Only got a few hours sleep and am like the walking dead today.

I always seem to save up my rants for batch posts like this one. Oh well. We were away for a few days in Donegal,
Rant 1: christ almighty the drivers there. Absolute nutters. Overtaking on bends, hills, with oncoming traffic, just no consideration at all! No such thing as speed limits apparently. And roads with no road markings apparently means you can just drive in the middle.
Rant 2: night 1 in the hotel we had a screaming baby next door. Night 2 we had a yippy dog. *sigh*
Rant 3: cucumber sorbet? WTF is wrong with you people? Bleh.
Rant 4: lady sitting across from me in the restaurant today ate her entire meal with her mouth open. I don't know how food didn't actually fall out of her mouth while she was chewing but it was revolting.
Rant 5: FIL organised this trip for his wife, asked us to go for the company and because they don't drive anymore. MIL called her poor husband an idiot in front of us for ordering something in the restaurant that she knew he wouldn't like. It was just a small annoyance but he was being so thoughtful for his wife and she just called him stupid. Kinda bummed me out a bit.

Despite the moaning we actually had a really nice time though. Lol.

My good friend's father died a few weeks ago and it was a sad occasion for everyone naturally enough. But his sister, who I nickname Vogue due to her incredible self-celebrity, has really gone overboard on FB with her mourning.

Has had multiple daily statuses, very often tagging her dad's account (a FB phenomenon I find weird) because of course she is more grief-stricken than the rest of the family, publically anyway.

Even over the last day, my aforementioned friend became a daddy, and she is hijacking that joy to apparently make it about her continued grief.

I know people mourn in different ways, but its definitely a bit too public.

Restaurants that play loud music, making conversation difficult as nobody can feckin hear anything.

Bought a number or tubes of Ben and Jerrys Cookie Dough recently as they were on offer and notice none of them have cookie Dough in them!

TA wrt not being able to sleep properly for the last few days

You're playing hardball, no question about it, but in fairness sports punditry is a funny old game - a real pressure cooker, and usually the boys do well and the viewers get the money's worth. It is what it is.

I hate you so much right now :mad:
