do you ever have those days where everything bugs you? when your list of pet peeves becomes much longer than normal? today was one of those days. here are just a few things that come to mind:
1. people who go when it isn't their turn at a 4 way stop.
(if you live in logan, you know that 600 e and 1000 n is the worst)
2. people who drive 30 in a 40.
3. those same people don't slow down to 20 in a school zone.
(my drive to school this morning was anything but pleasant)
4. when people ask me what i am going to school for and i say audiology. they then say "what?! i didn't hear you!" and then proceed to laugh, thinking they are so clever and just came up with the best. joke. ever.
5. love handles. yep.
6. professors who finish their lecture 20 minutes early but refuse to let you leave. "if class is scheduled to get out at 2:30, i'm going to make sure you get your money's worth. you are paying for your education, you know." really?! because sitting there for an extra 20 minutes while we talk about nothing audiology related is hardly educational. let me go my way, you can go yours, and i'll see you again on wednesday.
7. people who can't figure out your vs. you're
it's vs. its
their vs. they're vs. there
didn't we all learn contractions back in the 3rd grade?
8. when the waiter at olive garden forgets my frozen lemonade. i tell him i don't want it anymore when my meal comes but he brings it out to me anyway... half melted. i don't drink it because it isn't good when it's melted. and he still charges me for it. so i ask for a new one to-go and he acts put out. lame.
9. loud gum chompers
10. vienna on the bachelor
11. josh beat me in scrabble by playing "jeep" on a triple word tile. 54 freakin points!
and just so you don't think i'm super ornery today, here's a list of things that made me happy today
1. no inversion in the valley
2. booked my flight for chicago in a month
3. dinner date with josh
4. the jazz came out victorious in another nail biter
5. jcrew is offering an extra 30% discount on their sale items
6. i'm officially registered to run the salt lake city half marathon on april 17th. you should join me! let the training begin!
11 love notes:
Who kept you in class? That's rude. We have a lot of the same pet peeves. I LOVE IT.
Vienna irritates me too! He just needs to get rid of her...NOW!!!
Ah yeah, the 4 way stops of Logan. Sorry Liz, I'm hear to tell you anywhere you go, you'll find something about the local driving that will drive you insane. In ABQ, two things: they can not merge, when they change lanes, they will often turn on the opposite blinker of the direction they're changing (move to the right lane turn on the left blinker). Great list.
Vienna...hahaha so true!!!
I'm sorry...that's the worst. I hope your day gets better...PS Vienna drives me crazy too! Wish you were here to watch it with me!
Okay I agree with #10. Seriously jake!
Is this your way of telling me that you don't like anything about me?
lots of those same things bug me too but I am happy that you made it through the day and had an enjoyable one as well! I am so proud of you for doing the 1/2 marathon again, I thought of it but I think I am just going to do the 10 miler that I did last year. I wish we lived closer though and could run together!!!
You make me laugh!! I just love you:D
Totally agree with you on some of your pet peeves. And thanks for the J Crew tip!
So I read your comments and have to agree with the Vienna one as well. Sad thing is I think Jake does like her but Tenley is totally my pick to take it all, I think he'll pick her. Love to run the half marathon but we will see how mnay miles I can get in with my little one.
