Here's mine: I fucking got laid off today. All I want to do right now is punch things or drink. Or both.

Ugh, that sucks. You have my sympathies. Same thing happened to me two weeks ago.

Aw thanks/sorry friend. How's your search for a new one going?

You're welcome, and thanks to you in turn.

It's going. Put my resume out there in a few places, and I've got a couple applications I'm going to drop off this week, too. Keeping fingers crossed.

Hope your job search goes well for you.

Sorry to hear it, anon. Did they give you any reason, or was it just "haha ok bye"?

My rant: WHY CAN I NOT SHAKE THIS FUCKING COUGH, GODDAMN

I'm so sorry. We've got the same shit going down in my workplace, and even though I escaped this round, it's depressing and demoralizing and sad. I truly hope you find something quickly, hopefully moving on to bigger and better things.

I'm sorry. That sucks some seriously bloated balls.

I also lost my job recently. Spent the days after crying but it gets better eventually. Hang in there, anon!

Somehow a raccoon got in the house and I don't know when. Maybe before the cold front came in Thursday? But I only heard it running around today. And I haven't gotten it back outside yet. Argh.

Oh, fun.

We have a mouse chilling inside our stove, mostly inside the burners. We're planning on getting a new stove, but we need an exterminator to come and investigate the mouse situation, too (so we can make sure he doesn't get into said new stove whenever we get it). But they're kind of pricey, so...yeah. Trying to sort that out.

NAYRT, and I'm glad, because cute as they are, raccoons are destructive little shits. But when we got mice in our stove, I used to plop our cat on the kitchen counter next to the stove and pet him until he settled down to doze. It took awhile, but one day the cat noticed something--noise, smell, whatever--and started paying really close attention to the stove without my coaxing him up there. Shortly after, the mice were gone (finding random tails and feet and skulls for a couple weeks after was gross but eh.) So do you have a cat or can you borrow a mouser from anyone? Good luck with your unwanted houseguests either way.

nayrt

Gory mouse parts are meant to show you that they care!

but just to amplify this advice, make sure you get an experienced mouser. Based on the professional way my cat slaughtered his catnip mice when he was just a tiny thing, I'd have thought he was born knowing how to mouse. (He came from barn cats, after all.) But he made a terrible job of his first real mice. And he looked ever so serious and attentive, crouching down on the basement steps...but he alternated that with marching up and down yowling, as if to announce that William The Bloody, The Living Death Of Vermin, was on the prowl, and the mice should lock up their daughters. It took him quite a while to get the hang of it.

We do have a cat, yes! She's the one who sniffed out we had a mouse in there well before I ever saw it-she did the whole "staring at the stove" thing, too. My mom has yet to see the mouse, though-she's very wary whenever she goes into the kitchen, 'cause she's absolutely terrified of mice. I'm not happy one's in our stove, no, but I'm not scared of them like she is.

We've got a couple mouse traps set up there, though, 'cause my mom's REALLY not keen on our cat attacking the mouse and finding guts all over to clean up afterward (plus, we live in an apartment, so we don't really want to have that mess in a place we don't own, even though we'd clean it up). But if our cat does happen to catch it and get rid of it, hey, I won't complain.

nayrt, but have you got your staples in mouse proof containers? It's depressing to take a box of oatmeal or something off the shelf, only to discover that the corners of the box that were out of sight have been gnawed out and oatmeal (mixed with disgusting little mouse shits) is spilling everywhere. I like those bail-top glass jars--they can't even smell the contents then.

I found out my ex was indeed lying to me about almost everything he said about his 'group of male friends' who turned out to actually be just one female friend. He was basically seeing her on the side, and everything he had said to reassure me she was 'just a friend' when I found out she wasn't a 'group of guys' was a lie. I googled her name and looked at her public facebook, and there it was. I told him this and he flipped out and said I was wrong. I then told him I'd found her facebook and he told me I was a stalker and had invaded his privacy, and that -I- was wrong. He ended things with me there.

I don't see how looking at someone's public page was stalking, or how I was in the wrong when he was cheating/lying to me for months. I've never actually invaded his privacy, no read emails, or messages, or listened in on phonecalls. We had our separate lives, and I guess he's just complaining about privacy because he got caught red handed.

It would only be stalking if you went out of your way to view her FB content if she set it to friends only. Or obsessively checked up on it periodically. Checking her public page once to see if he was lying is just that: to see if he was lying to you. He's being the shitty one here. Sorry you're going through this anon.

Thank you~

Yeahhh, no, you are not in the wrong. He is very much in the wrong. I'm sorry that happened and I'm sorry he decided to try to deflect the blame when he got caught.

It sucks that that happened but I'm happy it happened now and not way in the future. You deserve better.

That sucks immensely, anon. I'm so sorry. :(
