pet peeves.

1. Sweaty runners running into me.  I mean, she had the WHOLE REST OF THE fricken side-walk. And not even an apology. Good thing I travel like the germaphobic americana that i am because i totally doused my whole arm in Purell.

2. People who don't know me telling me what I'd like and not like.  It's one thing if it's family or a friend... but i just met this dude from class and we happen to take the same train back. so i had 30 minutes+ of his jibber jabber. maybe i spoke for 7 minutes total.  anyways, he was telling me i didn't want to live in the city. i should stay outside of it. why would you want to? less living space. no central heating. it's noisy...  yes, i'm aware i won't live with a backyard or even in a house in the city. i'm aware it's noisy. that means there's a lot happening... part of the reason i'd like to be there. and he was SERIOUSLY trying to persuade me with no central heating?? i held back defending myself with the "i'm a post-college grad right now. do you know how i've lived for the past 5 years!!?? it's a little place i like to call new brunswick..." jeez.  but he is british. so i'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt here...

3.choosing the wrong line at the supermarket. i've given up. it's inevitable that i will always be behind that person those people.

those are all my peeves that were petted today.


on the up side:
- i've finished one full week of catalan class and it's going JUST fabulous.
- ate a hot dog for din din.
- teaching english twice a week with much potential for more "clients"
- i'm in spain!
- God is good and faithful all the time.
