Most annoying tasks you do

[Deety]

Stopping for gas... the car always seems to need filled when I'm in a hurry, mainly because I'm always in a hurry. It's amazing how pampered I've felt on the very rare occasions I've driven with someone who jumps out the car and takes care of it for me.

I don't buy clothes that require ironing, and dark colors make up 95% of my wardrobe, just to keep laundry day simple.

Not something you would do everday but ....

Yesterday the wife decided she wanted to put Christmas lights on our back-yard deck. OK, no big deal, until she said she said she wanted to wrap them around (4 times) each friggin rail spindle. Took me 2 hours !!

talking on the phone! i hate it! i opened the cell phone bill last night, and i haven't used mine since i got the company phone, but my wife used 1100 minutes last month (our plan has 1500 anytime so its not an issue there). thats 36 minutes per day, i just dont see how! she works 40 hrs per week, and only has a 15-20 minute drive, so she must talk on that damn thing everyday for the whole drive home and some on the drive to work!

I think most of the major annoyances have been mentioned already, but I pretty much hate any recurring task. I like a task that I can do once and be done with it and have some sense of accomplishment.

Filling the gas tank, cleaning cat litter, laundry, dishes, dusting, vacuuming, etc. are wholly frustrating, because as soon as they're finished, you know they'll need to be done again in a couple days. Blech.
