Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!
Reasons why Ashley is not in a good mood today:
1) Bought tickets to see Joss Stone over the internet last week. Today I discovered **** company has made a second attempt to get payment from me via my debit card, thus taking me over my overdraft limit (hello overdraft fees) Said company disputes making second attempt and Ashley resists a yearning to tell them what she thinks of them…Apparently it is an “outstanding” transaction and according to the nice lady at Barclays (the third person Ashley has spoken to at Barclays today) the money should be returned to her account…providing the company doesn’t try to “claim” it…If they do, it can be treated as a disputed transaction, and action can be taken, but still, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! This is exactly why Ashley HATES paying for stuff on-line, as it ALWAYS goes wrong.
2) People who are adverse to using their indicators when driving…Unfortunately, I do not possess psychic powers (if I did, I would have won the lottery long ago, and would now be the owner of Ashley’s Flying Machines, a fleet of well polished Spitfires) so I rely on other drivers using their indicators to let me know when they intend pulling out in front of me, or cutting me up (gives me more time to hit the horn :diablo: ) But seriously, people who trundle along in the inside lane, with a slow moving vehicle in front of them, who wait until I am nearly level with them (Ashley is allergic to the inside lane) until pulling out to overtake said slow moving vehicle, what a bunch of *******!
3) Continuing the vehicular theme, lorries that trundle along side by side, for miles while the traffic builds up behind them, and the lorry drivers are probably ******* themselves laughing…plus lorry drivers who also are allergic to using their indicators…I know not all lorry drivers are the same, some are extremely courteous and well driven (the same as car drivers, some are good drivers, some should never be let out of their straitjackets, never mind behind the wheel of a car)
4) Still on the motoring theme…stupid bloody girly cars like the Street Ka and that Citroen monstrosity, the Pluriel I think it’s called? (The one you can have in all direction formations) Yes I’m a girl, but I cannot stand girly wheels…and girly drivers…you know the ones who trundle along duel carriageways and motorways at 50mph in their little Micras and Ka’s, no doubt checking their lipstick every 1/2 mile, and listening to Justin Timberlake and Mcfly…the ones who wait until there is no traffic in a 50 mile radius before pulling out at junctions and on roundabouts…plus the ones who drive their kids around in stupid little girly jeeps, and need about 300 metres room to park the **** thing…
5) I have applied for another job with the Museum, and the waiting to hear if I have an interview is already driving me insane (and the closing date was last Friday) Although the post is only a temporary one (my current position would be held open for me) I really really really want the job (of Accessions Curator) as it is my ultimate goal in the Museum, and one I have been working hard for for three years (yes Bigglesworth, I do do some work occasionally ;))
6) I have a stinking headache…which won’t shift despite necking two lots of painkillers so far today…hopefully having a little vent might help :dev2: 😀 :diablo: :p
Rant endeth.
So what’s bugging you today? 😀
So you had a good day then…. 😉 😉 :diablo:
