What do you assign to Mordor?

The problem with poison is they eat it, die and then rot somewhere, which causes a right pong! At least if a cat gets a mouse it kills it in one fell swoop, well mine did anyway...and then batted it around wondering why it didn't want to play.

Mind you I felt quite sorry for the poor little thing when it was dead. I suppose the same fear for me would be induced by beetles and cockroaches - eyuw!

A great biking experience gone awry.

One of the first days above 50 (F) in Michigan, so I get out the bike and go for a nice ride. First major intersection I want to go through (think American traffic directions now), one car wants to turn left onto the street I'm coming out of (still moving mind you) so I decided to turn left myself since she has to wait for oncoming traffic; but there's a car coming from the opposite direction that wants to turn RIGHT onto my street, so I brake and put my foot down, the momentum and braking combination of which, upon impact, throws my left hip out of wherever it's supposed to be at all times. "Ooooghh.... yowtch". Well, I'm not going to let that stop me. I continue for a 3 mile bike ride to the nearest branch of our financial institution, and get a rear flat tire there. Well, at least I'm here at the credit union so I walk my bike to the ATM and get ready to deposit the check .... which my wife has forgotten to sign. Ahem. Well. This is been a completely worthless endeavor. Yay. So I walk my bike back three miles to home, again giving serious consideration to the benefits of the hated mobile phone. And have my wife sign the check. She is not in the least sympathetic, having worked a full 8 hours and not in the mood to apologize. The nerve.

Hip's still giving me problems. Grrrr.

Humane mousetraps are actually nothing of the sort. Unless you check all of them, every few hours, the poor little things die in there of hunger and thirst which is far worse than the short sharp shock of the conventional mousetrap.
I remember my father-in-law, a tender-hearted life-long vegetarian, so mortified to find the tortured emiacted corpses of meeces in the "humane" traps he had overlooked.

Ours is by the Litter tray though, and that's not the kind of thing you tend to leave unchecked for very long, so any wee mices are safe in my humane trap.

I send to Mordor the evil that is setting the clocks forwards in Spring. I lose an hour! This is unfair!

[littlemanpoet]

Hear hear! to sending daylight savings time forward leaps to Mordor. They are an insidious evil and should be scrapped. People used to get up with the sun and go to bed with its setting. That's the natural way. It's the way things are in the Shire. I'm sure of it.

Acid reflux. Acid reflux should definitely be sent to Mordor. And ear hair.
Oh, wait... and high cholesterol!

Hmmm... maybe you're all learning a wee bit too much about me...

Assignment thirded! It's a nuisance and I have serious doubts about energy savings since the hour of darkness is just shifted to the morning. I find it more depressing to wake up the extra hour before sunrise.

On that note, I'll assign waking up before dawn...and then falling asleep shortly after making it home at sunset.

Awkward moments that arise when your room mate has a boyfriend and they didn't expect you back so soon.

I assign my inability to learn that I should not roar, scream or in fact try to sing or perform stressful voices when I am trying to recover from a sore throat.
