It's a rainy Monday and for some, it probably is depressing. But a little thunder and lightning keeps you awake and on your toes! But we are not in charge of the weather and the sun will shine again. It's not all bad!
What I want to get at are my two biggest pet peeves! Ya' know the things that drive you absolutely NUTS!!! I will admit it changes on occasion but over the weekend I think I narrowed it down to the two that will get me irritated immediately. And don't laugh, well you can but just admit we all have those "things" that drive us nuts and get on our nerves. I know I've mentioned these before but like I said these are the two finalists!! For me, at least!
1. Loose toilet seats. I'm pretty sure this probably affects more females than males. But it is the worse feeling in the world (okay it ranks up there with going to the bathroom in the dark and the last male in the bathroom didn't put the toilet seat down-that is a rude, cold and wet awakening!). But it is an awful feeling as you are sitting there, exposed to the world and you are just trying to do your business when all of a sudden everything shifts, slides, moves and you feel like you are falling. It is less than a split second of wondering if you are going to fall and there you are exposed, a worse nightmare! It drives me nuts. And scares the poo out of me! (yes pun intended!) There should be full-time positions where people just go around to both public and private at-home bathrooms and tighten or replace those toilet seats that offer these "free rides". It is not fun. Honestly, I think I have one that is turning into one of these "free rides" right now! It must get fixed or replaced!
2. People who stand around or sit watching someone else work drives me nuts. Really? Can you NOT find anything else to do with yourself? It's not like you are a supervisor or a foreman making sure people are doing their job or doing it right. I grew up in a house where you HELPED. You either asked or offered. You did not sit or stand around and watch someone else working. If you are able bodied why do you do this???? What kind of person does this? It will tick me off in 1/100th of a second. No doubt. To me, it is rude and disrespectful. OFFER or ASK to help out or leave is the safest alternative to do if you are not going to help. This will ruin a good mood for me faster than you can blink. I'll leave the room to avoid hurting someone.
Everyone has pet peeves of some kind that drive them nuts. And I feel like everyone's pet peeves are valid, it can range from those drivers who do not use their blinkers or forget to turn their blinkers off and drive for miles down the road or how the toilet paper unrolls off the roll to how someone chews or having someone breathe on you, these are just examples!! It's okay to have pet peeves, it just makes us human! No one is perfect!!
The rain will stop and the sun will stop, if not today, then tomorrow or the next day or sometime soon! It's a Monday and life goes on!
