Acne … I mean, seriously.
Old ice cream.
Garbage trucks repeatedly running over my lawn.
Making pediatrician appointments.
Running out of toilet paper.
Running out of toilet paper while on the pot.
My overflowing Google Reader.
Falling asleep by 9:30 p.m.
My ass.
Cleaning the bathroom.
Cleaning the bathroom at preschool.
The dirty kitchen sink.
Malfunctioning Grind N’ Brew coffeemakers.
Running out of coffee beans.
Running out of half-n-half.
Bad restaurant food.
Cooking dinner.
Seventy-seven degrees in October.
Rain at the pumpkin patch.
Anticipating Thanksgiving.
Writer’s block.
Forgetting things.
And this, too:
What makes you peevish?

The fact that I am the only one in the house who can successfully place a new roll of toilet paper on the roll…not just prop it on top of the empty roll.
Junk mail.
Stupid commercials. Most commercials, actually.
My freaking messy house.
Spam offering to enlarge my penis.
And I am with you on the acne. Enough already.
Is it okay if I make this (or a word like it) the next one on BlogFriday, and write a whole post about things that annoy the crap out of me? Somebody will need to tell me when to stop though… I have lots of things to write about… like the girl on the underground today that sat with her legs open (and a short skirt), and looked at men dissapprovingly if they glanced in her direction.
Really want to know?
Chronic back pain for which there is no known remedy as of yet. Acupuncture is next.
Well, no cash for the acupuncture, since insurance doesn’t cover.
Taciturn teenager. He will be ALL CHATTY CHITCHAT when the time comes to pay for driver’s ed, however.
No time to write.
My work wardrobe does not reflect who I am. At all. I want to change this but finding appropriate clothes that also suit me is an expensive prospect.
My tendency to worry and overthink.
This weather.
Midlife crisis (I just turnd 39). WTF am I doing??? crosses my mind quite often.
I have to go to Madison for a wedding this weekend and I don’t want to go. I’ve been working on weekends and I need some time off, desperately.
I’ve been feeling peevish as well. Must be something in this completely wrongly-temperatured air.
Ever since H was born I’ve had acne as bad as it was when I was a teen. It sucks. He’s been weaned for 15 months and it still hasn’t gone away. Will it ever?
And I swear to god, girl, you have a nice ass. I’ve seen it and its cute as a button – as are you in the entirety.
Tardiness
Clutter/Messiness
To Do lists that I can never seem to find the time to get done.
My mother had a cat named Peeve – so she could refer to her pet Peeve.
I think my biggest one is that my husband cannot ever clean up after the child – her toys, clothes, shoes – he just walks right by.
Amen, amen to your entire list. I couldn’t have come up with better ones!
my ass
my hips
my disgusting carpet
My migraines
mylife.
Naps that range from 1 hour to 3. Pick a time and stick with it!
Deadlines.
Dried globs of toothpaste in the sink.
Perpetually dirty floors.
Waiting rooms with no toys.
Play rooms with too many toys.
Cranky, ravenous after school children.
Oh this messy apartment, definitely.
Idiot clients.
300+ spam email a day.
The construction next door that won’t let up. Ever.
Trying to figure out why our TiVo won’t record THE RIGHT CHANNEL!
I had to comment when I saw “malfunctioning Grind N Brew” LOL!!
Nothing worse than coming downstairs in the morning to coffee grinds and murky water all over your counter and cabinets that you now have to clean – Before you’ve had a cup of coffee!!
My peeves? So many I can’t even get started! Right this second I think:
People who think they can sum up your whole psyche by reading a few posts from your blog.
ok, first I had to look up the definition of peevish. I’m not a total dumbass but i just wanted to make sure I got it good before I commented. I got “querulous in temperament or mood” SO then I had to look up querulous (Apt to find fault; habitually complaining.) now think I’m down for the task:
this totally depends on the day but
taking two kids IN and OUT of carseats many times a day
just realizing I have no coffee to make tomorrow morning
a friend who owes me money just told me of several splurges
elizabeth hassleback
anne coulter
My list would overwhelm your comments, HA! But your living room makes me peevish too.
smartasses like me who leave useless comments like this one.
also traffic.
I WISH my living room was that clean right now!
Ooh, I’m not sure I should even start, because I might just not stop.
Is it too much to say just about everything this week?
Hmmm . . .
Acne, definitely hear you on the acne. Also (in no order):
- People who tailgate
- Colds
- The constant mess in my house
- My kids fighting and screeching at each other
- Republicans
- Almost Halloween and it’s nearly 80 degrees
I better stop there! Too many things to list.
