A true haiku also must mention a season.

Oh tracilicious

But I will say I really liked your 3-5-3 format. Nice subject matter.

My biggest pet peeve is if I or someone else is late for something.

For instance, I'd rather wait for the late show of a movie rather then walk in a minute into it. And the biggest display of disrespect anyone can show for me is showing up late with no excuse or apology if we agreed to meet. I don't care if you're 5 minutes late or so, or if you actually have an excuse. But if I'm not worth the effort to get there on time, then screw you.

My peeve seems to be a certain widow's needieness when it comes to my husband. 7 calls from wither her or her kids...I am also resenting the fact that he seems to get invitations to meals with them that I don't hear about until after the fact.

That might move a bit beyond a peeve, mousey.

Mousey Girl · 08-13-2006, 08:08 AM

I do believe that you are right.
