I Just Don’t Understand.

Ranting 0 Comment »

I simply just can’t understand why my father loves to drive me insane. There has to be some reason why he either purposely does things, or cannot seem to “remember” not to do them. Everyday, over and over the same thing happens.

Months ago my father finally decided to sell his car. He never drove it, and the convertible top had started to leak so it had been bound to a life in the garage; of which it never moved for almost a year. He finally told me that if I could sell it I could park my car in the garage in its place (seeing as how his truck is too big to fit in the garage anyway). Months went by and no offers on the stupid car, and then finally someone bought the damn thing. Now I can park in the garage! I should be happy and ecstatic; key word being ’should’.

Every day when my father comes home from work, he parks the behemoth of a truck right behind my car so there is no way I can leave to go anywhere. I bitch and complain constantly about it, yet every day over and over he either can’t “remember” not to, or for some reason he just has to be inconsiderate. Hearing the garage door in the afternoon, knowing its him coming home makes my blood pressure go through the roof, and I get an instant migraine from it.

I want to move, god help me I just want out. What is the point of being able to get in the garage if my car sits there for weeks because I can’t ever get it back out. I could rummage through my mom’s purse and find the other set of keys and move it (every time), or I could just park in the street (which would be stupid too). What really pisses me off is when it was the other way around; and he still drove his car. I NEVER blocked him in, I was ALWAYS courteous about it and made sure he could get out of the garage. Apparently when the shoe is on the over foot it would rather kick my ass for ’sport’.

I think the headache pills have finally started to kick in. Ugh, he is such a jackass.

I just had to vent today, and I know I sound like a teenager, but I’m not. I’m just one of those people that when the same button gets pushed over and over and over and over again whatever miniscule “thing” it actually is turns into a BIG deal to me.

Revalation

Random, Ranting 0 Comment »

I’ve had this big revalation (right this minute actually) of which proves that the people that design and create products aren’t the people that actually use them. Let me feed your minds here. What moron keeps putting the cords on upright vacuum cleaners at the bottom? I know I am not the only one that has to hold the cord in my hand (the same hand that is holding the handle mind you) to keep it from sucking it up and getting in the way. If the cord came out of the top of the handle it would already be where we have to hold it and you wouldn’t have to bend over to unwrap it. The damn vacuum has been around for how many decades and we haven’t fixed this? I don’t have a damn dyson but I wouldn’t think this would need that much research to do people. Just proves that the men who design and build vacuums obviously aren’t the ones that have to use the bitches, am I right housewives? I thought so. I bet a woman came up with he roomba; probably Peggy Bundy (my hero). Where’s Oprah?

Wordpress Plugin Woes.

Web-site Related 0 Comment »

I use to have this wonderful plugin for wordpress; actually I still have it but it no longer works. It’s called “Facebook Comments” and its sole purpose is to poll facebook for comments on any of my “notes” and pull them along with the Author’s name and date and add them into the matching posts in wordpress. Since Facebook automatically pulls my blog via its own RSS-feed it use to be seamless; well it had a delay between everything catching up with each other, but within 24 hours everything lined up. I was happy with the small delay, it wasn’t a big deal. As long as everything got put in its correct place I was happy.

Unfortunately I believe the developer has given up on updating the plugin to work with Facebook’s ever-changing API, and Wordpress’ constant updates. For the longest time it just worked and I was thankful it did everything I wanted, but now its broken. =(

So I’m sending out a cry for help to the world, both of Wordpress and Facebook. Does anyone know of a similar plugin, or hell even a way to replicate what use to be great? I know it seems stupid, but people actually do read and comment on my blog via the “notes” that show up in facebook and the news feeds; but most people that actually travel to my blog may read it, but usually don’t leave comments. At the risk of looking like a complete loser I’d like to have my blog reflect that sharing my life isn’t an utter waste. While I do believe most things I ramble about only pertain to my interests its nice when others add their $.02 and I’d like to reflect it! So please, if you or someone else knows a way to do what I want please let me know!

–Kevin.
