So Irritated I Could Make A Pearl

Today at work, I passed a guy in the hall. I was so totally grossed out by what I saw. He was a bigger guy. Wearing a white dress shirt that was so cheap and thin that I could see his chest hair. I was DISGUSTED!!! Men, if you are going to wear a white dress shirt to work, wear the tshirt underneath - or buy a better quality of shirt so that it is thicker. The Kmart 3 for 5 bucks shirt just doesn't cut it. There are just somethings that I do not need to see and that is one of them.

A new book is out about Barry Bonds taking steroids. Wow, what a shock that is. Never would have guessed that he got that way but not working hard but by cheating and using steroids. He is such a jerk.

In July, we have our family reunion. It is held every two years with the family that hosting it rotating between my grandma's siblings. The family that is hosting it this year is doing such a crappy job. Normally, we know the date about a year in advance. This helps in planning since people come from all over the country. Usually by Dec/Jan, we know the exact location (what park) and someone has booked blocks of rooms with two type of hotels, a mid-price one and a bit higher priced one. Well, the family this year has yet to block any rooms for us yet. So, I along with a few of my cousins decided we were going to stay at a specific hotel. I called the hotel and blocked some rooms and my other cousin sent the email letting people know the details. Since it is being held in Appleton this year, and the week before the EAA Fly-in, it is kinda important that we get this done soon. I was so pissed that the hosting family has done such a piss poor job of planning. Something tells me that this will not be as much fun as reunions past. That's ok, cuz the people I want to see the most will be there and we always have fun together.

ZOBMONDO!!

Would you rather...

Always show up 20 minutes late for everything

----OR----

always show up 90 minutes early for everything?

I would have to go with being early. I hate being late. Hubby says that I am always late but that is not true. If we are meeting people for a specific event I am on time. If it is a random kinda thing like, we'll be up there around 7ish - no big deal. 5 minutes won't kill anyone.

I am so with you on the shirt thing. Men should ALWAYS wear a undershirt/beater under a dress shirt. Cheap shoes and cheap suits bother me on men too.

I would rather be 90 minutes early. I am always early or on time anyway. Being late is very rude unless there is a legitimate reason. Everyone's time is valuable so no one should waste another's.

BTW, I never attend my family reunions because the same family member plans it every year and it blows. Have fun at yours and make side plans of fun for yourself!
