My buddy Johann the Dog tagged me to list seven annoyances and tag seven other bloggers to do the same.
Here are seven of the many things that annoy me.
- Unexpected visitors - They show up at my house at the most inopportune times. If I want you to visit, I’ll extend an invitation.
- Slow drivers - Why do so many of them travel in the fast lane?
- Lack of space - I thoroughly enjoy my alone time and require a significant amount of space. A lot of people fail to respect that.
- Dependency - As an overly independent woman, I am easily annoyed by overly dependent people. I think everyone should strive to be self sufficient, as you never know when the time will come that you will need to be.
- Irresponsible pet owners - Responsible pet owners view their pets as members of the family and will go to great lengths to ensure their wellbeing.
- Telemarketers - In the rare event that I actually answer the phone when they call, I just hang up on them once they start talking.
- Guys who fail to get the message - Roger*, this means you.
I tag: John, Wm H, Blue Sloth, Jos, Robert, Jack, and Speedcat Hollydale.
Not directed toward Roger of The Callboard Blog.

Since I go by my middle name - people who can’t take the time to learn it and insist on calling me by my first name - despite working with me for 11 months.
That said, you’ve hit a lot of nails on the head.

Yeup - those are ALL annoying. Especially the one about the pets. Poor little innocent things.

i like the dependency one. so many woman have such a problem with this and it’s sad. i think women would earn themselves a lot of respect (self-respect even) if they could stand better on their own two feet. i value my career & ability to exist independently and am glad no one can ever take it away.
