There are several minor annoyances that are, well, annoying me right now. What with the fatigue of going to the gym and my long work Wednesday (7AM meeting to start) and I’m not exactly in the best of moods. The big boss at work also said a bunch of things that made a lot of us uneasy and implied he didn’t really care about people, just numbers. Pretty much what a big boss is supposed to do. Onto the annoyances.

First, I entered all my gas and mileage records for my Prius into a spreadsheet. I confirmed that the MPG measurement in my Prius is an absolute fiction. Even worse, it gets a lot worse mileage than the gauge indicates. It only does about 44MPG. My old Civic Hybrid cost about half of what the Prius did and it got better than 40MPG.

Second, the house that’s adding a second story down the street is blocking part of my view. It’s not much of a view, but I won’t be able to see if traffic is bad or not.

Third, I found out that there’s schmutz on my digital camera’s image sensor. Trying to clean it off just made things worse. I think I’m going to throw away the camera before it drives me crazy.

I know, not really problems, just small annoyances. I’m glad that’s all there is.
