I'm grouchy

Snowflake · 04-19-2006, 07:37 AM

One of those rare days when I am cranky with the world. FedEx claims to have delivered my new (expensive) audio card on Monday, not on MY front porch. Can't get ahold of my landlord where FedEx will drop stuff, she usually leaves it on her porch. Nothing there and no return phone calls and no answer at her front door this morning. So I can't call FedEx to really kvetch and raise a stink because I don't know where the damn box is.

My ex-roomie (soon to be current roomie again) is going off the deep end and I know I am walking straight into a hornet's nest there. I feel like I might be making a huge mistake moving back in with her, however temporary. Been there, done that and I thought all the old baggage was over and done with, clearly, it's not.

I'm letting my boss know on Monday my plans (leaving) and then giving formal notice on May 5th (I want to pass my 5 year anniversary), the bad thing is, and totally unexpectedly, a patent paralegal he works closely with just gave her notice. I'm dreading the confrontation now, timing could not be worse, he's going to have a total meltdown.

Whine whine whine

snowflake in a bad mood

Everyone has one of those days. Mine happens to be every other day.

I say go with it. If you're in a grouchola mood, be in a grouchola mood. Embrace it.

I say this because the last thing someone wants to hear when they're in a pis$ed off mood is for some Pollyanna to say, 'Get glad, Snowflake!'

Oy.

"don't worry....be happy...."

JUST KIDDING!

I hate cranky days. Mostly because I don't like being cranky towards those who have nothing to do with my crankiness.

I hear ya, I'm cranky- but I have leftover Easter candy to cushion the blows.

Snowflake · 04-19-2006, 08:10 AM

I'd love to embrace my crankiness and go off on somebody neutral (like a FedEx rep on the phone) then I'd feel better.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Thanks for the support. I only wish don't worry, be happy could be my motto today

"Grrrrr. Snowflake smash!"

I've decided to be in a grouchy mood today, too. I'm putting on my ripped Incredible Hulk pants.

"Grrrrr. GC smash!"

The funny thing is I had to read your post 3 times before I realized it didn't say 'laid'!

At least you didn't move from your quiet comfy cube to an area with sales guys who have no volume control or manners. Quieter down here. Ya, right.

Sorry to jump in on your grouchy. Hope your boss doesn't have a total meltdown.
