Things that are making me angry right now:
1. Abercrombie. Today I was told that I couldn't wear a sweatshirt I wore to work because it wasn't "Ruehl enough." I understand the rule about wearing things that resemble Ruehl clothing. I understand that maybe my sweatshirt didn't conform to that. It just brought to my attention how incredibly superficial the entire franchise is. Not that I didn't know it before, it just pissed me off today. It was like saying that I wasn't "good enough."
2. Drivers. For the past month or so I have been going 60mph on the freeway with the cruise control on to save gas. It's only 5mph under the speed limit, but apparently that's not good enough for some people. So they tail me, trying to get me to go faster, get pissed off, zoom past me, etc. I would go 55mph like I want to, but I think it might actually get dangerous at that point with people getting angry at me for going slower than the speed limit. Just for clarification, a "limit" is "a point or level beyond which something does not or may not extend or pass," according to the dictionary on my computer. Therefore, 65mph is the fastest you can go, not the slowest you can go. So people really have no need to be angry at me for going 60mph. Oh, and I don't know why people think that driving really close to the person going slow is going to make them go faster. It's dangerous and stupid and, in my case, doesn't make me go faster at all.
3. Political ads. It's only July and I'm tired of seeing them.
4. Not having a good job yet. Grrr.
