Awww yeah, here we go

My to do list for today is short. I only have about 5 chores that need to get accomplished before I can sit down and get some work done. "Sweet!" you're thinking, right? I know that's what I was thinking. But my list just got shorter. Why? Some inconsiderate asshat broke the washing machine. AGAIN. In my building, there's just the one washer and dryer to service all 12 apartments. Normally it's not a big deal to wait for an hour or two to get the laundry done, but recently ( and I'm not mentioning any names only because I don't know them) our neighbors have somehow managed to break the washing machine about...oh, I can think of at least 5 instances in the last 2 months where I'll go down with my stuff and find the machine full of dirty water ( like today) or otherwise broke down. Now, the instructions on the machine are easy to follow. Put in your clothes, making sure not to overload the washer. Add your soap, add your money and BOOM, clean shirts for everyone. I think it's the new family that just moved in across the hall from us. We never used to have this issue, the most annoyance I ever ran into was having to wait for someone else to be done. Maybe who ever is breaking the machine is functionally illiterate, but I prefer to be paranoid about it and think that they just don't want me to have clean undies. The bastards.  I honestly wish I could catch someone in the act of douchery that's breaking the shit. Not to yell or cause a scene or anything dramatic like that, but so I know who to avoid just in case stupidity really is contagious. My only options now are to wait for it to get fixed, find another Laundromat (hello extra expense I don't need), call the land lady and bitch or sit here and write about how pissed I am. I think you all can guess what I'm doing first. I want to be a good neighbor, I really do. I'm considerate with my noise (for the most part), don't make gross smelling food that could pollute the hallway with stink, and haven't yet hit any one's car in the parking lot. However, when one is running out of fresh clothes, all bets are off.
There. I feel better now, like I could hold an adult conversation without swearing like a pissed off trucker. Let's see how the rest of the day goes, shall we?

Mischief managed

 **I am very random this morning, I'll try in editing to make sense of what comes out today, but no promises.**


Hee hee hee..this morning I found and watched a short film by a band I love. Not a big deal, except I forgot what time it was and played it pretty loud, as the soundtrack was bomb. I was just about to start watching it again, when I looked at the time. O.o!! Naughty!! Loud music at 6:30 am!! I am surprised to report that the douchelord upstairs didn't make a peep..if you want to check out the film I think I linked it on my facebook this morning too. Best if played loud, it's NSFW at all, although the accents make it hard to tell.

I wish I had an accent.


So last weekend, hubs and I got bikes. Hooray!! Bikes!! I am totally excited to start riding again, and can't wait to be outside with the wind in my hair. Just as soon as my period goes away and I stop feeling like I got punched in the vagine. Seriously, this shit hurts. I'll post pictures of our hot new rides later on. And the dorky safety helmets too. I think I want a full face motorcycle helmet instead..that would be much cooler.

I just hit my mouse, and because of the super slippery bottom surface, it just went flying off my desk. Awesome. Spent a few seconds trying to figure out how to get it out from under there...maybe I should make coffee this morning. Nah.


Yes, coffee is the best idea ever.

Hmmm, let's see, what else? Oh, my crazy reached new levels when I started reading "The Vigilant Citizen"..
here's a link.  http://vigilantcitizen.com/  you'll see what I mean if you check it out. I wish I could say I disagree with what he's writing, but I am having a hard time not resorting to name calling.


Not too many chores to do today, I'll clean the house, make some phone calls and hopefully take the bike out if it's not raining. Even though it'll hurt, health is more important, as is a smaller ass.
And I'll write more too. But for now, coffee. Here's a picture to cheer you up on a dreary day.

WAR!!!!

Oh boy..my first rant of the new year! I am so excited to share this with you all!!!! Check it..it's well after 9 on a Monday morning..I'm working out with music on. Not too loud, our stereo goes to 30, and I had it set at maybe 14. Less than half goddammit. Suddenly, there's this pounding coming from my ceiling..like a three year old temper tantrum. Loud and repetitive. For a while. So I shut off my music, stop my workout and go upstairs to see what the issue is. Hooray for meeting new neighbors...except when they are douchey cave dwellers who walk like elephants. All the time. Now, I'm a very down to earth person, and I think my gesture of going upstairs to apologize proves that. But this asshat didn't accept my apology, and instead scolded me..ME about what time it was. Uhhh excuse me fuckstick, I've been up since 5 am, and I WAITED until a reasonable hour to even make any noise. AT ALL. Now, I don't want to be rude (too late, apparently! haha) but for reals..if this guy wants rude downstairs neighbors..I can play that role. I'd be good at it too. The only thing stopping me right now it the fact that a baby lives across the hall, and it doesn't make much noise, and I'm sure that my super bassy whomping music (DBMK anyone?) would disturb it's little nap time. I don't like people as a rule, and this just confirms my suspicion that most other humans suck massive amounts of donkey dick for pay. If the upstairs douche wanted to talk about when would be appropriate to play loudish music, I'd be down for that...or at least I would have been before this morning. I do believes that this means war..and I've got a lot of weapons in my arsenal. My only concession will be to tell the nice landlady about what's going on before I start..but she's awesome (example: when you don't move your car so the parking lot can be plowed, your car gets towed....to the other side of the complex. AWESOME!! And something I would do..) and I think she'll understand where I'm coming from..muahahahahah
