irked

a day of being irked.
i blame the hot sticky weather, as it can't be anything to do with me being a miserable son of a gun.

irked at the weather - well that goes without saying. i hate the hot weather.
irked at my boss - who often forgets that we are short staffed and have more work than we can really cope with, but hey can still find time to get a dig in based on a comment from someone who hates doing filing but is happy to blame others for it not being done.
irked by the 25 bus - they seem to have gotten rid of the bendy buses and replaced them with double deckers, only problem is i keep forgetting this and just see the double decker coming and think it is a 205.
irked by bookshops - looking for a number of titles, tried a number of bookshops. no luck. what irked me was that some shops just don't put prices on books. why? how hard can it be to sticker the sodding book so the punter knows what price the darned thing might be. it isn't like supermarkets where there are going to drop the price of beans in response to a competitor. so waterstones if you are wondering why so many of your art books don't move it is because no one knows how much they are going to have to pay.
irked by 15 bus - there is no need to have the heater on in this weather. no seriously. no need at all.
