Eeeeeeeeh!
Okay, so I just need to rant about this, and I figure that while I'm here, why not share the squicky?
[rant] So there is this guy that I work with and he's so weird! *twitch* I've known him ever since I can remember, because he's worked for my grandfather for years. Anyway, every time I go in, he always wants me to "give him a hug." It was annoying at first, then it started to tick me off, and I began making faces when I begrudingly hugged him. And most recently (Goddess, he is SO SQUICKY), he always tries to get me to kiss him on the cheek or kiss me on the cheek or something. Ew. Ew! EW!
I'm not even going to go into the worst part, but agh, flippin' squick-tastic man! *cringe* [/rant]
*deep breath* Whew, okay. So, anyway, that's my OT rant for past 1:00 A.M.

Maybe he likes you as more than a friend, lol
Anyway try talking to him about it, say your uncomfortable with it all and that's just not how you operate or something like that. After all it is kind of harrassment.

He's married. And old! (He's been working for my grandpa since, I think, before I was born.) Hence the super creepiness of it all. Ewwww. I wish he didn't work on the days I have to work. He should find someone else to creep out!

Oh, I was gonna go with Dan and say he likes more than a friend, but if he's old...*shakes head* CREEPY! Hmmm...that really is a problem.

Yeah I agree, I mean it's not his age that is the real concern. It's his behaviour and it's obviously maing you feel uncomfortable about it, and like Dan said it is classififed as some sort of harassment, especially if he's trying to make you to do it it's probably worse. I'd either talk to him or if worse comes to worse take legal action possibly?
Maybe a restraining order. lol

I've got a new one. It's definitely not as squicky as the first, but it is annoying and only two words long: Textbook prices! *cringe* And even worse, Amazon didn't have any good US coupons. Amazon Canada coupons, of course, but USA, no! *pouts* And I still have two more books to buy. Really, I need to get my own credit card, but I have no idea where to start with that either.

OH! I hear you! It's disgusting how much they are. My math text was $75. And that was used. Ugh. Like, do they think college students have the money for this? Because we don't!

Did you buy it from your compus bookstore or did you buy it online, out of curiosity? They always rip you off more at the bookstore. (I bought all my books too late first semester and had to get them from the bookstore. Ouch. Most of them had to be brand new, too, since I got them late. Yuck!)

Yeah, I just got them at the bookstore (B&N). Easier for me. But, year, more costly.

Did you go online and print out any B&N (that's Barnes & Noble, I'm guessing) coupons? I saw a lot of them when I was looking last night (everything but Amazon, actually *grumble*), and those can sometimes be pretty nice. Especially if you print out separate ones and use them at different times to purchase, to maximize your savings. (Sneaky, yes, but they overcharge us, so I say fair is fair!)

No, I didn't find any coupons...(I didn't look either.) That's an interesting idea for next year..lol

All's fair in love, war, & shopping...
To use "one time per household" online coupons more than once I've resorted to taking out a disposable/reloadable credit card in a false name under my grandparent's old address (they have been deceased a little over a year now and we haven't sold their old house yet...)

I've got two for today...
Peeling Sunburns: I feel like a shedding snake!
Pills: Whether it's unsuccessfully trying to swallow a capsul or having to open a capsul and pour the nastiest powder you've ever tasted into food, one thing's for sure - I know my gag reflexes are working spectacularly!
Which reminds me, I need to go find something to eat so I can take that stupid pill and finally get to bed. *groan*

I prefer pills they don't bother me it's medicine that bothers me! It is VERY hard 2 find a nice tasting medicine whereas pills take with water nd swallow! Easy! But it also depends on Y u are taking them but nevermind!
