pet peeves

we shared our pet peeves in tlc last week and of course i blanked...

today i realized what my top pet peeve is...or some of the ones up there...

a) when people type words and extend them with the consonants instead of the vowels. ie. when you read it and it's not what the person would actually say. like "love ittttttttttt" no one would hold a "t" that long, that's just nonsense. (on a side note "helloooooo" is ok, bc you can actually say that.)

b) when people are grammatically incorrect just to be "cool". or the phrase "lol". i think it's just silly, though less so than "rofl", which again, very few people do....

c) when people spell things wrong in order to be trendy...unless it actually sounds like the word AND shortens it. like "u" for "you" or "tho" for "though". but the days of "kewl" for "cool" annoyed me so much...

so bored...

being crippled and cooped up at home is leaving me with a body sized print on the couch, and utter boredom.

of all the everyday things, showering is the most difficult thing by far. i ca't get my cast wet so i have to plastic baggy it, i have to keep my arm elevated above my heart so it's like a perpetual korean punishment, and washing your hair with one hand is shockingly difficult.

some math humor

interesting article

it's a little sad but it's actually fascinating to watch the roomba clean the apt by itself...
