    *cough* Brown-noser! *cough* :lol: :shake:

    Hmmm...what sucks for me right now...

    Got my schedule for college 3 weeks early, and was able to have it altered to suit *my* schedule before anyone else - nope, that doesn't suck.

    Had a DJ come to *our* house to sign papers, have a short demo, and work out what we want to do at the wedding - nope, that doesn't suck either.

    Got a 2nd direct deposit set up at my work to help save for the wedding - no...that doesn't suck (well, it sucks that it's still my money.. :p )

    I found out I qualify for a $500 per quarter government grant, which on top of my work's 100% tuition reimbursement, means that if my college pulls the right strings, I get an extra $500 in my pocket per quarter - that does *not* suck in any way, shape, or form! :thumb:

    So...what does suck? Well, if you've ever seen the show 'Becker', then you know the "rubber band theory" which basically states, that every time something good happens, the rubber band gets stretched out just a little more, until one day...BAM! It snaps back... :eek:

    And besides that, I have a nice sized migraine that has gone down to my stomach, so I feel sick. :sick:

    Oh, and I just ran a vallidator on my site, and it turns out there are 50+ violations per page, (capitals in the tags & tables nested wrong)...but the thing is, Dreamweaver put those tags there! :bang: I mean, when I created the pages, I specified to use the XHTML standard, (which does not allow capital letters in tags) and yet, they're still there, and I'm stuck fixing them all! :grr: :rolling:

    What's wrong with having a decent chap as boss? It's certainly a refreshing change from my old boss who hated me from day 1...

    That's the way it's supposed to be! :p

    Nah, just kidding...I just felt like giving you S***! :shake:

    Anyway, back on topic...I found something else that sucks...

    I "won" a 3 day, 2 night stay at a Las Vegas hotel, and after I read *all* the terms and conditions, it turns out that I don't get to pick the hotel...I only get to pick the date... :bad:

    I can't complain too much though...it is a "free" vacation (minus travel costs, taxes, and a $10 processing fee) :rolling:

    The time remaining before the end of the session is ticking down, and so is my patience and good mood. I won't cry in my Coke Zero when school is over.

    I'm burning the candle by both ends... and the two ends are getting closer every passing day.

    Geeze, this sucks big time...

    I just got off the phone with Jessica, and it turns out that her work is shutting her department down on her shift. They gave her 2 options: move to days, or stay on swing shift in a different department. She can't work days since we're down to one car at the moment, and if she stays on swing shift, there's a 75% chance that she will get laid off within a short period of time. (I know, that's exactly what happened to me when I worked there) :bang:

    She's been looking all over town for a new job, but so far, no luck. :(

    Oh, and to make things worse, my parents are gone for the next week, so I have to figure out a way to get to work...and for some reason, my aunt isn't answering her phone. :grr: :rolling:

    The fact that the artist has not gotten back to me despite me having e-mailed him 3 days ago SUCKS big time.

    serious lack of money also sucks.

    Grr. Phone lines down for 20 minutes, cutting me off from the chat and the internet (I have dial-up). My first thought was to come complain in the RBP, and my second thought was "the frickin' phone lines are down!" >_<

    It really sucks when all your methods of communication are cut off in one fell stroke.

    Still in the stone age of internet access, Big Cat?

    School pisses me off. They freak the hell out of us, they teach us 1000% of what we're supposed to learn, (and some 900% isn't even part of the exam), and worst, they require 80% as passing grade. :rolleyes:

    How about, spending four years in college to learn industrial age ideas about finding a nice safe job with good pay and great benefits. Yeah, that worked in the seventies, imbeciles.

    Stupid woman! :bang: :bang: :bang:

    Ok, so Jessica and I had our engagement photo shoot today (the photo you send out with the invitations), and after we were finished, we found that our car had a flat tire. No big deal. Our car has full coverage on road side assistance, so I call them up, and walk to the end of the street to find out what the street number was.

    When I come back, I see Jessica lacking up the car. My exact words were, "What F*** are you doing!" Before I could even get to the car, I see the jack slip and the car falls a few inches on top of it. Not only had she put the jack on un-even ground, but she didn't even put the jack where it's supposed to go under the car. So I take a look under the car...the jack is wedged under the car pretty good and wasn’t coming out any time soon. To make things worse, I see gas leaking out around where the jack is now lodged. I turns out that when the jack slipped, it pierced either the fuel filter or the gas tank itself. :doh:

    So now not only do we need our tire switched out, but we have to have it towed to the dealer. I'm still waiting for them to call me back and tell me how much they're going to charge me for Jessica's **** up. :flaming:

    So here's a message to all women: [SNIP] :wave: [/SNIP]

    And she always asks why she has such bad luck with cars...the problem isn't the car...it's HER! :bang:

    I need to go to the shooting range to get some of my aggressions out...but I don't have a car to get me there because one's in the shop, and the other has the entire front end torn out since she hit me! Grrrrr! :grr:

    Geeze, I can see why so many guys drink…their wives drive them to it! :rolling:

    Gee, did the stupid woman not listen when you informed her in your autocratic tone *you* were calling for help and that she should not do anything (because she's stupid)? :almostmad: Remember your words here, Kitrax, next time you want your stupid, bad intentioned fiancee to do a god-damned thing for you.

    Er, Kitrax, next time you post something like that, you might want to come off as a little less than a raging sexist. I would suggest something a little less inflammatory, such as:

    Women, if you have had bad luck with a task in the past, or you do not have skill in the subject at hand, and your fiancee is calling for professional help, then just wait there for them to do their job.

    Of course, the same could be said for anyone.

    Sheesh, Kitrax. Are you sure you want to get married? Maybe you just need to go hang out in Sarevok's Bar instead.
