So I was looking at my blog today, contemplating changing things up a little... reformat or something... anyway, I noticed that I had 14 posts for February. No big deal, right? Except that when you look at it, it says February (14)... which is Valentines Day, which is one of my pet peeves...
Hence this post!
I have a lot of pet peeves. Now don't hate; I'll bet you a three layer German chocolate cake that you do too! I think though that they are fun to isolate. (yeah, I know, I am one of those weird people that likes to be all introspective and such...) Anywhoooo....
#1. (and there is a reason that this is #1.) People following the letter of the law and not the spirit of the law. Especially in relation to scriptural principles... (I know, I sound like a weird radical liberal now... tsk, tsk: rebel!)
#2. Things that aren't even. This includes the curtains in my room (its a personal experiment to see how long I can stand their unevenness before I finally reach that breaking point and fix it!), how many crackers I take out of a package (seriously, I count them, and I never eat an odd number unless its just one), the number and color of things (yes, I do wear clothes out of my closet based on how many of one color are in there; and I always eat the popsicle color that has the most in the box, and I will pick out strategic m&m colors to maintain consistent numbers of each color), etc...
#3. Dirty socks. Nuff said? Surely I don't have to explain this... come on guys! I like to live in an alternate dimension in which dirty socks do not exist. I will go out of my way to not actually touch mine... let alone other people's... its just icky! (including picking up bundles of laundry and using the other clothes to pick up the socks) I also won't take socks off my residents without gloves, and even then, think extra handwashing AND alcohol disinfectant! (I know, how juvenile Jo!)
#4. People that hurt people that I love. I'll take a lot myself and usually forgive you, but the moment you start messing with someone I love... whoa, buddy! You better be ready to handle some righteous indignation! Familiar with the look of death??
#5. Sleeping without a blanket. Must be something I picked up when I was little, but I can't stand it if I don't have at least a sheet over me when I am sleeping, even if I am sleeping on the couch during a movie!
This is by no means an exhaustive list, I am sure that I will add more when I think of them, but that's enough for today!

Did you not hear? We've got the Gospel! We don't have to follow the law! That's the point! Do you frickin get me?!
