speaking of the laundry room....we got a flyer asking for suggestions for redecorating it last week.  they had about 10 themes listed (50's rock and roll, ocean, animals, and some other shit) and we were to choose two.  there was also a comments section.

we did not choose any of the suggested themes (lame). here's our comment:

"no need for a "theme".  the laundry room is for adults and there shouldn't be kids under 14 in there without supervision.  what we think would be better is a nice coat of paint, maybe some art posters on the walls, A/C or ceiling fans so we don't have to keep the door open, and some chairs or benches to sit on while waiting.  keep it simple and classy."


right?  yeah i know, how can a laundry room be classy? it really can't, but elvis and marilyn posters on the wall or humpback whales swimming in the sea aren't going to help.  this isn't a 50's diner or a kid's dentist office, it's a freakin' laundry room.  you have a big budget you need to use?  ADD MORE SECURITY!

i'm such a biyotch. *curtseys*



 

yuck

i know some fine folks on my friends list here smoke, so let me just say up front, no offense to you.

that said, i really, really wish the bitch who lives downstairs would smoke inside her own damn apartment instead of out on her patio which is right below my patio and my sliding glass door. on hot days like this i sholuldn't have to close my windows and doors everytime she decides to light up. i might as well be smoking myself with all the smoke that ends up inside MY apartment.

we have a laundry room in our apartment complex which is very convenient, but  i gotta stick to doing laundry on the week nights betwenn 8-9 pm when no one is down there or i might kill someone.

12 machines and they all sat full of clean clothes, the display flashing 0 minutes for over forty minutes! 

that's just not right. 

people are so freakin' inconsiderate.  i just sat down there playing solitaire on my phone while i waited for someone to come empty their shit and then gave ms. baddyejob the stinkeye while she moved clothes from 6 of the washers to the dryers.  i'm sorry lady, but this is not your personal laundry room in your home.  you don't get to go take a nap while you're hogging half the washers.  it says 27 minutes right there on the display, so plan your day accordingly.  i'll even give you 15 minutes after the wash stops.  i soooo wanted to yank someone's wet clothes out of there after i'd waited half an hour and pile them on the folding table.  

i haven't had to deal with laundry room etiquette in quite a few years.  tell me, would that have been unacceptable? 
duhneese: (frustration)

our sons and daughters,

our husbands and wives,

our brother and sisters.



why the hell are they still dying over there?  ugh, i'm so angry.

 

 

 




this isn't a comment on the politics of war.  i fully support our troops as long as they are there, in harm's way.  i just wish they weren't

duhneese: (halloween great pumpkin)
it sure is a good thing i wasn't rushing to get home for trick or treating tonight as in past years.  a sigalert on the freeway stretched a 35 minute drive into a 90 minute drive.  WORST.TRAFFIC.EVER.

i missed taco tuesday at on the border.  where's my margarita?

duhneese: (size matters)
my sister got this email from her son's 8th grade ENGLISH teacher today.

To: My Sister@
From: "Mrs. O'Donohue" @
Subject: READING LOG DUE!!!
Date: Mon, 02 Oct 2006 08:21:41 -0700

Dear (Misspelled her name),

Reminder to all: Your reading Log is due, tomorrow, Tuesday, October 3, 2006.  I
WILL NOT ACCEPT IT LATE! Parents must sogn it! Make sure your name is on it.
Gradeing: Honors 40 pgs or more equals 200 points, 449 pages or less equals 0
points. Regular classes: 300 pages or more equals 200 points, 299 pages or less
equals 0 points.  Be prepared to write a Book Summary in class!

Respectfully, Mrs. O'Donohue



ok now, i'll give her "sogn" as a typo, because she might've been in a hurry and the "i" and "o" are next to each other on the keyboard.

but GRADEING?  from an english teacher? i'm sorry, you have to proofread your emails and set a good example for your students. and this isn't the first time she's sent a mistake-riddled email.

sheesh.


EDIT:  they received a second email.  omg, this teacher EDITED her errors! riiiiiiight!

Subject: Editing Mistakes!
Date: Mon, 02 Oct 2006 10:49:48 -0700

Dear (misspelled again),

Please forgive me for missing my editing mistakes! That is the last time I try
to get out an email 2 minutes before class starts on a Monday morning!  Most
importantly, Honors students need 450 pages (not 40). Regular classes 300 pgs.
Make sure there is a parent signature!!! Anything less is no credit.  In
addition, if for some reason, you do not have the official log, you may create
your own, including the book title, pages read, and parent signature!

Thanks a bunch,
Mrs. O'Donohue


ha.  i didn't even catch that before.  of course she didn't say anything about the spelling errors.

corey remined me of something else.


do you know that our mailman at home won't deliver the mail if there's a car parked in front of the mailbox?

here's a pic for reference. ignore the yellow arrow (it's from a previous post).

they actually put warning notices on cars that are parked in front of the mailboxes on the curb. i still cannot believe this, but it's true.  there is no sign on the street saying you can't park there and the curbs aren't painted as you can see above.   yet those lazy-ass mailmen/women who drive up in their litle mail trucks can't be bothered to step out of their vehicle to put the mail in the mailbox.

and yes, it's a postal service regulation.  the postal service said it is the mail box owner's responsibility to make sure the box is not blocked.  wow, you mean joe blow is having a party two doors down, so his friend parks in front of our mailbox and we don't get the mail that day? 

that is fucked up.
