Instacart and Shipt need to just come out and say that they no longer have any workers due to the strike or have such a low amount that they can't keep up with demand and close their website down. For four days now I have tried to make an order, filled my online cart, and it's not until I go to check out, I see "No delivery times available" and "Check back soon". I've checked for 4 days now, multiple times a day and nothing. This is freaking me out because I do not want to have to go to the grocery store with 2 little ones and risk getting this deadly coronavirus. If I die, no one will be there to take care of them and if they die, I won't want to live anymore either. I hate that I worry about shit like that. I see that Uber eats, Doordash, and Grubhub are still delivering food though, contact-less delivery. I don't know if I'm going to have to just order restaurant food for now until I can get grocery delivery. This is ridiculous.
It must be your area. I haven't had a issue, and actually a little shocked at how fast they have been.
I ordered 50 items from HEB via Instacard at 8:30a this morning, and it's already on it's way to me.

I’ve seen the FedEx truck come through here twice today, yet the package that I was supposed to have delivered by today is still “en route” in the tracking app.

Im feeling like an idiot for giving guys the benefit of the doubt when their bitch ass don’t deserve it.
When I delete their numbers from my phone, THATS when I should cut them off. But nooooo i be giving them a chance to redeem themselves.....they never do.

Wow! It’s busy out! First time to the grocery store in a week. And all sorts of stores are open. I know I shouldn’t judge, but damn.

My annoyance is that whenever I run local errands everyone that works in the establishments that I regularly patronize wants to talk to me----and they want to talk for forever. Like I can never just go into a store and get what I need to get and leave because everyone that works there wants to stop me and chat and so it's like this fucking social hour that I did not ask for. I'm an introvert so it's very draining for me. It's crazy too because since the pandemic I keep seeing people on social media talking about how they hate how society is changing and becoming way less social because of social distancing and how now no one talks to anyone anymore out in public and I'm like----when is that going to happen for me??

^ Haha. I noticed it too. People are so conversation hungry lately. Even more in the last three weeks. I'm a reg. at a coffee shop a mile away and people are starting to tailgate to chit chat ( with proper distance and respectfully ). I find it cute but it's also a little sad . It's only been 3.5 weeks . We will be fine. Haha.

Just more " why do I interact with civilian women ? " vibes here ....... lol
I joined a " abuse survivors " group on FB .
Now I'm referencing trying to date again but facing these phases where " normal " feels off.
Seeing someone every few days is seeming weird even though logically I know it's normal. I just wanted advice.
No one has any decent advice and just starts in on " Omg it's way too soon to date " . Um ..... no ..... it is not. I had been celibate for 10 weeks . I had enough. That is my choice. Omg. I'll probably just pull down everything from that group and I feel like I gave some good advice there too. :(
If *others* feel they want to wait more than 10 weeks after dealing with their narcissist for LESS than 7 weeks ........ that is them. I am me. I've been away for longer than I've been with him for fucks sake.

Guess whose annoying voice I have heard all day and am STILL hearing at 10p.m. ?
It's my bro's step kid still here . Lovely. My parents ( and by proxy me ) had him all day long , bro arrives at 6:30 p.m. for dinner, leaves at 8p.m. for dairy queen, pops back in at 8:40 ( at least he bought me a smoothie ) , then he is off again to find a camping spot WITHOUT the damn kid .
Off all on his own by a river in his camper mobile having some quiet. It must be nice.
Dick.
Anyway ....... I shot him a look of death in the 90 minutes he was here and he started talking about leaving this trip early with the kid. Good idea. I'm glad *you* though of it bro.

Unfortunately I have been experiencing this for years, for me it's not a Corona thing. I'm not sure what it is about me that looks so inviting. In fact, the other day I went to a grocery store that I haven't been to in a long time because I figured I'd be less likely to be approached by any employees for conversation there and while I'm standing in line, and here you have to stand 6 feet apart from each other in line on floor markers, the woman in line in front of me turns around and randomly starts talking to me through her face mask from 6 feet away. She just randomly started talking to me about this mushroom dish that she made the night before. I should start putting on makeup that makes me look super sick, then maybe no one will want to talk to me. Oh and then when I get to the register, the cashier is like 'Omg I haven't seen you in forever! Where have you been?' and then proceeds to blab to me the whole time about the virus.
I know how awful I must sound but like I said, having to force convo all the time is so draining. I think it's a regional thing too; where I'm from in NJ everyone is kind of always in a hurry and what's considered polite there is when you mind your own business and quickly get the fuck out of everyone's way, like to stand there and make convo would actually be considered rude because you're potentially holding that person up and wasting their time. People are a lot more friendly in SoCal. God help me if I ever moved to the deep South.

