Someone sucks arse (Public transport ranting again)

I'm not sure who it is, but for some reason it took me far too long to get home, because the tubes were almost ALL out of service due to strikes.

From what the grand and mighty BBC had to say about it (remember, I'm allowed to by cynical if I work there), it was something to do with some contracts changing and drivers not being guaranteed some pension plan for 10 years service. Or something.

Whatever it was, I'm sure it was highly necessary to fuck around literally MILLIONS of people.

FUCKING FUCK!!

and now I have to get up way early because they're going on all week, apparently.

Sometimes.... this bloody city (and maybe this country, but I might be stretching it with that generalisation)...

..WELL.

Irritating things

Mostly...Hotmail.

I'm supposed to be firing off a bunch (how optimistic) of apps for jobs, but because my hotmail has completely died, I can't get at a copy of my CV right now. Also, all the jobs that I've singled out to apply for are in there too. Also annoyed at myself, 'cause I'm quietly relieved that I've got an excuse. /sigh

Getting wet

Its raining more, and I dont have an umbrella, nor waterproof shoes. Its my own fault for both of these things, of course, but that doesn't sto it from being irritating. Besides, I (foolishly) spent lots of money on a flash waterproof jacket, and I want to get use out of it (even if that means getting the rest of me quite wet). Also, I am the worst shopper, and when it comes to shoes/clothes shopping; NOTHING is quite right. Thus, no waterproof shoes. (actually, I managed to get some dress shoes recently, but I'm hardly wearing them around the place).

Crap flatmates.

If you do any of the following things, you're likely to be a crap flatmate and piss me off:

Be incredibly unsocial (to the point of openly avoiding conversation)
Leave pots of half eaten food on the stove for days on end
Piss around for an incredible amount of time getting the internet sorted (and I'm STILL having to use web cafes, you useless bastard!)
Leave hair everywhere
Use my stuff
and, my favourite: leave the toilet incredibly grossly soiled and not bother to clean it

Hmmm, what else.

Jeez, I dunno. The way this city makes sometimes me feel like some small town honkey is pretty cool too.

Feeling obliged to finish off a good rant with something 'upbeat' just so things dont look bad.

In other news, I made a cake. Its a mofo chocolate beast!
