They call me Negative Nancy

Last week was a crappy week. This week was going to be better until I woke up today and realized that it would not. It wasn't necessarily the events of the week, more my attitude about the week. Now, this may come as a shock to you guys, but sometimes I am just an ornery person. The problem is, I have no one here to take it out on (unless I want to be rude to my boss and get fired.) As I have no outlet for my foul mood it seems to last longer than usual. So just for future reference, here are some things that will most definitely spark this mood, that is, things that must go.

• Plowing into me in an elevator. When waiting to get in an elevator, please give the people that are already on the elevator time to get off.

• Not washing your hands. Am I the only one in the world that has been taught to wash after using the toilet? ESPECIALLY in a public restroom when others are watching. COME ON!

• The spelling of ornery. It is stupid and does not sound like it is spelled. It makes me ornery just to read it.

• Correcting my grammar incorrectly. If you are going to be lame and correct me, please do it correctly. For instance, I do believe that the plural of skinny (as in skinny jeans) would be "skinnies." I do NOT believe the plural of skinny is skinny's. Nor do I believe the plural of hoody (or hoodie depending on how you spell it because I believe they are both made-up words) is hoody's. Last I checked 's was possessive. Yes, it most definitely is. In order to make my life a little simpler, I now try to use "skinny jeans" rather than trying to shorten it. Ironic.

• Pawning stuff off on me simply because you do not want to do it. I will do it because I am a lowly BAP; however, I will get you back like I did today. I can be a witch too.

• The washers that say they only have 6 minutes left and then take 20 more. Lame. Another reason I hate doing laundry.

That is my list for now. Know that there is more, it just depends on what I experience throughout my day. OH! While I am at it (though they really don't affect me anymore) why must you use a suitcase as a backpack? When did backpacks start rolling? Even if there is a logical reason, they look stupid and that's enough for me.

I feel as though this quote is appropriate:

"My pessimism extends to the point of even suspecting the sincerity of the pessimists."
--Jean Rostand, French biologist and philosopher
