I personally think we developed language because of our deep need to complain.*

Day 16 Someone or something you definitely could live without.

Off the top of my head, just today? Here's a partial list:

Hives; the (holy crap why is it on so often when they have nothing new to say) news; days without naps; days of truth topics that sound like days of truth topics I've already written about. Children & grandchildren who don't call their grand/mother (especially if they know she's worrying about them); drama; George W Bush (I don't care if you 'wrote' a book - I am not going to read it because I do not want to cry, so shut up and go away); strep throat. The ideas of political compromise and lame duck congress; hives; earworms; 24 hour days (what's up with that? 24 is not a good number. It is not a number I can get things accomplished in.); medication side effects; cigarettes; that guy on the "news" who is paid to give his (ridiculously uninformed) opinion; anybody who's going to see HP7 before I get to, even though I already know the end of it. Nights with no sleep; stairs; asphalt sidewalks (or brick sidewalks, alternatively); roots; hives.

That should count us for the day, yes? Because I am sure if I really put some thought into it, I could get a good steam going.
