jaffackes... someone has eaten the whole box... my (not so secret) supply.. how can they do this to me?

Scissors... who on earth came up with the idea of binding the handles together with a plastic tag that needs a pair of scissors to cut them open? I mean, I've just bought a pair of the things which could well mean I don't have a pair in the first place. I managed to cut it with a knife in the end... but who thought of this I know its for safety but I'm still irritated

My vein collapsed as the midwife was taking my blood and I cried because I feel friggin' useless!

Stolen Jaffa Cakes would definitely do it, too.

My cat ran out into the back garden once again when I was letting my dogs back in the house. He and his feline bro are indoor cats only. I hadn't the chance to put socks on and was barefoot.

Trying to tear the film off a food packet. ALWAYS shreds in ribbons. Or comes off with such velocity you fling the contents across the kitchen.

Today was a double whammy.

I went to work only to find out I wasn't supposed to be at work so I've denied myself a lie in and the lie in I was looking forward to tomorrow now won't happen because I AM at work tomorrow. I have annoyed myself!

Not today, but recently I was really irritated to discover that packs of Jaffa cakes now have 10, not 12. I bet they didn’t reduce the price by 18% as well. CFS.

My charging cable went walking around the house again. I needed to make a phone call and my battery was only at 5% and I only have 1 cable and I couldn't find it and I was beginning to get very upset. I checked where it usually is about 5 times and it wasn't there, I don't know why I keep checking places I have already checked.

Found it eventually. Daughter had moved it because she thought it was hers and it wasn't... She put it in the 'Junk' drawer...
