I am a nature girl. Always have been. Without sounding insensitive or flippant, I have often declared that I would make a good homeless person and as I look at what I just wrote, I realize that there is no way to make that statement and not sound insensitive and flippant. Don't get me wrong. I am very thankful for my humble abode (which I have worked hard for) and my warm bed every night, especially on a cold night, but give me any excuse on any given day, all seasons (begrudgingly less in winter), and I'd rather be outdoors. I don't understand people that would rather be indoors, and perhaps those same people don't understand me.

So what is it that annoys me? People that don't respect common ear space when they are outdoors. In my neighborhood, at the beach, anywhere. You might enjoy KIIS FM or your station of choice on Pandora, but why do I have to be forced to listen to it when all I want to do is be at one with nature sounds; the breeze, the birds and the buzz of the bees while I read and write or do anything else or nothing? With all the wireless buds out there, you mean to tell me you can't personalize your choice of entertainment by keeping it to yourself?

I have never been diagnosed, but I'm pretty sure I have some form of ADD, because as soon as I hear unsolicited music, I lose all focus. And although I prefer silence, I love music, but only when I choose to listen to it. Obviously, I can see this makes me sound like a control freak. Truthfully, I really don't understand why something this trivial bothers me so much! Yes, I do know there are much bigger problems in the world. And oddly if I hear power tools, dogs barking, children playing, none of that bothers me, it's only unsolicited music that makes me nuts. What's wrong with me??

I buy these foam ear plugs and when the need arises I wear them along with noise cancelling headphones on top of them feeling so silly in the utter silence thinking this just doesn't make any sense. Shouldn't the person choosing to listen to music be wearing the headphones?

And I have gone so far as to drop comments about my love of silence to the biggest offender of my aversion, the neighbor that lives behind me. Something tells he will play his radio prouder and louder if I push the issue, so I do not, would not nag him over this. I just remain grateful for the days he is not around. He's really not a bad person, and I am aware he has also worked hard for his humble abode and it's his yard, his airspace, and I just have to remember to put my big girl pants on and deal with it, when he presses play.

When people doubt/blame themselves irrationally. It's just makes me want to slap 'em. I cannot stand it when I hear someone start to blame themselves over something stupid. I have litterally said to someone: "If you don't stop fucking pitying yourself and fix the goddamned problem I'm either going to do it for you or I'll let you suffer."

It's very annoying but I'll only do it if it's irrational.

heres just a small list of things that annoy me.......if i offend you so be it but this is a list of things that annoy ME, and MY opinions

people that have an education and still say LIEBARRY instead of LIBRARY or MIRA instead of MIRROR. (or just tbh anytime someone pronounces something wrong because of ingorance.)
