Sorry, I didn't know of his previous account.

I was trying merely trying to be nice to someone I mistakenly labeled a newbie around these parts.

Also, no labeling. I joined 2 years before you did, but I don't label you a "newbie." Not you or anyone else, for that matter.

He's using it to a describe a person who is newly registered, and it accurately conveys that. Considering the join date is yesterday, it was a fair assumption given he did not go read the profile information.

I just feel like bitching, Not much good has happened today, Its been a pretty bleh day, And I hate those.

Well, since I obviously have nothing else to do with my life at the moment, I might as well enlighten all of the users who enjoy laughing at other peoples misfortunes.

Lets start the day where it truly began, and that was at 12:01 this morning (A.M), Well around that time I was a nervous wreck, My girlfriend who is on her way back finally from MS for a horse show, Was not calling me for about 3-4 hours, And being with her for a year now, That struck me as something I should worry about, Well needless to say I didnt get a call until 2:30 in the morning (granted it was only 1:30 where she was at), So I let out my frustration and explain to her that it is common decency to simply send a text message to someone who is worrying about your well being, She pulled the "your over reacting card", Which maybe indeed I was, but hey its 2:30 in the mornin' might as well go to sleep, So I asked her, Babe when are you going to sleep. And I got this response ,"Well, I have to start packing and getting the horses in the trailer, So maybe around 3 AM", Now, Most sane men would simply say good night and be done with it. But not yours truly Trulife, I have a thing where I cant fall asleep unless she is asleep (I know im insane trust me), So I fight my instincts to fall asleep and I just stay up until 4, Now you might ask what was I doing for that time, Well I spend about 1 hour on this forum, just seeing all the new posts and hitting refresh for every 5 minutes. After all of that, I went to youtube and nothing interesting showed up. SO, It was my luck that my best pal Alex was playing COD online, So I went ahead and played with him, and thank god that kept me busy until she called. So yeah she calls and says good night and all that jazz and I head to sleep. Ah yes peace at last....

4 Hours later.....

My mother and father who are both pretty old wake me up at 8:19 in the morning to ask me to demolish a patio made of aluminum (trailer home), So not wanting them to get hurt, I get up and I start working, Now 3 hours into the job my lovely girlfriend calls me to wish me a wonderful morning and a pleasant day, Let me repeat her kind words "Why did you leave a voicemail saying you were upset that I refused to call you when I simply didnt have the time?" I quickly followed my manly gut and said Sorry babe i was just joking to see how you would act. So she hangs up and gets on the road back to florida (note our one year anniversary was on the 22nd of this month just remember that). So back to the demolishing part, I start taking this bitch apart and then I come to realize the main structure attached to the home was held together by cocking, And tar. Now for those who live in florida know that removing tar from any surface in that weather is simply a pain in the ass. So I tell my dad, and he doesnt believe me so he insists on finding it out himself. I dont want to get into details but after 3 hours of working, He said "screw it, Ill but what I need instead of getting this scrape". I go home very mad. So let me fast forward a little bit.


Around 4 P.M. I sat down to watch me some good old fashion television. I was watching Welcome home roscoe jenkins, Ironic I know. So Im watching that and its bringing up my mood and then I get a phone call from my lovely girlfriend, the conversation went a bit like this "Hey babe whats up?.....Oh nothing just calling to let you know that im 45 minutes away from florida....Wait what? how are you already near florida? (me not knowing how far MS really is jumped to the conclusion that she would be here monday, turns out I was wrong)....Yeah baby im almost in florida arent you happy your going to see me, your gonna get your anniversary gift soon...(OUCH!, Simply because I was planning to decorate her patio with nice flowers and balloons and all that jazz, And I was going to buy the supplies on sunday so all my plans got pushed back one day)....Of course im excited to see you honey I cant wait till you see your surpirse (she wasnt here on our anniversary she was in MS)...Ok babe well im on long distance so ill call you later... Ok so that was that, Now im thinking holy crap mauro I am screwed, with $12.62 in my pocket I was desperate. So now I call my mother who owes me $150 and I think its time to collect whats rightfully mine (yes I money dogged my own mother). So I call her up and I'll spare you by not going over the conversation, She pretty much makes me feel like an asshole but pays me anyways. So now I have money and im on my way to publix (Leaving the movie on, not thinking it would cause ANY harm at all, remember I have comcast I can pause the movie). And for those that dont know publix is just a general super market. So I go to the flowers and balloons section and not to waste time I buy ever single flower on display 2 teddy bears and 2 balloons and one wonderful card. So I go to the register and pay I think I had like 6 bucks left, So I head to my car and head on home. So I put all the stuff down and I open the card so I can write something nice, And boom it hits me it says such sweet things on the card and thats why I got it, but I neglected to read the last 4 words Happy 50TH year anniversary, So im sitting there about to tear the damn thing up, So I get back in my car and just get a new one. So yeah go back home and start writing my nice little passage of love to her in this card, And I forget that my T.V is still on (no problem nothings wrong right?) WRONG, I leave my house and come back to find that my brother in-laws freaking Pomeranian dog was attracted to the flashy lights my satellite box was giving off, and managed to pull my card out of its place and chew it to death (bye bye to satellite until tuesday). So after nearly killing the dog I finally settle down and open a hot pocket, oh no excuse me a lean pocket. So im eating this thing and now its around 10 PM and I'm gettin tired so I call up my girl and she is still driving but she is almost near a hotel so she said she will call me to say good night around 11:00, So im just sitting on the computer watching some videos on break.com for about an hour and then I come to you guys and write this nice long story for all to read.


She still hasn't called.




tl;dr
My day has fucking sucked!

This percocet is hindering some of my general motor skills. It's kind of annoying... but it's helping pain wise. Although, I can't drive while on it. bah.

Check your profile to see if your motto or bio was removed for being innapropriate... Otherwise try calling Xbox Tech Support, I beleive when people got banned off the Epsilon, they could call them to find out why, and actually made up excuses to get it reversed...

So I'm sure they would know why.

Top Gear Season 11 is over. :(
At least they'll be back "in the Autumn." Less of a delay than it was from 10 -> 11...
