My own daily error of cereal to milk ratio - why do I ALWAYS end up with way more milk in the bowl than necessary. Yet every day I fill it up just the same. Somebody smack me silly. Never mind, I'm already there....

Yea this is a peeve of mine up here in the santa monica mountains too - guys tearing down the fireroad barely in control (and they are busy fireroads with hikers, dog walkers etc) - meanwhile not going down all the great singletrack that's a few feet away. WTH? I call 'em Fireroad Bombers and they never slow down or say hi. And they SKIIIIIIIIID all over the place.

I didn't feel my 30's and much as turning 40. Freaking brutal. Three beers and I can feel it for three days!

aint that the truth? i'm still "fuzzy". I'm sure i missed entire conversations yesterday at Andy's tustin Brew festivities.

having to vacuum the house for several hours yesterday didnt help the headache. yes, earplugs were required.

....this might lead to a "you know you're old when..." thread.

Haha here's a RIDICULOUS one...

For some reason, I can NOT stand when people rubberneck past my cubicle! They walk by and STARE inside my cubicle. Haha, I might be a little paranoid since I'm on STR but STILL! My irritation even seems ridiculous to me, although it still bugs me...

And that is a nice light bar.

My current pet peeve is me. I'm really starting to piss me off.


I know what needs to get done and instead of doing it, I let it slide.

One day, I'm going to punch me in the face....but I need a nap now so maybe later.

Insurance agents that, no matter what it is, have to have everything they request on a same-day basis and will call 20 million times if not received.

It's like... earth to Mr. Agent, I have 150 other agents that need shit too. Take a number.
