So I guess I haven’t actually written anything in a bit. Because I’m a grumpy bear these days, I figured I’d write a post of really annoying things.
- Construction in KW: I know, shocking. First they dug up Erb. Then that intersection at Courtland/Queen (and/or Courtland/Benton)… multiple times. Now Columbia. Of course, we all complain when the roads suck and we also complain when the roads are closed for construction. But who decided that the best time to redo Columbia (which runs north of UWaterloo) would be when school was back in session?
- Cyclists going the wrong way: I love cyclists, really. Except… those arrows on the road… they apply to you too. I’m not looking for cars or cyclists to come at me when I’m on the right side of the road. It’s fine if I’m on a straight road; usually I can see you then. But if I’m behind the ginormous SUV or turning around a semi-blind corner… good news… you’re not that big… I can’t see you. Plus, cyclists are on the road. There are arrows on the road. Follow the rules.
- People being late: I get being 5-10 minutes late. I’m always 5-10 minutes late. But 2 hours? Next!
- Really loud music: I know, totally counter-intuitive for a musician. But jesus, I already have tinnitus. Let’s not add to it. And if my ears actually hurt… physically… you’re way beyond loud. Oh yeah, the tinnitus is driving me crazy. No wonder I’m officially totally mental now. Can I just blame all of my life’s problems on it? Maybe that’s why I can’t get this CBV thing.
- Impatient people: I’m not going to lie… hi pot, I’m kettle.
I totally just blanked out on the awesome ones I had. No, it wasn’t the geese in Waterloo. I think I already wrote a post about that. Blargh.
