This was 2 pm in my yard.
I had to bring the thermometer inside because it was going higher than 120.
I hate it here so much.
Heat like this makes me pissy (my general mood). No energy, and my a.c. only cools my place down to 88.

I'm also pissed that Wal-Mart sent the SAME bitch as last week (the one who got lost for over an hour) to deliver my groceries! I SPECIFICALLY told them not to. Grrr!
I'm going to order from Aldi next week.
Not having a.c. in my car is really putting a damper on my lifestyle. :(

Amazon, I've seen em at Aldi's too sometimes . They're around 50.00, I knew someone who lived in those temp's, said it worked great.

We're getting hot weather this week, I hate it

It drops the temps down to the 70's.
I'm still going to move back to the coast. Just waiting for the market to crash.

Edit to add: What did you end up doing for your birthday? Has it come yet?

I admit I am not excited about my husband's new work schedule. He's going back to the same rotating schedule we both used to be on as EMTs. That schedule SUCKED the couple years we were both on it, because it guarantees that there is never a free weekend. Either he's working Fri/Sat/Sun, or has the kids on the alternating weekend. His schedule has been rough the last 18 months due to school and working night shift, but at least we always had every other Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon off. We could actually plan to go to events on Saturday nights, or I could take a Saturday afternoon off for a friend get-together or something. We literally have not been able to travel out of town together (like, to see my family or friends in other states) for over 3 years because of his work/kid schedule or else his school schedule (needing to be back early Monday morning). I was excitedly telling my family he would actually be able to join us on the next family vacation in August, that I specifically asked to be scheduled on a kid-free weekend, and now he won't be able to do it anyway...

Not only that, but it's still night shift. So, again, no chance at concerts, social events, etc on Saturday night. One of the big things we always said we looked forward to when he finished school was being able to have more of a LIFE together, since we barely see each other around our schedules now. And now, I just feel like it's only going to get worse.

On the flip side, I'm annoyed that there will now be literally NO days during the week where I even have a morning/half the afternoon to myself in the house. I know that seems counterintuitive to what I was just complaining about lol But, while I want us to have more social time together, I also cherish having at least one day of the week where I can have the house to myself in the morning and do whatever I want for half the day without worrying about sharing the space with someone else. Now, he'll be home around 6am, either wanting my attention immediately in the morning (which is not my 'social' time of day, I want mornings to myself to wake up properly), or else sleeping all day to where I have to tiptoe around, being quiet.

Ugh, I just... really don't like his new schedule. I wanted him to get a normal M-F 9-5... This is such a good company though, I'm not gonna tell him to blow it off to go make way less money for some shittier place just because *I* would prefer he have that schedule. I don't even want to bring this up to him, because it'll feel like I'm criticizing him for getting a good job and make him feel like he can't do anything right to make me happy. I know night-shift wasn't his choice, and hopefully he can change to days in 6 months - a year. But still.

You can try it. They only work in dry climates though.

Yeah, that's why I'm not going to use Wal-Mart anymore.
My luck I'll use Aldi, and she'll be delivering for them too. Lol

Feeling PTSD + PMS like crazy today, and it's making me upset about random things. I keep getting compliments about how I look, like "you're so beautiful," and instead of taking it as a compliment, my brain swings into insecure mode and wonders if it's a pity compliment, like I'm trying too hard, or thinks about my alopecia and weight gain... ugh... come on brain, just relax already!

Doggie and I hate this heat.

I get up at 7a.m. every other day to walk him.
Otherwise he is trapped inside and I feel like a terrible Mom. :(

I'm putting trips to the mountains on our July calendar so he can run and be happy.

I've only been down the street to the gym and the grocery store for 1 item this morning, and already people are pissing me off.

First, one of my neighbors almost hit me just leaving the parking lot. They weren't even backing up - they had backed IN to the parking spot, and still didn't bother to look that someone was coming before just pulling right on out. I had to swerve, and thank god they realized and slammed on their brakes at the last second, otherwise they still would've T-boned me.

Then, I go to Kroger and slip and fall on a water spill in front of the deli. Because these women wanted to pretend they didn't even see it happen, I walked up there and told them I had slipped and fell on a water spill over there. I wasn't even being shitty about it - I just said I wanted them to know so someone could clean it up. No "sorry" or "are you ok" or even "thanks for letting us know." No verbal response whatsoever. This bitch had the audacity to get one of those shitty smirks on her face like she thought I was lying or being overdramatic and just turned around to call someone over. Fuck you, lady. I went down HARD, while wearing flip-flops so I scraped up one of my toes. If I had wanted to, I could've been a total Karen about it.

