All of my rage has finally caught up to me and the other day I was caught breaking the law. It’s true, I’m a lean, mean, law-breaking machine. I scoffed in the face of the law, and it scoffed back, with a $104 fine and a “Have a nice day, ma’am,”. Yeah Chips, you [...]

Seriously, you are not that important. I hate people (especially soccer moms) who are driving around with a phone stuck to their ear as if it has just been surgically attached. Sometimes I see people driving in a particular helmet special way and I half expect them to look at me with in a panic [...]

I had planned this one for later, but after this past week or so I find it totally appropriate. I hate cold and snow. Cold serves no purpose. Some people say cold serves it’s purpose to kill off all the plants so we can have a break from allergies for a while. I disagree, because [...]

I’m going to spend the next 25 days trying to blog consistently, for your reading pleasure. The topic: 25 things I Cannot Stand. These will be in no particular order, because I don’t discriminate and when I hate, I hate equally. You could say “That Nikki, she’s an equal opportunity hater”. Oh, you’re gonna [...]

So Aaron and I just got back from another trip to Texas and I was reminded once again why I should become a hermit. When boarding the plane, typically they board by zones, right? Well, if they are boarding zones 1 and 2 and you are in any other zone, SIT THE HECK DOWN! There’s [...]

It was all over the news last week that waiters and waitresses not only expect a tip, but they want a 20% automatic gratuity added to checks. Jigga huh? Let’s discuss this further shall we?
I am notorious for not tipping well. My bestest friend has thus dubbed me “tip nazi”. I believe the conversation at [...]

Let me preface this posting with this, there are VERY few things in this world that turn me into an anal-retentive psychopath. Type-A personality is not something I’m known for having. To be quite honest, I’m pretty laid back and I don’t take a lot of things seriously. All that being said, I freely admit [...]

I’ve decided to start an actual series of blogs. If you can have a book series, you can have a blog series. I said it, therefore it is so. The title of this series will come as no surprise to some of you: Things That Make Me RAGE. This series will be on-going at my [...]

This is why high school kids get a bad reputation as workers. So I was on my way to get a newspaper (mini-Martha needs coupons you!) and Aaron politely requested a deep freeze from UDF (United Dairy Farmers for the less Cincy savvy).
UDF has 2 sizes for Deep Freeze’s: small (12 oz.) and regular (16 [...]
