ANNOYED (A BIG VENT..FEEL FREE TO SKIP)

You know, I spend a lot of my life annoyed.  So this morning I decided that before I do anything at all I was just going to sit here and think about that.  Maybe I could figure out why and then just maybe be able to rid myself of that…its annoying.

To start I decided to go back over a few annoying things that have caused me to be annoyed, in the last little while.

1.    Spod was on his way into the kitchen to make himself a cup of coffee.  I told him that the coffee canister only had a couple of coffee pods left.  I told him where the new box was, and could he fill the canister and then put the box back when he was finished.  Okay he says.  I continued to do what I was doing and next thing I see he is sitting in the chair, lap top on his lap, drinking a coffee.   "did you fill the canister?" I ask. " No, there was one left in the bottom."  And you know what?  If I said what any normal red blooded woman would have said in a moment like that…he would be snarking right back at me..something totally irrelevant and nasty. I can guarantee it.  So I said nothing…whats the point?   It annoyed me.

2.   As I have mentioned before I wear a cpap mask to bed.  The masks are plastic with a soft gel edging around it to make a seal on your face.  The air that gets pumped in keeps your snore thingies open so you don't snore. 

 The plastic wears out.  On each side at the bottom of the mask are plastic little claw things you hook the straps that hold the mask on, into. Well, one of them broke on my mask.  The left strap is attached to a clip that the strap goes through and is all velcro…to adjust to every head size.  Well, I had to mickey mouse it to attach somewhere else on the mask to barely hold the stupid thing on my head.  So the strap now goes up and covers my left ear and left eye…and if that isn't annoying enough….I have to hold it all there all night long.

Last night, somehow, the left strap (and its long) detached itself and by the time it all woke me up, that stinking velcro was so intertwined in my hair…I could NOT get it out.  I finally ripped my whole mask off and yanked and yanked on that strap.  No matter what I did that fricking thing just went deeper and twirled around and around even more.  Finally, I got up and stomped to the bathroom to see in the mirror.  In the end I got out the scissors and just started cutting…a whole lot of hair came off.  Stupid thing.  I was MOST annoyed.

3.   Passwords.  Beyond annoying.  Google in particular is the worst.  Google is ALWAYS asking for me to put in the password and no matter what I put in it won't take it.  I have a document on my computer that I have listed all the passwords in.  So if you ever steal my laptop..go ahead.  I wouldn't even have passwords if I had my way.  Obviously I don't put the banking ones on there, but google, facebook, itunes, kindle, skype, bean, safari, mail…..all of them…I do not need those to be passworded.  I want the choice.

    So once again I was trying to get into my blog and once again google was asking for the password.  I didn't sign out, I never do, but there it was…the dreaded empty boxes, waiting for passwords and user names.  Yet again I typed in what I absolutely know for a fact is my info and once again that message, either your password or user name is incorrect.  NO IT FREAKING IS NOT!!!!!!!  And again I have to change it.  What the hell is with that anyway?  I am very very annoyed!!!!

3.   Flies.  They like me.  They land on me.  They buzz around my head.   They sit on the backs of my hands.  They crawl on places I can't reach.  And they are especially bad at the pool, so much so I take a fly swatter with me.   I try very hard to kill one and let it sit on my leg…it seems to deter them a little, but not for long.  How is it possible to lay there relaxing in the sun and feel flies crawling all over you.  And it  doesn't seem to happen to anyone else out there.  So I lay there with a fly swatter in my hand, slapping like a crazy person.  I have zero dignity left.  And I find that very annoying.

4.  The back seat of the car annoys me.  I like sitting back there, don't get me wrong.  But before any air conditioned air gets back there, the people in the front seat start getting cold and shut it down.  Meanwhile I am sweating like the proverbial pig in the extremely still hot back seat.  And I get high blood pressure, swollen ankles and fingers, ruined sweaty hair, red in the face and very very annoyed.

I have read this over and come to the conclusion that I am the type that just lets those little annoying things get to me.  And this whole post is beginning to annoy me so I am going to quit typing it.  TTYL
