Fun Monday - Sign Up Here!

THIS SHOULD BE A STICKY POST. I HOPE. SCROLL DOWN FOR NEWER POSTS. Within the past few days, Blogger made it possible to schedule posts to be published at a later date and so when I tried earlier to post-date this to make it a sticky post it made it a scheduled post and wouldn't publish it. Megan told me to try it again and it seems to be working. Tomorrow? Who knows what Blogger might do with it. Thanks Megan!

This is my first attempt at hosting Fun Monday next Monday, May 12. And I'm sorry it has taken me this long to post the challenge but I've been doing fun things like: spending hours searching for files that people had in their office and now they are in MOSCOW on vacation (the people are in Moscow, not the files - the files have disappeared completely so they may be in Helsinki on vacation for all I know), dealing with family drama, sitting in extra-super crappy Atlanta traffic so that it has taken me an hour to drive 5 miles home the past two nights (and let the world give thanks I'm not a drinker after that), and trying really hard not to strangle my upstairs neighbors. It's been a stellar couple of days (stellar because I haven't actually strangled them yet).

Since I just started participating in Fun Monday in November, I went back and reviewed Robin's incredibly helpful list of all of the past themes and pretty much the first five things I thought of had already been done before I started. So I kept having to go back to the drawing board (not really because I cannot draw well at all) and that is also a reason it took me so long to come up with something. So if all of those other people had not thought of my ideas first and I wasn't chasing files all over the place at work which took up all of my thinking and Fun Monday theme pondering time, you'd have a much better challenge. Some of you are thinking I should have pondered it while sitting in traffic but I was busy pondering curse words instead. So this is what I came up with and we shall all blame it on my stress level at the moment:

I know we all try to be sweet and kind to people the majority of the time. But let's face it....we also know that sometimes we can be a big jerk. It could be that you experience road rage from time to time. Perhaps you empty the coffee pot at work some mornings and don't feel like taking the time to start a new pot for the next person. Or maybe you don't return phone calls on a timely basis when you know someone needs a response from you. Have you ever "accidentally" ruined a favorite shirt of your spouse just because you didn't care for it? Come on - it's confession time! List the small things you do that make you a jerk and elaborate just a bit on each one. Please tell me I'm not the only jerk around here!

Let me know if any of your links aren't correct in the side bar and I'll fix them.

Mariposa has volunteered to host for next week. Thanks Mariposa!
