roses are red
Mar. 8th, 2011 07:00 pm
One of my coworkers got roses today, so of course I had to take some pictures. I miss roses... I miss flowers. I get so impatient for spring, especially as it grows closer, yet still seems so far away.
At least today was a pleasant one, with sunshine and warmer temperatures. The piles of snow get smaller each day. I can see grass in some places, and some of it is even green.
A customer today had her little girl with her, and she was adorable. I told her my name was Elizabeth, like the queen; hers was Diana, so I said she beat me, because Diana was a goddess. And Wonder Woman. *g*

what did I just say?
Sep. 15th, 2008 03:41 pmI don't understand why, after I say that my name is Elizabeth, so many people immediately start calling me Liz. Did I just tell you that my name is Liz? No, I did not. What makes you think it's OK to call me Liz? Is 'Elizabeth' too hard to say? Do you think that you are endearing yourself to me? Would you call the Queen 'Liz'? I think not.
Same thing with my nickname, LizzieBelle. Not Lizzie. I have one friend who calls me L.B., which is better than Lizzie, I suppose. He is trying to be cute. The reason I don't like 'Lizzie' is that I used to work with someone by that name, and we did not get along, to put it lightly.
So anyway, that's my pet peeve of the day. Can you guess why? *g*
What annoys you in this way? Gum chewing? Talking on a cell phone in a movie theatre? People who drone on and on about their pet peeves? ;)
