Time for me to whine for a hot minute.
1. I have an infecty looking bump next to/around my nose ring, which grinds my gears enough as is. It doesn't hurt, but it's bulbous and gross and I have no idea why it's there or how to get rid of it. I went to my piercer and got a piercing care regimen of sea salt soaks and tea tree oil, but that bugger is still there and it's fugly. Enter: the wonderful world of the internet.
Can I just tell you how much I HATE people who think they are so clever by being a smartass and not answering a legitimate question someone poses? I see this most frequently on Yahoo! Answers, but it's prevalent throughout the interwebs. All I did was Google terms like "nose ring bump" or "nose ring bump won't go away" or "nose ring aftercare" and read other people's questions and discussions on the matter. Some are pretty helpful, but when you get things like this:
..it really grinds my gears. If you have nothing helpful to say or hate nose rings, DON'T READ AND ANSWER A POST ABOUT NOSE RINGS.
2. I had to go to the lady doctor this morning, and while in the waiting room, there was a woman with a baby that must have just learned to crawl. Not only was her stroller blocking literally the entire aisle/walkway, but she was letting the baby just wander around. And grab my toes. And suck on my leg. And have me hold him up while he tried to stand. And prevent him from falling into the wooden chairs. The mother was just sitting there, reading a magazine and sort of half giggling, but that's about it.
Listen: just because you have a baby and think he's the bee's knees, it doesn't mean I do. And it doesn't mean I want to play with your baby at 9am before a doctor appointment. The kid eventually lightly hit his head on one of the chairs and the mother finally started paying more attention (not my fault, I promise!). Anyway, this whole situation seriously grinds my gears.
3. Packing up an entire apartment. It sucks. The apartment is a mess and it makes life feel more stressy than necessary.
Snarl.
Anything grinding your gears lately?

Agreed. On all counts. If people don't like nose rings, why are they even on a board about nose rings??
And don't get me started on the people who don't pay attention to their kids. One was in my office yesterday and nearly slammed it's fingers in our door because the mom wasn't watching it. WTF people, if you have a toddler/baby -- it's not my job to make sure it stays alive.
And moving, I'll come help pack if there are margs involved. Darn, it'd have to be a virgin marg for me...but I can still help. :)
Oh my goodness, the people at Yahoo Answers are ridiculous sometimes!
Oh my gawd. I don't have children (yet) but it annoys me to no end when people who do have children act like nothing else matters when you're in public, and esp at the girl doc....
I HATE Yahoo Answers! Never really helpful. Also, what is up with that lady in the waiting room?? Seriously??