I'm staying inside the rest of the day.

Aurora, I'm so sorry, I hope you are OK? It may help to take a Tylenol or something.. I have prescription anti inflamatory pills too.

I'm by Jewel foods, they've a water refill machine, you bring your own bottles.
When filling, my one bottle had a bad leak, immediately I told a store employee cause there was water on the floor..

I know flip flops tend to be more slippery, still that's absolutely no excuse for how they acted. Or your fault!

I've heard things about the Jewel doing similar stuff, it was talked about locally but it's been a while.

Glad your at didn't get hit either..

So me, I was recycling, I was crossing a small parking lot to get to my car, happened to turn around & this suvs lurking behind me?
I didn't hear him, he couldn't have tapped the horn, Jeez!

^consult with a lawyer to see if you can be compensated for expenses related to the fall. It’s probably on camera.

Don’t feel any way about protecting yourself from careless employers/employees of a business.

Nothing worse than having a legitimate concern and then getting gaslighted or blown off l

I'm probably going to have to go back to dancing, but I'm overweight and have 0 confidence with my body right now. I miss dancing, but I know skinny me does MUCH better than thick me. And there's nooooo way I can get skinny before October, unless I starve myself. Sucks that I have so much belly fat, because my boobs and butt look GREAT right now. FML

Time to look for another place to stay bc I'll end up snapping on her if she resorts to her stupid ass behavior again towards me. Damn I was really enjoying the quiet space & using the kitchen at my own pace :(

My gf and I invited a friend from our hometown to visit and stay on our couch during Pride weekend. A few days before, they suddenly announced they were going to move to our city permanently and asked if they could stay w/ us until they found a place. Uh, NOOOO. We live in a 1bd apartment and I'm a massive introvert, work from home, and need my space. My gf made it clear they were only welcome for the weekend.

Well the weekend is over and they're still on my damn couch. I ask them what their plans were and they dodge the question, vaguely mention another friend they're staying with "this week" but wont say exactly what day they're leaving. I'm willing to have an upfront direct convo and remind them we did not agree to house them past the weekend, but my girlfriend is overly nice/pushover and is afraid it will damage their friendship (it's her best friend). The friend had a six-figure job back in their hometown, so they can surely afford an hotel until they find a permanent place.

I just can't fathom having the gall to invite yourself to stay after you've been explicitly told no. Do they feel no shame?!

A friend would not mistreat a friend, a friend would respect boundaries. Moving forward, I would definitely tell the friend to stay at hotels or airbnb but staying at your place doesn't work.
Being someone's friend doesn't mean having a lack of boundaries.

Now.
This's MASSIVELY. FUCKING. IGNORANT on so many levels.. I just can't.

No, they not only feel NO SHAME, they feel ENTITLED, & need to bluntly be shown the door!

As much as you/her allow, that's what's going to be dished out, & MORE.

They know exactly what they're doing!
GTTFO, NOW!
How bout you send em out for coffee /snacks (give em the $ money for it make it far enough away ), while they are gone, pack up their shit, when they come back , "I'm so sorry, family emergency, you must leave, now"! Great having you, byeee!

Extroverts are just built differently...i think they usually are just clueless / not thinking and don't mean any harm. But as a major introvert, i would be DYING in your situation.

Update: They complained to my gf that nobody was replying to their apartment inquiry emails, so my gf replied that it took us 3 weeks of constant searching to find an apartment here and maybe they should get an airbnb in the meantime. They agreed (!!!) and my gf agreed to help them look and started sending them airbnb links with dates starting tonight. I guess they got the hint because they came by the apartment an hour later and grabbed all their stuff and left! THANK GOD!!

I can finally poop in peace. I have major bathroom anxiety and I COULD NOT GO while they were here. MY BOWELS ARE READY

Because they rarely see women in tight leggins, coming in a random day at their work :))) I tell you from experience, I have an auto shop next to my home and everytime a lady dressed in tight clothes shows up, they stare like their brain has been erased :))) My bf was joking one day, he was like: "You can tell who doesn't have a sexy gf at home, like I do. Look at how they stare!!!" hahahahaa.

I was just buzzing around town in J's !

I'm really glad he lets me take it here and there because even saving $10-$20 here or $30 there adds up.


Crazy!

I hate to say it, but T's electric car does show it's potential these days..

Yessss!!!! I am always dressing seductively when I wanna get treated nice, lmao. Men are pervs, yes, but I use this into my advantage to get what I want and I skip the gross part that happens in their mind. "I'm not gonna go over my head to help out this sexy woman because of her outfit" said no man ever lol.

