Things that annoy me:
I don't care how long it takes me to type a proper text or a proper email but for the love of God people PLEASE stop using ridiculous short forms. I cringe every time I see U, R, gr8 or ur in one of these forms of communication. Guess what....I only have 140 characters to type per text as well and I still manage to type you, are, great, your or you're in there.
I've been single for ages but I can guarantee when I do get a partner that I won't ignore the friends I used to be close with. I know a few people like that they're all consumed by their relationships and spend every waking breathing hour with their boyfriend/girlfriend. It kind of makes me laugh when things fizzle because my phone starts ringing again.......only I don't care to go out of my way to hang out with my newly single friend.
This next one sort of goes hand in hand with the above pet peeve. I also don't understand when I invite my friend somewhere that they think it's an automatic invite for their significant other as well. It's like nooooo I asked you to the movie or for a drink or whatever. It would be different if there was a group of people going, but sometimes you just want Q time with a certain person. I had a friend that was soooo stuck to her boyfriend that she invited him to our friends birthday luncheon.......that was specifically for the girls! The birthday girls husband was not even there.....but our friends boyfriend was!
It really gets under my skin when I answer the phone "hello" and no one answers back. If you're lucky I may say hello one more time before hanging up but it's not very likely. I figure if it's important the person will call back and actually put some words together so I can hear them.

Anyway I'm heading up north tomorrow for the long weekend and am hoping that the highway is not jammed......cross your fingers!!! Enjoy whatever it is you are doing for this last bit of summer as it's already getting chilly down here brrrrr!!!!

U R 2 QT!
Amen to ALL THOSE! By the way, what is yt? I've been getting that and I have no idea what it stands for?
I mean TY. haha See, I don't even know.
TY means 'thank you'...I think. I could mean 'tall yaks', but I've been wrong before.
I've noticed a considerable abscence of apostrophes with texting and emailing. No one considers them necessary anymore.
Have fun up north, sweetie!
Cxx
Oh my gosh, I sooooooooo agree with you about how annoying it is how people become absolutely consumed by their relationships! It's crazy! Ugh.
Yah, and the inviting their SO along too.
You know what drives me nuts? Married people who share an email address. Have you encountered that? Lame!
WIGSF, ugh! See I don't know what QT is...
Jlee, Wiwille beat me to it!
Wiwille, yeah what the hell happened to the rules???
Claire, thanks i'll try!
Christielli, UGH YES!!! It's like they're one person now....brutal!
I think it's "tasty yams" It fits ;)
I hate those abbreviations too. As for the significant other invite, yeah that is lame and I sometimes go out of my way to disinvite them. Ha. Be specific Miss Ash & you'll be happier with the results. Enjoy the long weekend as it's still 98 degrees in Austin & I've got friends coming to town.
Amen! Add to that the fact when I've asked some girlfriends if they want to go out for a drink or whatever, I get...well maybe. Let me ask Parker (ficticious boyfriend) if it's ok. Sigh. I understand making sure you don't already have couple plans for that day...but asking permission?
Are you and wigsf an item? If so you need to declare that on your blog.
;)
2DP, see I would think the friend would be put off if you disinvited their significant other, that would open a whole new can of worms "oh so you don't like him/her....blah blah"
Lindsey, oh yeah I love that one too. Like make your own plans and tell Parker that you have plans that night!!
Yrautca, no why would you even say that? You must know what QT means....I'm thinking quiet??
