Things I'm sick of...
1. Movabletype interface - does someone know something I don't, it takes forever for it to load and stuff and I don't get the cut and paste thing, is there some kind of guide I should read?
2. U of A Football talk - I just can't take anymore of it, everyday there's some new announcement. Until you announce Broyles has finally retired been excised, please quit telling me every time Mitch Mustain goes to the cafeteria or Peyton Hillis calls his parents... 2 games, 2 games from a National Championship... 2.... probably.....still a BCS, top ten ranking easy...
3. Office woman - the woman who refuses to let me turn the muzak off in the office. She really enjoys it.... freak....right now it's, "I will always love you", done as an instrumental light jazz arrangement... oh, by the way, the Dolly Parton version... who makes this crap? I have John Legend blaring from my computer speakers in passive agressive protest.
4. Mike Huckabee. I wish he would crawl under the rock of some glorified position with the Rep. party or the SB convention and leave us alone. What a crooked little man. If he were elected President, I'd have to move overseas, no really, I would, it would be Central London Confidential... wait... I like that... anyone want to sponsor my new life in the UK? No? worth a shot...
5. Taxes - Not paying them, just remembering about them. Assessing? What is that? My parents told me I needed to assess and I know that, but why can't I get an email reminder? [sigh]
6. American Idol showing four people who can sing and seventy-three people who have lost their damn minds. And then having them all sing the same song to make a freak-show montage that's obviously set up. Audition shows used to be the best, now they're just the worst. [But that boy from Bryant could blow, even if he looks like a 60's Cuban Revolutionary. Word around the campfire is he's a substitute teacher in Bryant schools and ministers to the homeless. I guess that sorta explains "the look". He's my horse, if he makes the show, I'll be voting for him, I won't be watching cause that's LOST, but I'll vote, I like his panache. Good luck to him.]
7. Not having spell check on Movable. How do I get this, someone help me, I can't live like this anymore and I have no Google toolbar on the work machine, which is also something I'm sick of.
8. The state of the Union address (which I just typed Onion, which made me laugh) - [arg!] first of all, W. is just not a speaker, he should have emailed it to the country. Then the Democrats get a rebuttal, more snooze. Then every news agency in the world has to have analysis, of a speech, in which everything he said would be offered in more detail next week. I wish he would resign. I do. He should. It's embarassing that we allowed him to have 8 years because he started a WAR the year before his re-election... hmmmm.... Huck is taking notes no doubt....
9. Lists of ten things... except Letterman's his are good....
Okay, I had to rant and I have like nine tv blogs in a row, changing it up...

Comments
1. MT is a unique critter. I'll just say I'm glad I don't pay for it. And no, I have no experience whatsoever, in all the world-wide interweb, with any site loading slower, even for comments.
2. My husband has taken to referring to MM as "Buttstain." He thinks he's HILARIOUS.
3. What mysterious power does Office Woman hold over you? Are you enthralled? Hyp-mo-tized? Just start wearing really loud cologne and tell her it's to drown out the Muzak. And DUDE, Dolly Parton WROTE "I Will Always Love You," and I defy you to tell me that she doesn't own that song when she sings it. Have you never seen "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas?" Are you made of stone?
4. He's not going away. He's going on Crossfire or some rot. Fortunately, I will be at church at that time. Come to think of it, who is watching those right-wing political talk shows on Sunday mornings? Aren't THEY supposed to all be at church?
5. You have practically forever (read: any amount of time over 2 weeks) to assess. Chill.
6. The Castro impersonator. I was all gung-ho for him, then found out he was an Arkie, so more so...and then I found his MySpace page, and saw the photo of him in front of the LR skyline toting a ginormous gun of some sort. Casts the fatigue look in a whoooooole new light. And for AI in general, pleasepleasePLEASE tell me you are down with Brian Byrne's AI screen caps on flickr. Please. If not, email me. Or maybe I'll post it for tomorrow.
(side note: you need TiVo in the worst way)
7. Use Firefox (it's free) as your browser. It comes with Google Toolbar, and applies a spellcheck program to everything--it's even a spellcheck I can stand (I usually turn them off), because it's unobtrusive.
(side note: Did you get a Bloglines account yet? That's the deal. I listen to John Legend, you get Bloglines and read Brian Byrne.)
8. Can't. Go. There.
9. Did you see whatsisname doing John Madden on Letterman the other night? I laughed myself sick. Fave quote, "Dave, people don't want to see 'A' incredible hulk. They want to see 'THE' Incredible Hulk."
Seriously. Get with me about the Idol stuff. I will hook you up, and you will laugh like an idiot.

Well, I suppose I could blog on the office woman one day soon. She holds the power that all ultra-annoying people hold, you want to fight them, but you know you will only end up destroying yourself. AHHHHHH! Right now she is telling everyone who comes through the office door about her money being "stolen" by an ATM this weekend. I don't think the FedEx guy really cares, I know I don't....sigh...
Can't use Firefox at work, I like the Netscape at home, but perhaps I will try this Firefox fad sometime. I did get a bloglines account, but I forgot how to get into it, I'm working on that....
And the guy on Letterman is hysterical, when he was eating the chicken wing I lost it. "It's a lot drier than I thought it would be..."
Hystreical.
Oh, and I can't comment on the Ninjapoodles blog, I can read it, but my server blocks the pop up to comment...sigh...........
