Another basic peeve: Snow, or more accurately, a lot of it. I hold the belief that, once you get out of high school and it doesn't mean a day off, it's irritating. I was looking forward to going to a show tonight that's likely cancelled because of it, and I'll be even more annoyed if it's still this bad tomorrow night.

My peeve is the lack of snow. Seriously. They forecast is ALL the time, and we never get it. I don't know what this WSFO's deal is with winter precip, but they never seem to get it right. Of course, I suppose it's better to err on the side of caution, but still. They get my hopes up for nothing. Their forecasts never make sense. I noticed that friday. When you look at the models, you just don't see the ingredients for snow, yet they forecast 3 inches of snow. Argle.

I wanna see some snow here. Stupid Alabama weather.

We got tons of snow hear. Right now there's about 8, maybe 9 inches, and it's still snowing.

I too wish you had the snow. That way we wouldn't get so much up north.

Yep, we folk over here have entirely too much snow. Our freaking pipes burst. Which means no heat.

My peeve right now is hockey fans. Or should I say, drunken hockey fans. Same thing really....

I was at a game last night, and the guys behind me wouldn't shut the crap up. Nothing but shouting the entire time, and wanting more fights.

Yeah, I hate going to fights where hockey games break out...

Actually, I love college hockey. All of the hockey, few of the fights.

Having lots of homework on a night when I have to waste three freaking hours at Pizza Freaking Disgustingly Filthy Hut.

Science experiment report plus Factoring polynomial inequalities divided by persuasive essay on when people should be granted adult responsibilities = sucks.

Right now, it's small stuff like banging your elbow on a table that's getting to me. Twice I banged my elbow, and once I banged my head on a shelf...yarr....

When you get to college, you will wish for high school homework.

If/when you go to grad school, you will wish for undergrad homework!!!

I got my atmospheric radiation homework back today... I was upset when I saw that I had gotten 3/20 on it... Then I found out that the average in the class was 1.5/20... I had the high score... with a freakin 15%

I'm going to friggin' explode my computer.

You know what happened? For absolutley NO REASON it erased all my files in my account including all my avatars, banners and any other WORK that I had been WORKING on ALL WEEK. My music library is gone, so now I have to go and find all the CDs I used to have (from my friends or something) and rip them. I HAD ALOT OF MUSIC. Another thing that's gone now is all my pictures I ever took. That includes all the precious memories from Seattle last year, pictures of British Columbia and probably some other ones that I'd of liked to keep. There was this poetry thing that was due tommorow and I was just going to finish it off tonight in my free time, but NO now I'm going tohave to type out all that crap AGAIN, all that crap that I'd been working on ALL WEEK. Oh wait, I CANT because windows insists on making all those basic programs disappear after a while.

I'm getting a Mac.

Well, lat night I did a scan and there was nothing. So, unless something happened in my 2 hours of sleep then I don't know. When I logged in it said some thing like "Error finding personal settings for user" or something.

I bet you a shiny nickel it's all still there somewhere. And anyway, there's always undelete.

Hmm. Right now, how my compy won't burn ANY cds decently without the songs jumping every five seconds. It's NEW. It's not meant to do this.

Yeah, seems like everyone has done that at least once or twice. It usually happens to me when I'm up late. The next morning I wake up and I can't turn my neck.

Zah. I hate that. That happenes every so often to me. Another thing that happenes that I hate is when I sleep funny and my entire arm is numb when I wake up.

Blargh.

That happened to me yesterday. I really don't mind it so much--it's kinda fun--but I'm always worried that while my arm is numb I'm accidentally going to break it or something by twisting it the wrong way or banging it into something.

One thing I like when my arm goes numb is that you really feel how heavy your arm is.

Heh, I guess I hadn't thought of that. Weird.

My peeve is my boss. Today we close at 6:30, like most everyday, with Friday being the exception. At 6:45 some people come a walking in to get some food. Note that the fryers were already off, and my coat was already on. So what does my boss have me do? I have to turn the Fryers back on and wait on the customers. And this was on the day I wasn't even supposed to work. Today is supposed to be my day off, but I got called in because one of my co-workers (who just happens to be one of my roomates) decides that he'd rather hang out with his girlfriend instead.....yarr.....

Don't worry IJ, it's a '52! Those things are worth like...umm....7 cents! American!

Right now, it's windy like crazy. My perfectly untamed hair was made even more untamed by it. I swear that if it was just a little bit stronger, it'd blow someone away.
