What are your current obsessions?
What are your current pet peeves?
Re: Obsessions/Pet Peeves
Obsessions: Wedding stuff, red velvet cupcakes, my kindle, my cats.
Pet Peeves: everyone and everything else- or it sure seems like it.
obsession: Dexter. omg - just finished season 2 and cannot wait for season 3 to come in from netflix. also, guacamole, sundresses and getting excited to be able to have unprotected secks. we are starting TTC after my next AF visit.
pet peeve: people asking me when i am having kids...questioning why i'm not drinking at family events, etc. its annoying. my response is always "we have a loose plan but we aren't telling anyone what that plan is"...what if it takes a while, or doesn't happen at all. ugh. annoying!
also other pet peeves - people who change lanes in the middle of an intersection, people who don't say thank you when you hold the door for them (i always say "you're welcome" very loudly), and people who don't hold the door for you when you are coming right behind them.
i'll play you NQ!
obsessions- apparently nesting. i thought it was run of the mill insomnia but i guess only the preggo brain finds it normal to organize the kitchen and do laundry at 530a. summer clothes, pedicures and flip flops. i am so ready for rowing championship season and beach season.
pet peeves- i hate the phrase pet peeves. people looking at me funny at the gym.
Sweeeet!
Also, ditto to all of your "other pet peeves". Along with the addition of people that don't use turn signals and people on bicycles that ride in the middle of the lane.
Current Obsession: Anything to do with house selling, renting and moving.
Pet Peeves: Rude people and bad customer service.
Obsession... Jockey seamless underwear and HUE lightweight tights
Pet Peeve... people who need to swerve around every g-d crack in the asphalt on the road. If they are driving an SUV, I get even more annoyed. (obvs not talking about giant potholes, but a manhole cover, really?)
Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
I just sent you a request
Obsession: lemonade! I cannot get enough of the stuff lately. Also limeade. DH and I went to Longhorn steakhouse out of desperation on Saturday and I had some of their delicious limeade. I am currently looking up homemade recipes to bust out.
Pet Peeve: My MIL. She just irks me in general, nothing specific. Also, shaving my legs. I have no desire to do so but it's officially spring so I think I have to.
Obsessions - sugar, I gave it up for Lent and now can't get enough
Pet Peeves - baby changing her nap schedule, just as I had gotten used to the other one (OK not really, but I'm high on the endorphins from sugar)
Edited: another obsession, listening to my audition pieces 50+ times a day
Obsessions: Angry Birds. I'm way late to this parade and I hate myself for getting hooked, but I am. I seriously just want to get through the whole thing so I can stop playing. Also wedge sandals. I keep wanting to buy more even though I have at least 5 pair.
Pet peeves: People who reply instead of reply all to emails. If I CCed that person, it's probably for a reason. And if I CCed them back in after the first time you left them off, there's DEFINITELY a reason. And people who don't respond to emails. So unprofessional.
Obsessions: my dog, my husband; figuring out a night when I can go get ice cream with my husband. wearing dresses without stockings. wearing sandals. running. eating applesauce. drinking beer outdoors.
Pet peeves: five day work weeks. rain. rain on weekends. people who look at me with mouth agape, when I'm out running (it's not like someone is chasing me!). people who feel the need to force conversation--silence can be golden. my long commute.
Obsessions: flip flops, cadbury cream eggs, TV particularly the Killing.
Pet Peeves: buses who force you to swerve into the other lane because they decide it's time to pull back on the road, people who don't let you merge when they're already stuck in traffic, and my inability to stop comparing Emma to other babies.
Obsessions; Words with Friends, without a doubt! I just got it over the weekend and then my phone took a giant crap, but the genius bar at the apple store just fixed it
I will be stalking you all later to play but right now I have to go home and put all my apps back on.
Shoes. It's bad lately.
Pet Peeves: Slow walkers on busy sidewalks. People who litter. People who don't pick up their dog poo.
Obsession: Teen Mom 2.. I had never seen it, so I watched On Demand and literally sat up for 5 hours the other night watching.
Pet Peeve: Door knockers. Not kidding, I've had like 4 people knock on the door trying to sell me random sh*t in the past 2 days that I was working from home.
Obsessions: My new Ipad2, my daughter's hair, the internets, my post partum body.
Pet Peeves: elderly drivers, people who don't drive at least the speed limit, my stalled PP weight loss,
obsessions: fringe. dreaming up ways to move back to philly. my baby. (that's lame but true. )
pet peeves: LA drivers who all seem to own cars without turn signals. My SIL who just left from a visit and just posted photos to facebook where she cropped me out. I am so mad I want to cry.
Oh meldot...what a jerkface your SIL is! I'm so sorry!
my obsessions: DD Iced Tea, flip flops, the Sixers, and, as always, my dogs and kid.
Pet Peeves: People who lack the ability or refuse to plan ahead and then expect me (or anyone else) to rearrange things last second to accommodate their needs. My in-laws, for a variety of reasons.
Obsessions: My shore trip over Memorial day, starting Baby Numbers on solids, pumping, the royal wedding
Pet Peeves: Solids, pumping, time differences with Europe
OMG, why would she do that? That's just plain mean!
i have twentyfive games going. insanity
My current obsessions are Sour Patch Watermelons and rice krispie treats.
My current pet peeve is when women say "we" all the time when referring to pregnancy. "WE had a miscarriage. WE were bleeding. WE had *this* color discharge. WE have really bad morning sickness. WE are finally showing." Ugh. Silly, I know but I'm a cranky and crabby b*tch lately and hate when I read or hear people say it.
Yesterday after work I consumed 6 of them right after walking in the door. 6. Then I ate dinner and I then ate the last 2 in the box of 8. I just purchased 2 boxes of 16 when I was out shopping at lunch.
I am disgusting. I am aware of this.
who the hell does that!
btw LOVE the pic of you guys at the beach. you look hot mama
