1. I made a wrong turn on a through street in the city and couldn’t turn for blocks.
2. Not being able turn didn’t really matter since traffic was barely moving on the through street anyway . . . .
3. The rear window of an SUV had a dirty Rangers logo sticker on it, along with a New York Yankees logo in the colors of the Italian flag.  Okay, really!?  First of all, the idiot probably was born in Franklin Square anyway (Franklin Square, my hometown, as well as to many Guidos, is where I spotted this SUV, and it’s also “J-Woww’s” hometown from MTV’s “Jersey Shore” . . . oh I’m sooooo proud!), so stop with the damn colors on a NY sports team representing the country your grandparents came from . . . I don’t have a New York Islanders logo in Greek colors!  That would be ridiculous!
4. I’ve already heard more car horns in one day than I have heard in nearly 2 years in Kansas City.
5. Forgedduboudit . . . .
6. I had a slice of pizza for lunch.  Yum!
7. Nearly everyone on the streets during lunch hour had either a box of pizza, or just a small bag of pizza . . . yum!
8. I couldn’t turn right on red, but I was oh so tempted to . . . .
9. It took me 50 minutes t0 complete a 20 minute drive . . . awesome.
10. On the other hand, I got to use the diamond/HOV lane today and was waving traffic goodbye as I turned a 40 minute drive into an 18 minute one!  Wooo!
11. Every radio station finds a way to bring up the New York Yankees.  Ugh.
12. Dirty Rangers.

So I’ve been very much under the weather lately, so I haven’t been keeping this blog as updated as I would like (I think a WHOLE 2 days went by since my last one!).  Yes, I usually have THINGS running around my mind that I could definitely write about, and NO – typing isn’t too taxing – but when I’m sick, I don’t even want to think.  I just took a nap, so there is SOME minor functioning going on in my brain due to the slight recovery slumber has offered me, so I’ve decided to list – in no particular order of importance – ten of my pet peeves.  I invite you to comment and share some of yours, in order to vent about the really annoying ones, and laugh at the really silly ones.  Here we go:

1. Guidos.  I don’t know – is that even technically a pet peeve?  They annoy me, so I’m going to stick with that one.
2. Guidos dressed as clowns.  Ok I know that’s ridiculous, but clowns are terrifying to look at and useless – so can you imagine a GUIDO clown?!  That would be too much to handle. Read more »
