WORST CLASS FIELD TRIP EVER!!!
So, here's today's story. My school's Honor Society and Environmental club went around town to pick up litter for a field trip. What could be the problem with that? It was POURING! It felt like Niagra Falls was pouring from the sky. My rain coat couldn't keep the rain out. My shirt and pants were soaked, not to mention it felt like the Atlantic Ocean was in my shoes. We were freezing, took a smelly, hot bus, and my shoe kept on rubbing against a bruise on my foot. We also took a trip through the dirty woods to pick up litter, because everyone pollutes it. My legs were itching like crazy. They made us eat lunch at a freezing dock, and when we got back to school, everyone was laughing at us, and calling us stupid. Plus, we smelt like a bunch of wet dogs. It was pure misery.

He evidently had enough notice to *pause his movie* LMAO  Didn't give him enough time to make it to the bathroom, though...

My sister was sick a few years ago and she stood at the top of the stairs and threw up ALL OVER!! I don't know why she couldn't get to the bathroom...

Trying to stay positive, but since I just happened to stumble upon this thread.... I've been sick for almost a week, nasty head cold. To add to the wonderfulness, just found out today that we are not getting anything back on our taxes. We are really struggling financially, and I was really counting on some extra money. In our 13 years together, this is the first year we have not at least got something back. And I had thousands of dollars in right offs from a major surgery, out of pocket insurance payments and a trillion prescriptions, some copay, some full price since we lost insurance at times. We believe it is a result of my husband's company not doing well last year, therefore unable to pay their estimated quarterly taxes. It just completely sucks!!!!

A big bundle of nerves here, been out of work since last June, I went on a job interview last Monday in front of a panel, was called back yesterday, to be interviewed by 2 more members from the staff and every time I think about it I just want to get sick. I also only have 11 more weeks of unemployment.....what do I do? what do I study?

This morning I feel emotionally drained and physically exhausted. I would just like to get in the pickup and disappear foe few days.

Early in March, we ordered a new suv and were given 7th May as a firm delivery date. My wife called a few days before 7th and was told that it as delayed until the end of May but not later. She called again near that date and was told that there was another delay. I persuaded her to speak to the dealership manager and he promised that the suv would be delivered to the dealership on15th this month. Yesterday morning, she was called by the manager to say it would not be delivered that day. My wife, I found out, was in tears at that news because she knew that I was at the end of my tether with this nonsense. She asked the manager to call me at home.

I had two long conversations with the guy. He told me that the car is ready for delivery but stuck in the middle of 5,000 others in a storage facility. He blamed the manufacturer and his employees, anyone but himself. He called the manufacturer asking for delivery within five days and they asked him to write a letter about the problem. He kept asking me to give him one more chance and I answered each time that I could see no reason to do that and wanted the Presidents' contact details for my lawyer.

I don't mind waiting for the suv. There's no hurry. However, the lies and BS aren't acceptable and the pleasure attached to buying a new car has been eroded. I'm in a cleft stick and feel frustrated and worn down. If I cancel the order and go to another dealer I'll probably get several more months of this and the price may have increased too. If I let this dealer get away with the lies I could wait months more.

My wife is more keen than I am to buy this thing so I have told her that I've lost interest and she can buy it with her own money. So, she will be at the restaurant today as miserable as sin and I'm at home trying to figure out how I can get some control over this.

A few days on the beach is looking more and more attractive as the minutes pass!

Hope things get better, thaiturkey.

As for me, my teeth are KILLING me and it's very hrd to eat solid foods. My mom hasn't stopped nagging for days now and it's really getting on my nerves. Sometimes, I feel like going to my own little island where everything is ok, but hey - nothing is ever ok, right? Sometimes, all I can do is sleep it over.

 

[thaiturkey]

A little island sounds like a great idea. Maybe I'll take off for one tomorrow morning.

Don't you need to see a dentist?

 

[shadow rabbit10]

It's not a cavity or anything, it's braces. The stupid things not only hurt because they are shifting my teeth, but the metal is causing sores in my mouth. I can't chew solid food either. I guess I'll get over it soon. :/

 

[thaiturkey]

Sounds painful! Should you get that fixed before you get an infection?

When I was a kid, braces were rare and we had many kids with goofy teeth. Some of them joined the Bee Gees! Nowadays they seem to be a fashion statement.
