Clothes that are on the wrong hangers in shops. I have to bring back a pair of pants tomorrow that are two sizes too big

One of my earliest memories is of my mum checking the label on clothes in Penney's in Rathfarnham Shopping Centre because the hangers weren't to be trusted. I'd say I was about 4. Possibly on the same visit she made me try on clothes without going into the fitting room because "Sure who's looking at you???"

How times have changed.

A certain awkward and selfish family member. Grumble.

Trying to get a superhero costume for my 1-year-old as it's superhero day in crèche tomorrow. Jesus, they don't make it easy. I got in the car at 9am and drove to Dún Droma for Hamleys. The place looked like a morgue so I asked a girl nearby and when she heard my plight she told me sympathetically the whole place has closed down for good. She recommended two other places.

I went there and the sneering [male] feckers were barely hiding their amusement at my search for a superhero costume. Girls are so much more sympathetic for this sort of shopping! Off with me to Carrickmines and Smyths had three superheroes (allegedly!) that I had never heard of Cat something and two others. "Superheroes" my eye. No Superman at all. Went to Mothercare and they had Batman, who was nowhere near as big a superhero as Superman was, the Avengers, which I think was a 1970s drama with loads of women [edit: that was Charlie's Angels], and the Incredible Hulk who was a crap "superhero". And then not one place had a superhero costume to fit a 1-year-old superhero. As if a one-year-old can't be a real superhero.... At the end, I just asked the nearest woman in Mothercare which is the best, and went with her recommendation. As things stand it's going to be entertaining at 7:30am tomorrow after the nappy change to fit him into an Avengers costume for age group 3-5 (replete with face mask) - and then try and fit him into the car seat. Although I think I'll be breaking my sides laughing watching him waddle into crèche from the car.

... all this reminds me of my mother bringing a Superman pyjamas home from New York to me in about 1980 and I was upset because she couldn't find a real Superman outfit in all of America (I remember vividly the daily phonecalls asking her did she find it yet!). She was so apologetic.

If you have potted plants, there could be stagnant water in the saucers under them. It can get quite pungent, with the warm weather.

Been installing updates and restarting my laptop since 8pm :mad:

First day of air quotes holidays was hectic, and I fully expect another week or two of it.
TA One part of it was taking dog to the vets for full run of vaccinations as he needs to be up to date for travelling, and although I had clearly said on booking I needed all vaccines ticked and done, when we got there they said they were out of kennel cough, last one gone the same day, so now I've to go back there tomorrow.

Only counting the back and forth between our 2 local towns and our home, it was slightly above 120 km driving today, and now that I've to return to vets tomorrow, it'll be another +120 km tomorrow, possibly a bit less rushed if I'm lucky.

Tough going day after taking Mtx too.

Herpes Free Since03

Oh MTX... 20mg a week for me...not fun.

My TA is the bargain alerts on Gillette razors...you always have someone popping up screaming use a DE blade.... absolute idiots
How do you know someone uses a DE razor?
Coz they tell you...again....and again...and again!

CrowdedHouse

Was I telling you I use a DE razor and I don't know whether to be TA'd or just laugh at what some pay for multi bladed face destroyers.

Figured now that it was the dog, the smell is gone and this stupid mutt probably just ate something it really shouldn't have eaten.

Every warm spell during the summer there always seems to be a drowning accident in this country. While my heart goes out to the families of the two young lads who died yesterday, there just seems to be a complete lack of awareness when it comes to safety outdoors.

And we've even got to the stage of putting out reminders to grown adults during "festival season" to apply suncream/bring rain-gear to the event as if people are completely incapable of checking the weather in advance and taking appropriate action.

Actually, that reminds me of another TA. "Festival season". Built up in the media as some sort of compulsory life-experience when in reality they resemble a POW camp with young people often off their heads on yokes, inevitable rain and inhumane toilet facilities.

people typing and refusing to use capitals at the start of sentences, or at all.

especially in work emails.

it is very irritating.

bang of, "im too important to press shift when typing".

Bredabe

The boysib I stay with when I'm in regional HQ got his twice-yearly blood's back.
All good, has lost weight and has the cholesterol of 'a vegetarian' according to the Dr.

TA? This is because of the dietary changes I passed on from my time with a dietician, not, of course, a word of thanks. I'm not having good results at all! Freaking sugar addiction/procrastination.

Someone turned off the ad blocker on one of the girls' computers, she has some cookies from when she was looking for info after her mis, now she is being swamped by all kind of triggering images. I can see her regressing in front of me from this kind of exposure.

Typically happens when you have 3g and Wifi at the same time, but the wifi is blocked via a login or 'click OK' page ... turn off wifi and see if it works...

The missus is working from home today, from the kitchen. I can't put on the washing machine and I get murderous glances if I even go in to get a drink. She's on calls all day so I'm trying to be as quiet as possible.

Sephiroth_dude

Was in Dunnes today and I passed this woman giving out cans of Heineken alcohol free cans (yuck for Heineken in general), she asked if I would like one, I said no thanks and smiled at her, well you'd swear I just turned down the offer of a million euros with the way she looked at me, she looked very offended that I declined.

TA #1 Listening via headphones* to happy tunes on my phone whilst eating. Brushing errant crumbs off my chest and ripping the fcuking buds out of my fcuking ears for the upteenth fcuking time.

TA #2 Standing on aforementioned headphones*.

TA #3 Collating (for irrelevant purposes related to this TA) YouTube videos today. Allianz, I will never, *ever* avail of your insurance.

(* Yay, €1.50 Dealz headphones ftw)

It's trivially annoying how much more times we need to wash bodies and clothes (especially bed clothes) in this heat.
On the bright side, there's great saving on the tumble dryer!

I'm a lot like my printer, I only work half the time and when I do I'm very temperamental and my output varies. But I am iPhone compatible!

Kitty6277

My face has been really dry all day and it's really irritating me! My face never gets dry, and I've no idea what's causing it

Dramatik

TA I've somehow gotten a single drop of what looks like oil on my suit trousers, no idea of where it could have come from. To make matters worse I just got them dry cleaned last week. I also don't finish till six so I have to deal with it sitting there mocking me asking to be cleaned.

People who think that because they know about some massive event within their own tiny bubble that everyone else automatically knows too.

My friends are meant to be coming over for predrinks before we head out, but they’re running late.
I was bored so I ate all the snacks I bought us and now I feel fat and gross.
Wish they’d hurry or I’ll be too drunk to leave the couch :pac:

TA at my lack of self control.

Went out for 1/2, woke up with one shoe on, one shoe off.

Gwynplaine

Got a meal the other night served on a chopping board, then the dessert came out on a slate. Maybe I'm getting old, and I'm not "down with the kids" on food trends, but that's just wrong.
Skinny jeans with the 2 knees ripped out of them, no socks, and those outdoor slippers, on 90% of young lads, also the half haircuts. I bet in a few years, they'll look back and cringe, just like I did looking back at the xworx, eclipse, Petro motion phase.

KatW4

People who try to talk to me on the train. I am so awkward talking to people and I hate having to talk to people I don't know. I can't be rude so I always reply and then they think they can start full scale conversations with me. Leave me alone

When you’re doing a clear out and jamming everything into a black bag only to lift it up and the whole side of it rips and everything’s out on the floor ffs
