Things Driving Me Crazy Today

Ah, Tuesday. That day between Monday and Wednesday that is as obnoxious as a 2-year-old with a megaphone. Besides having to get out of bed this morning, here are several other things driving me crazy today:

• Slobbering toothpaste onto my workout clothes. I’ve only been brushing my teeth for four decades. You’d think I’d figure it out.
• Footnotes
• The end of pomegranate season. NO!!!*
• Eating TWO healthy meals in a row, and not losing any weight.
• Logging off the computer, and then remembering what I was supposed to look up.
• Having to flush the toilet more than once, and trying to flush it “quietly” the second time.
• “Yolo!”

• People with a positive outlook.
• My favorite mascara being discontinued.
• Disappointing novels.
• That feeling you get right when you finish your fourth Twinkie and think, “I should have had an apple.”
• People who want me to smile at the camera.

(I am smiling.)

• Not being independently wealthy.
• TV shows with “seasons” only 10 episodes long. That’s not a “season,” it’s a “mini-series.”
• Forgetting to buy Girl Scout cookies.
• Realizing it’s April Fool’s Day halfway through the day, and thinking of a really funny blog that will have to wait until next year.

*I will gladly fork out $15 for the last pomegranate.
