...Or not...
I have a few pet peeves. Okay, so everyone does. Well, I don't know if it's the hormones of pregnancy or what, but it seems like things are really irking me here lately.
Like at work, for instance. It's little things, like when the scrubs aren't folded neatly and stacked. Or the microwave door is left open. Or the doctors don't clean up after themselves. I mean, how hard is it to put a paper towel in the trash can that's a foot away? The same goes for home. Mike will leave a piece of trash out or not rinse the sink down after shaving or brushing his teeth. It annoys me so much! Oh, and also when people chew loudly. That just grates on me so bad!
Well, now that I'm pregnant, I will announce up and front: Please, please, PLEASE no one call me prego, preggers, or anything other than pregnant ("With child" is okay!). I have always hated those terms. I don't know why. I know some people think they are cute, but I think they are--I don't know--degrading? That's not exactly the word I'm thinking of, but I just really do not like those words.
That may sound weird that something so small gets on my nerves so bad, but there are people that have even stranger peeves. Any others?

Oh lordy, sounds like you're having a bad day! I promise not to call you preggers!
I definitely have a few pet peeves (big and small). Small one example: Jeff leaves the top off of the toothpaste tube. KILLS ME
Big one: People who refuse to think for themselves. They run to ask me a question before even taking time to think about it.
I thought of one more, bad baby names! Some friends recently named their children the WORST names possible (I'm sure you see if on FB all the time). But get some of these:
-Alabama Tiffany Rose
-Elexandra Kaylie
-Camdyn Malachai (ok, I admit, this is my best friend's newest addition....but I hate it)
Yeah, my brother Jimmy hates the state names. Montana, Dakota, etc. I hate it when people take a simple name and completely change up the letters to make it "unique." All it's going to do is get the kid screwed up on how to remember to spell the name! For example: Jaymes instead of James. Hayleigh instead of Hailey or Haley. And on and on...
