... when you use the bathroom and no one told you that the water is turned off.

or living in a house full of men and no one puts the seat down......

There's a part of me that wants to suggest "majority rules" in this situation...but I don't think I will (perhaps due to self-preservation of another part of me. )

Best to remember that when offering it to other drivers, too.

what i offer to drivers who break the law and endanger others is a correction by concerned civilian in the absence of police.

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day

I am soooo tired!!.

my eyes hurt, Soo sleepy!!. so I go to bed, to close my eyes, & nothing
happens, to top that off, my hips & lower back hurts, too =( .

So, I took an advil to help with the pain, & hopefully my sleepiness, & tiredness will follow suit!!.

Gawd!!.

I hate being in that state of mind where I am soo tired but can't even sleep !!.

Does this happen to you?? if so what do you do about that??

Occationally that happens to me, on certain nights, I actually able to sleep ok, & other nights I can't!!. WTF!!.

I have a friend who is worse. she could never get a good nights sleep ever!!.

UGH!!.

It sounds like your friend has a sleep disorder. Has she been diagnosed in a sleep lab? I ask out of experience and recommend that anyone with ongoing sleep issues ask (or beg!) their docs to send them to a sleep specialist. I have a sleep disorder diagnosed after complaining to my doc for at least 8 years that I wish I could get just one night's worth of great sleep. Turned out I never got below stage 2 sleep and averaged 17 wake-ups an HOUR! The majority of those I wasn't aware of, of course, but it sure proved to me that I wasn't imagining a problem! It was real.

Be happy that your sleepless nights are only occasional. That happens to everyone for a variety of reasons.

Not sure, although she says not any sleep medication over the counter could help her at all .

Yes, I believe she does have a sleep disorder .

um... lost of words, but all I can say about that is , I'm sorry (that you can't get a good nights sleep).

Thanks so much for the relpy, though.

Glad to know that my friend & I are not alone in this.

No need to feel sorry! That's the beauty of going thru the sleep lab. It diagnoses the problem then the sleep doc treats the problem. The majority of sleep disorders are treatable. I hope your friend gets help...and that you got a good night's sleep last night, Serenity!

I learned something very important during my search for sleep. Stage 3 and 4 sleep are as vital to life as air and water. Deprivation of the last 2, however, will put one 6' under long before the first one!

Maybe we can find a way to sign up certain drivers for this.

My wife lives in a house full of men and my reasoning why it's a lids up house is simply this: When groggy the kids will piss (regardless if the lid is up or down). So if the lid's up there's a clean lid if you gotta go and don't have time to clean up a dirty lid.

Lids down ensures a dirty seat.

Okay now here's my pet peeve for the day. At WalMart the sinks have these automatic valves that apparently cannot sense the color grey. So if you're wearing grey clothing and put your hands under the spout, the water won't come out until you step to the side and wiggle a bit so the sensor can detect something other than your grey shirt.

Do you know how idiotic that looks?

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day

Oh craig don't get me started on public restrooms! I hate automatic toilets and their assumptions. I hate how the sinks never give enough water pressure to rinse the soap off your hands. Or the automatic air dryers that just blow the water droplets around. Argh!

Interestingly enough, my best friend is invisible to all things automatic, whether it be toilet, sink, towel, or door. They just ignore her completely. We think she's a vampire.

It pisses me off when I'm on a very slow website. I just finished doing the long part of the circuit city application, and the page has been loading for the past 5 minutes.
