Not a good day

[vilakins]

Crap. It was hot and sticky and now it's winter again with torrential rain. Which of course means that this room is leaking.

I got soaked today, I can't find anyone who sells liquid castile soap (because I want to try not using shampoo), it looks like they no longer make my favourite snack (salsa cassava chips), a bitch driving a tank parked so close to my car I had a hard time getting in (while getting soaked) while she sat there and watched, and I put the ice cream in the fridge instead of the freezer last night. And the book I'm reading really isn't cheering me up at all.

I'm so pissed off. I want something to go right. I want something fun to look forward to.

Oh, I'm sorry you had such a bad day, that's rubbish.

I'm trying to think of something fun that might cheer you up. Um, I'll get back to you! (although I do always recommend Mythbusters)

Here's a cool picture of the Statue of Liberty in construction!

That's extremely cool! She's a sternly handsome lady.

Today has been better. We went out and finally found the cheap camping chairs we've been looking for for ages, and got some yummy stuff from the British expatriate shop. Yay. They even have Fry's chocolate oranges so I know where to go now when I want some.

It's been very wet here too for the last few weeks, but at least my roof is waterproof (touch wood).

We've tried to fix this several times. It's only during downpours from a certain direction, but it scares me. I just hope the bloody roof doesn't rot and fall in one day.

*squish* I'm sending you lots of huggles and Noki just looked at the screen and started nuzzling it and purring very loudly. Wish I could do more than that:/. *more huggles*

awwww *hugs*

The book is all my fault as well.

No it's not! Look, you did warn me, and I decided to read it between a light detective one and some SF. The timing is entirely my fault. At least he's up and about again and doing a different sort of stealing.

Really, I was depressed already. The book just failed to cheer me up the way a bit of escapism usually does.

Thanks. :-) [hugs back]

Awwww! Cats know. [hugs to you both]

I'm going to bed now. I'll probably feel better in the morning.

God, sounds very stressful. I would have given her the two finger salute. Urban tractors! Don't let the shampoo thing be a negative - I can't find that soap stuff either.

Also, not a good day at Wellington.

Tabitha is sitting next to me and purring noisily, so I'm sure she sends some of that your way.

It's the weekend! Time with Greg perhaps? Will that cheer you up?

Around here, all the health food shops have liquid castile soap--could you ask one near you to order some from their suppliers? (Mind you, around here health "food" shops sell tons of cosmetics and toiletries, so if the ones near you just sell food then their suppliers might not have any.)

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

Oh, phew. What's the light detective story?

[zoefruitcake.livejournal.com]

yep, sounds like an awful day
What a bitch for not moving - grrrr
hugs and I hope tomorrow is much better x

*hugs* Sorry you had such a wretched day. It seems like it all comes down on you at once. (And not just the rain).

Here's an amusing cat vid. Maybe it will cheer you up.

*hugs* Hang in there! I know sometimes the universe is out to get you, don't let it win!

[luinielle.livejournal.com]

*hugs* So sorry you had an awful day! Days like that are just not fun. As for the tank driving witch - karma is a bitch. :o)
Liquid castile soap - I think I've seen it over at drugstore.com, if you don't mind shopping for it online.

*Hugs* It will pass and all will be good again. It was just "one of these days". Mňau and Mrrrr.

The first in the Hamish Macbeth series. He's a seemingly lazy Highland constable who does a little poaching on the side to help feed his many sibs. I got it out because I'm enjoying the Agatha Raison series and they're by the same author. Agatha is in her 50s, short, plain, and bluntly rude, and she's great apart from her obsession with marrying romance. Hamish is a n equally good character in a different way. Anyway, they're light, amusing, and can be eaten in one sitting. I will have to order more.
