I was in SLC with two of my FAVORITE gals ever, Alicia and Heather. And we decided to grab some pizza at The Pie. First of all, we are a strange bunch. We decided on a half and half pizza to suit all of our many tastes... what were the two halves you ask? Xtreme Veggie and Mountain of Meat. We quite enjoyed ordering that one. And it was DELICIOUS! Anywho... while waiting for our pizza to cook, I began to read one of the periodicals that was sitting in the waiting area. One of the articles has inspired me. It was regarding the author's top ten people and things she wants to punch in the face. My favorite on her list : West Virginia. No explanation necessary. So anyway, I frequently want to punch things in the face. Well... I usually say I want to smack them with a tree... but it's close enough right? So here is my list.
November - I know that I am supposed to be thankful during November because of the pilgrims and crap, but I HATE November. Too much togetherness and family stuff... Chontel + Busy + Family = FREAK OUT!
Juvenile Sex Offenders - Not only have they committed heinous crimes, they act like WE owe THEM something... "Woe is me, life is so hard, this place sucks, these rules are ridiculous..." STFU! The RIDICULOUS thing is that you were a sex offender before the age of 15.
Close Minded People - Living in a small-ish dominantly Mormon community exposes me to many different types of zealots. They all should be smacked with a tree. Why can't you just live and let live. There is a difference between sharing your beliefs with others, and stomping all over someone elses beliefs because you don't agree.
Tom Cruise - He is the definition of Napolean Complex. I have actually enjoyed some of the movies that I have seen of his, he's a pretty good actor... But OMG I can't stand the guy. I can count the number of his movies that I've watched on one hand. And I don't plan to increase that number.
Welfare Abusers - I am all for assistance for the needy, but I am SO against assistance for the lazy and manipulative. My mother told me the story of someone who worked on her car in an emergency... He actually told her that he was just waiting for his friends unemployment to run out, then it's his turn to work while this guy stays at home. Seriously??? Stop being a lazy ass, and earn your keep! Another thing that bugs me.... I really think that in order to get welfare you should have to pass a drug test. I have to be able to pass one in order to work, so YOU should have to pass one in order to get welfare. I think it's only fair. Why is this NOT a current practice?
Sickness - My body likes to screw with me. True, I have been getting more healthy as I get older... But I still get these ridiculous illnesses that last what seems like forever. Case in point: Early October I was stricken with an excruciatingly painful kidney infection complete with a cyst the size of a golf ball in my ovary. Ouch. And then just last week, I thought that I had Bronchitis... nope. It was Swine Flu. Which wasn't so bad as long as I didn't walk at all and didn't try to talk. My family wouldn't even really speak to me. They would make me food and then leave it on the floor in front of my bedroom door. So you see... these are merely the sicknesses that I have experienced in the last month. Sickness DEFINITELY deserves to be smacked with a tree.
There was originally going to be a list of ten things that I want to smack with a tree. But it was taking too long. I don't like thinking about things I dislike. I was going to format the text more too, but I didn't feel like it. Haha.. Blog'd.
