Today's peeve;

When your favourite pastime is interrupted by others.
Oh geez I can sooooo relate to this.....I don't watch much TV either but when I do I hate it when someone interrupts it by either talking or calling on the phone. I used to be an avid fan of "Friends" when it was still on and all I asked was a little peace and quiet for a half hour once a week.....do you think I got it?

Now when there is something on I am dying to watch I turn both the home and cell phones off and dare anyone to speak until it's over.....sometimes you just have to be a butt about it.

I hate being interrupted when I am having so much needed "me" time. So I turn off the phones and lock the doors and settle in Good peeve Jezer.

Hope your dog is fine.
