I pay with cash at checkout at most stores, and they ask for phone numbber!
After a power outage, our projection clock maintains the time, but turns off the projection. I noticed this as we were getting into bed last night.
I got up to fix it, and in the dark, I pushed the wrong button before pushing the button that turns on the projection. "I hope I didn't turn on an alarm," I said to Lena.
I didn't wake up until 12:08 AM—after eight minutes of the alarm sound in my dreams. When I figured out what had happened, I got up to disable the alarm, needing glasses, light, and flashlight. Because every clock radio seems to have its own interface (not standard), it took me a long time to figure out how to disable the alarm (two alarms, actually Alarm 1 and Alarm 2).
It would be smarter for them to have the alarm default to, say, 11 AM.
Our new neighbor, working on his vehicle at 1:00 AM. Don't hear a thing but his garage light is on. Only light in the entire neighborhood that's on. Really messes up the night sky.
Alarm? What is this you speak of?
LOL...now I'm beginning to sense some possibilities in the midst of my irritation.
Thanks for that.
I LOVE going off script with people !
Cell Phones and people who call from public places to talk about nothing because they are bored.
The conversation is always distracted by what's going on around them and they listen to approx. 50% of what is being said. As well, it becomes a chore just hearing what they are saying due to background noise.
That is not "conversation" in my book.
I'm pretty much done with that and just hang up politely these days.
Chuck roast is now just as expensive as a lot of the other cuts. Chuck roast used to be the cheapest cut out there, for beef. Maybe since chuck roast has a lot of fat and fat used to be 'bad' for you, but now is 'good' for you, or so the new buzz goes. Takes some of the fun out of pot roast.
Chickens cluck, pigs oink, dogs bark, cows moo, people talk. Most of the time they all say the same thing. A whole lot of nothing!
Every single table in every restaurant I have been to out of the last 5 was wobbly.
EVERY. SINGLE. TABLE.
It’s not just annoying, it results in spills.
Seems there is a market to sell some cheap little wedges to restaurants around the country to solve this very common problem.
We won't put up with that, either.Every single table in every restaurant I have been to out of the last 5 was wobbly.

It's because it's a 4 leg table, to allow 4 diners. A three legged table won't wobble or teeter, but it's hard to sit 4 people at the table.
My pet peeve of the day is people that do not think stop signs apply to them. Once in a while, sure, but lately it seems like about 50% do not stop or even slow down at stop signs any more.
In my world (school crossing guard) that’s called the Optional Stop Sign. Stop if you feel like it.

Just make the table bigger!It's because it's a 4 leg table, to allow 4 diners. A three legged table won't wobble or teeter, but it's hard to sit 4 people at the table.
