Needing to Vent Mild Frustration

[unforth]

To put this post in perspective, I actually had an awesome weekend (aside from the Colts losing). I sold my first 6 items on Esty - 4 to friends and 2 to a complete stranger! - I got a lot done (though little of it the work I had to do) - and I had a really great work out yesterday morning. So really, things aren't bad at all (I feel the need to specify this, cause I feel like I've been posting more bad than good of late :) ).

This morning, though, isn't off to a great start. My fridge was making a weird noise, so I hit the offending spot a couple times and the weird noise stopped, and at first I was worried it was busted. It does seem to be working (at least, the motor is currently on and hopefully generating cold) but I'm still concerned.

Meanwhile, my neighbors dog has continued to escalate. This puppy was at first completely innocuous. The last couple weeks, though - especially last week - I noticed it's been barking more and more. This morning, it has made a new step, to clawing and batting at the door. This, needless to say, is going to get old real quick. I wonder at what point it's reasonable for me to complain?

Anyway, I'm gonna stop now, but I'm worried about my fridge. Dammit, I want just 2 weeks where nothing just randomly goes wrong...at least the dog is pretty much over her urinary tract infection...

Ah yes, those gradually growing problems. I have having to figure out that point where it's appropriate to complain. The good thing about being that way though is that usually by the time I decide it IS appropriate, no reasonable unbiased person is going to disagree. Good luck with that.

Stupid entropy, eh? You feel like you get everything set and then something ELSE gets messed up.

The point where it's reasonable to complain is the split second it starts to bother you in the slightest. You're paying way too much for your place to deal with the tiniest bit of shit. And didn't that fridge come with the apartment? Maintenance should be included in getting that fixed or replaced. The squeaky wheel always gets the grease. Squeak loud, squeak proud.

Yay the infection is gone!
