I left my earbuds at my house so now I can't watch iron man 3 on my phone for the next 4 hours of nothing.

I couldn't sleep last night because my boyfriend insisted on giving me a back rub :'(

I was in bed early, sound asleep, when he finally came to bed... rather than just going the fuck to sleep, he decided to start rubbing my back, waking me up from a sound sleep. 5 minutes later, he was snoring away, but now I'm up and couldn't fall back asleep until like 3 am.

My iHome alarm clock (the one with an iPhone dock) woke me up at 6:00 this morning, and I had to actually get up and press the snooze button on it because I couldn't find the remote control for it.

Now if that isn't a first world problem, I don't know what is.

I'm installing Windows 7 on an old Gateway 3GHz P4 because the department that has this computer has no money for a new computer until June.

That's not really the problem - the problem is, this computer is running good enough that they'll probably put off buying a new machine altogether.

Company just updated their BYOD policy and I can no longer bring a rMBP to work. This is a problem, not because I have a rMBP, but because I was planning on buying one and using it. Now, I can't justify my purchase. =(

Also, an eBay item I bought is being shipped USPS so it will take forever...

My ridiculously cheap office rent went up $10.

Had to cancel my blood work appointment because I have jury duty tomorrow.

Might have to cancel my deep tissue massage appointment next Tuesday so I can get my blood work done.

My Mom, bless her heart, kept calling the cable company for a HD box. Unmarked packages would arrive and she wouldn't open them because she thought they were for my deceased Dad's cpap machine. I take 2 back this a.m. and the csr asks about the other 3....

they sent out an email saying there were leftover bagels/snacks in the conference room from a meeting this morning... but by the time I got there, everything was gone, so I have to eat my leftover chicken and rice for lunch instead

although, I may still go out and take a walk to Starbucks for coffee/dessert, though.

Hard to follow what you are saying but I think you are saying the company has a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) to work policy and that you can't bring a rMBP(Retina Mac Book Pro) to work with you now.

Um.. is that right? Just bring your smart phone. What's the issue?

Wasn't today but yesterday on the commute home my car stopped syncing correctly with the Pandora app so I had to use generic bluetooth mode for the entire 20 minute drive. I could skip songs but couldn't see what the song was

Need to watch more TV. DVR is filling up and I won't be able to record any shows next week if I don't clear some space.
