Post-Schna-ulations

Blargh!

Wow, nothing fun in the news today, I'm still getting over a cold, and my stupid credit card company has fucked me once again. I hate arguing with customer service people. I KNOW that their jobs are terrible, and I certainly feel for them, but it doesn't make talking to them any less unpleasant. I argue, I try to convince them that I did everything exactly the way I was supposed to, and when a stupid technical error occurs on their part, that I SHOULDN'T BE CHARGED THE DAMN FEE FOR IT! But they are powerless. Buggers.
Since I'm already bitching...
I once again experienced the obnoxious, LOUD cellphone bus rider yesterday. After a long day at work, during which I felt like crap, I get on the bus (got a seat!), hoping to just read my book on the way home. I make it one stop, when a girl sits down across from me, talking so loudly on her cellphone that I can't read. "blah blah...they left me a $0.53 tip...whaa whaa...oh my god....blah blah....like, i only make $2.83 per hour...blah blah blah...." *grrrrrr* I'm fairly good, when i'm reading, at tuning out background noise. This, however, just cut through in that obnoxious, whiny, barely post-pubescent, girly way.
*sigh*
Tonight, I do laundry. Is it foolish to wish for one uneventful laundry night? For one quiet ride home on the bus? For one hand grenade when I need it most? Yes, yes...I fear that it is.
