no, I hate using free hosting sites. I've tried it before, you have restrictions on size and shape of pages and I can't put ads on it to make money, and I'd much rather set up my own updating system then have to deal with theirs. I like tumblr in the fact I can post as big of a page I like, and I can upload multiple parts to a single post, which will come in handy soon.

My managers are really annoying me today. Got like 5 hours of sleep because they scheduled me to work till midnight then come back at 10. 40 minute drives each way, plus having to give my bf a ride since his tire is flat. Then my manager tries to tell me my break already started while I was still working. I DON'T THINK SO. Lunch came 40 min late, break came an hour late and they want me on a belt for 30 minutes? It's so busy people don't care if you're trying to go home. I 30 minutes after i get off to pick up my boyfriend from work so he can rest before going back 4 hours later. =__=

Have you tried weebly? They allow user's to sell ad space(though I think they take a cut of the profits), and I didn't notice any restrictions when I was trying it out. Just something to think about.

Made my sewing deadline, as it's early AM on the 26th and I'm getting ready to pack up... Except for the part where I didn't because apparently it's Memorial Day so the post won't run. Meaning the only way I could have had this in the mail by the 26th was if I'd mailed it on the 24th, as the 25th was a Sunday.

Memorial Day is not a holiday I keep track of as 1: I don't barbeque. 2: The only dead relation I cared enough about to possibly leave flowers does not have a grave. 3: Even if they did, I have no running car and no way to get to a cemetery. So I didn't even realize this until checking postal rates while sewing the last bits of velcro on.

And Aunt Flo has arrived for her monthly visit as well.

(This was originally for my post but I saw it was too long sooo here I am)

I recently found and bought a MH Dance Class Gill, someone was selling him separately. I am so glad I finally got him xD I have been waiting for ANY Gil to come up and I never thought I'd actually get one. So first I bought him and decided to pay for next day shipping, considering it was only a few dollar difference to the 1-3 days anyways. Included tracking, great I can stalk the progress :D Progress goes: Accepted, In depot, Sorting, Out for delivery (so excited at this point) theeeen In depot :[ What just happened?

Then I remembered we had an electrician the other day scheduled to come in and he first went to the wrong house. I live at Rose road, he went to Ross avenue. Fine, we have a thick accent understandable. So I was thinking maybe mail man went there as well, figured wasn't for them, went back to office for next day. So next day (I was in class so all I could do was stalk the tracking) it went into Sorting, Out for Delivery then Delivered (YES). So excited to go home :D

I came home and my brother immediately said "They sent him to the wrong house". Fudge. He said he already called in about it and said he was going to be updated and stuff. It has been a while so we called again. Apparently they didn't really understood what happened during the first call. I think my brother talked with the driver and driver said he was at the right place, he even saw a lady (somewhere near I guess) and he put it at the back door. We don't have a back door :<

ANYWAYS, long story short took way too long for them to retrieve and send it back out again. 4 days later my brother's, mine and one more package all arrive. And it didn't seem like they waited for the other packages before they sent it out because the other two was due today anyways.

Really long suck because I was seriously frustrated with them. This isn't the first time this has happened. And we've MOVED. First instance was at the old place and what they did there was they sent my package to other address figured wasn't supposed to be there so they sent it back to it's sender D: They normally try again the next day or leave it in the post office and contact. Stopping myself here -_-

Just found out today that a girl I worked with for six years killed herself Thursday afternoon last week. This is the 2nd friend from work that has committed suicide in the last 7 years.

Don't feel stupid about your suck. Seriously. I'm just in shock...and feeling a bit guilty that we didn't keep in contact after she transferred to another office building (same agency as me). ALL sucks are important.

*hugs*

Its not a contest abut who has the biggest suck, they're all relative to the person feeling them.

@absynthe1972 If someone is going to take their life it's a long process with many things going on, there isn't a single event that will cause it.

My suck? That I can't even get INTO my classroom yet because they haven't finished waxing the floor! And they won't be back to finish it until Thursday! Which means most likely the furniture (some of it I cannot possibly move, like the pottery kick wheel) won't be moved into place until Friday or the weekend. Which means I can't set up my room until NEXT Tuesday... first day of school is the following day. I'm NOT pleased with this. :x
