I've hit a snag in my new layout. I was a stupid fucktard and assumed that I could just keep my settings on Paint Shop Pro on my personal computer. Well, the brilliant sister assumed that I had my settings remembered an saved.
I can't remember phone numbers 5 seconds after having someone tell me them. What made her assume I would remember settings such as how dense, in pixels, a drop shadow blur would be?
I've had a major blow up over it. It's not that easy to get over right now. These were cute graphics I had. I liked them. It's so hard for me to actually like something I make. And the thought of having to remake the ones I had made ALL OVER AGAIN is pissing me off. I had to liken what these graphics meant to me to my mother spending all day preparing her eBay money orders only to have the brilliant Beth walk in and spill Coke over every single money order. Otherwise, I don't think my mother would have understood my side. Right now, I doubt she still understands how I'm feeling.
I don't have much going on for me at the moment. I know my life sucks. I know I have no life. But to have something little that brings me joy ruined because of some fucktarded sister that doesn't give a shit about anything, really, really hurts.
I'll have the graphics redone; I'm not worried about that. It's the fact I have to redo them at all is what hurts.
Other then this mess created by the brilliant Beth, I did have a nice weekend. We had guests over last night and then some more guests over all day. However, all it takes is one inconsidered brat to ruin a weekend for me. ![]()

amen to that sista! i know exactly how you're feeling right now.
don't EVEN get me started on what i have to go through with my family!!
i'll just give a teensy review-- (and that's just this weekend!)
1. Cleaned up my brother and my mom's mess in the kitchen AGAIN and AGAIN(loaded dishwasher, swept floor, vacuumed rug, cleaned counters) BEFORE I was able to bake a fabulous Buttered Rum Cheesecake. Was pissed but did what I had to do. I cleaned up my OWN mess myself. The lazy family members I live with had messed up the kitchen by 9 in the morning. You wouldn't have known I'd cleaned it...every single night this week.
2. My facial scrub got stolen from the bathroom AGAIN, even when my name was on it because my bro's friend who practically sleeps over every night doesn't realize it's not his. And my bro won't say anything to him about it because as he tells me, "Shit, you're so fucking selfish and that ain't right!" While we're on the subject of bathrooms, he shows NO respect for the amount of my time, money and energy that went into making it look like a bathroom and not a gas station-y hole in the wall like it had degenerated into. This really enrages me because if it's not the kitchen, I go upstairs to find peace and order in MY bathroom only to find it looking like hell, and all I'm told by my mom is, "There's nothing I can say or do. Sorry."
3. They wonder why I LABEL my drinks in this house or ask permission to drink anything that's in the fridge. If I were to take a drink that wasn't mine, they are so quick to tell me "I was saving that for later! How inconsiderate can you be! Not everything is yours, you know!" Well, let me just say I am the only ATHLETE in this house. I had a big thing of Gatorade in the fridge that I'd opened up the night before(because my bro drank my AriZona Green Tea without asking, my Snapple Peach Tea without asking and ALL the bottled water in the house without leaving ANY for me!). I labelled it with my name and "Don't drink this!" I come back from my nine mile run today, glad that I had at least some kind of beverage still in the fridge. Nope. He drank it. Wow, I didn't know you could work up a huge sweat sleeping 14 hours and playing computer games for the other 10! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
sorry, your venting was contagious. *big hug*
Posted by: misbah kyrene f. at December 22, 2002 10:57 PMI guess I was lucky.. I did't have a computer when I still lived with my sisters. But Hubby does do things that tick me off.. Like change the computer config. on the old one and made it a POS... I had to working right.. he messed it up. I yelled at him and told him to NOT touch the configuration unless he asks me first!! Caused a pretty big argument at the time.. LOL
Posted by: Dragon at December 22, 2002 11:33 PMI was very livid, angry,
with my sister last night, I was calling her every dang name in the book. (
:yuckfou
It's not like she's a three-year-old on the computer. She's 15 years old and should know better! But she's a spoiled brat! Well guess what, she screwed herself out of using my computer again.
I know when I use someone else's stuff, I try to leave things back the way I fond them. It's just courtesy!
And Misbah - get your own little fridge and then lock it! That will show your brother! He would have no excuse then to drink your drink other than to be a theif!
Posted by: Shawn at December 23, 2002 11:37 AMlol. i thought of that...my own little fridge just for drinks and snacks like baby carrots and such. it would have to be in my room which would mean i'd have to get a loft bed which right now seems out of the question. but if it gets that bad again, i will definitely tell my mom how much i NEED that loft bed just for space to keep my rabbits' castle AND a fridge for me. good suggestion.
beyond that, no locked fridges downstairs
