Hellobee Boards

Allergies attacking during a beautiful, not sweltering week. And when they attack following 2 weeks of sick LO/DH.

My commute, and people not offering an almost 8 month pregnant woman a seat. Seriously, I was standing directly in front of a young couple sitting in the handicapped seats on a bus, which starts and stops pretty jerkily. The guy made eye contact with me and still didn't offer me his seat. I don't even usually need a seat but in this case it was pretty hard to keep my balance. Jerk.

People that I work with doing only exactly what is barely required to get by ..... mediocrity by choice is depressing

Yesterday I was bitching about people who do not understand how to use the reply all function. I find that so infuriating.

@littlebittyhouse: oh no!! Were you planning on doing it outside?

Multiple typos on a professional website. I'm a photographer and a few of my fellow photographers can't bother to run a spell check. One or two is understandable. I'm guilty of typos, too! But I would be less likely to hire someone that repeatedly misspells basic words. It's so annoying!

@regberadaisy: YUP! we have a 850sqft apt so doing the whole thing inside is kind of impossible! Hopefully it will be presentable by next week!

I'm sick of everything having to do with moving cross country. I am also fed up with people responding to my furniture for sale ads on craigslist. Ugh, if you say you're coming over at 6, then come over at 6. Don't say you'll get back to me later and fall off the face of the planet. And for christ's sake, if the ad says pick-up only don't ask me if I can deliver, then act annoyed when i say no. I drive a mini cooper, a couch will never fit in there! Just go to lowes and rent a pickup like the rest of the world!

Totally not having the fact that our builder chose yesterday to lay our new sod...as DH is out of town until Saturday night. Aaallllll of the sprinkling/watering/sod care/etc. is left to me. Lame.

Mine is that I'm about to spend Sunday through Thursday of next week solo parenting my two LOs. I thought a friend would be helping out more but she has to work and her boyfriend just got back from a year long mission trip so I mean, I get she's gotta see her man... But my ILs will be out of town at the same time, my parents live over an hour away and I'm just overwhelmed already.

@mediagirl: Yepppp. Highs in the high 80s the next few days... We didn't have the extra cash for a sprinkler system this year, so I have to move all the sprinklers by hand--which isn't awful, but then I have to go out and disconnect the sprinklers, then spray by hand all of the parts the sprinkler doesn't reach (the sides of the house/lot, the corners and edges of the lot, the grass on the other side of the sidewalk)...

I'm so paranoid I'm going to screw it up! I already had a little "issue" and slipped when trying to move a sprinkler off of a hill/slope yesterday and put a foot-dent in the grass...oops.

@regberadaisy: Ack! our neighbor mows like 3 times a week. So weird.. doesn't he have anything better to do?!

@ms.janedoe: SERIOUSLY! Glad I'm not the only one. Last night there were two pairs of tennis shoes, golf shoes, flip flops, and two pairs of dress shoes. w.t.f.

People in the parking garage at work that go 1 mph over the speed bumps. Yes, they are to prevent you from speeding through the garage. No, you do not have to coast over them. Ugh!

@betsyboop: Why do people need to get so close? That happens on the subway a lot-- like, I'm standing on a non crowded platform, and someone comes and stands directly next to me. Um... the train is not here, it's not crowded, why are you so close?

@ms.janedoe: @scg00387: Um... DH and I are both guilty of this one. We are trying to be good about taking shoes off when we come in the house. But now that means we will get like, 2 feet from the door, remember, slip off our shoes and keep going, instead of going back and lining them up against a wall or something. It's an improvement for us-- at least they are jumbled near the front door instead of scattered across the living room!

Mine is one of my co-workers. Besides her general annoyingness, I had bought a box of donuts for the office to thank them for something. Someone took half a donut and she flipped out saying "People should just take the whole donut, it's not going to kill them, I hate when people do that shit!"

I don't know why but it made me son angry. Some people don't WANT to pig out on a whole donut, what is WRONG with only taking half? I just don't understand why something that doesn't even affect her makes her hate on them?? I actually flipped out on her for it.

LO's daycare. She got swim lessons for her kids that were nearly an hour before our pick up time and thought it was cool to tell us we had to pick up LO early every Wednesday, indefinitely. Ummm. NO. That's a scheduling issue you created. It's not our problem. (she could tell I was livid so she texted me saying that she moved them).

@MamaMoose: Haha I said that about someone this week myself. Who doesn't know how to use reply all nowadays if they have email?!

@.twist.: made me LOL about FB statuses I don't have anyone who does that, but it sounds annoying

@grizz: Ahh that sounds awful! I have no idea if this is helpful, but I had a previously fracture tailbone that was bruised during delivery.. once my stitches had healed a little I had the most comfort sitting on my legs under me, straight back. I looked awkward and sometimes my feet fell asleep, but it gave me so much relief (for some reason my butt does not fit a donut).

Solicitors who respond with their first name when they ring my doorbell.

Who is it? Brandon.. then awkward silence!
