1. One thing that really annoys me is when someone at work will just start clipping their fingernails at their desk. In most cases, it is men who do
this, which only makes it worse. I can't explain why this grates on my nerves, but when I hear that "click-click-click" of the clippers, I just imagine nasty fingernail fragments flying everywhere. What habit do people have that drives you crazy but doesn't seem to bother anyone else?
Burping...in public...out loud...in front of me....I hate it....ABHOR it.
2. I just had to replace the compressor in my car. That was $400 I didn't have that is now gone. Have you had any expensive car trouble recently?
Funny you should ask because my car is in the shop right now getting a radiator leak and coolant flush done to it because of Murphy's damn law.
3. A friend of mine came over for dinner with us this recently, and brought her baby. At only 8 months he is as cute as the dickens, but when he got hungry, his momma just whipped out her boob for him to start chowin' down on. Among friends or family I can see why she wouldn't be shy, but it still made me a little uncomfortable. I realize it is a natural function and wonderful bonding experience, but I wasn't ready to be a part of it. How do
you feel about mothers who breastfeed their children in public? At what age do you think they should stop?
I don;t think it should matter. I mean being discrete is one thing, whipping out your boob for the entire place to see and then placing on the baby is just a little too silver pole. Never realy thought about what age they should stop. Didn;t realize there is a statute of limitations on that kind of thing.
4. I was watching the "Antiques Road Show" recently, and the resident "expert" presented the "Atari 2600" game system as a popular collectible. I am now officially OLD! Do you recall the first item from your youth that became an "antique" and made you feel old and how you felt? Or if it hasn't happened, yet, what item do you think it will be and how do you expect it to make you feel?
Definitely the Atari....LOVED playing on it all the time. Doeasn;t make me feel old. Makes me feel priveleged.
5. It started raining last night as I was going to bed. Not storming or a hard rain, just a nice rainfall. The pitter-patter of raindrops hitting the window made for a peaceful way to drift to sleep (and also made it hard to wake up this morning). Do you like rainy days/nights? What type of weather makes you feel relaxed?
I LOVE the rain. Morning, noon, night. Love the noise, the feel, the taste, the smell. It makes me feel calm. I especially love it when it thunders and I can watch lightning strikes. I pull the curtains aside, turn off all the lights in the apartment and just watch and listen.
6. We used to joke about the retired couple across the street. Every night, they would pull out their lawn chairs, sit in their driveway and watch the world go by. We laughed about how someone would just waste away their life like that. Now 8 years later, I pull out the lawn chairs and we find ourselves doing exactly the same thing. Life has a way of making one humble. Have you ever found that you have become that which you once ridiculed?
No because I ridicule myself at every waking and walking moment, so no problem there!
7. Have you ever sent an e-mail to the wrong person? What was the most embarrassing experience you remember?
Nope. Well the closest thing was sending an e-mail in ghetto-nese to Sara and the e-mail autofill accidentally putting Dr. Sara Deats and me not noticing it. That was pretty funny.
BONUS: You know, you got me spellbound what else can it be?
Angina?
