Middle class problems

* It annoys me that I can't find a cinnamon-flavored toothpaste with baking soda and flouride.

* It annoys me that there won't be any Target stores in Canada until 2013.

* It annoys me that BMW has no immediate plans to introduce its 1 Series hatchback in North America.

* It annoys me that I must reenter my wireless network password into my laptop if I allow my laptop's battery to die. (Incidentally, it also annoys me that my laptop won't plug itself in. mad )

* It annoys me that my cat wakes me at dawn to feed him by repeatedly pawing me in the head.

...Anyone else have a litany of silly complaints as you lie in bed on Sunday afternoon? confused

my house has 2 bathrooms, yet I won't use one of them because the seat is made of a plastic that feels colder to my bum than the other one.

my car stereo is awesome but my car could be more awesome

I would like to go out to eat but there isn't a good enough japanese restaurant in my hood

I feel like i've been there and tried to no avail. (Really slow buffering, if I recall.) Maybe I'll check again.

What about music? I have a cassette player, that only plays in reverse mode, so every time I put one in (from when I was 15) I have to reverse it immediately or it makes a terrible noise.

About six months ago, my clothes dryer broke.

So we washed our clothes, then took them to the laundrymat to dry.

My mom finds out and orders me a new washer and dryer and has them delivered to my house...but the washers hookups dont match my hookups and I need a plumber to redo my setup.

So I have a washing machine sitting in the hallway that leads to the washing room in my house because I have no money to have my pipes redone.

About two weeks ago, my old washer broke.

So now, we're going to the laundrymat to wash, then coming home to dry...with a brand fucking new washing machine sitting in the hallway.

I hate being broke.

It annoys me that I have to take the car for an oil change every 3 months.

It annoys me to have to tip both ends of workers at the car wash (the vacuum dudes and the drying dudes).

It annoys me when my rewards coupons expire.

It annoys me that my "iron-free" shirts sometimes wrinkle.

It annoys me that the dry cleaner will only give you the cheaper prices if you pay up-front.

It annoys me that there isn't an "open-late" Starbucks near me.

I have been considering hiring a cleaning person for about a year now. And weird guilt stops me from doing it. I don't even have kids. And I live alone. It seems so utterly indulgent to hire someone to clean up after ME. redface

While I don’t ever remember going hungry as a child, I know my parents struggled from time to time and they did their best to keep that from me and my brother. I moved out on my own at 19 and struggled myself. I lived a summer on ramen noodles and PB&J sandwiches as it’s all I could afford to eat. So I know the value of a dollar and it floors me that I’d actually PAY someone to do something I can do for free.

Still, my place would be a lot nicer if someone else would do it.

lol pat

I'm so lazy when it comes to cleaning that I've thought about that as well. disbelief

Actually, the ex at one point (while she was a stay-at-home "homemaker") made a big fuss about wanting a cleaner to come in. I told her that if she wanted to go get a job to PAY for said cleaner, then fine. That was the end of THAT.
