Why Ask Why?
What the hell is Labor Day for? Anyone….Bueller….Bueller? Mind you I’m not complaining. I love a three-day weekend as much as the next person! But WTF is it for?
And why do I always end up with the kids for ALL the long weekends? Seriously, Memorial Day, Labor Day…and let’s not even talk about Thanksgving (apparently my ex and his wife work for the only two companies in the world–outside of retail–that make their employees work the day after Thanksgiving. That’d be Verizon and Dr. Pepper).
And why does the movies charge 5.00 for a 1.29 bottle of water? I mean, fuck, its WATER!!!!
And why do I get excited when gas drops to 2.51 a gallon? 
That’s just sad…..sad…..sad!
Ok so I KNOW I’m not the only one struck by such oddities. What’s yours? I have another set of Steph Tyler Blazes (SiGNED!) to give away…..so what are some of those things that happen in your everyday life that make you go
I don’t know - I’m still stuck on Labor Day - shouldn’t it be Unlabor Day?
you knew I would!
googled it–didn’t know it off the top of my head
How come I can spend $100 on a pair of shoes but it bothers me when toilet paper is $6.50 for a package of six rolls?
Um…
Blogging when I have my doubts anybody’s reading it anyway?
Too funny! I suppose you weren’t laughing when you typed this post, but honestly it did put a smile on my face. Here’s wishing you one extended weekend without the kids.
I got excited when the gas price went below $3.00. I’d be dancing with joy if I ever see $2.51 again. It seems to be playing out just the way those oil men wanted it to.
One thing that annoys me the most is the price you pay for ahh…all the items needed to take care of that thing that happens once a month with women, that most women don’t want at all. Like we have a choice and can go buy something else or do without. Well, maybe we can do something else, but we’d have to pay for that. Insurance doesn’t cover it. Amazes me that all the brands seem to price their products about the same. A person need a part time job just to pay for that stuff and all it does is go in the trash or get flushed away.
Oh, I have another one. Why is it that every pen I pick up to write with skips. I have hundreds of pens and none of them work.
How come when I want a peaceful weekend, my ex always manages to have my kids’ half-brother for the week? I never get to have a long weekend where he doesn’t manage to show up.
I mean the little b.. boy, isn’t mine, so why does he entertain him with my (ok, ours) kids at MY HOUSE?
Oh, and how come kids always manage to forget they had homework until bedtime?
I forgot to comment on MS. Dennie the Anal… We all need a break from the labor we put in no matter what we do; however, why do we always some how end up having to work anyway - family coming, cleaning the house because we have a day off, etc.
Bailey…….yes!
Denise…….you is uber-anal! but we love you
MIchelle the prize of TP always bothers me…….and why do they only sell four packs of the cheap stuff?
Raine……LOL
Kim I did laugh because if I didn’t, I’d cry LOL…and I’ll quit bitching about gas prices. I know we’ve got it better than much of the country!
As for feminine items….hell most insurance companies don’t even pay for BIRTH CONTROL!!!!!! But they do viagra which is ten today BTW!
Lynn you’re SHITTING ME????????
Why are personal trainers such a pain:
My trainer not only causes pain but he is a pain.
Hey, lets figure out your % of body fat, oh lets not I know I’m over weight why else would I be here.
Guys that workout and are well built are nice to look at, one can never get enough eye candy. When I see a guy that is well built but has no body hair and his eye brows have been shaped , you know the guy that spends more time in front of the mirror than a female, well it’s just sad.
