It's so annoying

-
Everyone has pet peeves. but once you start making a list of things that annoy you, you may never stop. Even if you are some kind of Saint or yogi, who can rise above it all, there are still things that annoy you or you would have nothing to rise above. One day I was very annoyed about something and I explained it to a co-worker, and she actually finished my sentence while I was explaining what happened. This made me realize that I am not the only one who has experienced this specific annoyance. So I wrote it down. Not sure what I was going to do with it. Not surprisingly more things happened that were annoying to me and I decided I would just write them down as well. I've amassed a nice little collection of annoying situations that I would like to share with you. You may have been in some of these situations before, or not. Either way I think you will find them entertaining. I will stretch them out over a few posts so look out for the "It's so Annoying" titles if you enjoy the little tidbit below.


You know what's annoying? When you are right. Like 100%, hand on the bible, could prove it to a sour-faced critical judge, right, but the person you are arguing with will not stop coming up with random nonsence to prove you wrong. So you decide that instead of letting the situation continue in the direction it is going (the more incorrect they are the louder they talk) and resorting to physical violence (aka slapping a bitch), you decide to walk away. And the other person takes this to mean that they are right........uuuuggggghhhh!
NO! Still wrong I just don't want to get arrested for assaulting you.

Have a Good Day!

-
Earlier this week I went to pump gas and all I had was cash so I had to go into the store to pay. The young man behind the counter was polite and the transaction was quick. Because I was fresh from work I ended the short conversation by saying "Have a good day!" in my best customer service voice and his response was "Alright." It struck me as odd, mostly because his inflection was of someone being given directions and agreeing to follow them in a half hearted and resigned way. Maybe no one else told him to have a good day so he hadn't thought about it, and then he felt like he should just because I told him to with such enthusiasm. Does it make your day in any way if someone tells you, "Have a good day!" Is it an annoyance, or do you even notice those little polite sayings when you are busily running through your day?

HOLLYWOOD - The American Nightmare

I have so much to say, I hope I can organize my thoughts here into something that makes a little bit of sense. Keep in mind this is not a news blog, this is an opinion blog. So, what I have to say is based on what I have heard, and how it has made me feel. For me this storm of debauchery began with the #metoo campaign. Watching all of the women I know pour out their experiences to support each other and put it out there that we are not alone. I appreciate all of you in your bravery and openness. The many allegations against Harvey Weinstein became the focus shortly after that, letting us know that even celebrities are not exempt from the shit we all have to go through as women. We also saw that it takes a lot of women standing together to be taken seriously and if you are not the "right type" of woman, you might as well keep it to yourself until someone more reputable shines a light on the asshole who hurt you. The Courtney Loves and Rose McGowans of the industry were not

A Book Review: The Rules of Magic, by Alice Hoffman

I picked up this audio book because it was Reese Witherspoon's Book Club selection for the month. I didn't realize it was a prequel to Practical Magic until I was ready to click "order," and I could not have been more excited to read it. I LOVE that movie. So much so that I had everyone in my wedding walk out to a song from the soundtrack for that movie. I love that my niece is named Jillian because of that movie. (I mean I love it because of that, not that she was named that because of the movie....or was she? little Jillybean!) That movie was where I discovered Joni Mitchell and Stevie Nicks.. Talk about a great soundtrack! All of this to say, I was thrilled about this book. Practical Magic follows the lives of Gillian and Sally Owens and The Rules of Magic gives us more Owens family history with a look into the early lives of the Aunts that raise Gillian and Sally after their parents fall victim to the Owens curse. Most of this review is based on the assumpti
