Things That Piss Me Off!!

I'm going to start with the number one thing on my list, right this moment, of things that REALLY piss me off.
For starters, there are really RUDE neighbors that don't know common courtesy of when the hell to SHUT UP and be quiet. No, this in not a problem with my awesome neighbors J & K, who I could only WISH lived right next door to me, but the neighbors who do in fact live RIGHT NEXT DOOR, and who have kept me awake all night.....current time, 5:48 a.m. Mainly, it's just been a LOT of yelling and banging around, music on and off, but it's mainly the banging that's kept me awake. The vibrations through the building.
Which leads me to #2 on my current list of things that piss me off...people who say they will do something, then do the complete opposite. Like when I went and knocked on their door, and asked them to keep it down, explaining that I have 4 kids, and I would like to get SOME sleep this weekend. They said "sure, no problem"....then got LOUDER!!!
Brings me to #3...The police department and their ignorance. I understand that it's a Saturday night, and I'm sure that their is a lot going on out there in our cold ass city tonight, but spare one cop to come out and tell these damn people to shut the fuck up, please. An ounce of prevention.... I think the last thing this world wants right now is a VERY tired, and EXTREMELY pissed off mother of 4 kids. Who knows who I'm gonna blow up at! (Doesn't help that I'm also PMSing hardcore either!!)
#4 I managed to fall asleep for about 20 minutes around 4:15, but then the baby woke up, and Dave decided that instead of getting out of the bed and walking to the crib, that he would instead basically ROLL OVER ME/CRAWL OVER ME, and in the process, wake me up. Thanks. (This, after bitching all night about me coming to bed)
#5- Don't complain to me that you have a HORRIBLE tooth ache and need to see a dentist desperately, then eat chocolate all night. And when I say all night, I mean ALL NIGHT. He wakes up slighty, reaches for a chocolate. Rolls over, reaches for a chocolate. I'm serious, he keeps the damn candy next to the bed. Uh, hello? No wonder your damn teeth are splitting. It's all the SUGAR!!!!
You ever reach the point to where you are SO damn tired, but once you pass a certain point you just CAN'T go to sleep? That's where I'm at right now...the noise level has FINALLY gone down, but I know that I am so irritated at this point, that there doesn't seem to be much hope for me going to sleep. And the worst part is, Dave has to work tomorrow, and so I'll be stuck, awake, taking care of the kids. FUN! (Sorry kids, looks like mom is going to be really cranky tomorrow)
#6- I'm just throwing this one in here because it just popped into my head, but for the love of God, if I NEVER nag you about doing the things you like, if I NEVER nag you about spending time doing what you want to do, DON'T DO IT TO ME! I NEVER ask to go out, I don't go to the bar, I don't go out with friends-even if they beg me, the only time I ask to spend money is for the house-(even when he gives me money and tells me DON'T spend it on stuff for the house or groceries, I still do anyway). I don't get time for myself, so don't piss me off by constantly complaining if I decide to spend an HOUR or two playing a damn computer game. Considering that my ENTIRE life is centered around YOU, and I live my life taking care you and our kids while no one does anything for me, I think I should be entitled to a damn computer game! It's not like it's all consuming or something! And should I decide to take a "day off" and zone into the computer game, it's so RARE that it really shouldn't be an issue. Not some life altering moment that you need to sit and bitch about all damn night and into the next day.
#7 don't do the dishes or clean a room in the house one night every two weeks when I do it every damn day then expect to be able to throw it in my face..."Well I cleaned the house!" No you didn't. You did the dishes. woo-hoo. Thanks, I appreciate it, but woo-hoo. Do you know how many loads of dishes I do in one day? Okay, so you picked up the clutter in the living room. Ummm, who's stuff did you have to pick up? Yours. Did you do any of the chores that are designated as "yours"? You know, the ones that you are "supposed" to do? The ones that I never nag you about because I understand that you work and I don't and that you are supporting our family while I stay at home every day and I wind up doing anyway? Did you do those ones?
#8 Please, I beg of you, don't take your clothes off and leave them on the floor (or stewn acroos the house) when there is a laundry basket less than a FOOT away from where you are leaving them. I'm sure if I actually measured, it would be less than 6" away from the basket. I'm sure you think this is "technically" in the basket, but it's not. Let's use a sports analagy here....Orlando Magic playing L.A. Lakers. Lakers are up by one point. Shaq goes to shoot the ball off a rebound, as he lets go of the ball the buzzer sounds...ball is flying through the air....heading for the basket.... he misses by 4 inches. Do the Magic win the game? That's a stupid question isn't it? There is no "technically" in the basket. There is no Ref that's going to blow his whistle and say "Well, I got into a fight with my wife last night, and I think that he 'Technically' made the points." Uh uh. Not going to happen. I don't care if you have to think your Shaq every night in order to get the damn pants in the basket, just do it. There you go. You are now Shaq, taking a Nike endorsement. Just Do It.

There's a whole lot more out there that pisses me off, but I'll have to save it for another night when I'm not dually pissed off at my neighbors and at my boyfriend at the same time. I'm sure there's a redundancy in there somewhere, but I am at the point that I just don't care. I don't even think I have the patience to run a spell check and do a self grammar check tonight. I think this is going up in all it's PO splendour. (The neighbors are starting to argue again...damn them! What I wouldn't give to live out in the middle of NO WHERE right about now!!)

Intil later, BLAH!

You should move into the crackheads appartment when she leaves. I'll even help you move! That way we both get good neighbors next to us! J
