Things I Dislike for Pretty much no Good Reason! yay me!
These came to me while i was mowing my lawn (don't judge - some of you have your best ideas when pooping, or in the shower, or in the middle of the night - my mind just happens to work doing the only manual labor I do)

Things I dislike:

1. Starting the lawn mower -- I don't know why - it's not like it's hard, but I would just rather someone else do it -- or if it would just start on its own when I say, "Okay, lawnmower, I'm ready".

2. Blow drying my hair - I suppose this is just plain laziness on my part - but i hate it -- i'd rather go to bed with a wet head and wake up with Medusa hair than spend time blow drying it. It seems to take forever, but of course it doesn't because it's pretty fine hair. And it does look much nicer when I blow dry it, but honestly it's going to be in a ponytail by 1:00 p.m. anyway - either because it lost style or its getting in my face. Okay, okay, - I admit somehow a ponytail comforts me -- i dont' even know what that means.

3. Putting gas in my car -- Again - not hard. I think I dislike this one so much because it is the only thing my ex-husband ever did consistently for me. Where oh where are the put gas in my car fairies.

4. Wearing shoes - I've mentioned this before -- LOVE buying them - but they are the first thing I take off (even before the bra - but it's a close second) Maybe it's the 'country' in me. I just don't like my feet covered.

5. Incompetence -- I don't think everyone needs to be able to do everything well - but if it is your job - no matter how large or small, you need to be able to do it. If your job is to ask me if I want fries with that - do it in a way that I want some dadgum fries. But if you are wearing a pin that says 12 years of service and you can't bother to help me or don't know what you are doing when you pretend to try to help me - well it pisses me off.

6. Manipulation -- HATE HATE HATE -- this is why i hate it - because from yesterday's blog and previous ones you may have learned that i'll do just about anything for anybody - so trying to be manipulative is well i don't know what it is - but you can damn sure bet i won't being doing shit for you anymore.

7. Handing back graded papers -- I mean I'm glad the kids get to see what they made and my suggestions (for the 2 of them that actually look) but it takes so long and i'd rather be teaching and then my trash can gets full and i can't find a "organized" way I like to do it. Well, obviously because I don't like to do it.

8. Trying to come up for 10 for this list -- i'm telling you when i was mowing the lawn i had about 5 million and six - now - nada -nil - nothin'

9. Slow drivers -- i'm no speed demon - but seriously if the john deere tractor is going faster than you are - you need to realize the gas pedal is on the right. I got places to go, people to piss off - i mean meet

10. so this should be a good one right? end with the best and all that - hmmm let me think for a sec. OH I KNOW -- the fact that you never grow out of getting pimples -- they make you think you do when you are a teenager first getting them. BUT NO -- now not only will i have the occassional break out, but I have to also worry about when a hair is going to decide to pop itself out on my chin or neck. Completely, utterly, unfair.

So there you have it -- more reasons to think i'm insane.

Love to all - back to work tomorrow!
