Got elected to hang 6 blinds for the in laws. Gather tools, skip out of work and they didn't measure the opening right. The blinds are 1" too short. Looks like I get to mount 2 1/2" blocks of wood on each window frame before I mount the bracket. Waste of a good opportunity to go home for a nap.

I actually tried the Burger King first, but holy shit, worse bathroom in the country: blood in the sink, pee on the floor, unflushed toilets, toilet paper everywhere. Was afraid I got an STD just being in there to decide, "no way".

I always judge the quality of an establishment by how much blood I find in their bathroom sinks. None? Fuck that, they're trying to cover something up here. No one is that clean. Ideally, it will look like someone had a botched organ transplant over every conceivable surface. That's a bathroom I can trust.

A stock account was unbalanced, so I had to spend $30 to redistribute stuff.

I had to program my thermostat to save energy. Took me about 5 minutes and and a lot of patience. POS should know I never leave the house on most Sundays so why ask?

My internet hasn't been working at home for two days. Tech was coming so I asked my dad to deal with, as I couldn't take the day off. So he goes out and lets my Mom take care of things. It's now gone from bad to worse. I still have no internet.

Meh, still better than renting. If I'm going to dump over a grand a month into something, might as well own the place. I'm only sticking around because the housing market is so precarious right now.

I was getting my internet upgraded to a faster speed because I want to do some podcasting and streaming stuff, which is hard with a 1mbps upload. Somewhere along the line somebody completely fucked everything up and neither my indie ISP or Bell Canada (who's lines they use) are taking responsibility. Looks like it's back to the cable company.

I'm getting neffing withdrawal symptoms though. I can only surf at work. Thank god I have free access here. They can't choke me off because I'm the unofficial social media coordinator on top of my normal job.

Saving money is not a first world problem. You don't belong in this thread!

Savings or not, this is why people move out.

I hear ya. They're out having a good time all day (retired) yet I cover their utilities. Bank's only giving my a $200k mortgage so I needed a much bigger down payment that I originally anticipated. Especially if I don't want a shoe box in the ghetto.
