Roffel House!

Augh! One of my abdominal muscles won't stop twitching, and what makes it worse is that it's actually tickling me and making me laugh!! It's starting to drive me nuts in a funny sort of way, geez louise!

My coworkers think I'm insane!

I just _____ in the _____.

Okay, so last Tuesday, Jaden and I just finish school and are on our way home. Now, you can turn right on a red light provided it is clear and you have enough room. Jaden does that.

This...car...behind us, the one Jaden turns in front of...

Now, let me say, Jaden was driving, and he left a ton of space open, even if there was some kind of free donut convention at one corner of the intersection or something, not a single cop would bother us because he didn't even do anything wrong.

Anway, the car behind us suddenly jumps over and is next to us at the next light. The guy steps halfway out of his car and starts screaming at us and flipping us off! I have no idea what he was saying, but I was able to make out a few choice words. I was in closer proximity than Jaden and it terrified me! I thought he was going to start trying to tear my car door open and haul us both out!

Luckily, we were in the left turn lane and he wasn't, so we were able to get away. Still, it really bothered me. At first, I was in shock, then I was pretty upbeat to help out Jaden, then I almost cried, now I'm pretty mellow about it. From the way he seemed, I have a feeling that he would have done that to any other person, at any time, for any reason, but jeez, do people even realize what they do? That they can get pissed off for only five minutes but ruin someone else's entire week?

Normally I'm not someone to wish ill on people, but good heavens, I hope he suffers a rage-induced heart attack or something.

Okay, this is complete bullshit. The weather is seriously on crack. Is one week without rain and/or tornadoes too much to ask for? We haven't had a clear week in a couple months.

Also, I think I'm getting screwed over on my pay. Tuesday, I got some money out of an ATM, and it said I had $309 and some change remaining. I believe I took out $60 or $80 on either Wednesday or Thursday. I get paid every week, and I make $8 an hour, 35 or more hours a week.

I took out $60 after work. What was my balance? $381 and some change. I really think something is wrong there, because the first two weeks I worked there, one was seven days, and I got $330+, and the following week, only 5 days, I didn't make that much less.

So something is really screwed up.

Well, this is slightly problematic.

A while ago, I made a rant about my computer not believing my battery to exist. I thought that this was an issue with the battery originally. However, I took it into the Apple Store today and they told me that it was either a problem with the battery connector or the logic board.

This causes multiple complications.

Complication one: I won't be able to be on Reality's Exile for a while. I'll (hopefully) be able to come back on before next Monday, but I make no promises. They said that it would be 7 days max, but computer people are not always to be trusted, especially because they need to order the parts.

Complication two: I have work for school that I'm supposed to turn in tomorrow that's stuck on my computer.

Complication three: My computer is my primary connection to the outside world. I contact the majority of my friends using the Internet. I'm going to be stuck without contact to most of the people that I know until I get my computer back.

Isn't that a great way to start off the week?

So we have these idiots who live next door, they're like the worst possible kind there is. I mean, they stay up until 3AM screaming shouting and breaking stuff. They're always outside during every thunder storm night or day "because their mom said they could". The boy is a chronic liar and just smashes stuff and steals things, and the worst part is. Everyone has called the police numerous imes on them for many reasons and they do nothing. He gets away with it, his dad tries to use the fact that he has a gun to threaten people. And i'm pretty sure they beat their animals.

They got a pair of unfixed cats and let them roam all over the neighborhood(they still do). So when the cats have kittens they somehow managed to have everyone die, they handled them the secound they were born and carried them everywhere. Oh yeah I forgot, they boy also "accidentally" dropped one and it mysteriously died about a week after.
The rest of them followed suite within a week of the first. The whole neighborhood dislikes them with a passion. Anyways, that's not what I meant to talk about. A few minutes ago they were smashing around in their yard and something just happened to go through our kitchen window. It's a good thing no one was next to the window or else they could have been hit. My mom goes over to talk to their dad and the boy and his friend come running out and say "we didn't do it, it was clarence" (clarence is someone who lives in our neighborhood) and when my mom tells their dad what happened the boys say "we were inside when it happened!". And they magically know what happened without anyone telling them.

