| The idiot in the post sorting center in Adelaide who sent my registered express mail to entirely different parts of the state. What in gods name got my express mail item sent to f****** Whyalla? The post code and name is completely different! Whoever sorted it should be fired or removed from sorting mail, because that is just plain lazy sorting on their part. My package is at least express, so it has already departed from Whyalla and is on its way here and will likely be here tomorrow, but anybody with something coming via snail mail that gets this crap will have half a week or more added to the posting time, inexcusable.
I suppose I shouldn't be all up in arms over what will at most be two days added to the delivery time, granted for something I spent money on the postage so it would arrive in five to six working days with today being the sixth, but never the less. Alas it is just one of those days where I have effectively woken up on the wrong side of the bed, and this is the second time in half a year it's happened anyway. Free passes for sending express mail to completely different parts of the state gets a slide when I'm not in a incredibly foul mood and it hasn't happened in recent memory.
I believe the term for complaints like this is "first world problem". The real problem is, as usual, my temper because as usual changing my sleeping schedule leaves me in a permanently fixed state of extreme agitation that flashes in to anger the moment something so much as annoys me. |

Can we get a hallelujah? To be fair I paid for express mail so I wouldn't have this sort of thing happen specifically, so that I would know exactly where my package is and with the guarantee that comes from spending extra money that it follows a chain of events like clockwork. If I didn't care about speedy delivery I wouldn't have spent the extra fifteen dollars on express mail, and this being the second time it's happened in recent memory means this isn't just a one off human error but a flaw in the system. Edit: Awesome, it's still not here! This has added over four days to the wait time, and if it doesn't arrive tomorrow it won't be here before the six hours I'll be spending on a coach on monday. Which doesn't seem like a big deal, but given they always play the radio far too loudly the trip becomes a form of torture without music to drown out the cacophony. I also specifically delayed this a week so I'd have it for the trip, so now it's looking like that was a waste of time. And speaking of that, watch this space because I'll be sure to have something venomous to say about the coach radio when I get back from the trip! |

| Got home last night. Electricity wasn't working, and hadn't been for two hours. Lights in hall were working, but in my flat and my neighbour's, everything was dead. Tried calling the emergency number: nothing. Eventually, two hours later (by which time I was at my parents' for the night), they called back: please could the landlord stop putting them down for power outages, as they didn't have an electrician? Needless to say, the landlord is getting a 'phone call when they open at 9, and it won't just be a friendly chat. ![Hissy fit](/users/4111/31/13/97/smiles/3299141884.gif) |

| Microsoft and their stupid computer updates, damn near killed the damn laptop because of the freezing that shit caused this time. And this isn't my laptop either, not that I'd be any less angry if it had happened to mine but I'd be in a hell of a lot less shit if it had actually done some damage to the thing. |

It's not my laptop so I doubt I'd be allowed to do that. Also it just crashed again, and it was when it played the same song as it was playing yesterday. Could https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2fqV5XozJQ song be cursed? Probably not, but it seems a little too frequent to just be coincidence... |

| And it froze forcing me to hard shutdown. Again. Well, at least the song isn't cursed, right? The repairman had better have finally made some damn progress fixing my laptop when he gets a ring tomorrow, fractured arm or not I don't think its unreasonable to want some news on it given he's had it for over a month now. |

I recommend roll-on. Unfortunately, I am currently struggling with a bottle of spray that I got for free somehow. Not only does the stench of the stuff, arguably worse than the smell it's meant to stop, linger in the air for ages, but it actually hurts where it makes contact! Who thought that was good design? |

| I had to use spray on once when I was 14. Once, but never again thereafter. Roll on scentless or bust as far as I'm concerned.
And on the note of smell, I shall wheel out another thing that tends to get under my nose when out, and that is perfume. I'm not against it or aftershave, but sometimes you'll be walking along and you'll come up behind someone who has put on so much it smells like someone threw a gas grenade of the stuff there. I've been in cleaning product shopping isles that smell nicer than that when it happens. |
