"hey I'll start a blog!" So I finally sit down tonight and create my URLl..yada, yada, yada... well now I sit here with nothing to say!  Really?  What's up with that?  I mean I knew I would never be a writer, but people are always saying to me "you should write a blog you say the funniest stuff".    So, since nothing else comes to mind I guess I'll just start off by introducing myself.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; I am a happy for the most part, but easily irritated!   I try not to be, but I think it's just me!   I have never been that bubbly person, I 'm not unhappy, just really easy going, adaptable, but people and things get under my skin!   I know it's irrational so I mostly keep it to myself!  So this is hopefully a therapeutic outlet! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You see I have a 6 year old boy.   For this venue we will just call him Punkalicious. (And yes I mean that in the most endearing of ways!)  And a 3 year old girl, we'll call her Princesca. And it seems that these minions have picked up on my most sarcastic traits!   This pains me greatly!   I see them developing the traits I have worked so hard to leave behind, but obviously failed miserably!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I know... some of you are saying, "why do you want to loose your sarcasm, it can be a virtue."   Yeah I know, but you see I am married-10 years now- to a wonderful but very rarely irritated man!   He makes me want to be a better person.   We are so different!   He is very happy go lucky (that brings up a good moniker for him-Happy Hubby).   He doesn't in the least understand unhappy people, moody teenagers, letting people irritate you, etc etc....   But you see having grown up with some of these in my family,  being one of these in my teenage years and most of all having been a paramedic and ER nurse for a number of years I don't get how he grew up so happy and un-bothered(Is that a word?)!     When I told him I was going to write a blog about people and things that irritate me he said  " if so many things irritate someone that you can write a blog about it then something is wrong!"  I shot him THE LOOK...and he said "the first thing your going to blog about is me isn't it?" Uh-YEAH!   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well I guess that enough for now.   I hope this gives me an outlet to vent my irritations and observations while entertaining you.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Thanks for reading!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(102, 0, 0); font-size: x-large; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman';"&gt;Irritated&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/575077572088597334-4459103668731493701?l=ramblingsmusingsandirritations.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingsmusingsandirritations.blogspot.com/feeds/4459103668731493701/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingsmusingsandirritations.blogspot.com/2009/04/writers-block-what-great-way-to-kick-it.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/575077572088597334/posts/default/4459103668731493701'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/575077572088597334/posts/default/4459103668731493701'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingsmusingsandirritations.blogspot.com/2009/04/writers-block-what-great-way-to-kick-it.html' title='Writer&apos;s Block... what a great way to kick it off!'/><author><name>Irritated</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14711190897389644171</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13299099820205540487'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
