  1. I can definitely relate to a lot of your bug list. I think the tracking phone one is definitely interesting and can eve extend to tracking your wallet or keys. These essential devices easily get misplaced, and I always end up finding them in the weirdest places after 30 minutes of looking. Some of the bugs on your list were even in my blog as well. The link to my blog is below if you want to check it out.

  2. Hi Juan,

    I enjoyed reading what bugs you. I have similar annoyances about my phone! One tip about boiling water quicker is to use hot tap water instead of room temperature water and also cover the pot with a lid. Both lists I read were bugged by tangled headphone cords. Here's the link to my bug list if you want to check it out.
