Things That Annoy Me While I’m PMSing

It seems like the week before my period, I’m just over it and I go back and forth between sobbing my eyes out and hating life and all it entails. Ding ding ding, step right up, world! You’re in for the experience of a lifetime when I’m PMSing and ready to punch everything ever. Here’s a short list of things that have annoyed me beyond belief in the past 48 hours:

• Not being in bed
• Band names with symbols/weird characters/anything other than letters in the alphabet in them
• Emails from anyone
• Twitter/Facebook as a whole
• Indecisiveness
• The way my clothes fit (or rather, don’t fit)
• Someone knocking on the door and waking up my dog when I only just got him to go to sleep
• The fact that I don’t have pizza
• Having a stupid headache that won’t go away
• My mascara smearing the second I put it on, making me feel completely inept
• Needing to do housework but not wanting to
• When websites don’t load correctly
• “News” stories about who Taylor Swift is/isn’t dating
• Not being rich
• Thinking about how stupid some of the laws in place in different countries of the world are
• Getting company newsletters/offers I never signed up for to begin with
• How Rihanna posts pictures of herself nearly naked on her Instagram, immediately followed by screencaps of Bible scripture
• People whose heads are too big/small for their bodies
• Being unable to find a matching pair of socks… like, WHERE ARE THEY?
• Going upstairs for something and accidentally coming back downstairs without it
• Overly helpful sales people
• Stock photography
• Being asked questions I’ve already answered/can be Googled
• Constantly feeling on the verge of tears
• Looking in the mirror
• Wanting to have sex but being too tired for it
• Pedestrians who stand in the middle of the sidewalk like I haven’t got places to go
• There being nothing I want to watch on primetime TV
• Glee
• My inability to pick anything up without immediately dropping it on the floor… repeatedly
• Food being stuck to a dish when I’ve forgotten to soak it right away
• Having to change the toilet paper roll on the holder when it’s run out
• Exclamation points
• The sound a can of Diet Coke makes when you open it
• Having something I say/do being misunderstood
• When people with carts full of items don’t let me in front of them at the market when I’ve got ONE thing to pay for
• Being a stereotype of the moody, PMS-ridden woman
• Everything

So there you have it. That all being said, I do on occasion catch myself getting in an absolute state over something completely trivial and laugh at how insane I’m being, but it still happens. Bring on the blood so I can return to some semblance of sanity.
