Mine too! My nose has been itching non-stop recently. And this cold weather isn't helping any.

 

And today was just problem after problem at work. People yelling at me, one of the washing machines stopped working so we were low on towels, more yelling... Ugh.

I found a spool of metal wire and I wasn't sure if it was soldering tin. I heated it up, and when it didn't melt I grabbed ahold of it to see if I could bend it, thus burning my finger BADLY and leaving a burnwound. I looked at my finger, in the mirror and literally went out loud "I genuinely don't know why I did that" to myself because that was by far the dumbest shit I've ever done.

Work shift went from 3 hours, 4 pm finish to 11 hours, midnight finish. 

 

Now I miss out on visiting my grandmother and seeing my Uncle and Aunty on my dads side for the first time in 14 years, I even miss out on meeting my cousins again and pretty much feel angry as fuck -_-

Back to work after 5 days off (3 working days). Ughh 

[Altador]

Sat around doing nothing all day :l

[testing321123]

Missed by bus by 5seconds, (could have arrived at school 10mins earlier)

Checked for the next bus, application told me bus arrival time approximately 20mins later. (I'm pretty much late at this point).

Waited for 20mins, bus did not arrive, check the next bus again, told me it's coming in 10mins...

 

By missing the first bus (by 5seconds), I had to wait 30mins+ for the next bus, causing me to be 20minutes late for school.

 

Had a class test today too, went in a little nervous, mind blanked out, didn't know how to do.

Came out from the test, and everything came back into my mind....

 

Oh gawd....

Woke up at 8:30 because the curtains were completely open, so the fucking sun was right on my face and the room was too bright. I have sensible eyes, come on.

Soooo this is a long story.

 

I drive an oldtimer. That means I get to pay a reduced roadtax; usually you pay 17 euros per month for my car's weight class, but with the reduction I pay approx 5 euros a month. I bought it last year in July, so nearing the end of the year. Got a payment slip (?) to pay the tax for a year. Paid it immediately. Now we got another payment slip, for 17 euro; the regular monthly roadtax. Hours of calling tax administration...

 

Apparently, they sent out 2 payment slips, 1 day after another. I paid one, for 2015. The hubby brought me the one for 2016, I looked at it, and said I'd already paid it. It was the exact same letter, exact same amount... just a tiny 2016 instead of 2015 in the corner. Never noticed they were 2 different payment slips, assumed they were one.

 

Because I failed to pay for 2016, and you don't get a reminder (as you get with ANYTHING else), they automatically 'assume' you don't want reduced oldtimer tax (lol as if?) and are charged the full amount. And I can't retroactively request the reduction anymore for this year, at all, even though it's only fucking january, so I'm forced to pay the full amount for a whole year. So I have to pay almost 150 euros EXTRA this year but can only drive the car for fucking 6.000 km insurancewise because it's an oldtimer and you're not supposed to use it for regular traffic; but I pay road tax for a fucking regular car. It's so much bullshit.

 

I realize 150 euros a year is all in all not that much, but every penny counts of course, plus it frustrates me immensely that the system just downright refuses to budge. They think that I would've changed my mind on wanting a reduced road tax, a day after I requested and payed for reduced roadtax? Fucking retarded.

To make this whole matter more stupid, I could legally sell the car, immediately buy it back and THEN request reduced roadtax and be approved. The system's fucking wonky.

Could you sell the car to your husband and buy it back to do this?

It's too hot. I can't even breathe, I'm feeling super lightheaded even with the AC on.

I came into a meeting at work three minutes early (and I was thinking to myself...yeah! Clean and smooth), only to realize that they started ten minutes early. Uhh....

[Cass]

Probably not able to do the play we envisioned due to a number of factors.

[Maha]

[Coops]

Four nyquil in and three zzquil later I'm still awake. What the fuck brain.

Again not bad but kind of awkward. I was invited to an open mic comedy evening in a bar because a friend was performing. He was honestly really great - I was already afraid I'd have to force laughing but he was genuinely funny - but most other comedians were not. I sat there really really bored. And I wasn't alone. I don't know if we were just a tough crowd or if they were having a bad night or just didn't recognize they were untalented. I don't know. But one of these comedians was doing their thing, and no one laughed. He caught my uninterested stare and looked me dead in the eye. He then proceeded to ask "So uh, does anyone actually know me? Has anyone seen me before?" Dead silence. "Yeah... I've only been doing this for 12,5 years." Again, no one laughed. It was hella awkward.

Could you sell the car to your husband and buy it back to do this?

I somehow missed this reply. We've looked into actually doing it, but since governments are a bitch and will find any reason to fine you, we're hesitant to do so since bending the rules is, to put it lightly, not appreciated

I'm the only one inhabiting this topic today lol

 

I dropped my curling iron on my knee and burned it BAD

 

 

Beauty is PAIN folks

[Katya]

Fucking governments. @cassiopeiic can you sell the car to one of your friends?

[Kass]

I started feeling really awful today. All my friends noticed and then I fell asleep in my car so I missed band. I can't think straight (I have a massive headache) and I have a bunch of homework due tomorrow. I don't know where I was going with this...
