Pete Peeves:
1- people that waste water (i.e. leave it on while they're brushing their teeth, etc).
2- dirt under the fingernails. Just clean them, ok. (my mom says I can't be her daughter since one of her favorite feelings is having clay all over her hands and under her fingernails! A true artist!)
3- dirty dishes left on a couch, floor, desk, bed (anywhere but sink. Better yet--anywhere but the dishwasher).
4- people that don't finish or save the food on their plate. I guess I hate having things wasted altogether...and yes there are starving kids out there and yes I know their names; so please don't waste your food.
5- I hate when people run their fingernails on a chalk board, but worse yet, I hate when people have chalk on their hands and don't wipe it off. Actually, I can't stand it and have to pretty much leave the room. I'm a freak!
6- lateness. Being on time shows so much about someones character--or so I tell my husband every Sunday on our way to church late (If you've got kids, you can be an exception). I am especially bugged when people show up late and make me wait for them (yes I'm impatient, and also--always on time). Which leads to my next OCD-ness...
7- At night, I check to make sure my alarm is set like 5 times before I go to bed. I'm so nervous it won't go off and I'll be late to work-- (so I am a little OCD)
8- When someone calls me and then puts me on hold...grrrrr
9- Personas que me fallan. It sounds so much better in spanish. Basically, people who stand me up or don't follow through with things they told me they would. This is a biggie! Hypocrites falls in this category too.
10- Annoying drivers! People who don't use a turn signal, people that slow down 500 feet away before they turn, etc.
11- I thought of one more--I hate crude jokes, crude movies, crude talking, crude anything.
So c'mon--doesn't any of the above bother you too?

We should be best friends! I can't stand ANY of those things either!!! In fact...it's making me mad thinking about them right now! Did something imparticular piss you off?
haha that's funny! Yes these past 2 weeks I've had some crazy inlaw drama (just with one member in particular) and that inspired my blog post! haha!
7, 9, and 10 totally drive me nuts! I am possibly the furthest thing from a neat freak, but 1 thing that drives me bonkers is when cabinets and drawers (mainly in the kitchen) are left open! If you open the cabinet to get a plate or glass...shut it!!!!!!!!!!
omg, #9 is my absolute biggest pet peeve ever. I really really HATE it when people flake on me too!!
I'm totally the exact same way with #6,7,9,10,11! Fortunately, for my own sanity, I'm not a clean freak. :) (much to the chagrin of others in the home...)
