I begin each morning by checking my email. Today I had five (5) more unsolicited emails, three from politically-focused entities trying to tell me how to think and two from a financial blog telling me how to invest my dwindling funds. Oh, and then there are the additional emails hawking their products simply because I have shopped at their store or online.
I could go on and list more of my peeves. I bet we all have lots of them. Many, many niggling irritations!
Just for the heck of it I looked 'peeve' up in the thesaurus. (I remember the thesaurus that sat on our bookshelf in the hall. The one with the corner of the paper cover torn, and curled back. The book that had magical words in it!) I enjoyed seeing just some of the synonyms for 'peeve':
thorn
ruffle
vexation
bugbear
botheration
tribulation
fleabite
albatross
hair shirt
Ah, such fun. Now I feel better. I don't feel quite as dandered!
Thanks for reading! What exasperates you?
I am inundated with texts asking for money. I'd need more money than I have to fulfill the requests. Mark has the ABC morning show on when I get up. The twitter-twatter--hahahah higher pitched voices they use drives me up the wall. I know, but really?
