Sick day today. Almost lost my voice yesterday, couldn't hear anything, sinus pain kept me from sleeping, was supposed to show the program to some folks today, and CPS came by... again. People treat kids decently kbythx.

Earlier this week on the elevator up to work, there was a yuppie type making loud juicy noises with his gum. I nearly hurled on his wingtips.

Isn't it awful?

I see women chewing gum like it's cud, polished lovely professional looking women, I think "oh don't do that it's so unsightly."

This is why I don't often chew gum. I'm probably obnoxious too.

Guy two cubies down eats potato chips so loudly I think he's chewing bricks.

I guess I'm sensitive to these things: we kid my dad 'cause he hates food noises too and just try to eat celery quietly at the dinner table. The look on his face! I would go into the living room with my celery. Hahahaha.

ANY kind of mouth noises really disgust me. I am hyper sensitive to them. Not only eating (although this can shred my nerves to the point of crazy woman) but also coughing, sneezing, even noisy yawning. Disgusting.

My gripe today. I got charged £50 fees for a direct debit that bounced in January. I cancelled it in December and agreed to pay via my prepay card because they can collect that fortnightly (my money comes through fortnightly) whereas a DD collects on the same date every month - when I cannot guarantee money will be in there. What I forgot to do was cancel it with my bank. Now it should be enough to cancel it with the company I am paying to, but of course they don't have any real reason to shake a leg and cancel it - the worst that can happen from their point of view is that they get an extra payment for something I owe them anyway.

So all my own fault.

Just it comes straight out of my Amsterdam fund

The silver lining is that I called my bank, checked the DD is NOW cancelled, checked I was not going to get charged again and that's all sorted.

I've told myself I'll hit the big supermarket behind the 'Dam when I get there anyway. I won't have a fridge in my room, but I'm sure I can save some money by buying food like a local rather than a tourist. Even prepacked sandwiches will be cheaper than ordering broodjes in an eetcafe, and I can get Vlaamse Frieten on the street.

Silly to be disappointed - it's more than I have at home!

Oh SG, I keep finding myself doing things like that...then scrambling to fix it. I might never learn.

Today I'm irritated because I have to drive my dumbass to Cleveland. I don't want to drive my dumbass to Cleveland. Don't know what time they'll let me hit the road, then I spend the night and go to a seminar tomorrow then drive my dumbass back home.

I'm just not in the mood. It's rainy and gloomy and it may turn into snow somewhere along my route.

But, I might actually learn something and the seminar is in a really nice hotel so I suppose my room will be very nice...so there's that.

OK, done with bitching. We now resume regular programming.

I have a fucking budget council to attend tonight. I hate budget council, it goes on for fucking evah!

Starts at 6pm, could well still be there at midnight.

Today's the first anniversary of Dad's death. Not that I'm particularly glum or even particularly thinking about most of te time. But I'd have liked to have a quiet night in tonight.

Tomorrow is my Birthday. I'll be spending tomorrow afternoon and evening sitting on the Planning Committee. Afternoon sitting 3pm-5.15pm. Then a meal then back in for the evening sitting 6pm- however long it takes, probably 9.30pm.

This is in the mildly irritating thread, because it is mildly irritaing to me the way these dates have fallen. I shouldn't complain. It's not as if i don't get paid. But i do feel a little like stamping my feet and shouting 'Not Fair!'

:P
