We're looking to have our roof done at some point relatively soon, so my boyfriend has had a couple of bids done (and omg, roofing is expensive). Let me just say that we had the WORST experience with a bid yesterday. We actually didn't even schedule it, some dude knocked on our door the day before and said he was with a program that was "helping out" people in the area looking for roof work, siding, windows, etc. So my man, being ever the optimist, said oh yeah we're looking to have our roof done! They ended up scheduling an appointment for the salesman to come by and give us a quote for 7pm the next day.

Oh, how I wish he hadn't. Two guys showed up in a beat up little car at 6pm while I was home alone just getting ready to get dinner started. I didn't remember that the appointment was actually for 7 so I tried calling my man like 4x (he was busy!) Then they remembered it was supposed to be at 7 and said they would go down to a store and come back. Boyfriend made it home right as they returned and started to show them the roof. Me, being hopeful that this wasn't going to take long, I decided to go ahead and keep making dinner. Well. These guys went over the roof, looked up in the attic, and then said they'd like to sit down and show us our options. Sounds quick and easy, right? I figured they would wrap it up and leave when it was time for us to eat.

But no. Instead, THEY WOULDN'T FUCKING LEAVE! The main guy went on and on and on ad nauseum about how great the company is and how awesome their roof products were and why they're the best and only choice for anyone looking for a roof. He ignored our glazed over faces and me saying it was getting late (at 9pm!) and then literally nodding off in my chair. He ignored my boyfriend telling him "no thanks, we're done for the night and would like to finish our dinner and go to bed" at 10pm. He kept trying to push us to say yes RIGHT NOW TONIGHT and get a 15-year loan to pay their ASTRONOMICAL price, then said we could talk to our insurance guy sometime later to hopefully get some of the loan reimbursed. He absolutely would not listen to us saying "no, we're not taking out a nearly 40 THOUSAND dollar loan tonight without putting some thought into it first". It. Was. Ridiculous.

Oh yeah and then he kept hinting that he wanted some of the food I had made when we finally got it through to him that it was time to leave. It was like 10:15pm before we finally, FINALLY, got them to shuffle out the door. (At which point I had to work hard to try to save my poor dinner that had been sitting cold on the stove with the lid off because I had no idea it was going to take so long 😒)

It sure would be nice if Facebook would quit advertising my own truck that I just had to give up back to me every day

I’ve gone insane and started writing a cliche fantasy novel

Put new headlights, taillights, rims, and tires on the blurple blob over the last week and other than still being pretty ugly... she's looking kinda alright ❤️

I saw the most AMAZING shooting star on my walk tonight, stopped me clean in my tracks for a couple seconds!! 🌟⭐️🌟✨️

Extra crabby because this was/is supposed to be my first paycheck without a car payment too

[deadcaptainentertainment]

The lady boss keeps putting off getting payroll done til later and later and later in the week every week, and this time it's biting her (and everyone) in the ass because nobody has received their paychecks yet since she didn't get it done until late yesterday, which was a holiday, so it seems like the deposits didn't get processed. If she'd gotten it done on Wednesday like she's supposed to, I'm pretty sure there wouldn't have been an issue.

i love when ppl say “that’s so you” it feels good to know i exist and have a vibe

[deadcaptainentertainment]

Hashtag deeply offended that someone said an email I painstakingly wrote to clarify an issue at work sounded like it was written by ChatGPT as a COMPLIMENT today

[deadcaptainentertainment]

everyone has mutuals where if they unfollowed you, you would fall to the ground sobbing and never recover from it. this is a normal way to feel

I so love it when impatient people call back-to-back, leave an impatient voicemail, and then turn straight around to get on our website and ALSO send a message saying they called and nobody answered, all within the span of like 1 to 2 minutes

Liiiike dude. Do you think. Maybe. CONCEIVABLY. That the person who answers the phone. Was currently ON IT while you were calling incessantly and sending your messages????

writing is so funny because i could write nonstop for 9hrs and then hit a block where im like "how do i transition between this moment and the next?" and then i just dont touch it for 6 months

Congratulations to Brooke from Let's Not Date for winning Father's Day.

I hate when a tiny stupid thing pushes you over the edge and makes you freak the fuck out because it makes you look like a completely irrational tar pit of a human being. Like no I promise this is warranted just maybe not about that specifically I swear I'm well adjusted. Come closer stick your fingers in my cage

24 hours was all I got to enjoy my car for before some asshole hit and ran it in a parking lot.

Hold on. Just logged into my banking app and saw my loan has officially disappeared.

I have procured what could quite possibly be the ugliest little car on the planet. But it is MINE and it is bought and paid for.
