Someone Run-Through That Storm Cloud Please?

Ya know, it wasn't enough I get beat up by a pissed-off medicine cabinet, then yesterday the Saturn's transmission decided to die. I cannot handle much more. Who has the wine, and whose buying because I will now be officially poor till hell freezes...

Someone put me out of my misery....

Why isn't there a "defeated" mood choice btw?

Well because it is hard to illustrate the look of defeat on a goat or sheep. There moods tend to all look the same and are very subtle.

  • Vacant stare while chewing - Anger
  • Vacant stare while chewing - Happiness
  • Vacant stare while chewing - Deep philosophical thought
  • Vacant stare while chewing - Resignation
  • Vacant stare while chewing - Defeatism
  • Panic look in eyes while baaaing! - A Scotsman close by

Seriously though sorry to hear about the car. I just went through the same thing with my car beginning of the month. Well not the transmission but other things that broke, or needed to be replaced, or etc. Unexpected expenses always suck.

As for me I am tied up through at least until september. Have 3 clients expecting work all to be done by September 1st. Of course they all just give me the material I have been requesting this week ... god I hate hurry up and wait follow by get it done now!

So wine in September unless I catch an unexpected break and have some free time.

*laugh* that was great and so true. Goats all do tend to have the same expression all the time. It has been decided that rather than fix the transmission we're just going to buy a new VUE. They can put him in a new one for around 1300.00 instead of fixing a car with 90k miles on it.

Makes more sense to me.

You are as busy as I am, but we both have to take some time at some point....*scold*

I think we both need a break, or at least a cave to hide in for a whle.

Take timing at some point for ourselves, definitely. Right now .. well I guess *scold* mode is on considering I just had a client email me that they want to see the shopping cart and interior pages by friday when the client hasn't even finish signing off on the look of the site (they keep tweaking things and changing mind). Sort of hard to build things when your not 100% sure what it is supposed to look like.

Soooooo ... still going to be tied up. Unless your medicine cabinet has a custom and takes on contract jobs. If you no what I mean? ;)

I'll allow the time for ourselves to slide for a while considering the circumstances....but only for a brief time. I start back to classes on Monday so I will be spreading my time out sparingly.

I say we kill all annoying clients and let them see what it's like to deal with scatterbrained people.

Awwwww, all tied up and I'm not the one doing the tieing? :( I'm sure we could hire out the cabinet for the right price....
