Welcome to the 'Hood - Have No Fier!

My sister, Rachel, has just started blogging.  You can find her at Have No Fier.  Go check her out!  Comment!  She is trying to get on the "Today" Show (kind of kidding, kind of not), so she needs readers.  Plus, you all know that I'm kind of guarded here -- well, Pandora's Box has been opened -- you'll find out all sorts of things about our childhood on her blog.  Go read!

So, it's Winter and it's on my nerves.  I'm ready for it to end.  In that spirit of crankiness and annoyance, I thought I'd share a couple of things are are really bugging me lately.

• People who use public bathrooms as their private sanctuaries.  Hello oral-hygiene-obsessed girl on my floor.  If you feel that you must do your after-lunch routine, perhaps a little space in the corner of the counter and not sprawled out in the center of the sink would work.
• Ditto electronics in public bathrooms.  Do what you want at home.  (Still gross).  But in public, really?
• Combining weather events with disaster.  Snowmageddon.  Snowquester.  Stop, stop, stop.
• Broadway soundtracks ringing in my ear.  Make the "Master of the House" stop.
• People who leave the last of anything.  One paper towel on an empty roll.  One sheet of toilet paper.  One swallow of milk in a carton.  Throw out and replace, people.
• Not throwing away.  Does the empty Keurig pod magically jump from the machine to the trash can?  No it does not.  And while we are on that topic, if the water light is blinking, add water! 

Clearly, I need a vacation!

Wow, someone is cranky today ;)
In other news, I only know the song "Master of the House" from Seinfeld. Didn't even know it was Broadway. But now I have it stuck in my head, in George Costanza's voice...

I think you are right, Martha! I just re-read the post and it is one long bitch-a-thon. Oh well -- everyday can't be rainbows and unicorns, right?

[Judy]

lol! I'll second each of your bitches.

[Manise]

I third all of your bitches! LOL. I'll add those who leave NOTHING on the roll and just the roll itself. I kind of like the ring of Snowquester... :-) *ducks and runs*

I'm so with you on the Keurig business. Seriously.

There's a woman in my workplace who also takes over the ladies room with oral hygiene products, makeup, hairbrushes, et al... She's a nice person but it seems pretty OCD to inflict that on everybody. Can't figure out why. Is she worried about parsley in her teeth?

HAVE NO FIER!! Thanks for the shout out!! Forget about annoying people at work. What about annoying people that YOU LIVE WITH!! I'd say the blinking low water light on the Keurig is pretty high on the list. Also, the recycling bin that is overflowing!! AGH!

People (or person) who leave(s) the empty blister pack from medication, vitamins and hearing aid batteries on the counter ;-) Yes, people talking on the phone from the bathroom stall. This isn't a complaint but I chuckled when I saw a disposed of pregnancy test in our office washroom.
