It’s that time again. Thanksgiving is just around the corner and every year, people list what they are thankful for. That’s all good and dandy, but frankly, it’s the same ole boring stuff. This year, I’ll do it differently. I’m going to list all the stuff that pisses me off and hopefully, my bitching and whining will trigger some great, practical gifts that I will certainly be thankful to receive.
1. Clothes that slip off the hangers
Don’t you hate it when browsing through your closet, clothes slip from their hangers and fall to the ground and you take a minute or two of silence to mourn the loss of perfectly hung clothing, then clench your fist and wave it in the air shouting, “Why do bad stuff happen to good people?”?
2. Toilet paper that doesn’t roll out smoothly
Have you ever tried unrolling the toilet paper and instead of rolling the whole sheet out smoothly, you get hold of a small strip and you keep on rolling that small strip in hopes it all unwinds smoothly, but you end up having a roll of toilet paper that looks like it’s been attacked by a very unhappy cat?
3. Being cold
I hate being cold and my house is cold, cold, cold. Putting on the heater doesn’t do much good as all the heat gets trapped near the ceiling, and unless I walk around in stilts, there is no relief in sight on these cold winter days. But I do see a solution to this problem. Snuggie! I keep seeing those stupid Snuggie commercials and as much as I like to make fun of the people in the commercials who are constantly raising the roof for no apparent reason, that cult-like-clothing doesn’t seem like such a bad idea.
