I guess I'm pretty anal about some stupid things. I can't sleep if a bed has covers that are all messy. It doesn't have to be made up- the sheets and blankets just can't be all twisted and messy. I have to close the toilet cover completely before I flush because the thought of any poo or pee particals splashing on anything else in my bathroom grosses me out. I'm sure there are other things, probably things that Herbie points out all the time, but I can't think of them now.
One thing that I feel isn't stupid though? That's being on time. I can't tell you how bad I hate being late. Pet peeve is an understatement. I hate walking into places where it's really quiet and I have to walk in front of them to get my seat... places like a class room, movie theatre(I want to kill them when they do it! Just kill youself already), and any kind of church services. It just annoys me. I'm sure I annoy Herbie when I say, "Well, we are 5 minutes late...we might as well not go!" Yes, OCD much?
What prompted this post? I'm working at my lovely part time job tonight and Bruce Springsteen decided to come on stage 1 hour late. Will he play 1 hour less? Not quite.
As that brat from Full House would say, "HOW RUDE!!"

Just because I don't have a penis...
I am so mad right now.
I needed some simple maintenance done to my car. An oil change, tire rotation/balance, and an alignment.
I drop my car off at firestone today and walk back to work. I get a call soon after telling me that they just see no reason to do a rotation and balance on my car because I need new tires.
Ok, sorry, but no. No I freaking do not. Yeah, I've got almost 40K miles on them. I will need new tires within the next 10,000 miles, but not right now. I've had ONE flat tire since I've had the car. I'm sorry, but I usually wait until I'm having flats left and right before I get new tires. It might not be the safest way, but you know, I don't have money just flowing freely from my bank account.
I tell the guy to go on and do the alignment, an oil change and fix the tire with the nail in it. I'll find someone else to rotate and balance the tires and not get all hoity toity with me.
I promise if I had a penis, I would not have got that phone call. We are not turning a $200 visit (it's so much because I'm getting the lifetime alignment) into a $700 visit.
Suck it firestone. Here is a big F you to mechanics out there that think they can take advantage of women. Do what is asked and don't dig for more stuff to fix you assholes.
