I wanna order a bunch of chocolate milk mixes from Amazon, but my order's not enough for free shipping, and they don't have any good sugar dispensers that I want.

Ran out of milk. Didn't have quite enough for the amount of Cheerios I'd poured in the bowl. I really hate when the cereal is too dry.

Starbucks barista didn't fully read our order until after making the drink, we only asked for 10 ice cubes.

She rolled her eyes, chucked the drink and made another with approximately 10 cubes.

I'm watching Better Call Saul and I just heard that fucking ANNOYING Heineken commercial again. You know, the one with the soccer lovers on the ship and they all pull up some old TV and watch the Champians League soccer match. Whatever, but the fucking song that plays... "YEAH! BA BA BA BA BA BA PO PO PO PO PO PO BA BA BA BA BA BA." Wow, that fucking annoying ass shit song makes me wanna burn down my whole apartment complex and probably the whole city. I WANT BLOOD, NOW.

I received my replacement smartphone for the one with hardware failure (the USB port has been very iffy for ~6 months, maybe more). I spent about 3 hours this evening trying to get the new phone (also a Nokia Lumia 520) set up like the old one and got absolutely nowhere. Windowsphone.com's instructions are just complete bullshit. It's criminal that they don't make it obvious how to go about doing this.

But hey at least it's not an overpriced iPhone that works out of the box

This can't be real.

There's no way to walk around with a big gulp and not feel like a fatass, nevermind the fact that it's just filled with ice water.

Why can't it be real? I hate ordering a refresher drink and 1/3 is filled with ice cubes. Only need about 10 cubes to keep it chilled.

Then just say "light ice" and if they give you too much OH FREAKING WELL BOO HOO. You can also pour out the excess ice from your first one and ask them not to add any more for the refill, if that's what you mean by "refresher."

Had to reboot to install software. Clicked Hibernate out of habit.

Had to un-hibernate, then hit restart.

And this is on my work laptop, which has a shitty HDD, so was slow. My personal lappy would have hibernated and un-hibernated in like 9 seconds flat.

Sigh.

I started playing an old toon again. Last login was pre-expansion so I had to redo the skill points, and I totally don't have the muscle memory to play this class effectively. Total n00b-ville.

Gez Dave... the real problem is a return to your addiction.

I'm freezing cold, but the cat is on my lap and we're both too comfortable to get up to turn the heat up.

I feel fat... seriously, I don't think I've had so much extra "grab" in the past decade.
