I'm killing time before heading to the vet.

1. Fvck you very much, Sephora and UPS. I left the GD signed slip on the door today, anticipating that my Naked Palette 2 would be waiting for me.  It wasn't. Fine, I'll pick it up. Now you tell me I can't. WTF. I just want my GD makeup.

2.  Old people must have had way different driving laws when they got their licenses. There's just no other explanation for their crazy ass driving, except that once you turn a certain age, your brain oozes out of your ear at night and renders you incapable of operating a motor vehicle.

3. I want this:
http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=24207094&catId=CLOTHES-NEW&pushId=CLOTHES-NEW&popId=CLOTHES&navCount=21&color=012&isProduct=true&fromCategoryPage=true&isSubcategory=true&subCategoryId=CLOTHES-NEW-SWEATERS&templateType=subCategory
It irritates me that I can't have it.


Your turn.

I'm irritated with Progressive, the quote they gave me for my car to be fixed is lower than what the mechanic thinks he can fix it for (he's a friend of ours so it's not him trying to scam us), when he called them about this they said "Oh well, the customer can pay the difference if that's what she wants." Well F you Progressive, I shouldn't have to pay more than my deductable because you're a bunch of cheapasses who make the mechanic buy crappy used parts to fix my car.

The smell at work is border line unbearable. I've had a headache these pass two days. I know they are working on it and other people that actually work in that department have it worst but come on. 

I can't wait to get my sort of promotion but I really need to sit down with one of ladies so she can show me the ropes but I can't because my boss has been out the last two days.

1. I'm irritated that I've been sick and not able to excersize lately.

2. I'm ridiculously excited for my birthday this year. I rented a cabin in the mountains for 4 days, and am leaving in 2 weeks! We got a penis pinata. Can't wait.

3. It irritates me that my sister thinks its acceptable to reek like an ashtray every day and try to cover it with perfume. Bitch, NOTHING covers it up, and none of us can breathe. Ew.

I'm irritated with MetLife's technical support. They are playing what sounds like a cheap version of Zelda music.

UV inks and solvents that are used when they are printing. I guess the venting system isn't what they would like it to be so they are working on it. I know they are do everything they can short of shutting down they presses but it still smells.

I haven't. :(

I ended up with bronchitis, so I haven't been able to breathe at all lately without coughing. I'm hoping I'll feel up to trying one tomorrow!

1. I took out chicken breast for dinner and have no idea what to do with it.  I have some shallots I need to use as well hmmm

2. I'm irritated that I have to go put on a happy face and tell everyone how wonderful our department is at a career fair tomorrow and I don't want to.  I feel like I'm lying but I don't have a choice.  There's a reason my chosen career was to work with computers not people.

3. H just text me and said that his boss called an emergency office meeting because something bad happened.  He doesn't know what it is yet and I'm freaking out.

4. I want to go on a shopping spree and buy a shitton of cute dresses but I won't let myself until I get a new job.

That's no good, you'll definitely need some clear lungs for it, hopefully you get to feeling better soon!

People who stop in the middle of the aisle with their cart at the grocery store, then stand there and compare 5 brands of rice while ignoring the fact that they are blocking other people from getting through.  Move the eff over

Boo bronchitis. What's tabata?

Yard sales intrigue me and make me laugh.  I want to find amazing things, but also I think it's funny that people just line shiit up outside and wait for people to come by and want it.

Boo toothache, Sarah.

I've found some great stuff at yard sales, but sometimes I look around and think 'you honestly expect someone to buy this junk?'.

Nicole, I did tabata intervals on the elliptical and they weren't killer. I need to try them with actual exercises though. I need a new bra first.

I want to rip apart my bedroom and re-arrange it, but I can't do it by myself, H isn't home and I doubt there's any way I could set it that it would annoy me less.  The room is oddly shaped.

H is working all the nights I'm off, and I'm at school the two nights he's off.  Boo :(

1. That our house isn't finished yet. I just want to move in already!

2. I want to do a bunch of online shopping but I feel like I shouldn't.

3. The duties/customs/shipping fees to ship things from the US to Canada. Why does it cost so damn much just to send me a freaking shirt?!

Yes. And the new teacher at my school too. Stop stopping your projector cart in the middle of the crowded hallway in between classes. FFS.

I'm irrationally sad because Nelson is not turning out to be a very cuddly pup. He follows me everywhere, and he'll let me get a squish in first thing in the morning or when I come home from work, but the rest of the time he's all "NO MOM."

Zombie, Me too! All they do all day is sit at their desks talking on the phone and playing solitaire. It looks like fun!

Also, I really do question how old people were taught to drive. When they started putting in those red light cameras, they all started writing into the newspaper how they keep getting caught running red lights and "it's not fair because we can make right turns on red lights!" Uh, no idiots, you still have to stop, first. Red has always meant stop. One old lady wrote in, "I've been driving for over 50 years and I've never had any trouble before." Congratulations, you got away with breaking the law for 50 years.

I really like the elliptical, but it's tough for me to get a good workout on there, it's too easy usually. I have to really push it to work up a sweat, and then people are looking at me like I'm on speed or something because I'm going pretty fast.

Penis pinata reminds me - a couple of years ago, I was a BM in a friends wedding.  Another BM and I planned the bachelorette party.  The other BM made orange chocolate penises (inside joke) using a chocolate mold, and planned to bring them with her from Chicago to DC. But at the airport, security confiscated them because "if you melted them it would be more than 3 oz of liquid", and it was too late to go back and check her bag instead carry on.  So no orange chocolate penises for the party. I'm still irritated about that.

It's official, I want a house.  I'm looking at houses on the internets.

Look at this pink one.

Obviously I don't think Ben would go for that, lol.  But that house is like my childhood realized.

And they do all kinds of shenanigans. I would love to work for Andy. 

Random--I never bring a stool sample to the vet.  They need such a small amount and I'm not carting shiit around with me.

Random irritation: I get annoyed when places leave their "open" signs on when they're clearly not open. I have no idea why this bothers me!
