She LOVES to iron!! HEEHEE!! She'll pop in while I am sleeping and iron up a pile of stuff while watching shows on my big TV. I work nights. As long as I have diet Coke in the fridge and a Rowenta iron I have it made!! It drives her nuts knowing i have a big stack of stuff to be ironed. I did try to get her to stop but she won't.

And she could not be torn away from that ironing board (or is it bored) during this critical process.<br /><br />Near the top of my list would certainly be this: waiting on hold for some tech support person after having plowed through four or five recorded menus, hoping I don't get cut off. Of course, while I'm waiting, a recording comes on every 15 seconds saying, "Your call is important to us." Right. But apparently not important enough so as to compel them to actually answer the phone!Mike Dennishttp://mikedennisnoir.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-25534234569585062772009-10-13T10:52:36.459-07:002009-10-13T10:52:36.459-07:00@ Jazzy: I'm sure if there were a dishwasher ...@ Jazzy: I'm sure if there were a dishwasher equivalent to ironing, I'd still find <i>something</i> to complain about!<br /><br />@ Mikey: Poor you and all other guys. Shaving your head/face must be a drag. But then again, you don't have to put up with 40 years of periods.<br /><br />@ Danica: Mowing? Hell, no.

I just dread the thought of bending down to the bottom rack...ugh! My ultimate fave is the photocopier one where you mention mimeograph. Shit, who the hell remembers mimeograph but us? Do you remember when the teacher passed them out, the mimeographed tests, with their sketchy purply ink? The first thing we all did (in tandem, I might add), was to raise them like a golden chalice and SNIFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF that ink. Oh, how I miss those days.<br />Great post, girlie.

Heh.<br /><br />The one task that irritates me is shaving my sexy dome (along with my pretty face). I've been doing it five or more times a week for going on 20 years now, and believe me, if I could rub some sort of potion on my head and face to kill all whiskers and hair, I would, just so that I'd never have to shave again, nor pay usurious prices for razors.<br /><br />Most people want their hair to grow, and pay a fortune for their vanity. Me, I'd rather not have anything but eyebrows and goatee above the neck. It also pisses me off because I really *do* think about how much extra sleep I could get every day if I didn't have to shave before work.<br /><br />And while I think the toaster oven takes too long to brown up my English muffin, I have no problem leaving clothes in the dryer or even in the basket on top of the dryer for days on end.Hurricane Mikeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13216133452496563760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-90731402952877624592009-10-13T01:57:41.028-07:002009-10-13T01:57:41.028-07:00I detest ironing!

But I do iron a lot of stuff just because I like that ironed look and feel. Ugh, I wish there was the dishwasher equivalent to ironing - that'd be amazing!!<br /><br />xjcxCaz Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15283262095667148117noreply@blogger.com
