Today's Bad Stories !

[RoboG55]

Just learned dad's mom (her spouse is the one I talked about who died) has gallstones from her kidney. Things couldn't get worse; when mom's mom recovered from that, she got it!

My dad yelled at my brother for missing a ton of homework. Saying he's just a freeloader (Conan with a T_T face came into my head XD) and cussed and stuff. My dog got really scared; he was convulsing like mad. My dad called him a scaredy-cat and then came over to pet him (The irony). My brother locked himself in the bathroom to hide.

Also, yesterday a vaccuum fell on my mom's head and I started crying. Then my mom said nobody cared about her and I was crying for myself, not her. She got angry at me for that. T_T

Might have to go see a doctor at some point. I'm worried I'm getting stomach ulcers. I've been constantly stressed and blindingly angry on an increasingly regular basis for the past two months and now my stomach hurts constantly. I can't tell if it's just the state of anger becoming near-constant or if I'm actually hurting myself, but either way I should probably go see my GP.

D: You do what you need to be healthy, and I'll always be here if you need somebody to talk to

I can't imagine you as a constantly angry person I mean you always sound like a fun person who is enjoying her life.

Anyway, I hope all goes well with you and the GP would be helpful, as IMO GPs are just paid too much to do very little

Here's a stupid reference to a thing I know because it's relevant. I do hope you find it amusing.

though I don't necessarily recommend this idea

Ahhhh, I remember that game. That was a nostalgia rush and a half.

The reason why I am reaching a near-constant state of anger is very simple: Grant Property Management.

I'm not even angry at Robbie any more. He's just a giant wean who shouldn't have been let out of his parents' sight to go play on his own. Grant Property Management have a sodding legal responsibility to see that their tenants are living in a safe environment. Living with Robbie is NOT a safe environment, and as he's broken multiple aspects of the tenancy agreement on many occasions, the logical thing to do would be evict him, right?

Nope. Instead they bitch about how they can't evict him without evicting everyone because their contract is severely sodding stupid. So we tell them to do that and they tell us that they have to give THREE MONTHS' NOTICE for it. That's not eviction. Eviction is "if you're not out in three days you'll find all your shit in a pile on the curb, better grab it before Leithers start thieving it".

So Pie and I are so desperate to leave that we've done these assholes' jobs for them. We've moved out all of our stuff, found new tenants, and given all of their contact details to GPM. I gave those over a week ago and finally, for the first time since about, I don't know, early December, I started to relax a bit, thinking we were nearly free.

Yesterday afternoon I got phone calls from both of the new tenants. One was in tears because she had not been contacted by GPM and thought she wasn't getting the flat. The other was letting me know that, because GPM hadn't gotten in touch with her, she'd assumed she wasn't getting the flat and had taken a different one. They had spent the whole week bitching and whining about how they couldn't do anything without the new tenants getting back to them and they HADN'T EVEN CONTACTED THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.

This is the point where I had an epic breakdown. Screaming, crying, hyperventilation, trembling so badly I couldn't stand up, the whole bit. Probably a good thing I've moved all my stuff back home, because Mum was standing there making me breathe. The last time GPM drove me to this, I was alone in my flat and did actually black out from lack of oxygen. Thank goodness I didn't hit my head.

I am going to put this last bit under a cut because a subsequent phone call from GPM has turned all of my despair into a powerful burning rage and I found a couple of nasty words that the site doesn't automatically censor and I am going to use them to their fullest extent.

Spoiler:

Do you know what the absolute cunt on the other end of the line said? "You should be grateful to us. We don't have to do anything for you. This has been creating a lot of stress around the office."

Stress. You. Feel. Stressed.
ha.
Ha.
HA.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Are you cunts serious.

Y'know, I'm pretty sure you ARE legally sodding required to do something, you lazy cunts. Are you threatening to drop the case entirely? Is that meant to be a cunting threat? You absolute pieces of shit. I know what you're about. You refuse to let any of our conversations be recorded and you hate communicating by email. You don't want any of your bullshit to turn up in a court of law. Well, guess what, Oedipus. You don't do your cunting jobs, and I am more than happy to see you in court.

