Goooood rant, Ginger! Let us know if the unbelievable happens on Saturday. (While you're still fuming, you should demand that the manager make up for their incompetence by discounting the price.)

My gripe...at the grocery store today, one of the cart collecting kids wasn't paying attention to what he was doing, and flung a cart into my door. He said he didn't see me open my door. Well, of course not, since he was too busy yapping to his buddy to see what was behind him when he flung the cart around 270 degrees. But the real topper was he said it wasn't his fault and blamed *me* for opening my door -- I should have known he was going to fling the cart around. And when I complained to management about it, I was told to calm down. Fortunately, I still had my hand on th e door when he flung the cart, so I was able to close it partway and the cart only gave it a glancing blow instead of a dent-making direct hit. But imagine what would have happened if it had been someone walking with their child behind this kid and he flung the cart around into a toddler's face.

Calm down, my big fat hiney.

District office ain't enough. Go straight to their headquarters, and let them have it! And then hit the district office.

That's a big gripe with me and some of the kids they hire at these grocery stores. I can't tell you how many times the clerk has her back to me while she chats with the clerk at the next register about some cute boy, a party they went to/are going to go to, etc. Hello! Customer over here ok?

Hope your Lowe's idiots finally figure it out. They remind me of my FedEx experience this past summer.

Why do my horoscopes keep saying I'm going to be surprised with a romance soon? Don't they know what I look like? Don't they know I have no life and no way of even meeting anyone to have a romance with?

*sigh*

Whoami, don't tell me that you're not wearing your "I'm available" t-shirt!

Why no life?

The last time I saw your photo, I saw a perfectly lovable human being...what's not to love?

So that's been my problem all along! I have an extensive t-shirt collection, and not a single "I'm available" one in the lot!

Well, you know the old saying, all the good ones are already taken, gay, or both!

If I restricted my options to only TVCH members, I'd be in real trouble! Of course, the folks here are the crème de la crème. And, of course I do spend most of my time here!

Yup, I do know what they say. But if you don't think that a man is going to drop on your windshield (as Dr.Phil would say), you'll have to try a new method. I, for one, am just praying for money.

Drop on my windshield? Oh man.....I have had things splatter on my windshield over the years, but I just spray it with washer fluid and turn on the wipers. You mean I may have just swept my opportunities right off the windshield? Yikes!

I'm having one of those "you just can't win" weeks. I've been troubled with tendonitis in my right elbow on and off for about a year. I've taught myself to do so many things left handed to baby my right side that I've now developed tendonitis in my left elbow. LOL @ myself!

Does it help that my doctor and his staff tease me? They were all putting in orders for crocheted items! I think I know where Rodney Dangerfield was coming from when he said he gets no respect.

Update on my Jan 30th gripe. Here's my horoscope for today....

"Someone has been paying some very careful attention to you for a while now -- from afar. They've made a mental list of everything about you, from your favorite movie to your favorite kind of ice cream. Anyone who's put this much energy into getting to know you would obviously make quite an attentive lover. Think of them as a secret admirer. The good news is that they're ready to tell you all about it. Are you ready to hear it?"

I'm ready.....

and waiting.




And {{{{Hugs}}}} to Secretsmile just because!

Hey Who... I'd be thinking "stalker" not "attentive lover!" <grin>

Just to brighten the mood... I saw a great t-shirt for sale today... "I scare my own family." I swear, I laughed for a full half hour!

Hmm... maybe you hadda be there...?

LOL Costa!

You know, I was thinking about that horoscope. I'm kinda wondering how this "attentive lover" is supposed to be attentive from "afar." Kinda ruins the mood I think.
