Today started weird

And got worse. At 6 AM I woke up, had to pee and went back to bed because my day starts later than most. At 6:17 my old clock radio turned on. It's old (like 20+ years) and that button is stiff. I have no idea how or WHY it turned on (my alarm is an actual alarm and set for 8). I'm like do I need a Boo Buddy for my bedroom?

I got to work and found out the mouse that ate the tea in my desk drawer took the long weekend to SHIT all over my desk. OMG the mouse trap is going to work. I got stuck at work forever because crap happens. I come home and decide maybe I should look as to why Rocket won't sleep in his bed any more outside. He's storing dead mice in there OMFG, bless his little heart, he's just not that bright.

And let's keep the strong potentially controversial opinions rolling. Let's talk about things you don't like in your favorite genres or at least things that get on your nerves (keeping in mind YMMV) I love mysteries. Cozy is one of my less faves but I read a fair number of them because they're everywhere and the library has scads. I don't buy many but when I do I ALWAYS manage to get one I don't like. Go me.

For me, what bugs me about cozies is if the amateur sleuth doesn't get along with the police. I'm fine if the amateur has a good relationship with the police (platonic or otherwise) like Jessica Fletcher but if the police is always going 'you interfere I'm arresting you for it' and the sleuth shows them up anyhow. I'm like why didn't they arrest her because?!? If half your drama comes from the cops threatening your sleuth I don't need your book.

This rant was brought to you from the historical piece of crap I'm reading now. I usually won't finish something I don't like unless I paid full price for it (and it fits the popsugar challenge too)

This is my fifth crown but the first to actually HURT. Boy this is bad.
