I'm glad it's not just me. I get notifications that people have commented on my posts, etc., but I can't see any of the comments. I try to comment on things and I never see them appear.That facebook is acting up. Meh. Random chunks of conversations disappearing, and a couple multi-paragraph messages were eaten as I hit send.

You can include me in the "facebook-screws-up" list as well; mine tends to block some profiles and applications from time to time, and also takes some time to load people's comments to wall posts.
Who controls the British crown? Who keeps the metric system down?
We do! We do!
Who leaves Atlantis off the maps? Who keeps the Martians under wraps?
We do! We do!
Who holds back the electric car? Who makes Steve Gutenberg a star?
We do! We do!
Who robs cavefish of their sight? Who rigs every Oscar night?
We do, we do!

I just did it, thanks for the idea.
Now on to things I hate:
- the "Rabbit Cacciatore" daily special sign in front of a local italian restaurant
- when new products come out in "healthier" versions with more fiber or whole grain or whatever but then ruin it by substituting the sugar with some artificial sweetener. *gag*
- when my nostrils get so dry inside that it hurts to breathe
- the smell of my bin of superworms

I don't hate that rabbits are food, but I hate when people make comments about rabbits being food around my rabbit. "Oh, lol, I'm so clever. lmao." Seriously. It's like making fun of my last name. I've heard it before, and it's still not funny.

surprise rainstorms on a saturday you flew to another state and you're supposed to be going to a theme park with your family. :-p
also, resumes, applying for jobs, out-dates (one week and two more days, damn), and calling asking other people for jobs.
And paying for job search sites.

I hate applying for jobs
I hate the whole getting a job process including getting the job sometimes
Also I am reminded of the time I tried to go to an interview at some temp place that was trying to court me.
The second I got off the train, buckets of rain poured down on me.
I was drenched to the skin.
I went all the way home on several trains soaked, walked home to find NO RAIN AT ALL!
I do not like having to walk in extreme weather.

Not having Bernie-bunny around to explode fur all over my apartment, nudge me with his nose, trying to break into my room over and over, digging under my door, saying hi to me in the bathroom, dancing around, annoying me by ripping the news paper I used to line his litter box, having to change his gross litter in the first place is deeply depressing and I hate it.
I definitely miss all the things about having a rabbit. Even the frustrating things like paying a ton of money to get him to a good vet... Well, maybe not that so much, as that was a bad sign.
I do miss his angry grunts when I tried to brush him. They were funny.

Bleh, I hate how it's warm outside and then I go to school and it's freezing cold that I have to wear layers and a sweater.
I also hate how much University tuition costs so much!! How the hell am I ever supposed to pay for it all?
Oh and honey. I can't stand honey. It's not even sweet!!

When I'm scanning through my radio stations and catch the very end of a song I really like. If I had just turned to that station a few minutes earlier instead of settling on a song I only sorta like!

Right now, my back. I wanted to cry from the pain at work, am missing one of the last exercise classes I can go to because of it, and will likely end up in Urgent Care, which will cost an arm and a leg even though I have insurance. f****** hell.
Also, I hate feeling rejected.

This idiot I'm on the phone with.
The fact that the money that I requested did not transfer to my debit card like it always does, so I have no money that I was kind of counting on.
The IDIOT I am on the phone with. Well, on hold now.
I swear, I got about 20 minutes of her telling me that no such record existed. Well, ma'am, gee golly, that's all fine and good. And what I am telling YOU is that I made the transaction, I got an email from your people confirming the transaction, and I have a transaction number. So, instead of telling me that it doesn't exist, how about you tell me why that might be and start trying to do something about it?
And then she suddenly sees it, "Oh, there it is," but it's on hold. She cannot tell me any reasons why on earth that might be.
I am a teensy bit ticked off. I should not be annoyed, really. She's obviously not a people person, and stuck in a crappy job. And she is probably new at this job. Still. Why couldn't I have gotten on the phone with someone who knows what they are doing?

I am sick and tired of Citrix's crap and a sleeping IT department when I'm trying to do homework that depends on it. Two nights in a row Maple has frozen on me while I was running it over Citrix and when I go back to the Citrix Web Interface to relaunch it I get a notice saying my account is locked. Reading for the next half hour while my account resets.

Quoted for... understanding, I suppose.That there is no way for me to know for sure whether she is still here or not and thus I can't feel free to post everything I'd like to.
At times I am frustrated by certain limitations on my freedom of posting here. But I remind myself it is self-imposed, and I wouldn't have the current situation any other way. [Edit: er, so, that's not really the same at all. Just felt like saying it here, though.]

I HATE CHECKS! If I had gotten paid LAST WEEK I would NOT have had to-
Go to the food bank
I would not have had to BOUNCE A CHECK!
It's ridiculous! It was a check for 4.60, I'm short by a small amount. Less than 2 dollars AND THEY CHARGE ME 25 DOLLARS FOR THAT!
What the hell? I'm broke until Friday and I get PUNISHED for not having money!
Checks are like time bombs.
Bad enough I sold something on ebay I paid 100 dollars for and this person gets it for 8! AUGH

Early release days. I had to kick 3 kids out of the library today for misbehaving (cussing, shutting the computers down to cut into their "friends'" time, running, screaming or otherwise being loud, using the family restroom to play and do God knows what else in). Next Wednesday I'm taking in a cross and my holy water.

You totally need to join the library_mofo livejournal group, Alea. Have I mentioned it before?
I hate being sick! My head feels like it's stuffed with cotton balls and my throat feels like it's stuffed with razor blades.
And I have to do Storytime tomorrow with a crappy voice. Boo.
