Things I Hate (or a List of Things I Dislike Mightily) Take 2

1. When a driver has recently used his or her blinker/turn signal, but then completely forgets about it and can’t hear the incessant beeping/clicking noise, and doesn’t turn it off when he or she has no intention of turning or leaving the lane in which the car is presently traveling. (Yes, this happened to me on the way to work. Didn’t know if the guy wanted over or not. . .)

2. When I cut myself at the ankle and bleed FOREVER! (yes, this happened to me today, too!)

3. Waking up and feeling like you haven’t gotten a bit of sleep.

4. Performance reviews (mine is today!)

5. The television shows “7th Heaven” and “One Tree Hill.”

6. Waiting for my hair to grow out a little so I can get the next hairstyle I want. And trying to tame it in the meantime.

7. Putting a lot of effort into something and feeling like it either didn’t reach its potential or regardless of how hard you work, no one’s going to care or put in any effort of their own.

8. Showers (wedding and baby), shower games, and most especially, lingerie showers. And whoever came up with the term “personal shower.” That just sounds too, well, personal.

9. The phrase thrown out to me often: Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. Don’t you people think I’m aware of that? Do you really have to point it out?!

10. The fact that it’s only Tuesday. . . .and that I have to go to Albuquerque on Friday and man a booth and have no idea what I’m doing!
