It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Troubles. I’ve said it before, but this should be named “things i’m annoyed / confused / want to complain about”, however I couldn’t figure out how to make any of those into a snappy title, so Tuesday Troubles it is. And yes, I do realize that these aren’t true “troubles”. I know these for sure could be defined as first world problems!
~So yesterday I’m reading the Parade section (you know the magazine that comes with the ads) of the Sunday paper (better late than never) and I come across this “Special Report” about some youth hormone. Hmm, interesting. So I read the entire “article” and then realize it’s an AD. See that writing in the right hand corner. WTF? Why on earth do magazines allow this? Now I am not only never going to buy this little pill, I am going to be super annoyed every time I see that Parade magazine from now on. UGH!
~OMG, we must discuss last night’s season premier of the Bachelorette. Does anyone else get as uncomfortable as me? Those introductions that the guys did last night? SO awkward. Ick. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have even let the #hashtag or the fantasy suite guys in the door. Fantasy suite dude was creepy and will be lucky to ever get a date, with anyone, again. My early picks are the foreign soccer guy and the dad who bought his adorable kid. But I am really still troubled by those intros. Do they make them act stupid or do they do that all on their own?
~I have mentioned it before, but there is this kid at school that calls L “Baby Face”. OMG it drives me batty. L doesn’t care and kinda just knows that this kid is a jerk and doesn’t let it get to him. Last week he told L that Mickey Mouse was “for babies”. He must have asked L where he had been and then when L told him he was on a “Mickey Mouse Cruise”, he took the chance again to call L a baby. Do you think this kid’s parents know he runs around calling other kid’s names? I mean I think I would know if L did this. I talk to the other mom’s in his class and I know they’d tell me.
~I still feel so out of touch from my trip. Catching up from that (and then going away again for Memorial Day) has been a bear! I am *almost* there though, so I am pleased. But I haven’t gotten a chance to comment on anyone else’s blogs ;(. I have been reading in google reader (I’ll miss you), but I haven’t commented. I feel awful.
~What on earth does everyone do with books they have finished reading? Save them? Sell them? Pass them along to a friend? Do tell. I feel like I am letting good books just sit because I’m not sure what to do with them. Does anyone know of any places I can donate some chick-lit to???
That’s it from here for now! What’s troubling you today?
