This one is annoying. One of my good friends is moving, but he's got cats, so if I wanted to go visit I'd have to get a hotel. I like the cats, but damn do they make my eyes water.

Chest freezer in 100+ heat in garage all summer just died in the last day or two. Lights are on but no cooling to be had. That in of itself is annoying but the thing was completely full. Hundreds $$ gone.
What a fantastic day, week…
What is up with the TGRz servers? Pages load for shit the last few days. Someone check the box fan.
We finally get a night in the 50s - what the weather guy likes to call "perfect sleeping weather."
Get ready for bed, throw open the window and bam! Face full of smoke.
Close the window. Turn the AC back on.
Sigh.
Had this issue with a neighbor's irrigation pump. Think he had a rock stuck in the impeller. High pitch squeal 24/7. Even though it was on the river more than a football field length away sound carries out here esp. at night.
The noise was the bane of my and another neighbor's existence but the offending pump owner was on the other side of the river which made it a hassel to address so we dealt because we knew come Fall he'd shut it off.
The next year just as I was thinking I couldn't bear another irrigation season of that noise I find out from the pump guy repairing mine that the offending neighbor had been unaware of the noise until he fired it up for the new season. When he heard how awful it was he was aghast and immediately had it serviced.
Amazing that the impeller lasted that long.
Perishable food sold in quantities that will cover multiple meals that does not come in resealable containers.
my neighbor down the hall just warned me not to park across the street from our building in the two spaces that are clearly marked with yellow paint and signed as a loading zone for the nearby hotel
he was outraged that he had gotten not one but two $23 tickets in the last two days
I said
“ no shit motherfucker
you’re a fucking idiot “
he wasn’t amused
You'd think the first ticket might have given him a clue.
Went fishing on the rez today. Paid the tribal lands permit and shelled out an extra $35 for the 2.5 miles of fly fishing only "trophy water" to avoid the methheads from Jackson County with their confederate flag shorts and nude toddlers. Planned to get my money's worth and fish all day. Got to the pullout and began fishing without a soul in sight. An hour in, the whitetrash floatilla began trickling down. Apparently they allow an outfitter to run tubing trips starting at the upstream boundary of the "trophy water" section and ending at the downstream boundary. Didn't see another fish in the hour before I left.
If this was basically any other stretch of water in the state, I would expect nothing less but since I paid a rod fee specifically to avoid this, I am quite annoyed. Then again, I did go fishing on a Saturday.

Dumbass out of town builders that have no respect for the fact that they are working in a neighborhood and think it's totally ok to fire up an air compressor and framing nail gun at 6 in the fucking morning.
Does your town have a noise ordinance? Ours is 7 and pretty much all of the pros respect it. Homeowners OTOH...
Yeah we do and it's 7. We had a talk about appropriate noise levels and what the town codes are this morning.
You're exactly right on the circumstance too. There have been 5 lots developed in our neighborhood in the past 5 years including mine. The 3 houses that were built by folks that already lived in town were respectful of those times. The two that have been built by out of town second homeowners that are quasi DIYing their own builds are the ones that don't give a shit about the effect of their actions on others.
In Sacto there are special limits for leaf blowers--9-6 except 10-4 on Sunday. (Because Christians, I guess)
Having UPS decide to take their sweet ass time with delivering a package that was supposed to be here by now. Now they're saying middle of next week. It's a hudge bundle of tools and parts I was depending on to start working on my car(s). I had the whole weekend schedule cleared so I could wrench all weekend. Now I get to do other house projects instead. That's cool and all, but I was HOPING to have a functioning car instead. Oh well. Tracking for another package with the parts to complete the job says it won't get here til end of next week. Oh yeah. I also paid extra for 2-day shipping, so thanks UPS. At least the parts company refunded my extra shipping costs so at least they were cool.

The 2 dogs I am watching are annoying me. After finding one trying to break out of the fence (digging and pulling at the chicken wire) and emailing the owner, she says "oh, he does that sometimes, he has separation anxiety". Think you might have wanted to share that before you left them with me? So I now keep him locked inside when I leave, and he apparently knows how to open the sliding back door to get out, so I have to lock that too. And the other one is leaving tufts of black fur all over the house. And one of them pissed on the floor too.

I have received 8 spam phone calls today. Before today, they were a rare occurrence.
How many were in Chinese? You don't rank unless you get them in Chinese.