They are probably drawn to it somewhat.

^^I never thought about headphones. The last time I went to the grocery store that I get approached the most at I just held my phone up to my ear the whole time so I looked like I was mid-phone call(I technically was because I did call my ISP's automated system so my screen showed an actual call lol). Even in the parking lot because they REALLY wanna talk for forever if they run into me out there. I understand why famous people snap from the constant attention, I can't imagine how maddening it must be.

Try the headphones. :)
People will think you are autistic usually. They do leave you alone. I hate certain voices ( self diagnosed misophonia ) and I'm just a magnet for obnoxious talkers . I don't what it is. They don't talk *to* me as much ( honestly because I probably don't have the friendly look ) but I'll get trailed by an annoying person so often that it feels like a joke sometimes .

LOL I wish I could lump this relative into the category of someone who gives me $$$ but no, he's not that way.
Other petty annoyance- I discovered my dog still has hearing good enough that he barks at kids downstairs and kids passing by our door. I thought he was just barking to beg for food. Oh well.

Lovely ..... my brother has taken off today for a full day motorcycle ride.
I guess it just didn't occur to him at all to be responsible for this kid .
^ I'm not going to either though. My poor parents. Now they are tasked with keeping this lazy kid entertained . They went off on a hike ( on the hike yesterday the kid bitched at least 5-6 times clearly because my brother allows this behavior ).
It's probably best I leave the house at 7 p.m. today even if J isn't ready for me until 9 p.m. to minimize my interaction. I can see parents more tomorrow. I think my bro and I at least have un understanding that they will be doing the gtfo thing in the morning.

Petty annoyance- my boyfriend insists on binge watching a horrible terrible police procedural prime time TV show while we're stuck together in quarantine.
The only upshot to the popularity of this show is- it gives young people an idea of what cops ARE NOT supposed to do. NO cops act that way in reality. Ugh. Police procedurals are popular because there's tons of drama/fodder for entertainment in criminal cases/prolonged trials, but IRL the justice system is often blind or short on reach when it comes to treating people fairly.

Today I had to cut ties with some relatives until this pandemic subsides. We've all been sheltering in place at my house for a few weeks now. But tomorrow four of them have plans to go to a big Easter feast with a ton of people. I told them to go back to their cribs afterwards. Honestly I'm kinda over having so many people here. If they wanna be wreck less, then go do it over there. Me and mine will be just fine over here.

Have something to eat, like a decent sandwich or oatmeal. It'll absorb some of the THC out of your system.

I haven’t smoked weed for almost a month and I’m wondering if my agitation has anything to do with that because I used to smoke almost every day. I’m so annoyed right now because dumb fedex put my package at the wrong house and it just happens to be the house that steals people’s mail. I’m so pissed. I’m calling them and the phone stays busy. I had to go to that house and drag a 60 pound portable clothes dryer down the street. So mad. I am supposed to go over my boyfriends house but now I’m so irritated that I don’t want to go anymore. Just want to go to sleep. I don’t feel like him whining about me staying 2 days when he knows I have to check on my 2 dogs. Ugh! I can’t just cannot deal with the remainder of this evening.