What I noticed is:
- When I dress too sexy and revealing, the pigs come out of them, they usually stare more inistently and shamelessly.
- When I dress sexy but elegant, in feminine outfits, the gentlemen come out. They feel uncomfortable for staring and if they do, there's that... mesmerized stare, not a dirty one.
- When I am in tshirt and jeans, I get no reactions, like I am invisible. They'd just notice I am pretty or something, but that's it.

No matter what society tries to make us think, men are apes and they judge by the shape of the body they see. I will only dress sexy if I get something out of it... like a trade.
I am not giving free peep shows to men, just because society tells me I can walk around half naked because I am a "free independent woman". Exactly because I know they stare and they didn't do anything to deserve the view.

So annoyed that I woke up to the sound of "smother cunt" yelling at my bf when he came home for his lunch break today.
She has literally started her bitching at everyone inadvertently for stupid shit, shit that isn't even that important. For instance, the bathroom sink has had a leak now for weeks, right before she went on her vacation , my bf told her it was leaking and she didn't do shit about it. Now that she's back, it's still leaking and she's bitching about it (umm fix the shit before you leave, dumbass).
Anyhoo, so she makes this dumbass sign over the sink saying "Toilet seat down... who mess it up???? do not use sink " I asked bf when he got home from work about it & he said that she's annoyed that the toilet seat lid doesn't go down slowly like her old, motion activated one did..... LOL ummmm ya whatever lady.

I hate that I'm still staying here since she has returned but my lazy ass didn't use the time to work as I should have, plus that car repair expense set me back, and I used it as a personal vacation time for myself.... Guess I live & learn. I honestly dunno how long I'm gonna be able to put up with her pissing & moaning about nonimportant stuff *sigh*
Why can't she just stfu & do her own thing & leave everyone alone?!?

I took my car in for an oil change and they called me with a 900 dollar radiator repair and also the last scammy place I took it botched their own muffler repair, so that needs to be redone.

Get a second opinion!
Also, ask family or friends you trust if they have or know of an honest mechanic in your area. Call him or her up and get a 2nd opinion. These oil change places are the worst scammers these days. They don't make money UNLESS they tell you that this & that needs repaired.

One of my friends pissed me off last week, because he messaged me asking how I'd been. I responded that honestly I had been really depressed, but had started therapy and was glad my husband just accepted a good job at a new company. He proceeded to completely ignore the part about the new job, and went off on a tangent about how "of course I've been depressed" taking on so much financial burden for years. I originally was like "yeah, thanks for validating that." But then he just turned it into completely unprovoked vitriol, ranting about my husband basically being a piece of shit and saying completely untrue things about how the entire reason his ex-wife was mad at him was because he "went off and did the job he wanted to do instead of the one that would pay for his own kids." I was like ????? What are you even talking about? His previous job and income was never an issue between them. She's a schoolteacher, ffs, it's not like she brings home a ton of money to pay for her own kids either. I have no idea where he decided that this was ever a thing, or that my husband is some deadbeat dad that doesn't take care of his fatherly financial responsibilities.

I got annoyed and stopped responding. Like, yeah, I've been stressed and there are legitimate things my husband has done or not done to make it worse or better. But I wasn't even talking about that - I was just stating that I was generally depressed about not having a purpose in life. And news flash, everyone is stressed about money right now. Even once my husband starts his new job, we'll still be fighting against inflation. That's not his fault. I can tell the difference between a female friend saying supportive things like "you don't deserve to carry all the burden" and a male friend just talking shit about my partner because they've obviously always been jealous...

I guess he got the hint, because he went back and "unsent" messages and has been texting me like crazy since then, trying to apologize and get me to talk to him again. It's not something I'm gonna stay mad about forever, but I also don't want to say "it's fine" because it's not. But I also don't feel like some in-depth, emotional, back and forth right now. Like... just leave me alone for a little while and try back in a few weeks, asking how I'm doing. I don't want to "talk about" this.

I took my son and his car to Discount tires the other day to buy him tires. I told my son not to worry, about that I would get the price down. I was buying him four tires and figured if I go in with my leggings on I may have some luck

Well I wound up paying for three tires instead of four. Yay!

Annoyed AF that literally both airbnb & hotel prices are insane right now. That's even after I put in a search for traveling up the coast as far as 2 states up :(
The water is off right now too for whatever reason & no damn wifi except what I'm using to tether from my phone. Not a good day at all so far. Also under slept bleh!
