined this whole year!

Advice, that second C word bloody well HAS ruined the year. A group of former coworkers wants to get together for happy hour. In August. I said "yes", but am thinking "hell noooooooooo; maybe NEXT August". *unknw*

EFF off to unending work days.

EFF off to my sister and mother who decide to call me at work during a screaming match they were having in the car and wanted me to "fix" it.

Nope!  Clearly yelled, why the EFF are you calling me at work and why are you putting me in the middle??? You are both adults that need to talk it out and go to therapy.  I AM HANGING UP NOW!  Click

Eff off to being a SM!

DH is all verklempt over the fact YSD still hasn't chosen a high school. He tried talking with her at dinner about it and she just clams up. Refuses to talk and just says, "Whaaaaa...?" like an idiot to questions. Then he asks ME for advice.  LOL - yeah, right, because that's going to go well.

I say, for starters, talk with her ALONE, my being here is not going to help.  He gets that "look" like 'omg I don't ever want to do that.'  That's all I say.

Then later on in the evening he talks with YSDs friends' mother for advice.  Yes, yes he did - because she's obviously a mom and note that I suspect she talks with BM and I've warned him about that. I think she told him to call BM, because that's what he does next. So then he, BM and YSD have a phone conference for at least 40 minutes about high school.

DH then comes into the living room and says, "Yeah, nothing's solved."  Me:  "Uh-huh, you know that YSD is going to make you and BM make the decision because she doesn't want to."

And the best thing is whatever school she chooses, because C-19, won't matter beause it'll likely be at the least 80% virtual. I know it's a hard decision becuase whatever she chooses will likely reduce her time at the other house due to school start times and an impossible commute connection.

So maybe the parents do have to decide - but that's going to be a nasty battle.

So EFF SM-hood and watching this and having my DH consumed for two days so far with this and unavailable to me.
