Meet My Pet, Peeve

My sister Lex asked on her blog what our pet peeves are. Or one pet peeve. Hers was people not knowing how to drive through a 4-way stop or round-abouts. I agree with her completely. But mine...

Well, the first one I thought of is I hate it when people interrupt me. And it happens to me a lot. I do tend to ramble and repeat myself, so it probably happens to me more than to other people. But it just makes me feel boring or unimportant. And I hate it when people try to guess what I'm saying. Pete will do this to me sometimes. I'll be like, "I would love to-" and he interrupts with "-go to this movie?" And that's totally NOT what I was going to say! Then I go, "No, I would love to-" and he goes, "-eat some chocolate?" NO! Stop interrupting! Then you'd be able to find out what it was that I would love to do! Grr.

So, what is your top pet peeve? Either comment with it or write it on your blog.

Comments all around, first I am sorry if I have ever interupted you, I think I am bad at doing that because my mind does not focus well, and I start thinking about things when I should be listening, so I try to make a concious effort to listen to what people are saying. Next I don't know how you changed your links to see how long it has been since they blogged, but that is cool. Also good job on the pictures of Ivy smiling, I still haven't caught Lilly's yet. Also I am really appreciating your family picture right now because tonight we all looked decent and I thought hey, take a picture of us...I guess when you have 4 little ones you take what you can get. Also good luck with the potty training I think it is impossible to train a kid until they are ready, and that is just a guessing game to figure out when that will be. So anyway, my pet peeve is people who's comments go on and on and on...oh wait no it's not, it's actually clicky people who, I think, think they are better than me...did you catch that all?

i need to apologize to. i always do the guessing game. especially with dad. dad likes to go over things to make sure we're all on the same page over and over and i ALWAYS try to skip a couple steps in front of him. i get frustrated he won't spit it out and he gets frustrated that i don't just listen. so i'm sorry if i interrupt you. i also hate when people do that. or when you try to start a story and people keep over lapping you, or when you do start a story and a couple seconds later you realize no one is looking at you. very discouraging.

I'm sorry if I've ever interrupted you, too. It is very rude, and I hate it when people interrupt me, too, so I try not to do it, but sometimes interruptions burst out. And YES, I do read your blog! I just haven't had time to for a couple of days... the funeral in Salt Lake and all...

One of my pet peeves that I thought of today is when your neighbors snow blow all of the snow off of their driveway and sidewalk so that they are shiney bald and blow it all into the street so that when you are driving your little car, you get stuck. That SO PEEVES me and I can't figure out how someone can be so inconsiderate and dumb. The point of moving snow is so that travel is easier, right?
