annoyed.

today, i am annoyed. here's why:

one: my graduate program does not let people freely enroll in courses, but instead assigns courses to you and this process takes months. my current job interviews are just laughable.s

employer: "tell me about your availability."
me: "well, i think i will have class on mondays and wednesdays, but if i don't get an add code for class a, then i will have to take course b and then i'll have class tuesdays instead of mondays. but if i get into class b and not class c, i will have to take class d and that will give me a tuesday, thursday, friday courseload."

two: i purposefully wait until 10 am to leave for school to avoid the rush hour mayhem. and yet, because of the holiday's coming up, i hit a plethora of traffic at every freeway exit that leads to a shopping mall or outlet center.

three: someone today actually said she had always wanted to attend a "mardi grass" party. yes, she said "grass." and i told her that "marti grass" did not exist and she shouldn't hold her breathe for an invitation. she thought i was being funny.

four: my term paper is due THIS monday, not next monday.

five: i had to lock my kittens in our bedroom for "random apartment inspections" that i'm still aren't sure are totally legal but i can't argue it to the leasing office because they open after i leave and close before i get home.

six: i have a cold.

seven: parking at school was bad.

eight: i've lost my favorite (and expensive) sunglasses.

and now the fact that i can't get to an even list of ten is annoying me.

tomorrow, i promise to do a happier list. but for the remainder of today, this is me:

grrrrrrrr.
