Reasons to frown

Ok, so we have a smiling thread.  This thread is for all of the little dumb things that make you frown, or angry, or sad, etc., etc.

I'll start.  I had chili for lunch today.  I brought some crackers for the chili and a banana for breakfast.  THE CRACKERS ABSORBED THE BANANA FLAVOR THROUGH THE BAG, SO I HAD BANANA FLAVORED CHILI FOR LUNCH! >:(

I'm trying to find information on my university- students enrolled, demographics, test scores, retention rate, etc. The only fact book I can find is from fall 1998, only 2 years after the University gained accreditation. Why aren't there more recent facts? The total enrollment then was about 5,000. It's now 5 times that. The SAT is different from the '90's version. I would really like more recent info, folks.

I am working a 12 hour shift (Midnight to 12pm), and I am so tired. People recently got suspended here for falling asleep, so I am paranoid about drifting off... but DAMN I can barely keep my eyes open. 7 more hours to go at work, and then baby duty when I get home with my 1 year old and 5 week old. This bites :(

Somebody took the trouble to make my Bara Brith http://vegweb.com/index.php?topic=28567.msg315004#msg315004 and post a beautiful photo of it...and didn't bother to review the recipe!!
Crap...I put a lot of love into my contributions and they seldom get reviewed. Which is what people notice. No reviews, no takers.
Thanks for the picture, don't get me wrong--but did you LIKE it? :(

Can't be used if it's not attached to the wall.  Very annoying.

Mine will go from having a low charge to not registering the battery. I also have loose ports so everything that's hooked up to my computer, including my battery, falls out immediately. A lot of the time I have to sit there and hold the charger and use the computer at the same time. Seriously, never get an Acer.

Yabbit, it really looks good!  I have about a month until candied fruit is in the stores.  Then I will try it.  It must have been good enough to justify a picture.  :)

Semiveg, I suppose I should have put it in "reasons to whine" but hey...it makes me frown that so few people review my stuff. Even (especially) people who post "I've got to try this!!" or "I'm going to make this tonight!" and then never say another word.

Is that a permanent shift?  That's brutal.

I've had an ovarian cyst burst. I don't think anything in my life has ever hurt that much.
I really hope my body deals soon because even though it's not quite as severe now I still feel like I'm being stabbed.

Fighting is making me frown. Especially since both of us have got our tempers up. It's really hard to step off our high horses and just let it go. Urgh.
