So... What's been bugging you?

For me, it was gassing up my car just as the station attendent raised the prices at the pump (Egad, bad timing).

I was trapped on the third floor of parking garage gridlock after realizing I was at the wrong mall (What a dope I am!).

Someone smudged red lipstick & makeup on the last cream-colored blouse in my size. GRRRR.

I was behind someone (it's usually a woman) who waited until ALL her groceries were rung up before she pulled out her pocketbook to write the check (YIKES! A CHECK?!)!

How fortunate that this is all I have to belly-ache.

Considering, a few days ago, a family friend, a young single dad of three, suffered a debilitating stroke. Meanwhile, brain surgery is scheduled for one of my brother's two special needs toddlers and, a number of SoCal families, including film director Bob Clark's, mourn loved ones killed by drunk drivers just in the past week. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of them.

I've got nothing to complain about.

things that bug me??? let me think, since their aren't many things that bother me.

that annoying theme song to american idol. american idol in general.

people that hog 2 seats on a crowded bus, rude clerks, pop music, people that mess up your order at a resturant, people that can't stand other people having fun. movies that are over hyped. pop bands that try to have a punk image.

i really hate people that complain about high gas prices when they are driving a gas guzzling suv or truck. i think if they drive a truck they better have a job that would require a truck like a construction worker. if they are a working a office job and driving a truck, i'm gonna be pissed. if they have a van or a suv, they better car pool alot or have a large family. if they are a single person, then i'm gonna be pissed again. so these are some of the things that bug me.

I hate crummy drivers who are too busy yapping on the cell phones to pay attention to the roads. The law that stipulates that you have to be hands-free or you get ticketed can not go into effect soon enough.

What bugs me is when store clerks come up to me and start speaking to me in spanish without even considering that I just might speak english. I'm fluent in spanish, but I tell them I don't speak spanish. It bothers me that they look at me and assume I don't speak english. I'm 1/2 japanese, but I never have people coming up to me speaking in japanese.

i have the same problem with the spanish speaking thing too, but i never get mad about it. i just respond back to them in engish, and if they can't speak it, well then i talk in spanish. no biggie for me. i just get angry because every store i go to, they think i'm gonna shoplift.

what bothers me is...

-driving behind someone thats going 10 mph and the driver from the next lane is going slower

-finding a great blouse, yet discovering that my size ran out

-taking a 1hr lunch and for some reason the person in front of me placing an order & doesnt know what they want to eat!

-carrying my books, purse, lunchbag, & sweater while trying to get in the car then realizing that my keys are all the way in the bottom of my purse!

What bugs me is that I let stupid little things bug me.

I like the way Jean and Tony sign off. It's like "Bye, see ya tomorrow."

Ok Lets see a lot of ya'll have the same things that bug you bug me. But here is a Big One going 50mph in the fast lane on the freeway when you are going 70mph. And you look over and they talking on the cell phone and guess what so are you. So you are wondering what is wrong is with this jerk. Hay maybe it's just me. ;)

i hate it when i eat captain crunch cereal and the jagged edges cut the roof of your mouth.

i hate it when you discard a penny or two, and later on in the day you really ended up needing that penny or two so you don't have to break a dollar.

meandthegirls, when in Miami, i'm given the spanish menu while my fair skinned cuban friend gets the english menu. it's funny to see the server's reaction when we switch menus.
alondrab, i thought of you when i couldn't reach my keys this morning, buried in one of my purse's organizer pockets.
yo yo and blog alot, you're too sweet.
hey samo..
i hear my husband gripe about capt. crunch cuts just like you!

The list is very long however I will touch on some things already talked about;
Jobs that only want Biling speaking people... (I speak french, Japanese & English however every damn job wants english and spanish)
Gas prices that are the highist in the country next door to a plant. WTH is that.
Cell phones on the road (ear pieces and hands free are ok but the phone to the ear needs to go)
there are many more i have but there is a size limit to the blog