Now you probably noticed the problem yet but I'll state it anyways. If they were inside how did they know our window broke and how do they know who it was? And my mom had seen them running inside shortly after the window broke. So they're saying that in the two seconds it took them to run inside (which I doubt they actually were inside when it happened *hint hint* how did clarence manage to run around from his house around their house and in to their yard to break our window. Apparently they say they randomly made a b-line for their house inside in that time that clarence broke the window (conveniently laughing). His dad says he has to take his word for it and then goes and says he's going to kill the other kid who supposedly did it. And he knows that it was his son, there was no one else around when it happened. So they are not going to pay for the damage and the kid who we know actually did it gets away with it. This is what we have to deal with every day! Anyways... that's all, i'm done ranting.

Kies, you should call the SPCA or whatever you have on those idiots. No animal, human or not, deserves that sort of treatment.

Also I suggest moving. They sound like white-trash downsbuckets. :badinsults:
Takeoff.

Oh yeah, moving is just about the best thing we could do now. Only things is, my dad is a chain mechanic and it's kind of hard to find good work around here in that division. Also, there's six of us and we've been having trouble finding any place big enough in our price range. Thankfully the idiots next door are moving (if that's actually the truth,the whole family tells really tall tails). So we were happy to learn that they were moving but there's a catch.... their aunt (who is just as bad as them, she and her sister are insane) is going to be moving in there.


So not only will there be someone still screaming and shouting at trash cans and trees all day and night. But the current residents will still be visiting,so yeah.... woopdeedoo.... Note:when I call them idiots i'm not just calling them names(actually,technically I am) but they are actually idiots. I googled the dictionary term and I got them, it read:a person of subnormal intelligence . Yep that's them, they break stuff shout swear and smoke. Basically they're almost the worst kind of people there is. (Not to mention DSS won't do anything about them and the whole situation, the kid used to have to have the police escort him to school!)

I just got into a wreck today on my way to work. Some jerkoff hit his brakes on the highway, I couldn't stop in time, and I slammed right into him. I'm pretty much fine. My arm is cut up and bruised from the airbag, but my car, my beloved Green Machine, is smashed up pretty bad.

The worst part about this is the aforementioned jerkoff split the scene. Didn't stop, just took off. Maybe he didn't have insurance. Or a license. Or maybe he had pot in his car. Whatever it was, I was just left there on the side of the road bleeding and shaken up with my near-totaled car while this asshole speeds away.

What a day. I need a Vicodin. Or two.

Now, this is pretty minor, but its a bother to me.

I saw 28 weeks later earlier tonight, and I fear Rage Virus-infected zombies will plague my dreams. Now I don't scare. But since this'll seem real, it'll be mildly frightening, unless I have a shotgun with me. Now lets just hope I can go lucid and get that shotgun, if this does happen. *wussy*
Takeoff.

I'm about to snap.

There are three weeks until the end of school. One of those weeks is finals. I'm not worried about finals. There is only one final that I even have a chance of failing, and that's Spanish (my worst class, aka D-E this semester). It's the two weeks beforehand that I'm worried about.

I am sick of going through the same, boring routine every day until I drop from sleep deprivation and, on occasion, lack of proper nutrition. I am sick of trying desperately to succeed in my Spanish class, which is detracting from my other classes. I am sick of having idiots try to piss me off before the year is over. I am sick of feeling like my brain is going to either explode or simply shut down.

I am sick of all these things to the point where I feel like I'm actually going to be sick.

I'm not sure how I'm going to survive those two weeks. It's going to drain all of my energy, and it's even worse that seniors get to brag about how they were able to leave school last Friday. By the time finals come around, I'll be actually worried - worried that I'll fall asleep halfway through and miss most of the questions.

I fell asleep during a test last Wednesday. I missed the first half of the test.

If anyone has any advice at all on how to endure the last weeks of high school, please, let me know now so that I can apply this strategy in later years.

Disclaimer: Nothing in this rant was meant to be humorous in the slightest. Even if they looked like they were meant to be. Like the fourth paragraph.

EDIT: I can no longer get internet at school. This is a contributing factor to my newest insanity.
