Things That Bug Me Mondays

  • Starting my period halfway through the birth control pill cycle!  I didn't miss any pills and took them all at relatively the same time.  What the hell body??  Plus, I'm having the most crazy stomach-aches (like a pile of angry bees are in there!)...not my normal fare at all.
  • How I have to microwave my coffee approximately 6 times before I finish drinking it.  I don't know why I can't just have it like a normal person.  I guess I can pretend that my getting up to walk to the microwave and back to the couch is a really pathetic form of exercise hahaha.
  • I can't stop clenching my hands.  Or my jaw.  Ever.  Can anyone say stress case??
  • I have to fix up my iTunes as it has a billion duplicates and half albums.  As much as I LOVE my iPod Touch, I HATE iTunes.
  • Missing out on sunny days when you don't feel well enough to partake in them!
  • The pressure I put upon myself of having to come up with brilliant birthday presents for the people I love!!
  • My computer keeps overheating and I'm terrified of having to buy a new one as I have no money!!

What's on the rant-fest for everyone else this Monday??  Do tell!

sadly the same thing as last week - i was so over it til i got back to class. where everyone has spent the morning going.. "how was your break? did you go anywhere?" no, i did NOT go anywhere. where would i go? more importantly, where would i go alone? (polite answer given instead) "oh. why not? i went to blah blah blah... he went to blah blah .. i heard a group went to blah blah blah blah" arrrrrrgh. did any of them ask ME? nope. gack.

ok. all done now, thanks! :)

PS: i HATE that about itunes!! mine randomly deletes away songs - or even entire albums or artists - and i have a million and one duplicates for some unknown reason...

I've got a similar rant as SR. I get so tired of people saying "What did you do last weekend?" I do the same thing on the weekends that I do during the week -- try to handle being sick! No, I don't go out of town. No I didn't go out for dinner. I hardly go out of the house!

Okay. That's my rant. And also now I know I'm not the only one who has songs mysteriously disappear or duplicate on iTunes. I guess there's something to be said for finding out I'm not alone :-)

I have the exact same problem right now with my period, if that is what it is........

I suffered very bad with uptight/locked like jaw, especially at night. Lyrica has been so helpful with that.

Agh, I have a lot of duplicates and half albums in my iTunes too, but I just can't deal with it. What I really have a problem with is iPhoto, tons of duplicates and triplicates, it runs so slow I can hardly use it. Sorting through it is on my list to do on that magical day where I have 12 hours of straight energy to devote. Or I could do it 15 mins at a time...

Annie said...

Ugh, this both increases my hate for iTunes and makes me feel like at least I am not the only one!

Grr, birth control... I'm going to see my gynecologist tomorrow because the new pill she put me on sucks, and she put my sister on a cooler one that only gives you your period two or so days. That sure beats having it for ten or so days (which used to never happen to me).

I love the BatLlama.

Good ones today, Annie!

I hate break-through bleeding on the pill...I think sometimes it's our messed up endocrine systems.

I've been known to find a full cup of tea still sitting in the microwave ice cold at the end of the day!

And, yes, I hate missing beautiful days because I'm too crashed to go out and enjoy them!

You covered it today!!

I so get this. I have this problem too! I just figured out a way to overcome it. I bought one of those Starbucks thermal coffee mugs. The really good ones. They run right under $20.00. Now I can keep my coffee hot for hours/or my cold drink cold for hours and I don't spill it. Love that!

Annie said...

Thanks Sue!

Also Dominique - I might have to follow your advice on this and just get a coffee mug that can keep the heat in!!
