What are your first world problems?

[Jillpie]

Floating around Stormalong Bay's pool on the lazy river, and getting increasingly annoyed at all the blow up inflatables hitting me.

I need to go back on our Africa trip, where I promised myself I'd never take tap water for granted ever again, seriously.

Wegman's was out of my favorite $35 per pound cheese, so I had to settle for Walmart's brand of Velveeta.

As long as it didn't come in a yellow box with black lettering, you're good. Quit yer whinin'!

I have a new one...

My brother just gave me an almost new sectional couch and it's longer than my old ratty couch. Now I'll have to rearrange the front room *sigh*

I absolutely LOVE that you called it the "front room" - that's what my grandparents and parents always called the living room too!

Both supermarkets in town have the snack sized bags of chocolate at half price.

My only issue is something I wil never get back.

My phone is too big. Either that or, it seems like my coffee is too hot in the morning so I have to wait a few minutes for it too cool down.

The WORST!

I am insanely afraid of mice in the home. We live in a rural area on a wooded lot and are on a quarterly pest control maintenance plan and we still have a bit of an issue this year. After stalking the dishwasher for 3 nights in a row, our cat caught one at 4am and promptly brought it to our bedroom. We keep our bedroom door open to let the pets come and go so I slept in the locked guest room for weeks so I wouldn't be surprised by any "gifts" overnight.

Even worse, the cat randomly started stalking the dishwasher again while my husband was out of town for a week on business. My anxiety was through the roof thinking I'd need to dispose of a dead mouse! Thankfully, nothing was caught that week.

As much as I hate mice I have never felt it was a problem that my cats left me a gift.

1) A dead mouse in the house is better then a live one, every time no questions asked.
2) They didn't tear its head off and leave a trail like my nieces does sometimes
3) They left it where I could find it and didn't hide it somewhere where it would smell horrible



AS for my first world problem? I'm tired, not becuase I did anything but just because I played a video game too late last night then didn't want to get out of my warm comfy bed to go to my somewhat annoying at the moment but well paying job.

Our McDonalds is running a promotion where soft drinks are $1 regardless of size. I took my son there yesterday and ordered a medium Coke for myself. I ordered the medium even though the large is the same price because I "shouldn't" drink a large soda, but I have a hard time not drinking it if it's there. They gave me the large anyhow.

The left arm on my Lumiere candle I carefully brought back from WDW a few years ago has a big crack in it... I suspect the cleaners dropped it...

Thanks, I thought I had already responded to a thread like this recently.

A good first-world problem thread is always fun. Although last time I posted one, I was informed that the phrase "first-world problem" is played-out and oh, so, yesterday.

I personally think the phrase "played-out" has run its course, but I still say that things are the bee's knees, so what do I know.

My washer broke on Friday night so I had to take our laundry to the laundromat. Too many wet towels to wait until Friday for new one to be delivered.

Picking out a washer, why does everything have to be so complicated?

It's really hard to find a good icelandic language class.

Can't you just substitute whatever language it is they speak in Greenland? That might be a little more accessible.

Ironic

Made more so by the fact that California is finally getting some rain.

I'm trying to figure out how there's nothing between $35/lb cheese and Velveeta.

Or nothing else at Wegmans?

Ah, so it's Tuesday there already. How was your Halloween?

I had to DVR Walking Dead so DH could watch the World Series. Gees priorities buddy

Someone bought me something today that I really wanted for a very special reason but it's not the kind I wanted. It's a lifelong commitment and I can't let them know it was the wrong one.

*No, it's not a pet.

C'mon - you can't leave us hanging. Tell us what it is before "somebody" spins-off and starts a poll...

How much spending money we can come up with for our next 17 day trip to WDW

Figuring out what weekend sports car I want to buy (though it's not a really big budget, but at least it's something)

Debating how to lay out the ridiculously large and expensive outdoor Christmas display I put up every year

I have a cough. Just a cough. I went to the doctor because it's been two weeks and it's just a cough.

She did take pity on me and call in some prescription cough medicine

These are verging on being actual problems and that's no fun...

Good idea! Or maybe Canada! It's all the same place anyways, right?

(lol j/k)

No - pretty sure you're thinking of the Turks and Caicos - we've been working on making it a territory for years!

The Eagles lost last night.
