Just wondering, hyprocrite.

CSI: Georgia style
Dear Husband,
I understand that you are a hunter. I don't like it, but it fuels your machismo, so be it. You crossed the line, though, when you brought home the dead doe on Saturday. While dragging Bambi's mom through the carport, much blood was left on the ground, making it look like a crime scene. I don't appreciate having to step around coagulated deer blood to get in my car. They make this thing called a hose where water comes out the end - try using it, ok?
Love,
Your overly sensitive wife
Erin F. has a peeve:
I hate toasts at weddings especially when I feel confident to do one, but the english language gets me in such trouble. I just said "Congratulations to Jon and his New Wife.", meaning new in as just married, not new as in I was at his first wedding too. I should have just said her name, now I'm anti-feminist too. UGH.
Red has a few peeves:
Dear Family,
I like to watch sports on TV. Get over it. If you average about 3 hockey games per week and 2 football games and throw a couple episodes of "Ghosthunters" and "Dirty Jobs" in there for good measure, that's roughly 16 hours of TV viewership. That's about 2.5 hours per day. And usually I go down to the basement to my own little world to do this.
Compare that to 1 hour of Chiller (horror/sci-fi channel) every morning, followed by an hour of cartoons. Then the hour or two of cartoons after school, followed by a couple hours "Wife Swap" or "Nanny 911" or "You Are What You Eat" or "How Clean Is Your House?" followed by a couple hours of "CSI" or "Law And Order" or "Criminal Minds" or "House" or "Ghost Whisper" or "Bones" or "Eleventh Hour" or what the hell ever. That's 7 or 8 hours a day. Turn the thing off once in a while. And don't act like I'm hogging the TV.

I should not be able to identify you by your sneeze from 10 cubicles away. 5 times a day. Every day. That's a problem, and I suggest you see a doctor about it.

I quit drinking over 4 years ago. I quit smoking as well. I have no problem telling people the reasons for that. I will even agree that the incident that finally galvanized me into quitting those two things may have been a rather painful, embarassing event. However, I become quite irritated when people quietly intone that it's a gosh darn tragedy that I don't smoke or drink anymore, and they're really sorry it has to be that way. Like I've been forced into some boring, uneventful life. Really, it's OK. I'm not dead, just sober. It's not bad, just different.
