Okay, here we go!

Why the hell can I NOT find a ******g toothbrush that will fit in the ******g toothbrush holder??? The've all got these giant, fat handles that won't fit in the holder. WTF? Do I have to whittle one MYSELF?

And speaking of dental hygiene, what the hell ever happened to toothpaste in a goddamned PUMP? I HATE have the tube lying in that puddle of ook that always pools on the divot in the sink. GROSS!

What is it with stores that have stuff on sale that they are OUT OF the day the sale starts???

I'm fed the hell up with seeing people out shopping in their flannel pajama bottoms and slippers. Don't you have ANY pride in yourselves anymore? As fat as I was, I always went out looking like I had taken the time to bathe and dress myself properly. When did people stop doing that?

PULL YOUR PANTS UP! I am so sick of seeing ass crack!

Ger off the phone or get out of my way!!

Aw, that's enough for now. I've worked myself into a lather. YOUR TURN!

OK here goes:


I go to the salon today to get my hair done.  Mind you my NEW stylist of 5 months who started off excellent.  Also, I left my former stylist of four years to start with her.  Well, the last 3 visits there was a problem. 

1st problem:

She double books my appointment and I have to be WORKED IN!

2nd problem:

I go to the salon and go to the bathroom.  Toilet is running and there is no soap and water.  The owner is enroute with the ESSENTIALS!  OK thank GOD for hand sanitizer.

Today---this morning.

My appointment is at 10 am, I drop my son off at school.  She calls me at 9am, just after I drop him off and tells me if I am ready I can come now.  I say, OK great.  I am there within 5 minutes.  She wets my head and advises that she has  no towels.  She has to dry my hair with paper towels.  EXCUSE ME!  How do you dry very thick hair with paper towels???????

OK what would you guys do??????

ARGH!!!!!!!!!

 

 

Wow is all I can say. As a hair stylist, I would say go find a new more professionally run salon and go fast! If you aren't familiar, I'd check out yelp in your area and see which salons get great reviews and start there. Finding a hairdresser is like a job interview and they should be trying to impress you so that u want to come back. Just my opinion!

I'd say...IF you do go back there, go prepared..tp & towels!  

I got my first period as an adult, not on birth control today which was great...my gripe...did it really need to be like the heaviest period in the world. It makes it really hard to to work, thanks body!

 The first time I went off Depo Provera, my period was like that. It looked like something out of a horror movie!

Betty, I have been on Depo for about 10 years and I am turning 50 in October.  I am supposed to come off of the depo at that point.  Tell me about your experiences coming off of it and how long before you experienced menopause.  I am so worried about this.

Theresa

 I had, surprisingly, no problems coming off it. However, because the hormones from it were still in my body, there was no way to tell if I had gone thru menopause yet. Since I didn't want to end having an "oops baby" at 50+, so I had my gyno do the Essure tube-tying procedure.

I've been off Depo for about 2 years, so next time I'm at the gyno, I'm going to ask him about menopause.

I went to the "new" grocery store in town this morning.  They did carry some things that can't be found elsewhere, however, their prices were quite a bit higher.  I picked up a few things and went to check out.............their system is down.  Will not accept debit cards, which was my form of payment.
I left everything at the register, put my cart up and walked out.  Now, I've already spent a good bit of time in there looking around (for nothing).  So, I go across the street to the other grocery store and they don't have the things that I wanted, some of which they had at the "new" store.
Not being a happy camper, I came home with my groceries.  I then decided to go to Wal-mart, which I was trying to avoid.  I needed gas and it's in another town.  So had to get gas, drive to Walmart and spend more money.  AND I forgot to use the one coupon I had...........
So much for the excitng life of the unemployed.  All day chasing grocery stores............

Don't call me and ask me why do I owe taxes I filed my return?  You idiot your return said you owed this amount you had less than that in witholding so you owe the difference.  

Don't call me saying why did you keep my refund?  Do you really think I believe you had no idea you owed taxes when they were due from 5 years ago and do you honestly believe we've never sent you a letter or bill and you never received one of them???

Don't call me telling me you can't make even minimal payments on taxes you have owed for over 3 years because you are unemployed for the last 3 months.   Then expect me to have sympathy for you.  When I am now threatening to levy your bank account.

Just because your accountant tells you they are right and we are wrong don't believe them unless they can show you where and why they feel we are wrong.   (sorry those of you that are accountants)   You have been sent notices saying exactly where the problem was with your return it shouldn't be that hard to figure out where we differ.

If I tell you we can get the problem straightened out if you send me copies of your w-2's  Don't ask me can you send them to me because you didn't have sense to keep copies of your returns.  If we had them I wouldn't be asking you for copies of them. 

When you get a letter from the revenue department open it.  It MIGHT be important don't call me and tell me the bank just told you I put a levy on your account and you just opened the letter we sent 3 months ago and didn't realize you owed anything.  

Honestly people the levy unit is one of he last places your account goes when all other froms of trying to get you to pay your taxes have failed its not like you haven't had numerous chances to get things straightened out.

WHEWWWW!!! Thanks I feel better.
