The phone call I’m on right now.

Krakatoa’s particle export consistently failed at frame 58, and also did not include 2 turbulence modifiers in its calculations. I had to use x-particle’s cache to bake the simulation.

Absolutely nothing. Pretty awesome IMO but the day is still young :P

I waited too long to start washing my towels on what is likely to be one of the last few spectacular days before winter. Alas, all that wasted sunshine.

I received a political robocall from Rob Astorino’s office. I hate those calls.

I’m sure there was more than one but the kitchen trash bag, those white plastic ones, fell beneath the trash level. Why? Because my s/o bought the wrong kind. The only kind I want are drawstring bags. He got a big box of bags that have zero gathers at the top , are thinner and smaller.
The second thing he did was buy two small bags of expensive candy bars for trick or treaters. I will be totally humiliated if I run out of candy.
I’ll have a host of new irritations by tomorrow. No doubt about it.

My kindle broke. I have low vision and I read all my textbooks on it :(

My bike fell while I was taking a picture breaking my back bike light :(

There’s more but I’ll leave it at 2

Someone asked a question on Fluther about what was irritating today, and that brought back to my memory all of the awful things that happened today.

The sleeping dogs were not allowed to lie.

I was searching for Alfredo sauce in the kitchen pantry and ran into random crap like Advil that the S/O had just randomly crammed in there. I didn’t find Alfredo, so I didn’t make dinner.

I got a 66 on my math test. There’s still 20 points of it not graded, but I think the test was a curveball.

There is no soup in the house.

I have tons of soup in my house. Some variety would be nice.

I turned on the radio to hear the News with my morning coffee. Then I turned on the TV to watch the National News. Every day seems to suck more than the last. Sometimes too much information is not healthy. I wish I could be like the uneducated masses and just worry about what Kim Kardashian is up to..

ibstubro's avatar

They said on NPR, @BeenThereSaidThat, that the more news a person is exposed to, the less they know about the transmission of Ebola.

I never have a problem waking up in the morning, as soon as I roll out of bed I’m ready for the day. That was not the case today. I was just so tired. I got up and stepped in a pile of cat vomit so massive, I could barely understand how it was possible. So, that sucked, and I was already running late for work.

syz's avatar

Oh, I can give you a list: salespeople, gossiping employees, cat barf on the couch, mold on my bread.

A week ago the teacher announced that she would go for a bussiness trip and this morning she was supposed to teach us so that we wouldn’t miss her lesson. This morning I came but no one showed up. It turned out that the teacher couldn’t find a suitable room and decided to call off the class. She told it to the class representative, and when did he tell the class? 11:30 p.m on Facebook, in a form of a close-friend status!

I had a horrible day, but somehow I feel better after reading everyone’s posts…

Neighbor was chewing me out for having a mean dog and for not training our dog to be nice to other dogs (no, my dog did not attack anyone else’s dog, the neighbor’s dogs were loose and came up to my dog and me while we were on a walk).

Fluther!!! Grrrrr!!

Dutchess_III's avatar

@deni It sounds like you’re coming down with a cold or something…....Got Ebola? ;)

Earthbound_Misfit's avatar

My to-do list. I updated it from my emails for the last week… I actually cried.

Coloma's avatar

Coming back from an appt. this afternoon and signaling and stopping on the blind curve that I have to jettison across to get to my tiny private road. People often pull over there by the mailboxes and after sitting for about 20 seconds I assumed the damn driver must have seen me so I carefully start to go and they freaking pull out right in front of me! Grrrr!
Slick move moron you could have hit me and then we both could have been hit by one of the usual speed demons that zing around this curve.

Next time I am going to freaking HONK really LOUD to make sure these idiots see me trying to execute this extremely dangerous turn.

It’s the 4th day my daughter has had a fever. She’s missed a bonfire with a visit to haunted house with a friend, her last flag football game, a birthday party, the Girl Scout Halloween party and now pajama day at school today as well as the last chapter of a very interesting book her teacher was reading to the class. I’m irritated for her. The girl needs a break.

Here2_4's avatar

There isn’t a link that will make a kid better. I wish there was a link. I hate kids having to be sick, and missing out on the joyful things, and feeling yucky.

ARE_you_kidding_me's avatar

It was a perfect morning to take a motorcycle ride to work and I got stuck behind a school bus.

Coloma's avatar

^^^ Mmmm….bus exhaust, delightful. lol

Dutchess_III's avatar

@jonsblond Maybe you can find the last chapter online and read it to her?

I remember one week when my son was home sick all week and there were three snow days! He was pissed at wasting being sick.

Dutchess_III's avatar

My mom was kinda cool sometimes. If there was a heavy snow, and they didn’t call a snow day, and especially if it was the first snow of the season, she’d call her own snow day! :D It was kind of weird, sledding about, knowing you were the only kid around.

rojo's avatar

My frikkin’ shift key is sticking. SCrew it. I“M GOINg home.

Coloma's avatar

I can’t find my 2nd set of car keys with important other keys on the ring. Grrrr!
WTF..I never lose shit, where oh where can they be?!!!

Dutchess_III's avatar

Look in the toy box!

ragingloli's avatar

I have recently seen an electronic keychain that makes a noise when you whistle for it.

hug_of_war's avatar

I don’t know how to whistle.

Here2_4's avatar

I actually whistle best backwards. Instead of blowing air out, I suck in air. I have a very loud and sharp whistle that way.
@hug_of_war maybe if you give that a try it will work better for you too.

Kid was kind of cranky all day, didn’t want to take her naps.

Kmart was having a sale on pop, and were out of the flavor I wanted. I went to the service desk and waited…and waited. Finally someone waited on me. She called the manager to see if they could give me a rain-check. When she gets off the radio, she looks me in the eye and says, “We can’t give you a rain-check, because we’re out. There’s no way to get the UPC.”

ragingloli's avatar

@ibstubro
I have no idea what you just said.

Here2_4's avatar

@ragingloli – here you go my friend.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kmart
Pop – soda pop http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_drink
service desk – customer service with people face to face with you.
manager – boss
rain check – an individual’s own personal extension, or delay.
UPC – product bar code
The story the employee told – BS

Dutchess_III's avatar

@ragingloli confused…..priceless. :)

Coloma's avatar

I opened a new compact of my favorite make up this morning that I bought on a
“buy one get the 2nd at 50% off ” sale awhile back.
Even though it was in the same slot of color shades it is a super pale Ivory color. I wear a natural beige warm tone.
Nothing I can do about it today so I get to walk around looking like a ghost. lol

Happy Halloween.

I lost a diamond ring. It must have fallen off while I was out. I’m going to go around the house today but I’m a bit saddened by its loss. It had sentimental value.

We have a teenage boy that comes to my work for work experience on a Thursday and, as sweet as he is, he is generally more of a hindrance than a help. He lacks common sense and initiative and it’s getting harder to be patient with him.

I went to the Goodwill in Mulvane, twice today. First time was a score, second time was fruitless. So I headed to the Goodwill in a neighboring town, Derby, to find what I was looking for. Stopped to ask someone where it was. They said it was gone. It had moved to Mulvane. Sigh.

But they had another thrift store. But it was closed cuz it was after 6:00.
