Random Acts of Irritation

Our kitchen STILL isn’t done. At some point, a company really has to stop lying to you and actually do their fucking job. Supposedly, Monday is that day, when they install our countertop that apparently had to be shipped in from the moon.

Tom Delay on Dancing with The Stars dancing to “Wild Thing” I saw a few seconds of this by accident, and I’m sorry to say I may take it with me to the grave. Please… I know Sarah Palin is the first reality Show politician, but please politicians, stop going on reality shows. We know you’re narcissistic egomaniacs. You don’t need to prove it anymore. At least Rod Blagojevich has been laying low. Probably combing his luxurious hair…

We just got a new cordless phone. My wife did a new thing where it rang and then she handed the cordless phone to me, twice, without answering it, thinking the calls were for me. By the time she got it in my hand, it had already gone to voicemail. Twice. When I mentioned this she got angry at me for having attitude and blamed the new phone for not working.

Our cable isn’t working properly and hasn’t for a while. The cable company’s attitude is pretty much “So what? Where you gonna go? We bought the other companies. Go get a satellite dish, then. Go. We don’t care. Now go get your shinebox…”

It takes me longer to learn new technologies now. Stupid aging process. And stupid Twitter, PayPal, HTML, and shopping cart integrations.

At least the new season of Dexter started. Love that show.

What’s irritating YOU, right now?

What's irritating me? The fact that the guy next door keeps running his electric leaf blower at random intervals. ON for three seconds, then off. ON for thirty seconds, then off. ON again for ten seconds, then off.

It's driving me shithouse.

My Doberman sounds like a tea kettle, you laugh but its not funny after 4 straight hours. He dug his way out of the dog pen again and walked his ass back to the house to see my mom and of course she is at work. So he is here crying and bringing toys to the door and jumping to watch the window every time something passes or a noise is made to see if she is home yet. It is cute for like the first 10 minutes and then its a why cant I just put you back in your pen with ginger (other Doberman). Oh ya, you leave the pen or find some way out. Why can't he be like ginger even if the pen door was open and there rabid squirrels chasing her, she would not leave that dam pen.

If you have a free moment in time (lol) stop by and see my latest blog post "I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU A FREE WEBSITE"

I'm so glad that we don't have cable cause if I was paying for crappy television service, I'd have to take up drinking and I'm completely worthless when drunk.

However, we have an old television that has one of the digital converter boxes....which SCORE!, nets us about 4 extra television channels to watch...PBS KIDS!!

However, if it is raining, windy, snowing, too cold, too hot, etc...reception is very bad. At least with old analog television, we'd get a fuzzy picture. With the digital stuff....you get nothing but a black screen with a box that tells you what you're missing "Martha Speaks"

I upgraded to HD and roadrunner and all that CRAP. Then one day it all just stopped working right. So I called Time Warner and they sent me a Power Boost and wiped out my bookmarks, saved emails and my entire collection of shoes.

Finding a blog template. That's annoying me. And, uh, people. Lots of people.
