saturday things...

... i hate:

buca di beppo. even with a coupon-keeper full of 50% off coupons i never ever want to go :| anyway tonight in a bid to eat dinner for under $20 we decided to confront our demon and go to buca di beppo for dinner. the wait at 4:30pm was AN HOUR!!! what on earth would Gordon Ramsay think of that... it's disgusting! i don't wait for good food, never mind lame bland crap food

people who dine out with their babies on saturday night. seriously, i have had small children for what seems like most of my entire life, and i just don't see the point in taking a baby out on datenight - it's no fun for anyone! they are just stuffed into a carseat in a booth in a crowded restaurant with no option but to scream about it. i have served my debt to society. i have stayed home for what seems like 88% of saturday nights since 2000 to save the world from the agony that is dining in the next booth to my children. i propose that people with babies be banned from restaurants (that do not have slides) on saturday nights :)

when diet coke in a restaurant tastes like cheapo crappo diet shasta and even when you get a new one and they SWEAR it is diet coke, it still isn't :|

the fact that my ipod is really really stupid and lame. i select a song to play (ie 'scary monsters and super creeps' by david bowie) and it plays it over and over again. i am usually so preoccupied buying ND filters and downloading e-books and replying to IMs and photoshopping icecream stains on shirts, that i don't notice until the 17th consecutive play that the song is on permanent, never-ending, maddening repeat. i don't know why it does it, but it drives me insane.

really lame boring women who stare at you, and then look away when you catch them staring, and then when you pretend to look away, they stare right back again. arghh, what is that??!

having to get up early on sunday morning (the underlying reason for all the above toxicity)

the fact that it only rains for about 35 seconds on days when there is a chance of rain and those 35 seconds are exactly when i am walking to my car :|

being too cold when the heating clicks off and too hot when it clicks on :|

getting used to a new keyboard that has home and end and up and insert in new locations :| i wanted a clickety keyboard so much, but i miss my old (quiet) keyboard already :(

my fancy new $6 moisturizing socks getting peed all over by the stupid dog. sure my feet were very moist after the peeing incident, but in a really gross way :(

off to bed to watch more 'weeds'......
