I've blocked people, too, in these situations. I get sooo mad. I like loose leaf tea better, too. My favorite is Chinese gunpowder green tea. Number 7 bugs the crap out of me.

But you had longer hair than me, so that was the rationalization for what I was seeing (albeit, out of focus). Jenski, I've also been honked at. Usually I honk right back. Occasionally I give the one fingered salute. Sometimes I feel bad that I made such a crude gesture. Sometimes not. ;-) Amber, I know what you mean about how those people just make the back-up worse. You are absolutely right about that. ugh. Texas Seestor – no, you weren’t always leaving globs of hair in the shower.

As someone still living in Boston, I admit I find great pleasure in preventing the racing pusher-inners from getting in front of me. ESPECIALLY if they are in a bigger car. I've been honked at before for doing so, but seriously, get some manners! Driving on the long stretches of straight road this summer in the southwest, I was amazed when people started merging immediately and politely when the lane didn't end for another 1/2 to 1 full mile ahead.

That always bugs me. Of course, it's a bottleneck, and people are going to be going slower, but then when those people rush past you and try to merge in, it makes you have to stop for longer than you would have if they would have merged when the traffic was just moving slow. I tend to block those people out, too. Now I'm on a rant. :-P You know, don’t the mergy people know that they are the cause of making traffic even slower than what it could be? That always bugs me.

I also hate the crunch sound/feel of squishing bugs and use a huge wad of toilet paper to pick up and flush or squish the offending bug. Like Danielle, I am not a big fan of spiders, or really any other kind of bug, for that batter. 2. I love that story. It is a family favorite. Of course, it makes me wonder...was I notorious for leaving globs of hair in the shower? If I was, sorry. 5. I REALLY dislike psychological thrillers. I also have a habit of closing my eyes during previews and sometimes hide my head in a pillow and cover my ears so I don't have to even hear it. 7. It totally annoys me when drivers zoom up the lane of a merging road. Are their schedules that much more important than everyone elses??? There are several places here that are like that and sometimes I block cars from doing that. 9. Yum. Chocolate. Especially, peanut butter and chocolate. 10. I am definitely a coffee drinker, but Danielle has turned me on to loose tea which I have to agree, makes better tea. It definitely sounds like we are seestors! A few comments:

It turns out that they are carrying a bunch of darker chocolates from various brands now. The chocolate from the various countries is Dove Origins. They are on sale this week. But I'll warn you, there isn't very much chocolate in each bag, so the price per piece is pretty high. I just eat one piece a day to stretch it out more. And on the ice cream note, I bought dark chocolate Dove ice cream sauce the other day and it wasn't until I got home that I realized it also has mint in it. bummer. Guess I won't be using it with vanilla ice cream to make my chocolate/peanut butter mix. Amber, I got the chocolate at Target.

Irish Creme. It's so..WOW. I also love Earl Grey, too. There is just something about the blend that gives such a good pow to my taste buds. I should try that All Day Breakfast, as I haven't tried that one before. And I'm out of Passion Fruit Papaya. Man, I really need to get on ordering tea.

I prefer to use a shoe to dispatch the spider whenever possible so I don't have to feel it (or get so close to it). My favorite tea is actually Earl Grey. My husband thinks it's because of Captain Picard. But really I just like it best. I HAAAAAAAATE the crunch!

Then I saw it today scrambling across the floor. This prompted me to take a bottle and smoosh it. Have I picked it up yet? Nope. I can't stand squished spider ickies. eehhhhh *shivers* Now I'd like to try the new Dove stuff. Do you get it at the grocery store? I am pregnant and chocolate and baklava sound sooo good to me right now. And dark chocolate ice cream mixed with peanut butter sauce. I'm terrible. :P eeeee there was this HUGE spider in our shower the other day and I was so scared it was going to fall on me. Then I saw it today scrambling across the floor.
