I am going to murder my brother yet.

For the past week, I've been oh so carefully sorting out the pieces of a puzzle, carefully placing all those without one straight side upside down in the box, so that when it comes times to get them back out, I can just flip them out (I'm fully aware that they wouldn't all come out right side up, but at least more would than originally did). It took a week and I was almost done, and I come home today to find half of them flipped right side up in the box, combined with pieces I did not put there.

It's a stupid thing to be upset over, but I hate it when people mess with things I work on. And invariably he does. It's not like he's a little kid who doesn't understand any better; he's two years younger than I am, he knows better.

Although he does know better than to say that he did it. It's been "I don't know who did it!" since the start. Which I don't really believe, for the reasons below:

1.) The dog cannot reach that table. I know she used to eat puzzle pieces if they were left in her general area, but she can't reach them, and if she could, she would have eaten them, not turned them over.
2.) The cats did not do it either. They would have tipped over the whole box and then used the pieces for soccer. And they can't really put in more pieces; our requirement for cats seems to be (according to my mother, at any rate) cute, but not too bright.
3.) My mother says she didn't do it, and I happen to believe her. She doesn't touch things I'm working on unless she ends up "cleaning" my room (the puzzle wasn't in there). And she has her own she's working on.
4.) My father hasn't been in that room for a week, and he isn't even in town now.

Which kind of leaves the little one, who denies doing it (except he's absolutely the worst liar in the world; even I can tell when he's lying, and I suck at identifying that kind of thing), just like he denies doing everything else he ever does. He's been playing with Mother's puzzle all week, despite repeated tellings of "don't", and he simply can't keep his hands off anything, especially when he's supposed to be doing homework (which he does in that room, since he's too easily "distracted" in any other room). It's just so annoying.

So now I'm going to have to dump out the whole thing again and redo it all. And he's going to get away with it, like he gets away with everything, because it "doesn't matter". It matters to me, even if it is just a silly little thing.

Whatever. I'm cranky anyway today.

sky broadband.
supposed to have been activated before christmas,but has never worked.
Yesterday staff phoned them up,and found sky had registered the broadband to the phone line downstairs,rather than upstairs line,
they have said in total it will take up to three weeks to have it activated up here.
And tried hooking up the router downstairs to see if the laptop will pick up the signal upstairs and it won't,yet it'll pick up the neighbours internet further down the road.
crap.

I just got wireless in my house routed from the desktop. It is great, but I think it is odd I can pick up my neighbor's network a few houses down. We're talking 1/3+ acre lots too. It's not like we are in a duplex or townhouse. Makes me a bit worried about someone sitting outside my house and hacking into my network. I do like taking the laptop all around the house. By the way, that is sort of a complaint.

Chris Rock is funny. I'm watching "Never Scared" on Comedy Central, which I have on CD, but didn't realize that it was recorded at DAR Constitution Hall in Washington DC. I saw R.E.M. there a few years ago on election-eve night 2004. That was an electric night, with everyone jazzed about ridding us of that scourge Dubya. What a letdown the next day. At least I got to sing into the mic for "It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)".

The Judge Rotenberg Center lists in its top reasons parents choose it that there is zero socialization permitted between staff and students... that they are all expected to look and act professional. However, in one of the students' thank-you quotes one student said that he/she got better at socializing with the staff and had a lot of fun socializing with students and staff.


This does NOT ADD UP!!!1

I was kicked out of my credit union today. They have a new policy that hats and sunglasses are not allowed. I have been enrolled there since High School and have always worn my hat and sunglasses. For those that don't know me, my light sensitivity is pretty bad. I wear my sunglasses and hat all the time as a means to compensate and function within society, even at night if there is any source of light. Well, I walked in to make a deposit of my poker winnings from this weekend and was next in line. A manager gets up from her desk and comes out of her office at a fast pace towards me saying, "Sir, you have to take off your hat and glasses!" I said, "Why?" She simply stated it was their policy so they could identify me. I explained how I had been a member for over 15 years and have never been asked such a thing and always have had both on. She clarified it was a new policy. Well, I could see this wasn't going anywhere, so I explained my sensitivity to light and my Asperger's Syndrome and she still would not budge. By now I could feel it welling up inside me and I was going to blow. I showed her my large wad of cash and offered to show many forms of IDs and answer other questions to prove who I was, but she said they couldn't service me as long as I had them on and asked me to leave. So I did, with a few remarks about filing a complaint for discrimination and I believe a <bullbleep> or two as well. By time I got to my car a full-on anxiety attack had set in and I was no longer able to drive. Work was not an option, so I popped a Xanax and waited to calm down and then drove home.

My family's financial problems and the general cloud of sadness that constantly hangs in the atmosphere is finally catching up to me. I've tried to be happy throughout this whole season in our lives, but I can't be happy anymore. All of my family members, even my beloved mother, are grinding on my nerves. I guess I should mention that no one is being physically, verbally or emotionally abusive to me in any way, it's just that I'm fed up with being around the same people and dealing with the same issues all the time.

Y'know, I thought I wanted to live at home with my parents my whole life, but over the past few days I've seriously considered getting an apartment for my 18th birthday present. Too bad I'll have to wait all the way till November for it...

I sometimes get confused about who/what I am, how I'm going to get what I want and what I will have eventually, forever, and then ehat and then what and then what and then and then what? I feel like bad s**t has happened to me and I have bad karma and if I don't buck up and hurry up and figure out certain secrets-- if I can in my understimmed state-- it could get worse.

I wish to complain about the dingleberry that thought they had some right to come onto my property and question my driving skills after they stopped in front of me, then flashed their high-beams at me when I finally went around them, and chased me to my home. Who the <bleep> do you think you are? Then you call the police after I threatened to call them because you wouldn't get off of my property? Whatever!

I know, that everyone seems to have disdain over this, but Microsoft and the either overly userfreindlyness to the point where the non endusers find that somthing like DOS is more like it, but the lack of a Grafical internet explorer for dos holds them back, and when you want support, the act as if your iq is lower than 100. When they do give you real support, it is so cryptic, that it just ups your IQ another 50 points, if you don't imagine shooting your computer. Windows is overrated when it comes to 'User freindlyness'. :wall: When I want the details, give me DETAILS! (I am fuming here!) Okay, I will stop here.

I wish my social anxiety and depression and mood swings that hurt more people than just me would go away. :cry:

The doctor's surgery that I am registered with have an appointment booking system reachable only by PHONE. This is harder as I am partially hearing /deaf and not totally telephone confident. It takes me half an hour of redialling until there is a line for me to the booking receptionist. As a result all the appointments for the doctors is full for the day, and the closest I can get is a week away. All for a repeat prescription for eye drops! :wall:

In the old days people would walk in a and wait for their turn. Between 1 and 2 hours, and then its done!

I wish I didn't have Old Hag Syndrome! Old hags are the creepiest things on the planet.

To the girl who blocked the aisle at TRU and then got bitchy with me when I slightly bumped the large toy she was holding as I tried to scoot by...piss off. To your friend who commented as I walked away that I better not come back, well...I already gave you a piece of my mind you w*ker.

I have a feeling that my aunt probably passed away, tonight. That's why I'm making this grievance.

Complaining today about the woman who left her shopping cart in the toy aisle in front of the Star Wars toys and walked away. When I arrived you were nowhere to be found, so I moved your cart out of my way. What was your problem bitching me out like that when you finally returned? I don't have time to wait for inconsiderate morons like you. It's not like you owned anything in the cart. It was all unpaid for merchandise.
