Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I read about flea's mom, and laughed, I just forgot to share that I found it crazy! I am more likely to think "oh, of COURSE it is the woman who is taking care of the RSVP's" and get a little disgruntled for no reason because it has nothing to do with me

I have been thinking about some things that annoy me out of proportion to how much they affect me or how important they are- like our cleaner (and several other people) shut off the lights in the common areas and offices. They are automatic lights people!!! They turn themselves off! And I can barely see in the kitchen and bathroom- AND when I enter my office I have to put everything down so I can switch the lights on. They are automatic-- I repeat automatic!

Also, I hate when people call to ask about our nursing program for other people. We don't accept anyone who is coming directly from high school- they are either RNs already or have a bachelor's degree and I judge husbands who call and mothers and dads, but not quite as harshly. I have never had a wife call.

Anyone else have weird annoyances?

Herding cats for fun

I have one: my sister gets into my stuff whenever she visits. Last time she picked up DH's wallet and poked into it. Claimed she just hadn't seen a minimalist one like that. I didn't say anything but I was quite annoyed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On the Trump stats front, I'm much more convinced that he's lying about his height than his weight, but am REALLY ANNOYED by the athlete picture comparisons. Don't we use those athletes as part of the reason why BMI is BS? Muscle is heavy. And people can look all different ways at the same weight.

Anyway, I am also really annoyed to feel like I am defending the lying president.

I'm just happy I'm within a couple pounds of the Cheetoh in Chief and carry it much, much better despite being 3 inches shorter than he. Maybe I'm storing some of the weight in my normal human-sized hands?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

YES. And doesn't everybody in the entertainment industry lie about their height? In real life men are almost always shorter than they look on TV and women are almost always taller.

(Plus, I just... of all the things this shithead is currently lying about, this is what the internet wants to talk about today?)

Our wings are not tired.

If it were any other shithead I would agree, but if it pisses him off and makes his day worse then I am okay with it.

I have many annoyances, but it seems to vary wildly from day to day. Some days, every single thing. Fortunately today is not one of those days.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just found an extension to hide other people's likes on Twitter. I think this will be a good thing for me. I don't have to fall down rabbit holes of other people's valid conversations that will nonetheless make me miserable.

Seriously. I mean, I get that sometimes you need a break from the real issues, but christ.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

this is an easily provable lie though and that is where I get so much satisfaction in it. It is not clouded by my clear failings as a liberal snowflake emotional woman.

I am also enjoying the stuff that other people are tracking for me: [link]
