    Construction

    Ooooo this morning I was mad. This morning, they were doing construction outside of my bedroom window. (Literally outside, I could have touched the worker if I didn't have a screen in place). It all had to do with the drunk guy that hit my building. I'll share the story later maybe if anyone wants it. I don't think I have yet.

    Anyways, I was a lil grouchy because they woke me up early, about 10. I know, doesn't seem early, but as a second shifter my days run different. I wasn't going to take it out on them though... Not their fault.

    Then came the cursing. Now, don't get me wrong, I can run a blue streak myself. But here were these guys, next to an open window. B*tch this and F*ck that and D*mn this and Sh*t that. Gar!!! Not just here and there, but almost constant.

    I asked them to stop and they did, but darn! Get a clue!

    The one WAS pretty hot though, lol

    Bus Mouth

    This one is kind of a combo of annoyance and praise.

    The other day, I was on the bus riding toward downtown, trying to read. This guy, must have been about 20, 22 kept trying to talk to me. He would NOT shut up. He was letting off a curse word here and there. I answered him in monosyllables, and hoped he'd get the hint. He didn't. Finally he said "You're not much of a talker, are you?" I said "No", and soon after he got off the bus.

    The guy behind me then said to me "Wow, he really had a dirty mouth, didn't he?" I replied "Yes, he just wouldn't shut up." That's when the guy came out with this gem, (keep in mind that this guy NOW speaking was in his late 20's early 30's) "You know, I was raised to watch my mouth. My mother would have slapped me silly to see me use my mouth like that in public, LET ALONE in front of a lady. Some idiots just have no manners!"

    And some men still do.

        Well as long as your happily taken by someone who treats you well it's all good.

            Update:

            The idiots have NOW done this THREE @&#! days in a row!
            Day 1- 10AM
            Day 2- 8:30AM
            Day 3- 9:30AM
            Day 4- 7:55AM
            Day 5- 8:30AM

            Idiots! They added a special treat this morning too.

            You know those basket things on the motorized cart things? I always called them "cherry pickers".. Probably not correct, but oh well.

            Now I live on top of a business. The door to the street is situated so that in order to look in one direction you have to step OUT on the sidewalk. That line of sight is blocked. Guess who was sitting over the sidewalk so that I couldn't see them and they couldn't see anyone leaving the apartment? Yep, you guessed it. I walk out the door and I'm 2 feet from the equipment and under the basket. Right after I dash out, the basket thing starts rolling, right where I would have been. No sighs, no tape, no warning, no nothing.

            IDIOTS!

              i would say that's definitely something to talk to the landlord/landlady about

              and now i'm missing my boyfriend's apartment in japan. when the building next door was doing construction, they posted "apologies" in my bf's building stating what hours they'd be making noise and on what day. And it wasn't much louder than the regular street traffic.


              tho... sometimes it does suck when guys are *too* gentle on us gals. I was in a training class at work ... the only female there. Every time the main instructors swore (usually the milder ones too) they'd look right at *me* and apologize. :?: sure they were trying to be polite & i did like the teachers but oy, my ears aren't *that* virgin. (and one of them did stop once he heard me use sh** in normal conversation) heh

                Yey for the real GENTS! Made me smile the other day on the bus... this guy stood up and chewed these 20somethings out, because they had told this little 13year old girl to "Why don't you shut the fuck up bitch"..... made me happy hearing them get put into their places.

                  That would be a "larch" I believe.

                      Thank you! I knew larch wasn't quite right, but I couldn't remember what it was or where to look!

                        Or a 'letch'. Loach or letch would both be correct.

                        'larch' is a rather pretty tree, native to temperate boreal forests.

                        1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
                        2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
                        3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
                        4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

                            But can you recognize it from quite a long way away?
