What "first world problem" is plaguing you today?

I had this problem the other day: I was so full from stuffing my face with food, that it took forever for me to get drunk. :(

^LOL

I’ve had too much downtime the last few weeks.

I have too many shows on my DVR and not enough time to watch them. We’re down to 18%!

The other day I started to get grumpy because I had to drive 600 miles in the Volkswagen with no sattelite radio, Bluetooth or lumbar support. Then I bonked myself in the head and realized how many people would give their eye teeth for 1 reliable car and we have 4.

Baby is due in July. I don’t want to put her in day care. I found myself whining to my friend that both of us have jobs that are too good for either of us to quit and stay home.

@nikipedia You’re having a baby? Sweet. Someone deciding to be a parent that actually should be.

I never know what to eat for lunch. I can get out of my house and choose over 100 different restaurants and shit, but I’m always conflicted over where to eat. When I finally decide, I am unsatisfied and I always think “I should have gone to x…”

I ran out of tissues and had to use toilet paper to blow my nose. I know, right?

I’ve been spending so much time mentoring a new player in World of Tanks that I’ve hardly had time to hang with my guild in Ryzom.

If I hadn’t slept until noon, I could have gone to the Vegas Seafood Buffet when they were still serving salmon. ;-p

I am wondering if I should get a sitter for Friday night and accept a date request from a guy who is less than half my age.

Second toasted sandwich or not??????

I really want the new iOS7 operating system Apple unveiled on Monday, but it means I’ll have to upgrade my iPhone — as mine (3Gs) is too old of a model. whine

I really want access to Adobe’s Creative Cloud, but I’m unwilling to pay the $19.99/mo (which is discounted from $49.99 ‘cuz I’m a teacher) — SO, I’ll just have to stick with my full version of Adobe CS6 (which retails for $1200.00, but I get for free from my school).

My fucking cheeky butler just informed me he intends to take a month long summer break on safari in Kenya.
Dash it all & tommyrot, the bugger must be getting paid too much…I may sack him just for the sheer lulz.

I’ve been in a bad mood lately because I haven’t been able to afford the organic produce that I used to buy. I turned on the news this morning and saw the damaging effects of the tornado outbreak. And now I feel like a tool.

Too much overtime while millions are unemployed.

Jet lag and relationship woes.

Any problem you face after surviving a disease that’s meant to cull you out before the age of 5 is a first world problem.
And my answer today is loneliness.

Well, I have plenty of real-world problems, but my current first-world problem is this damn telephone headset. It’s supposed to automatically hang up the phone receiver when I’m done with a call, but it NEVER WORKS. I’ve strapped the thing down with Gaffer’s tape, Krazy-glued it down, everything. Just will. not. work. I actually have to reach across my desk and hit the “hang up” button. Annoying.

This morning I was rudely awakened at 10 am by my cleaning lady running the vacuum up against my door.

I know I am very lucky to have a job that helps me pay my own way and always have food/a roof over my head but….today I feel far too tired (lazy) to work. I just can’t be bothered.

Most of my drive to work is on a fairly uncrowded highway. Any time I can’t use my cruise control the whole way in, I am annoyed.

This reminds me of the white girl problems video.

My favorite: “My ice maker ejects ice too fast.”

I’m at an all day conference today, off campus, at a very nice hotel. A yummy breakfast and lunch provided — and I’m annoyed because the subject matter is boring.
whine

My teeth could use just a little whitening.

My daughter has a swim meet tonight, and I got offered tickets to a baseball game.

White wine or red wine. Seriously~
@tedibear I use to relate to that scenario. lol!

DOMS is preventing me from concentrating on The Wire
I really need someone to massage my thighs :(

The driver to take us to the jobsite in India this morning was a few minutes late. When I see the conditions over that road and the living and working conditions alongside it, for the entire one-and-a-half-hour commute, then it really hits home what is a “first world” problem.

My closet is a mess because I have too many clothes.

My colleague hasn’t turned her iPhone to silent so all I am hearing is the clicking of the keys when she types a message and then the annoying tone when she gets a reply!

I’m thinking about what stores I’m going to go to this evening after my haircut and color.

I’m also trying to think of images to decoupage and where I’ll obtain those images.

Also, too much stuff to do this weekend (family stuff) when I really need to organize some crap at home. Plus, my washing machine’s transmission seems to not be working, because when I wash clothes, it spins and spins and won’t shut off unless I do it manually.

I am feeling scattered because we have two homes and I don’t feel like I have roots anywhere. All this back and forth is making me crazy.

I’m going to a concert with my dad tonight but I really can’t be bothered, I want to stay at home and relax rather than go out (plus, no concert now could ever be as good as Barbra Streisand!!)

@Leanne1986: Who ya going to see?

@cookieman I went to see Rick Wakeman (formerly of Yes), my dad is a huge fan.

@Leanne1986: Oh Excellent! My dad was a big Yes fan too. I saw them twice with him years ago.

@cookieman The concert wasn’t as boring as I thought it would be, he’s a talented chap and very amusing when he talks to the audience! He played mostly music from his Six Wives of Henry VIII, Journey to the Centre of the Earth and Myths and Legends of King Arthur albums.

I saw a gem on BuzzFeed today that’s totally on topic.

why are they all about food?

Whether to get out of bed this morning. (Although i did run out to take the garbage out.

I can’t get my tires rotated because the tread depth on them is too different. This car only has 26,000 miles on it and I am annoyed.

I am sitting at a ‘Starbux’ right now using their power and WiFi, while having coffee and a spinach-feta wrap for breakfast.
The table is too small for my pc, the wrap, coffee, and cup of ice water.
