Biz---- I was yelling at my phone just yesterday with the automated crap. I want to talk to a human being!
Cob a that I feel bad about feeling: even though you know someone loves you and just wants to help.... I'm peeved with my unemployed state and have my ups and downs accordingly. It's like the truest lesson of not taking things personally. With that said, Loved ones who tell you not to lay around in your jammies all day feeling sorry about yourself. "....who tell you to cherish this time of not working and being able to lay around in your jammies all day... Ugh. I want money so I can buy a couch. okay. I'm grateful to have them... but I'm slightly tired of all the pep talks, namely because its Pep talks from people with jobs who are tired of pep talking to people without them, really. roar. |

i feel you on that one tesao! but those dial automated services are soooo much better than the ones that make you speak in order to get the proper extension. as if i'm fooled by the mechanical voice that says, 'what would you like to do today? say....' and if you swear at it, it just says, 'i'm sorry, i didn't understand.' i was on the phone with UPS like that and eventually i screamed, 'i want to talk to a human being!' and i was magically connected. makes me think they are monitoring them or something....

Procrastinating for a week (or a month...) and then getting sick right when I really need to be getting to work. Shit.

at the risk of sounding like a luddite:
COB: dialing a business and getting the "if you are bla bla, press 1, if you are blablabla, press 2"....ad nauseum. none of the options are what you are calling about. you don't press ANYTHING. so the business hangs up on you. gah. urge.to.scream. |

COB: People chewing with their mouth open!!!! I hate to hear food slopping around in somebody's mouth. Its worse than nails on a chalkboard. And utterly disgusting and rude.
COB 2: Poor hygiene. I hate it especially when someone does NOT brush their teeth, then want to talk to you or get right in your face. YUCK!!!!! Your breath smells like hot roasted garbage, get out of my face. COB 3: People that show up to your house unannounced!! The telephone works, and if we dont answer, that means we dont want to talk to you! Wooo, okay I feel better now! LOL -------------------- Faith is hoping for and believing in things you cannot see!

I'm really awful at checking my voicemail too. Usually I figure that if it's urgent, the person will call back and if it's not, then nothing lost.
Cob: People who don't know how to use apostrophes correctly. I try not to get hung up on grammar and spelling, but sometimes this really irks me. I can't stand it when people spit and it sounds like they're horking up something. For some reason, sounds gross me out more than images. I can stand seeing someone spit, but the sound bothers me. -------------------- All I know is that I don't know nothing.--Op Ivy

SPAM. No I don't want fucking C!alis, V1agra, or whatever the fuck penis pump you are peddling. Thank goodness for gmails spam filter.
Hackers. These little douchebags need to get a fucking life. Move out of your mom's basement, please. Spitting too disgusts me. People who call and call and call. As soon as they get the voicemail, then hang up and call again. Hey, you could be a telemarketer with skills like that! People who mark voicemails are urgent. You ahve a hangnail, it's not fucking urgent. Your hosue burning down is urgent, and then why are you calling me to tell me, call the fire department!!!! -------------------- Hatred does not cease in this world by hating, but by not hating; this is an eternal truth. --- Buddah, The Dhammapada

cob: my sweetie (who has an awful cold) insisting that covering her mouth when she coughs and actually washing her hands with soap does nothing to keep from sharing her cold. therefore, i have her fucking cold. dumb ass.

Thanks, Swedishchick... I might take you up on that offer, but first I'm going to try to get through to the clinic recommended to me by the nice lady at exchange student services.

Yep.. can do a regular doctor if you don't have a history of irregular paps... which I have a history, soo...they recently told me that I have a slight problem (?) huh? but no need to worry about it for the next 6 months! I'm getting a new gyn. here in K-town anyway cause my doc in NC was SO impersonal. I miss my NYC doc.
Off topic but... cob= my mother jesting with me in front of the rest of the family during the holiday about how I'm childless and single. thanks mom, but modern times call for modern measures. cob= that I can't be honest with my family about the fact that I'm dating a wonderful man....who happens to be african-american. can't be honest cause they are rascist, southern simple-minded bigots. WTF!!!!!!!! I am disgusted cause I moved to TN to be closer to my family in the first place and now this crap. disappointing to say the least.  sigh... |

Well, in my experience it's just been that I go to my regular doctor for my pap smear and full physical checkup. If there was ever a problem then they would send me to a gyno.

Candycane_girl- that's not really true. At home I just go to the free clinic for all my regular tests, and also if I have some kind of specific problem- but maybe that's different from having your "own" gyno? Anyway, it works.
I don't have a regular doctor here. Tried to see one, and that's when I started being given the runaround. Although for women who are citizens here and used to the system, I'm sure it's easier. |

unless you have some unusual gynecological issue or are uncomfortable with your regular dr., could you go to your regular doctor for a pap smear? That's what I do.
Either way, that is kinda ridiculous. -------------------- You went to school where you were taught to fear and to obey, be cheerful, fit in, or someone might think you're weird.
Life can be perfect. People can be trusted. Someday, I will fall in love; a nice quiet home of my very own. Free from all the pain. Happy and having fun all the time. It never happened, did it? |

Edie52, when I lived abroad I had a half Spanish half Portuguese roomie, so I understand you language barrier in the femme front. She got her period first, she was unsure of what to do with her detritus when she changed her pad as there were no bins in any of the three loos. After twenty minutes of five languages she finally blurted out in shaky English, "What every woman has!" They gave us individual bags to throw or menstrual trash in. Heaven for fend the men know we bleed.
