My Favorite Day Of The Week #3

Posted on July 2, 2010 Written by Tonya

Ah, Friday, my favorite day of the week and my favorite activity… flipping stuff off!

And so, without further adieu:

#1 Why is it that in the dead of the night when all is quiet and I should be resting my weary eyes and body, my mind is racing and I can’t relax, let alone sleep? It’s completely stupid! Flip off brain, know when to say when!!

#2 LAUNDRY get s a big ole “F*** You!” Why is it so incessant? Enough said.

#3 I have special Flip Off to my tiny bladder… seriously, you are driving me crazy! I don’t have the time to spend in the bathroom that you require. What gives? Are you shrinking with age or something, because I used to pride myself in being able to hold it for a lot longer than I can nowadays. Of course, I did have a serious bout of bladder infections there for a while, but that’s besides the point, so Flip Off!

#4 I am so NOT a cat person and there are four (I think) that live in our neighborhood and they enjoy using our patio furniture to lounge on and that would be fine (not really), but they leave tons of fur behind and as someone that is allergic to felines, all I can say is Flip Off, go find another comfy $500 couch to destroy.

#5 I’d like to Flip Off people that think their cars are so much bigger than they are and either take up more than one parking space and/or take forever to get out of one. If you can’t handle the gas guzzling SUV you’re driving, get a Prius!

I always feel a lot better after these weekly purges, thanks Gigi at Kludgy Mom.

Happy Fourth of July weekend, everyone!

The best is yet to be.

    Love Friday flip off!
    Have you had an ultra sound since all your bladder infections? I have a very similar problem. Ultrasound didn't help me but it might you.

    Great flips. I could seriously flip laundry like every single day. And hate it when people take up 2 parking spots. Hope this helps start your weekend on the right foot.

    Death to outdoor cats! We have that problem, too. They poop in our yard and apparently it's like a treat for dogs! YUCK!

    Oh, the people with giant cars that take up several spaces. i want to leave them dear a-hole notes on their windshield but I'm always afraid I'll get caught and then get shot or something!

    Flip off to those cats! They're so stinky and slink all over the place. I left our back door open last Saturday and went upstairs to take a nap… came down and there was a cat SITTING INSIDE ON THE COUCH. wtf?

    Have a great weekend!!

    Cats can be a huge pain especially when they aren't yours. They like to crap in our driveway! Thanks for that! Have a great weekend!

    Sometimes when I see those double-spacer park jobs, I want to do the same right NEXT to them, just to prove a point! With my luck, I'd get my car keyed…

    Laundry would always be at the top of my flip list, not only on Fridays but every day!

    LOL!!! I love your flip offs. I especially feel you on the parking space, the laundry and the brain that won't go to sleep.

    Great flips! I feel you on the sleeping part. I get that way too even when I thought I was dead tired then just tossing and turning. Crappy! Hope you'll have a great 4th July weekend!

    I agree about that laundry that never ends! Ugh!I am sitting next to two lads that need to be folded and about three loads that need to be done! Have a great 4th of July!

    I also hate cats and laundry! Ugh! I just might have to start doing this "Flip Off Fridays"… seems pretty theraputic.
