What Really Get's Me Going

Do You Know What Really Get's Me Going?

When I'm about to slip on a banana and someone yells " Wait" way too late.

When someone hurts or wounds an animal and
call it a sport.

When I'm waiting at the bus stop and the
bus driver passes me up.

When people are staring at me and I wonder why, I find out later that I have toilet paper hanging out of my pants.

When I greet someone in a friendly manner and that don't say a word.

When I go to a restaurant and order soup and its lukewarm.

When someone wakes me out of a peaceful sleep at 12:00 am.

When department stores put the wrong clothe size on clothes on  purpose.


And that just to name a few!!!!!

Your imagination soars and your creative ability is unique! Everything and everyone is so rushed they don't think straight and often don't care - clever write! Hugs, Jennifer.

I relate to what you said about how killing an innocent animal is a sport; I think bull fighting is flat out animal abuse, as is bull riding and bronco riding in rodeos (also in the years I took the bus and the driver went right by me - that gets me too!)
