Not Having A Good Morning

mr. flea surprised me by leaving to work for a few hours at 8:30 am (he tried to leave before I'd even had coffee and I flat out refused to let him).
TROSA was scheduled to pick up at 9; when I had seen nobody by 10:30 I called and they were very rude, said they had looked at the things on the porch and rejected them and seemed offended by the fact that I would have liked them to ring the doorbell and speak to me when they were picking up things on my property (if they even actually came by - we don't have a big house and I was on the lookout for them; maybe they did a drive-by?). So much for the accolades I've always heard about TROSA. Does everything suck? First the clusterfuck of flake and annoyance that is Freecycle, now TROSA. (Okay, the Philco recycling dude ruled.)
The landlady just walked through with the painter and is coming back with another tomorrow AM.
Our house is a pigsty and the children are bored and unruly and it's hot and going to rain and we're hosting 55 people for a cookout at 5 and have done none of the prep yet and I am not having a good morning.
