ABC's Instead

I was going to blog and list all the really crappy things that have happened in my life in the last week. Nobody wants to think about it- least of all me, so I decided to write a poem instead. I have been thinking of writing this particular poem for a while, but didn't until now.

The ABC's of What I Hate.... by Cheryl Citizen

A- Analog- I think it is a made up thing, but men LOVE to sing its praises.
B- Brussel Sprouts.
C- Cleaning Anything, Cockroaches
D- Dieting
E- Exercise, Emergency Rooms
F- Fords
G- Gross old food in the fridge
H- Health Insurance
I- Insurance- all kinds.
J- Junk I've purchased thinking it was going to last.
K- Killing Time-wasting my most precious resource at places like the DMV.
L- Losing Touch with Old Friends
M- Moving
N- No comments on people's blogs. It is selfish, but I wish everybody accepted comments.
O- Ordering at restaurants- it's stressful.
P- Pet Rocks- they are taking over. Pop up ads.
Q- Quitting things.
R- Risks
S- Socks
T- Telemarketing calls
U- Unfinished tasks- I have plenty.
V- Video tapes- I'm spoiled now with DVD. Rewinding is stupid.
W- Warranties, War
X- Trying to think of words that start with X. This letter is unnecessary in the English language.
(KS could easily replace it in most situations and Z in the others)
Y- Yo-yos- not fun.
Z- Zoos- especially the "Petting" kind.

If you order now you get an additional poem at absolutely no charge.
