#1007 | Peeve of the day. A maintenance man who tells me he going to turn up on the day and doesn't. Nor does he have the courtesy to call and let me know he can't - making a call takes, what, 10 seconds out of his time to let me know?
Plus the fact that I put other matters aside so I could be available to let him in.
Spittin' chips here!...

#1015 | They're doing a bit on the radio about what women hate to be called... like baby, mamasita, miss booty  ..... I really hate it when people refer to me as a "girl." Or when men refer to a group of grown women as "girls." You don't call grown men "boys." So why would you call a bunch of women "girls?"  American Idol is a horrible offender.... They refer to the men as "the guys," but they refer to the women as, "the girls." Pffffffffft.... "Ladies" works just fine, y'know!
