Pet Peeves...Take Two

As I gotout of the shower last night, I realized there are a few pet peeves of mine that I forgot to mention.

So as I said, some of my pet peeves came to me as I got out of the shower. Why? Because as I stepped out of the shower, all clean and moisturized (baby oil is amazing! I highly recommend it), my legs silky smooth, in struts Choop the cat. I tried to run but my body wouldn't cooperate so I just stood there and watched as the cat made a beeline for my freshly-shaved, baby oil-covered legs and then he *gasp* rubbed up against said legs and trotted off, leaving copious amounts of long black cat hair stuck to my legs. The horror! The horror! I'm not sure why the cat insists on doing this every single time I smoothify my legs but I can tell you this much--it's definitely a pet peeve (ha I just realized it really is a "pet" peeve =P)

After wiping off all of the cat hair, I got dressed and then realized I was an idiot. See, before I get in the shower I take out my contacts. Well, like the idiot I am, I forgot to find my glasses before I took out my contacts. That may seem like no big deal but I'm pretty much blind without my glasses (I've reached down to pet a cat and then realized that the "cat" is really my backpack..or a towel...)so trying to find my them without being able to see is next to impossible...and yet I forget this almost every night! One day I'll learn...hopefully.

But...that's all for now folks!

Pet Peeves

Since my blog is titled "Rants,Raves, and Randomocity," I figured I'd get a nice rant out there. Like most people I have some pet peeves; things that absolutely drive my bonkers, and not in a good way. So, I'm going to get 'em off my chest:

-when people use the word Bipolar to mean a mood"OMG Jennie you're being so bipolar right now." How does that work? Just because I'm upset with someone doesn't mean I'm "being bipolar." I mean, bipolar is characterized by periods of both mania and depression so how can I be both at the same time? And if I have bipolar, I'm bipolar all the time. It's an illness; that'd be like saying "OMG Jennie, you're being so AIDS right now."

-Weird iPhone autocorrecting: The author day I was trying to type the word "Fascist." My iPhone autocorrected it to "caviar." No joke.

-Phantom hairs: If you're a girl, hopefully you understand this and don't just think I'm nutso. Basically, it's when you can feel a piece of your hair somewherei on your body (for me it's usually on my chest or back of my arm) and you CANNOT find it! But you can feel it. Ugh

-My cat licking: This drives me crazy; my cat is an obsessive groomer. I don't know if you've ever heard a cat lick himself (and his brother) over and over and over but I have and I swear my eye starts twitching like crazy whenever he goes on one of his hair-licking benders.

-When someone loses my place in a book: not naming any names but MY SISTER lost my place in a book once...it has forever scarred me. See, I was reading the 4th Harry Potter book when my sis asked if she could read it right quick (she's a speed reader on crack) so being the fabulous little sister I am, I said yes. Well she finished it and gave it back to me; only SHE LOST MY PLACE!! And I detest reading the same thing twice so I never read it...or any of the subsequent books. Oh and I never watched the movies after the 3rd one because I don't watch a movie until after I've read the book..ugh

But, that's all for right now folks!
(I know I know you're surprised the list wasn't longer...)
