How annoying can you get!

Following darling AlwaysHappyKya's admission of her pet peeves, here are mine (Other than the cake and the other list I already made, that is):

I have to straighten the bedcovers in the morning before I leave. I cannot stand to come back to an unmade bed.

My books have to be in mint condition at all times. You can guess I don't lend them.

I also have to buy books, long as I can afford to. I do not like to borrow books and give them back ... chances are that I will buy a book I have liked rather than borrow it again from the library. Same for DVDs.

The bedroom door must stay closed when I am sleeping, even if the main doors ar securely locked and people within are known to me. (same pinch AHK and Silvara :D)

It's also an absolute must for me to cover up with a sheet/duvet when sleeping ... it makes me feel secure, never mind if i kick it off later in my sleep.

Jeans. I iron them. I know you can wear them without doing that/ are supposed to leave them unironed, but I cannot. I have this deep-seated conviction that thy fit better if ironed :P

I can never not wear earrings.

Can't eat pasta if there's no parmesan cheese.

I do not eat beans. Ever.

When I wake up, I do not talk until I reach work. I do not like being talked to soon as I wake up. Or being woken up by the sound of voices. It helps majorly that I live on my own at the moment ... and that friends who stay over are either understanding of this habit or are simply early risers :P I know for a fact that I cannot be heard if I talk soon as I am up and it bugs the hell out of me to have to increase my volume to be heard. Grrrrr

Okay maybe that is enough for now.

  2. Hey, Thanks for taking this up dearie!

    Ditto-ditto-ditto on the bedcovers, ironing jeans and cover up sheets points :D

    The last one made me think - Oh, wow! What if she gets married and he turns out to be a early morning conversation person ?

    Just a thought ;)

  3. Heehee....not so crazy now are we?!! :D

    Yeah, Evs and I pretty much communicate in different forms of grunts in the morning until we say goodbye. Don't talk to me until I have my coffee :P

  4. Seriously, you are probably lucky you are not my friend. I would call you every morning. And I do get up at 5.30am :D

    Then again, the time zones would make it early afternoon for you (and impractical for me to call you early morning), so I guess you are safe.

  7. same pinch!! :P
    Especially about books, covering up while sleeping and of course the closed doors too..

    I need to wake up to smiling voices, shouting angry voices will piss me off the entire day...
    Jeans - sometimes, I iron, most times - no. :P
    Same with the earrings, not too particular abt pasta... but, I do like beans :P

  8. I hate borrowing books and coming back home to an unmade bed.

    I also need to close the bedroom door and bolt it too before I go to sleep.

    I take a duvet even in the worst summers.

    I also iron my jeans all the time.

    I also cannot move out of the house with something to adorn my ears.

    Please ask your mother if you had a twin, I'll ask mine :)

  10. I forgot to add, I also hate waking up to the sound of voices. If that happens, I curse, I abuse, I grumble and curse some more.

  11. Why don't you eat Beans? :)))))

    There was a time when I hated anyone waking me up. Aah! now obviously times have changed.

  14. Ersa: :) I don't necessarily make the bed soon as I am up (and how my dad gets worked up over that!) but it has to be done before I head out...

    AlwaysHappyKya: You started me off, so thanks! :) We could be like long-lost cosmic sisters or something going by the similarities! My morning habits are another of the adjustments that mother keeps talking of having to make post-marriage... dunno, maybe my husband will be a grouch himself... or maybe he'll learn to not bug me... or maybe I won't remain a grouchy-waker! Marriage promises to be interesting at any rate!

    Silvara: Havens, I guess not! Kya zamaaana aa gaya, pagal kehlane ke liye bhi kitne kasht uthane padte hain! :D SO not morning people, are we? :D

    Amey: You sound like you'd be the perfect alarm clock, by the sound of it (HAHA! Oh lord, I do crack myself up! :P)

    Keshi: Really?! The earrings bit! :D Woohoo!

    USP: I know... golly!

    Pixie: Hehe, yes same pinch!

    D: Man that's a lot in common we have! I detest waking to voices...grrrrr! My mum says she was given someone else's baby... what does yours say? :D

    Solilo: Hehe, the things one does not do for love one does for children... that sort of thing eh? :) I don't eat beans because that was (is) a staple veggie at our place and I do not like the way it's made... ate enough to last me a lifetime and then gave it up. Do I love being an adult or what! :D :P

    Someone: Oh I dunno, maybe you're one of those dudes who can carry off ear-studs... ;)

    Phatichar: hello you! Welcome :) And thank you... I can take credit only for the content though :)

  19. Someone: I hate to break this to you but I'm afraid it doesn;t work like that :P

    Catty: No? That's more your thing... don't think I haven't noticed how there is a post up just after I retire for the day. Hmpfh :P And what you'll disagree... ek do baar kiya theek hai, kisne kaha ki mujhe karna accha laga? Huh? :D I laaauuuvvveeee you muah! You have ONE pet peeve Catty: people. :D

    Purnima: And this post proves that I am not unique... there are at least four other people who have the same pet peeves that I do :D Welcome to the club!

  22. Vaudevillian: Welcome back! I like your display photu :) And I will admit to occasioally checking the blog on phone first before doing anything else :D Been reading and taking notes for the novel, but all he seems to be doing now is mooning and having affairs... going slow you can tell.

    Amey: Imagine this: "I have to wake up at 3:00 a.m yaar"

    "why?"

    "Arre I have to call this friend and irritate her"

    :P

    You must admit the idea does sound a bit silly :D
