Small things

Why why why!

Things that bug:

- When ladies make a mess in the bathroom. When they don't make sure everything went down the toilet, or left water everywhere - on the sink, the floor, whathaveyou, or peed on the seat and didn't clean it up. *shudder*
- Hair in drains.
- Open cabinet doors and drawers.
- People who leave messes in the microwave or on countertops. I find it hard to believe that you didn't notice that your clam chowder exploded all over the place. Clean it up.
- When folks empty out the water jug at work and don't change it out for a full one. They leave it for the next person to do.
- When people change lanes without looking or signaling.
- Walmart.
- That it's not OK to eat sushi when preggo, but it's OK to eat McDonalds. Whatever.
- Strangers touching my belly without asking first. WTF?
- Nosey folks who feel the need to poke their way into your business and then turn it upside down. Bastard. I really do not enjoy your presence. At all. Stay away.
- When people cut down healthy trees to make way for nothing.
- Jack Johnson. How is it that nearly everything he does sounds the same?
- Strangers who feel the need to tell me about their 4th degree episiotomy - in detail.
- Unexpected deaths of bright angels.

- Watching Rick's face when he feels him in the midst of his kick-boxing classes.
