You could try to get them for false advertising. I mean, you payed a down payment on a pet which they said you could have, then they sold it out from under you. Thats supposed to be against the law.

I'm gonna rant one more time...
So as I'm sure you guys know, I'm a hurdler, and I love to hurdle a lot. You might know that I high jump on the side.
So I win second place in nearly every meet. But there is one girl that's better than me. It wouldn't be so bad but she goes to the same school as I and therefore takes my first place in every single meet.
Tough s**t, right? She's better than me.
Considering she high jumps nearly every day and I only get a chance to about 10 times a season becuse hurdles takes most of my practice time, she should be better than me. (She has the freakin school record.) But I notice sometimes the coach tells me I'm done when this other girl gets to practice longer, even though she's been there the whole time.
So at the North Coast Sectional, my parents decided to come watch me. So they talked to the coach and this is what he said:
"Yeah, Kristin's got a lot of potential. She jumps way higher than Stephanie, but her form needs so much work. I'd love to help her with that, but every time I spend to much time with her Stephanie get's jealous."
neutral So Stephanie tells the coach not to help me 1/10th as much as he helps her. She's not satisfied with the school record, but she has to push me and the other high-jumper (I assume her too) down so that she looks like a goddamn god. How goddamn respectful of her.
I figure I should be a b***h next year so I get what I want. I'm going to tell the hurdle coach that I don't want to hurdle until after I high-jump, because otherwise my legs will be tired and I won't get my steps right. I'll tell the High-jump coach that I want to spend more time high-jumping because I COULD (could, not a guarantee) be as good as her--and therefore vicariously, the best there's ever been in Monte Vista (my school.) And I just might write in the jumper's journal a short story about Stephanie as Carlotta...I don't think I'm prepared to be that bold actually.
Anyone seen The Phantom of the Opera? Imagine Stephanie as Carlotta. "I won't sing unless you kiss my a** and don't you DARE give Christine a chance, because she's better than me and I don't want her threatening my stance!"
I don't know. Maybe I'm just looking for a half-decent reason to hate her. She does do little things like stretch in MY lane during meets for hurdles so I can't practice there.

O.o the tension. Little girl having to strike out at opponents because they have too much potentional. Zella, you need to call her out. If she is stretching in your lane you need to ask her to move. You can do it nicely, but she needs to get the hell out of your lane and your way. Coach tells you your done for the day, tell him you really need a bit longer. Don't let someone ruin your chances at sucess. If you want it, and I know you do, then go after it because you will win. She is already afraid of you. She knows if you reach your potential you will win.

Zella and NG: If you can't get your problems to work out, I'll come over and kick some a** for you. Sound good? You give me names and I'll add them to my list of people that need a good whoopin'. Okay, seriously...I think legal action against the store would be supported enough to work. And that coach shouldn't be treating students unfairly. Talk to whoever's above him, get him in trouble for it. If you try and be bitchy about it to get what you want, you'll only be sinking to that girl's level.
Sakii: You have to come back! I was gonna draw for you! crying

NG, it sounds like a royal example of miscommunication happened in that pet shop. You put a down payment on a ferret, when the employee you were dealing with told you that you could, marked the ears (probably for sake of show to make you happy), but then never recorded it somewhere that that particular ferret wasn't for sale anymore.
What I don't understand is why was it on still on the floor if it wasn't for sale anymore? I thought that if an animal had a home already, they would put it in a place out back, or at least put a sign up in it's habitat that it was sold....
Don't just raise hell when you go in. Call forth fiery demons and imps to back you up. Find out who the ferret got sold to, and see if you cant talk to them about what happened.

I don't think I AM going to raise hell. I think I'm going to do worse. I'm good at mind games, and i'm going to screw somone out of a big profit. They said they'd do what they could to make it better, after all. .:.smiles.:. Well, they'll make it better alright. Anywhoo, you know, this might work out for the better. I wanted a big ferret, males are bigger. I wanted a laid back ferret. Male ferrets tend to settle down long befor females. so I'm already o the look out and such. smile I wanted that ferret quite a bit, but what if the person that bought her /needed/ her more then I do? Yes yes, what if they didnt? I'd rather think they needed her more then me.

NG, you are very good at mind games, and that makes you all the more evil and wicked. -_-" Good luck, and may the best ******** win.
I'm being forced to go to church against my will. I hate religion. I hate it. It's tedious and boring and not to mention EMO. People remarking on "oh, the world is so bad now, sob sob, we can only make it right if we throw our lives away by praying to some non-exsistent entity." If you've ever read Ecclesiastes, you'll find that it's the most WONDERFUL, HONEST part of the entire Bible. I mean that, if you take out the references to God, it is. Otherwise, it's just self-serving bullshit. Life is pointless, and the sooner we comprehend that fact, the happier we will all be. It pisses me off that people think there's a purpose to life. There isn't. We are born, we live, and then we die. Since I haven't died yet, I don't know if there's something waiting for us after we die. I don't want to know. If there's a heaven, I don't want to go there. I'd rather just remain here on Earth and watch the sad history of the world unfold. And let's face it, life is hell enough, isn't it?
I am not sorry I've sinned. I love sinning. It's what I do best. I love to be idle and to lust after men and to eat until I'm bursting. I love all the sins that we're not supposed to do. And why? Because I can. If I go to hell for it, I'll consider it well worth it. I know I'll be seeing a couple people there, anyway. -_-"

Af Mas Well, they'll be back. I don't really think that everyone who quits really quits for good, at least if they've been super active. We'll see them again I know they're not quitting XP Ah Affy, you're right. I've cooled off now. I realized how hurtful some of that stuff must have been to my friends too so uh... FORGET MY MOMENT OF WEAKNESS ALL! Cookies all around! biggrin Gawd. You know what, I hate it when I act emo XD I'm not saying I don't still feel bad, but I realized that I really like being here, and I like being with the people here.
