This is hubster. He sifts through his mail and sorts it all out into neat piles and leaves it there. I come along and scoop it all into one pile much to his displeasure. He can't see why I don't want paper scattered all over the various surfaces so I tell him it's because I find it difficult to dust around it and there's a LOT of dust in Oman.

Another peeve is hawking i.e. making gathering noises in the back of the throat and spitting out phlegm or other gunge from one's tubes. Hubster has a thing about hawking and does it automatically and very noisily every time he approaches the toilet. In the hotter weather he does it a lot of the time because I guess the air is drier and there's more dust around. I was worried because he was doing it so much that it had become a habit with him rather than a necessity but, during the winter, I noticed he didn't do it so much so I presume he feels he really does need to clear out. Let's hope it's just a Middle East thing and he won't do it so much when we leave.

Well Dawn, fattie butts in low cut jeans are worst, but I dislike looking at anyone's butt cracks peeking out, male or female. I figure if one wants to show it off, they can just run around without any jeans on.

I'm with Taffy on the slow-fast-slow driver. Around here, summer's the worst, because we get the monster RVs coming through. The duffers poke along on the narrow windies, then speed up when a passing lane opens up.

And pretty much a blanket "amen" to the other peevie pets.

Speaking of pets, it drives me nuts to have the cats (mine & neighbors) use my veggie garden for a litter box. One cat even crawls under the wire covers I set over the seedlings . I even provided a proper box in the garage, which is usually open, and I don't mind as much if they relieve themselves in the other garden beds. But the veggies seem to have magnetic qualities. *sigh*
