So, just to spite me, my wife totally forgot to make me breakfast today. And then called me that she's bringing it soon. And then forgot again. Or maybe she just wants me to appreciate the times that at least I have soggy breakfast.

I'm actually wondering, if she would have made me a gourmet breakfast, thereby denying me the opportunity to grump, is that something to grump about? Waiting to hear from the chashuve oilam. Especially the one-eyed redfaced monster

If I 'member correctly, I offered to send you food at least twice and I was turned down Oh So Graciously each time.
Anyhoo, I'm too busy stewing in my own grief to care much about your (lack of) soggy breakfast.
May you slide down the banister of happiness and get many splinters of success up your career

Monday, blech. Work, blech. Gloomy day, blech.
It's even too much effort to grump.
We are not the same people we once were. We are not so locked into our urges that we have no choice. We can choose to give in or choose to win this battle today. We do not want to give in, the pleasure of giving in is false. 
With Hashem on our side our victory is inevitable; the only way we can lose is by giving up on playing the game.

*shakes head*…

There I am this morning in the hospital after a really long day and night (that ended in a c section with everyone healthy, BH, but I digress), and my shvigger asks my wife what I’d like to have for breakfast and she’ll pick it up. My wife tells her a Hobo (the egg and hash brown sandwich, not the homeless-type dude, just to clarify). A shandeh in and of itself, because by the time it would arrive it would be cold and yucky. But is that all? No! That is not all!
Even assuming that I’d have wanted a cold hobo, she goes and puts frikkin lettuce and tomato in the sandwich! Seriously, what in the blazing inferno was that???!!!!

*shakes head once again in extreme distaste and disgust *.

I've never eaten a hobo before (either type), but it sounds pretty good. Gotta cook the homeless man low and slow - they're probably pretty tough and stringy.

Mazal Tov! 
The lesson of this post is that however much happiness we have in our lives... there's still plenty to grouch about!!! 
I just wish I had only that grouch to grouch about...
Looking forward to get to know you better!

Over a week overdue, and BH doesn’t look as much as an alien as they usually do.

I would post my own Grouchery ( is that a verb) which The Lord knows is pretty intense, but I dont want to ruin the feel good cozy fuzzy vibes that healthy 10 lb babies provide with.
Congratulukshen!

f&^*!ing idiots ruining the grouch thread. What the point of a grouch thread if people are going to be so flippin' positive on it that we feel guilty giving a proper grouch. 
@redfaced please ruin the good vibes. Defecate allll over those good vibes. We're counting on you!

My friend, this was a ירידה שלצורך עלייה. 
I felt like there was too little grouching happening, and was just trying to get the pancake-flipping grouching restarted!!!

What a terrifically terrible Thursday!

סוף זמן ,סוף זמן ,סוף זמן, סוף זמן, סוף זמן, סוף זמן!!!!!!
I hate סוף זמן!!!!!!!!!!


I am very tired and woke up late.
And it's raining.

I went to sleep too late last night.
And it's raining.

It was raining the whole week.
And it's raining.

I don't have a chavrusa first seder since Purim Katan.
And it's raining.

Boy, am I grumpy today.
And it's only 10 am.
And it's raining...
