Ugh, I really need to stop putting in so many hours at this place. I feel like exactly what I did not want to happen has happened. I'm taking support requests from home at night. Time to stop checking emails when I am not working.
The vendors have been so incredibly incompetent. Last week one of them wanted to drop off a quote. I was in meetings all day, so I asked her to email it. She refused and dropped it off anyway, after I told her I was unavailable. The hard copy she left should have been printed on 11x17 paper but instead was printed on 8x11, so it was pretty unreadable. I asked, again, for an email copy because I could not read the material.
She never did send me the email like I'd asked. Today I left the stupid folder she'd given me at home. I dropped her a line as soon as I realized, but she didn't get back to me in time. Why couldn't she just have emailed it to me in the first place?
Yeah, your mother doesn't sound like any picnic to be around. Too bad neither of our mothers could have found that happy ground between 'overprotective crazy person' and 'totally ignore your kids.' I didn't take driving classes either and had my mother screaming at me so horribly the one time she did take me driving as a teenager that I refused to get back in the car. I didn't get my license until I was in my 20s. Mine was also pretty scared of my driving
There's something really poetic about the way your sister crossed the street. I mean, that's a bad choice, but I can kind of see how someone could get that idea. My guess is that kind of logic is more common than we realize...
That's really lousy that therapy is making you *worse* off on so many levels! I would be so annoyed if I was spending money to gain weight and be miserable!
