I reek of coffee

Ughh today is not a good day. I was reaching for my morning cup of Joe when I knocked it over. There was coffee everywhere. It was all over my desk, under the keyboard and even in the boxes underneath my desk. Needless to say, it spilled all over my pants and on one of the brand new shirts that I had just gotten. It even soaked my fat burner pill that I was gonna take after break. I had to hurry up and take it because it started dissolving on my desk.

Now I’ll spend the next 5 hours reeking of coffee. I hope nothing else goes wrong today. I can’t wait to get home and change.

Mr McNasty Hands

Yuck. I was waiting for the bus this morning and this guy walks to our stop from up the street. I don’t know why he walked because he was actually at the stop before ours. Anyway he stands there and starts scratching himself. You know, in his “special” place. I swear he must have something down there because he would scratch, stop then start over again. Both me and the other person at the bus stop noticed and the other guy shot me a “is he for real?” look.

You better believe that as soon as the bus got to our stop I got on first. I didn’t want to potentially touch anything that he put his hands on. Ewwwww what a yucky way to start the day.

Something is wrong with my blog templates

It’s on both of my blogs too. I just noticed it the other day and I have no idea how to fix it. I may have to go and re-update my templates but I want to keep the same ones that I have now. It took me long enough to find these and I don’t want to go through the drama of looking through hundreds of templates again.

Now I can’t perform certain functions on my posts. I can’t bold or highlight anything. It also doesn’t give me the option to link to other posts or add links. I have to go old-school and add everything by hand. Having the options on the tool bar to just click and update things made me lazy!

I guess I’ll add things through trial and error and hope I get them right.

A bad start to my week

In my short post yesterday I alluded to the fact that my week started off pretty badly. Here’s a rundown:

  1. I got up on time but I spent too much time in the shower/getting dressed and I was late getting out of the house. That caused me to miss my bus which isn’t a big deal but it lead to my second mini-disaster.
  2. It was raining not too bad at first but then the skies opened up and it started pouring. My umbrella was no help especially since I had to stand outside for almost 15 minutes. My hair turned into a complete frizzball after looking nice for the past few days. I was also completely soaked on my right side. My coat was wet well into the afternoon from being so wet.
  3. After I got on the bus and paid, I noticed that there were no seats so I had to stand. I usually get back off of those kind of buses but it was still raining hard so I sucked it up. I almost fell at one point because we took a corner so hard. But I thought everything was finally evening out until….
  4. I got my hand and arm caught in the back door of the bus. The back doors generally don’t open at that stop so I was surprised when he opened them. His reasoning? I was standing there so he thought I wanted to get off. Ummmm No! There were no open seats and no where else to stand. Luckily I was semi paying attention and was able to snatch my hand and arm away before any real damage was done. My hand was pretty tender so..
  5. I called off work. Not only did I burn on of my few remaining days but I burned the bus tickets too since I was already close to home.

All in all it was a pretty rotten day!

Today is not gonna be a good day

The day has started off bad. It was bad before 9am est. I still have almost 7 hours to go. Ughhh! First I got to work and two of my coworkers are nit-picking at each other like two children. Fine I can ignore that by putting on my headphones. Then I find out that they changed our pay schedule. That’s an annoyance because I already scheduled my bills. I pretty much know what’s coming out of each paycheck for the rest of the year. Now I have to go and recalculate my paychecks.

Then to add insult to injury, as I was writing my new pay dates in my calendar, I dropped a bottle of whiteout on my grey pants. Now I have white spots all over my shirt, pants and on the floor around my desk. The worse part is that I have to walk around like this all day. I look like I’ve been painting walls at work. Quite frankly I just look a mess.

I just hope this day goes by quickly.

I gotta get outta here

Ughh I didn’t think work could get any worse than it did yesterday. Well today super sucks. I don’t know if it’s just because I don’t like my job or what but I am not happy.

I have to find a new job and soon before I go crazy.

Not a good way to start off the day

Today started off on the wrong foot. First my bus left me. I didn’t miss it, the darn thing didn’t stop. He slowed down when he got close to me then he just kept going. I don’t know if he didn’t see me, if he wasn’t paying attention or what. Luckily the next bus is due in 15 minutes. I was only 5 minutes late which isn’t bad.

Then I lost my banana somewhere between my house and work. I stuck it in my bag before I left out of the house along with my soda and a bag of 100 calorie cookies. When I got to work the banana wasn’t in my bag but everything else was. I don’t know if it fell out on the bus or walking down the street. It was the only thing I had for breakfast so that kinda sucked.

Hopefully that’s the end of my bad luck for today. It just has to get better.

I’m trying to keep my composure

But it’s not easy. Long story short I didn’t get the job that I applied for. Not really a problem for me. I know you don’t get every job that you apply for. Cool. However I just found out who did get the job. It’s one of my coworkers. She is qualified for the job but she didn’t want it. She never even applied for it. They just offered it to her. Of course she accepted it. I’m happy for her but at the same time I’m ticked off at the way it went down.

Office politics sucks like hell!

I’m already tired of the McDonald’s Monopoly Game

It’s so stupid. I play it every year and I never win anything. Oh wait, I forgot that I won a apple pie last year. Major eyeroll at that. So far I’ve entered over 12 codes and all I won is 25 My Coke Rewards points. Considering there is nothing on that site worth saving points for, I don’t consider that a win either.

I enter sweepstakes and contests a lot so I know that you can’t win every time but this game is just ridiculous.

WAMO 106.7 Officially off the air

Back in May Sheridan Broadcasting sold their urban radio station to a Christian broadcasting station. Sheridan cited a changing market as reason for the sale. According to Sheridan, there is a new people meter that measures ratings. In markets where the new system has taken place, Black and Hispanic ratings have gone down 40%. Some say the reason is because the meters aren’t evenly distributed to minorities skewing results. Read the article: here

According to Wikipedia:                                                                                                               “As of 6:07PM EST, Tuesday, September 8, 2009, WAMO-FM 106.7 discontinued broadcasting. Its last song was Boyz II Men’s ‘It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye To Yesterday’, and then silence.”