I don't have to take this to court if I din't have to, but that doesn't mean I won't. You can get some pretty sweet cuts these days for causing a danger to mental health, and I think that the fact that I can't even speak to these Oedipuses without having a stress attack and crying until I can't breathe is pretty solid evidence.

Seriously, this is how I feel right now:


I have had more then enough of despair. Now I am so, so ready to kill people with swords.

[kholoudsafir]

*hugs manga* That is so stupid, I hate people like that

I wish we were living near each others, I would have been able to help actively, honestly. But if you think that I can help with something, please let me know.

I can ask someone if he knows of available place/s near your Uni if you like

wow those people need to get punched in the throat repeatedly

I think this is bad. Just like with Grandpa, we're going over to stay at our cousins' house while Dad goes to the hospital to take care of Grandma. I can sadly see this happening all over again! Hope this isn't serious and she's just recovering.

OH MY GOD.
WHY DIDN'T THEY TELL ME EARLIER.

GRANDMA HAS CANCER AGAIN!!!

The doctors aren't sure what kind of cancer yet. They found out by coincidence by doing a lab after the gallbladder removal. They found cancer cells that may have come from the liver.
Grandma had cancer before; nose cancer before I was born. The doctors removed it using electrical equipment, but it burned a part of her, which is how her hearing is so bad.
I feel so horrible. I was complaining about going all the way there and staying all week, but then my mom told me. She thought Dad had told me before.

I hope she's okay!!!

P.S. Thanks for the hug KaitoLady Makes me feel better.

@mangaluva: It's the absolute worst when people don't do their jobs >: ( And even if I don't know the most about GPMs or the situation, even I'm aware that eviction is a pretty instantaneous thing, not three months. Especially if one of the tenants is breaking the agreement. Take some responsibility GPM!

I'm glad that you're mom was there with you and I'm glad that you're able to vent here - getting stuff out helps. Again, if you wanna talk, I'll always just be a message away

[mangaluva]

Oh my gods D: Your grandma has my best wishes for a speedy remission and recovery.

So I discovered that our checking account is overdrawn (by about $11) when I got a message from Amazon saying that they couldn't fill an order I placed because the payment didn't go through. So I changed the method of payment (to a credit card instead of the debit card) and went to look at the bank balance. Of course, this didn't occur until 7 in the evening, when the bank was most certainly not open anymore. Guess we'd best get up early tomorrow to put more money in the bank! Hopefully we can get them to waive the overdraft fee...
How did our account get so low? Archi paid a bunch of bills without checking the balance or letting me know he'd paid them. $381 in bills like that. Add in the $207 in bills I paid and it's no wonder we had almost nothing left of his last paycheck (which was only about $600 because he had to call out sick a couple times). Oh, wait, I forgot a bill. I also paid $50 on my cell phone, and he was WELL aware of that. So, yeah, the entirety of the last paycheck got eaten up by bills.
I scolded him about it because he'd paid bills without letting me know. He immediately came back with "Think carefully about who spends more money before pinning this on me." Um, dude, I'm not complaining about who spends more money, I'm complaining about not being warned that you're paying the bills. Had I been AWARE that you were paying bills to that tune, I would have a)warned you that there wasn't money left and b)delayed purchases or used other means (credit cards, cash) for them. Yes, he's right, I am definitely the more spendy person. However, I also seem to be at least a little better at keeping tabs on the checking account.
So this evening when he gets home from work we'll go over accounts and start building a budget. From now on any purchase made with a card will need to be cleared with the other person, and we'll set up a weekly 'allowance' in cash that doesn't have to be as carefully accounted for. Then we'll get into making the budget work so that a)this doesn't happen again and b)we can actually start getting out of debt.

Now I have strep throat.
So does my brother.
There's just one problem.
I CAN'T SWALLOW PILLS.
Now people are laughing at me. But when I try to swallow it my tongue goes in its way in defiance.
I don't know what to do T_T
