I try hard, really I do, to be a better person every time I kick off the covers first thing and slip into my slippers. But some things still annoy me, probably to remind me I have miles to go before I get to a point where I can be a real human being, older white male and all. And yes I am OCD as hell.
- Waiting in line at the store to buy smokes while the person ahead takes their sweet time picking out a couple of scratch tickets.
- The 10 minutes it takes each morning for my coffee machine to prepare my first perfect cup of java.
- Finding out the half full yogurt container I left on the counter instead of putting back in the fridge has been recycled by my son.
- Waiting to go someplace while someone looks for their sunglasses.
- Engineers blipping me for help on Teams at 4:55pm.
- Waking up at 4:00am and not being able to get back to sleep, especially on a weekend!
- Finding out people have been putting plastic recycle into the paper recycle bin.
- Half asleep dropping a pile of clean clothes (to wear after my shower) onto the toilet seat and discovering the last person left the lid up (happens waaaay too often).
- The annoying habit on TV of running the same commercial twice, back to back (allright already I heard ya the first time!).
- People who try to explain to me that pretzels and coffee are NOT a nutritious breakfast!
Honest, I am working on my self improvement, one baby step at a time. But first I need a pretzel.
