Melanie, no worries! It's all in good fun. But then again...I think Sponge Micheal Square Pants has been aiding and abetting again!

The Goodreads adverts are freaking me out again - I don't want to see 'mature dating' promo every time I look at the top of the page. some of the ladies make me uncomfortable - they have tattoos like sailors and they're not afraid to share them. Ewwwwww

I might create a login just to get in and then post that one their profile :) - "put a jumper on love!"

Has anyone else ever been sitting in a waiting room and had someone stare at you while you read a book? I have. Super annoying. The worst part is that it was a rather large room and no one else was in it but this person just had to sit directly across from me. Grrr.
Hmmm, I think that is is something that is more likely to occur to women than men...!
Haha! I guess so. He was super creepy and about twice my age. Ewww

It's all book ads, pretty much. The odd amazon spot, but that's about it.
Julie wrote: "Haha! I guess so. He was super creepy and about twice my age. Ewww"Probably trying to decide whether to use the book as a pickup line. When I was younger (about half my age, lol) I found reading a book or a crossword in a bar was always the quickest way to filter out if anyone was interested. If they were, they nearly inevitably used "what are you reading?" to strike up a convo.
Still didn't change the percentage of people in bars you wouldn't want to meet, though.
I don't get adverts and I'm really happy about that. And Julie... Double ewww!!!

Then there were like these two guys who were just staring at me... It was so creepy...
I wonder if they know that we know they are looking?
I think they are so totally oblivious to their own behavior, ' cause they are so fixated on ( gulp ) you?
Well that's a bit unnerving. They need to fixate on something or someone else unless they are drop dead gorgeous themselves, then they can stare all they want. hehehe :)
In THAT case they are just fixated on themselves! They never leave the mirror! I used to do makeup for male models a time ago and they would shove each other out of the way to find space in front of the mirror! GAWD awful!
Very scarey, 5 really hot men all high,last time they ate was 1999, trying to look healthy, and perfect, all insecure about their looks? And they worry about young girls?
My rant for today was a ruined movie, because a two year old cried and screamed throughout the entire film, and " Mom " refused to remove her from the theatre..... ARRGGHHHH!
Scary and hilarious at the same time. :)

What sort of idiot would take such a young child into the cinema anyway?
Crazy people who think, "Oh they'll love it!" The world is dominated by idiots I tell you.
What can I say.... Theses people seek me out, they find me no matter where I go.... It's all a plot to destroy my quiet time.
Stupid *bleeping* hackers. Grrrrr.Funny part though, one of the junk mails said I had won the British national lottery.
I have been to wal mart lol, I went to the washington area about 3 years ago now. Been to see the white house. Seen the biggest spiders in the world ever OMG they are way bigger than any I have seen in the UK. My friend had some steps leading down to their garden and this one spider attached itself to the railings, every night it was there in the same place lol I would have been more scared if it was gone, wondering where it had went to!
2,000 follows on Twitter and then I'm blocked until more people follow me. But how can I get followers if I can't follow back? How's that supposed to work?
I despise satellite internet service. Despise it! It's goes down at least once a month and then I have to impatiently wait for them to restore service. I'm not patient enough for that. Grr! Despise it!

How's that supposed to work?"Sherri, you're supposed to tweet things that people are interested enough in following that they don't care if you can follow them back. That's the theory, anyway. In practice, a lot of people use Twitter as a tit-for-tat follow-me-and-I'll-follow-you promotional tool, instead of a real social media communication tool. But that's not how it's supposed to work.

Grr! Despise..."I think it sounds like a conspiracy thing...they're probably transporting aliens or something near you once a month. Maybe they get day release for good behaviour? :)

Okay rant over, back to YouTube I go!
Emily it sounds like a Bieber conspire thing....or maybe it's the KGB? Either way, it is wrong on so many levels! I have problems with YouTube as well, I can't seem to get it to let me comment, but then again, not many people want my comments....lolololol ! ( muuuwaahhhahaha!!!)

It keeps raining, which is rubbish.Why doesn't it just rain above the reservoirs, then we wouldn't have droughts and stuff.
I have to admit I've become quite grateful for the very steep hill I live at the top of and usually curse at while walking up.
:O it's raining where I live, right now!!Ooo a free pass to rant. Interesting...
Well I have a lot which I am dying to say out...but they are personal BLURGH!
I wish I lived at the top of a hill. I would roll things down it, whenever I saw someone walking up it.Nidhi - run out nail varnish again? I HATE when that happens!

I'll trade you. I'll give you sunshine if you give me rain. It's been dry as a bone where I'm at. My plants have all shriveled up and are nearly dead. And it's supposed to be 104F today (40C I believe).

I feel quite mellow today, with nothing to rant about... Is there something wrong with me?
Melanie wrote: "I feel quite mellow today, with nothing to rant about... Is there something wrong with me?"Yes, you are obviously not watching enough TV, especially the political ads.
Melanie wrote: "I feel quite mellow today, with nothing to rant about... Is there something wrong with me?"A woman with nothing to moan about?
Are you a stoner?
