Things That Annoy You

Bleh. So, my cat's in overnight at the vet to get spayed, and while the surgery apparently went well, the fact that she's been in continual heat adds an extra $100 onto the total bill. Total cost (including tattoo and microchip) is going to be nearly $400. I want to bodyslam her former owner right now.

Between this and the broken tooth, I'm not having a particularly good day.

Eat some chocolate and dance around to your favorite songs. And sing along. That always makes me feel better.

You know, I've tried all different kinds of toothpaste, its all nasty to me and can't tell the difference between any of the kinds, but thanks anyway.

Have you tried Biotene? I can't tolerate strong toothpaste either and have always gagged at it, but Biotene is extremely mild, and this is coming from someone who finds mint to be painful.

[nickiknack]

No, I'll make a note of it, and look for it. Thanks.

[Sleepy]

No problem. It's more expensive, but totally worth it, in my opinion, especially since you don't go through toothpaste very quickly.

I think that despite how much I've been trying, I'm starting to actually forget some of the stuff I've learned in Russian. I'm starting to get lucky if I can remember the conjugations for a few small sentences right now.

Oh, and having raging insomnia while debating a major change (these being two of a bunch of things) at the same time as this is really helping my stress levels.

Cheez Doodles, I love them, but I hate how they stain your fingers orange.

I have my dental surgery coming up in a week, and they've given me this super-mouthwash to use twice a day until then. Every last thing I eat after taking it tastes like ass.

I accidentally activated hard mode in La-Mulana because I forgot about the warning about reading a certain mural twice. And from what I've heard, hard mode is a complete and total pain in the ass, to put it mildly. Oh, and the game doesn't tell you you've just entered hard mode, so I wound up saving in hard.

Luckily, I had accidentally (don't ask) created a backup save three hours of play time prior. Turns out much of those three hours were spent aimlessly wandering, so I didn't need to redo too much. But it was still very irritating.

Maybe I'll revisit hard mode in a second playthrough.

My fan died today. I find it very difficult to sleep without a fan on because I have a hard time sleeping in silence. The annoying thing is that every store I went to has already put their fans and stuff away. You can't buy a fan in early October, but if you're looking to get a christmas tree three months early, YOU'RE IN LUCK.

My fan died today.

At first, I read this as meaning that someone who was a fan of you died today. It made the rest of the post quite amusing.

[Hades]

Yes, I need to have at least one fan in the room with me telling me how much they love my work. You could call me an egomaniac, but I prefer to call myself an eccentric.

That happens with me and toothpaste.

I realized that the loud humming noise that makes it very difficult for me to fall asleep every night isn't a neighbor's AC unit.  I think the electric boxes for the entire building are directly above my bedroom.  They're very loud, and this means that they're not going to stop all winter.  I'm going to have to run an electric fan in my bedroom to drown out the noise even when it is 2 degrees out.

You could try not pointing it at you, aiming it out of the room, or maybe getting a small room heater and put it behind the fan where it's blowing around warm air instead of cold.