I should have clarified
This is actually how I feel several months sober....
im not sure if it was me falling down step, landing on marble, busting my head when I was a toddler or the past years of smoking weed
that tip is helpful though if/when I am able to procure some goodies in the future

Confession- I started dressing like a bum once I realized I was getting a lot more attention from everyone I walked by, not just construction workers and guys at bars.
I hate admitting it but for young women appearing approachable sometimes gets the wrong attention from most passerby.
Petty annoyance- had it up to HERE with my boyfriend's germ a phobia. I legit think he has OCD. Ughhhhhhh

So, I let myself 'fall victim' to roomie today..
Yes, the narcissist one that was using me for free rides, $, etc. (He now has his own car. sick, off work for like 3 weeks.
I was helping him, going back since Christmas.. not huge amounts, but still. We talking like 20.00 - 30.00 a week give or take..
So the other day his coffee maker (which I bought) broke.
So I went on Amazon, I had a gift card & w/that I spent around $17.00. The other day he needed gas $, I gave him $10.00, then another $10.00 for food for his kid. (However, I saw a full bag of food in his hand? ,( he has a freezer in his room)
He thanked me, but then he asked me for $, for the kids Easter basket. I mentioned it to the one guy, he contributed 5.00. So, like a jack ass I gave him like 33.00, & the 5.00b from the guy.
Now, I found out he had like 170. 00 on a food stamp card, which fine, I guess he just figured it out.
IF he knew it sooner, he could have gotten the Easter basket w/that.
Im thinking of canceling the coffee maker
Yea I know I'm a dumass
Edit: put in for a cancellation. It's shipped, (not out for delivery tho). They said they can't guarantee the cancelation yet, but will let me know.
I put his # on blacklist.

They're then trying to resell them on FB markets, eBay and other places for nearly DOUBLE market value!

I'm just going to act "Oh, Idk what happened"!
He's an f'n Bully & I don't want to deal..
I'm supposed to get another part of my hair dye shipment, it's in 3 separate pkgs 1of which I already got.
It's coming to the house here, which I rarely do. I wanted to use Amazon locker but they wouldn't do that.

Of all the fkn days for land lady to be in the kitchen! Ugh! I so can't wait to gtfo & away from here! I want to cook my Easter dinner in peace away from her without having to talk constantly like she loves to do. I want my own peace & quiet again ASAP!
I miss the days of lounging in my hotel or airbnb bed as long as I wanted to when I woke up in total silence (unless I was getting pso /cam requests). Total silence to do whatever whenever I wanted. I've been told I have an "attitude" from bf. Well ya I do & I have every right to have one esp after he's been repeatedly telling me he's gonna make it uncomfortable for me staying here right now (even though I can't leave bc of this pandemic) bc he doesn't want anyone staying here.
I'm seeking the ugly selfish side of people ALOT lately. Good thing I see it full on now bc I'm more than ready to disconnect from ppl once it is safe to do so.

Like ...... what I mean is ..... do you find yourself in people pleasing paterns ect. ? Meaning , have you conciously taken a look at why you might be putting out one sided effort ?
By my calculation this guy owes you $20 - $30 a week times however many weeks ! ha
How are you getting this payment ?!

I started new remote vanilla job today. It's day 1 and I'm already highly frustrated. I've been on shift since 10am and have barely accomplished shit because of admin issues. My supervisor is being cunty already and gave me a vague answer and brushed me off via telephone, as if I don't matter and gave me a different number to call. I can't frickin' log in to the system! Apparently the number I was given was a robotic system. I can't even get a hold of a real, live person. I was on hold from 3pm to 3:30pm, hung up, called back again, and on hold again for another half hour. I called cunty supervisor again and she hung up on me. I've tried emailing two different contacts too with no luck. Wtf!? Why the hell hire me if you're not going to bother helping me?

I am too scared to go into that store right now with all that's going on. I'm annoyed AF too at the way ppl aren't social distancing when grocery shopping these days. Hell, right now next door, these asshats are trying to sell a house & people all day everyday coming to look at it & not keeping their distances.

If I end up pissed at J , I just have to say that it's because he was sending loving messages that I was receiving them .
He was constantly cuddling me and running his hands over my whole body, making things fun the last few weeks, going to get meals for us ect. , making " dates " happen even with the world closed ect. !
^^ If it ends up " not working " I'll probably end up pissed. I have to just point out that these messages were sent BY him. I feel loving towards him BECAUSE of these things.
I'm not sure he will " get it " .
Here is a tip J, maybe don't make a ton of eye contact playing with my clit for 90 minutes , feed me steaks, cuddle me in your king size bed ect. ! Like ..... don't blame me for catching feeling when you give me exactly what I want. Lol.
