It was Saturday morning, and I was trying to make a game plan for the day so I would actually be productive instead of lounging around watching CMT's top 20 music video countdown and complaining with my roommates, yet again, about how they should have hired a cuter guy as Taylor Swift's love interest.

Patience is not my virtue. People who turn left just slow enough that I miss the light, late arrivals, missing a call by two seconds and calling right back and the person doesn't pick up, Ke$ha, misbehaved children in the grocery store, birds who chirp too loudly in the morning, the morning in general ... the list of things that I find annoying could go on and on. I've recently had a very unsettling realization about all these aggravations, however: I'm guilty of most of them.

Where do you like it? On the floor, on the desk, on the back of your bedroom door? Unless you've been living without Facebook for the past month, you probably know that girls across the country are liking it in a lot of different places.
