things i hate

1) This heat. This weather is absolutely ridiculous. Last night at 2a I could not fall asleep for the life of me, despite the fact that I had to be up for work in 6 hours. Why you ask? It is so godawful hot in my apartment that it is impossible to fall asleep. It's just uncomfortable. It reminds me of being in Morocco during 100D weather with no fan and no window in my bedroom. Not to mention that I don't have air conditioning and I constantly have 2 fans running, so my electric bill is going to be astronomical.

2) Old people. Actually, I should elaborate -- old people DRIVING. Don't get me wrong, I love old people. Really, I do. If you know anything about me, it's that I tend to ogle the elderly when they are holding hands, dancing, eating by themselves, etc. I would love to volunteer in a home, but its kind of pointless now since I may be moving in the next month or so. Anyway, back to what I hate about them. At some point old people shouldn't be driving. Honestly it's just dangerous for them and everyone else on the road. I understand that it may be taking away from their independence, but wouldn't it be worse for them to get in an accident??

Yesterday I was leaving the grocery store and I was pulling out of my spot. I was 3/4 out of my spot when the truck behind me, without looking, started to pull out of his spot too. So I honked my horn. The driver happened to be a really old man who couldn't hear that I was honking. I was laying on my horn and he just kept backing up. I hurriedly pulled back into my spot to avoid an unnecessary fender-bender in the parking lot of Jewel.

3) Grocery store checkout lanes. (this trip to the grocery store yesterday was particularly traumatizing) The store has 15 checkout lanes AND ONLY THREE ARE OPEN. I would just head over to the self-checkout lane, but there are at least a million people in that line. It's so annoying. Jewel, can't you just pay a few more people minimum wage and open up a few more lanes? It won't kill you. But your lack of checkout efficiency might kill me.
