WTF Wednesday: Grump Edition
Fuck motherfucking fuck. How in the hell is it only Wednesday? I feel like my weeks are becoming endless cycles of sleep, eat, work, shower, etc. In honor of WTF Wednesday (started last week, duh), here is a list of things that are currently pissing me off / annoying me to no end.
1. My boss. I guess I’m supposed to have telepathic (right word?) abilities and be able to read her fucking mind. Well guess what? That’s not a crystal ball on my desk, you see. It’s just a damn computer.
2. B and I went grocery shopping last night for a few minor things. Since it was getting late, we decided to just grab something from there for dinner, so I wouldn’t have to cook once we got home. Only, wtf am I supposed to eat? Seriously, everything that he suggested was totally off-limits, or loaded up with saturated and/or trans fats. Plus, all I really could keep staring at was a simple carton of Nesquick, my favorite thing ever in the whole entire world, hands down. That shit has 30 grams of sugar in it per serving, and I’m sorry, but I’ve already lost 14 pounds and I’m not going back to being a fucking fat ass ever.again.
3. Lately, every time my friends email or call me, it’s all about them. Their latest crisis, their latest decision, their latest fight with their significant other. Not one of them has asked me how I am, or how my life is, or what I’ve been up to. Two nights ago when a friend called me, I just sat there quietly listening to her talk, barely speaking myself. After we got off the phone, B asked me who I was talking to, and said “you hardly said a word.” Yeah, no kidding.
I don’t know. I guess it’s just one of those days. It’s not that I hate my job, or that I’m unhappy with my friendships. It’s none of those things. I’m just in a funk and being a brat. But at least I can admit it.
What is bugging you guys today?
1. The District Manager at WH’s new paper hat job that insisted on interviewing him today, leaving us to wonder; does he have the job? Is there a problem? Oh, GOD, IS THERE A PROBLEM? When in reality the DM is probably just babysitting the Store Manager unnecessarily and not thinking about the fact that a great girl with a promising future will certainly HANG HERSELF from her ceiling fan if the DM fucks this up. (I have a flair for the dramatic, obviously)
2. My BFF, R, who is frowning upon my innocent shenanigans with Frenchy. Instead of understanding that my life is damn near completely in the shitter and I will wilt and DIE without a decent fantasy, a glimmer of hope, she’s all playing the protective, judgmental BFF.
3. Backstabbing peeps who are going to stop kissing my ass when they realize that they aren’t going to get to go part time and still get paid for full time work.
4. The fucking weather, because I’ve fucking had it with the cold. HAD IT.
5. See #1: I desperately need a new pair of running shoes, but cannot buy them when I get paid tomorrow as planned until I figure out what the fuck this goddamn bored-ass, micromanaging DM is fucking with my WH for.
Hey, thanks! I feel so much better now!
i love that you have been doing the wednesday beefs because i haven’t done one in so long! is it bad that i have nothing to complain about? (yes, you are allowed to hit my giddy self upside the head so i will stop talking about how happy i am. eventually) lol
I just found you through your message on Molly’s blog. We aren’t friends or anything, but I know how you feel regarding friends only being in touch when they need something (i.e. to talk about themselves).
So, with that, I’d like to ask – how are you doing?
hey chasing paradise – please know that we are always here to ask about you and listen! i have also been bombarded by a recent person who turns EVERYTHING into her. for instance.
her: “damsel – what’s up?”
me: “well, i just had some indian food for lunch.”
her: “OH MY GOD THAT’S SO FUNNY DID I EVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE TIME THAT I WAS EATING AT AN INDIAN RESTAURANT AND THE BUS BOY BEGAN HITTING ON ME?”
me: “no – i guess not.”
her: “so how was the food.”
me: “well – the naan—”
her: “HAHAHA I HAVE THE FUNNIEST STORY ABOUT NAAN IT INVOLVED A HOT GUY COVERING MY BREASTS WITH IT AND PLAYING OUT A BOLLYWOOD FANTASTY.”
ok. so i exaggerated that last part. “I’m just in a funk and being a brat. But at least I can admit it.” here’s fingers crossed for a happy hump day as it goes along! this made me laugh
(p.s. thank you so much for your comment on my last blog post – you are so sweet and it really meant so much to me.)
VBC – haha, you’re welcome. It’s always so great to get shit off your chest, right?!
Michelle – honey, you deserve it! no way I’d hit you upside your pretty little head — the way I see it, you had to deal with your fair amount of shit to get where you are. Besides, one of us has got to keep up the complaining around these parts! I guess it’s just my job lately.
Sara – haha, thanks for asking! Aside from the list of shit that’s bugging me, I’m doing alright. Nothing that a good glass of red wine won’t fix tonight.
Damsel – you are very welcome. And that friend of yours? I WOULD like to smack HER upside the head (see Michelle’s comment) hahahahaha. That right there is friend suckage.
I love this, maybe for the sheer fact that I am so in the mood to bitch, or could be the PMS.
Anyhow….totally agree with you on the friends who are completely wrapped up in themselves, I thought friendship was supposed to be a 2 way street but these days it feels like pretty much a dead end. And can I also just say, guys are so clueless when it comes to food shopping & healthy eating. The two just don’t go hand in hand.
I totally feel you on #3. And what’s really frustrating is that my job is listening to people bitch and moan…definitely the last thing I want to do in my social life!
Don’t you just LOVE Damsel?! haha
You know what’s bugging me? That everything in my life is so damn ass EXPENSIVE. Gah.
By grumpy ass..that is what is bothering me. I wouldn’t even hang out with myself.
Ugh.
We should go get plastered to take off the edge. Ha.
I’m mad it is only Wednesday.
I am trying to stay positive though, because I have been a big old ball of negativity lately! See most recent post. haha
Your number 1 cracks me up. What if we COULD see the future inside of our crappy work computers?! Wow, that would be amazing. Then I’d feel just fine quitting my job, knowing that something better was definitely out there.
And one thing that super pisses me off today? So the last week has been really crap-tastic for me. And one of my very best friends knows it, yet she hasn’t called to ask if I’m okay. But how many times have I called her and listened to her sob stories and comforted her? A LOT. Is it really too much for her to pick up the phone and talk to me for two minutes???
Phew. Okay. That was a good WTF Wednesday moment right there. Let’s just remember to breathe, and that tomorrow is Thursday (i.e., one step closer to the weekend).
I know it’s not wednesday anymore, but I can bitch every day of the week… what’s pissing me off?
The fact that I have to be at work right now..and I have to work 10 hours tomorrow. Yea. BOO
