Why ..
October 1, 2009 | Filed under: Stuff
… does the cat sit on my chest at five in the morning at stare into my face until I crack open an eye and yell “WHAT?”
… does the teenager insist on saying “I can’t possibly know how hard high school is!!!”. Right. Because I was never 15.
… does Alpha Man ask me every morning where his wallet is? Where his phone is? Where his keys are? WHY? Do I ask him where his head is????
… do I insist on eating pizza rolls even they always, ALWAYS, give me a stomach ache?
… can I never beat Alpha Man at pool?
Sorry. I had to get those questions off my chest. Thank you for listening.

Why do I continue to live in the midwest where it’s soooo cold? I hate winter.
Why can’t I win the lottery and live a life of leisure?
Why hasn’t Gerard Butler come into my life and noticed my greatness? (oh sorry, that one was supposed to stay in my head LOL)
Why am I up so friggin’ early????

I have just about every problem you stated with the exception of the cat. I swear I don’t know how my husband made it before he met me. I ended up buying him a nice box to put all of his stuff in when he got home from work so he wouldn’t be rushing to find everything but I still end up having to walk around the house and find keys, wallet, and anything else he needs the next day and put it in the box for him….annoying.
PS. CP is asking her friend for it again. Might be a lost cause, but I’ll let you know.

1. the cat is trying to hypnotize you into doing her bidding. Cats love minions.
Posted on October 1st, 2009 at 6:26 am2. It’s teenager ‘thang’.
3. Men are lost w/o a woman.
4. We like what we like to our detriment.Mine is Chinese food.
5. He has put in more time handling his, ‘stick’.

I get a stomach ache from pizza rolls too!! But I continue to eat them as well!! When you find the answer let me know – a : why they give us a stomach ache, and b- why we continue to eat them anyway!! They are sooooo good in a frozen processed kinda way!

Oh Melissa how I your response to #5!! The bigger why question is …Why do we continue to put up with the cat, the teens and the hubby? I told my family I hope heaven has Condos because I want my own…I’ll let them know when I feel like visiting. Glad I’m not the only own out here with a husband who can never find his crap in the mornings.

Why…if we knew the answer we would be very wealthy!
When I was still working as a receptionist one of the questions I was often asked was How long_____ would be on the phone? Not being a physic I had no idea! My answer was probably not the one I should have been saying!! How was I suppose to know how long someone would be on the phone?? Okay, I will be quiet now!!
Love your blog. You always make me laugh/smile.

Why am I the only one capable of feeding the cats? Or picking up the clutter two kids and a husband generate around the house? And no way in the world am I thinking about boyfriends when I have a fourteen year old Daughter. Thanks for the scare! ACK!

Why do I try win Jill’s books. I have everything she’s ever written except maybe 3 or 4 from way back. I would actually have to dig for this info if I ever won and then I would not know which one to ask for.
Posted on October 1st, 2009 at 2:13 pmI know, it’s because I’m a well-trained fan. Wave something in front of my face & I have to jump for it. I have the intelligence of a kitten with yarn.

1. cats know who feeds them..it’s not alpha man or the teenagers
Posted on October 1st, 2009 at 4:51 pm2. because she’s a teenager and she thinks you’ve lost your brain (they will think you got you brain back when they turn about 25-30 yrs old)
3. next time he asks reply with this…”I don’t know. Where did you leave it?”
4. because we think a miracle will happen and those problems won’t happpen next time
5. because he’s an alpha man and he just refuses to lose at anything….especially to his woman!

Sometimes it’s necessary to get those kinds of things out.
