It's that time.

The time for first world problems.


1.  Matt, bless his heart, went to the grocery store to pick up a few items.  I had asked for oatmeal, and he got me this:

He got it because "the can looked cool."  Do i look like the kinda girl that has time to make slow-cook oatmeal? I assure, you unless it comes in a packet that says "instant" i don't have the time or the patience to make it for breakfast.


Things i do have time to eat for breakfast?

This bowl of leftover homemade buttercream frosting.


FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


2.  Everyday this week when i have gone to the traffic website to see how bad my commute will be, i have opened it up, seen a 3 or 4 out of 10 (for the level of how bad traffic is) and done a little dance for joy.  Until i realized that i am looking at the traffic for Philadelphia.  WHY?  Why computer, do you think that i up and moved to Philadelphia? 


 And worse, why do you get my hopes up???  the traffic in Chicago was a 9 last night.  A NINEEEEEEEEE!

not chicago.  not even close.

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


3.  It had become painfully clear that i am the only running blogger asshole in Chicago that actually paid to run the 13.1 half marathon in June.  WTF?  Why don't i take the initiative to reach out to companies and event organizers to better my blog??  Why are you punishing me for my laziness, 13.1? See if i run YOU next year!

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


4.  Did you see they reopened the Amelia Earhart case?  Are you freaking KIDDING ME?  Either way, that lady is DEAD.  I am no detective, but it was a chick flying a poorly constructed plane over the tumoltuous waters of the south pacific.  Not to bust everyone's bubble, but i think she crashed the plane.  Take all that money you are going to use to find her ancient skeleton, and GO FIND CHEAPER GASOLINE FOR MY CAR.

Sorry your dead, but lets move on.

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


5.  I have a seriously pickle addiction, and the crappy neon green non-refrigerated pickles will not do.  I am a classy girl that demands Claussen pickles.  We went to pick up out weekly bulk container at the grocery store, and it was $7.50!! For a jar (granted a bulk size) of PICKLES!  When did cucumber inflation occur?  Did they pass some kind of tax on pickle brine that i was not aware of??

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


6.  It's official.  I have now had to create a compression sock budget so that i don't go beyond my means. For socks.  What has my life become.

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


7.  Michael Bay is redoing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  ENOUGH SAID.

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


8.  This girl has been giving me nightmares.  I need to stop watching Toddlers and Tiaras.

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


9.  My mom reads Kelsey's blog, and not my blog.  

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


10. And finally.  It was pointed out to me that it is in no way stylish to wear toms and compression socks to work.

I was misled!


FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.


11.  Maggie also has first world problems, and they are WAY more amusing than mine!  (or maybe i just find amusement in others sufferings.  maybe.)
