Annoying, a comedy of teen love and life.

Being annoyed starts when you're a child. You know...the cheek pinching....sloppy kisses on your whole face...being tossed in the air by your "Look everybody..I,m a strong man who can toss this kid" uncles....right after you had supper. Being annoyed by siblings must be a law of nature. You just know...the booger they are digging for in their nose is going to wind up on you or one of your possessions.

Then school...ah school. It is most annoying when the teacher doesn't think you are as cute as your mom does. You realize that you aren't special and you wish...just once...just once...she would make everyone in the class but you stand in the corner...sit you on her lap and pinch your chubby little cheeks. You learn fast..how to tell time and then....angst...the countdown to recess begins for the next 12 years!

Throughout grade school...the boys tease the girls by pulling pony tails and both being little jerks or jerkettes by making faces at each other while in class. The worst part about grade school is the vomit...oh the stench..whose turn is it to throw up today? It always splatters and then the janitor sprinkles that nasty pink granulated stuff on it. Grade school barfing must be in the nature's law book too.

Then comes good old Junior High. The boys notice quickly that the girls have changed over the summer. They are curvy and have boobs. The girls sense that the boys are seeing them differently now. It is the girls turn to tease the boys! This annoying law of nature lasts from then to death. Puberty kicks in and your whole body is annoyed. You get pimples....hair where there was none before....and the opposite sex becomes absolutely confusing to you!

You're in High School then...the ninth grade! Finally you grace the halls of entering adulthood. Why are all of the girls in your class ignoring you and looking dreamy eyed at the upper class- men? The girls are wondering,"Why are the upper class-men guys ignoring us? You just want to shout that word...that big "F" word until you run out of breath!

You wonder about sex? Your friends have told you what they know about sex but your friends are in general...lying idiots! Who ever said that High School is the step to prepare you for life is totally full of shit! It is about who is hot and who is not! It is about bosoms, butts, bods,curves and crotches!

You finally make it to being a Senior. You have learned a little more about the complexities of sex. You have kissed and fondled...maybe even went all the way but it was awkward and not the fire works you had heard about. You sit in government class and day dream about sex or if a female...romance. Your raging hormones have calmed a little but you still want to scream the "F" word while running down the halls!

Finally...graduation day! Everybody is in their graduation garb with the square hats and tassels. You have put in your annoying 12 years of hell! But wait...what now? Oh crap! Now you have to be responsible...the most annoying thing of all! You have to go to college for more years of the same shit or get a JOB! You find yourself missing high school...the hell you just came out of ...and celebrated!

Many, many years later....you stand naked in front of your bathroom mirror...your kids have grown up....you're close to retirement...you are worn out.....you finally scream...."F*******************************************************************************************K!"

Your spouse peeks around the corner...smiles and says,"That was annoying!"

Life is annoying...I don't know why...but I do love it so!

Why life is worth it.

"A little girl had just finished her first week of school.'I'm just wasting my time' she said to her mother. 'I can't read, I can't write, and they won't let me talk'....

You got it pretty much right on Tom...:O) Hugs G-Ma
