My sister is driving me crazy. Darn it. I know what that means.
I'm no big fan of Alcoholics Anonymous. But they do occasionally get something right. I've always liked their saying, "If you can name it, you've gotta claim it." Right on. If you can easily identify a character flaw in someone else, you've probably got a touch of it yourself.
And my sister is in the same gene pool. If she's doing something that I can readily identify as being incredibly annoying - odds are, I do it myself - and hate it.
Example:
I once asked my mother what annoyed her most in other people? Her answer?
"I just hate it when someone goes on and on and on and never gets to the point. You know? They just keep repeating themselves over and over again. Why don't they just get to the point and tell it once? I just hate that. I mean, there's no point in repeating it over and over. We heard you the first three times. They need to just say it once and be done..."
Etc., etc. And I cringed. Geez, I hate it when other people do that too. How annoying!
So I have to look at what my sister is doing that annoys me, and check myself. *Sigh*
