I’ve been a prisoner in my home, hibernating from the elements. School has been closed for the fifth time and winter is far from over. Trying to work from home with a six year-old is challenging at best.
Because of this situation, my mind has wandered and wondered. It’s a protective measure, like putting sunscreen on. A necessary step to protect myself from edging towards insanity. So, without further ado, I present to you my list. A list of things I’ve thought about for far too long.
Why is it that:
- You get a new car, park it at the far end of the parking lot, someone with a Ford Pinto will park within an inch of your driver’s door.
- I get to the checkout line and I end up behind grandma with her 50 coupons and checkbook
- You race home to catch your favorite TV show and it’s preempted by some “urgent” news that no one gives a crap about
- I have an important lunch meeting and realize afterwards I had a big piece of broccoli stuck in my teeth
- I race up the stairs because I have to do something and when I get there I can’t remember what it was
- You worry so much about what everyone thinks when no one knows or cares who you are
- Everything bad for you has to taste so good and the healthy food tastes like torture
- No matter how hard I try to cook at home, nothing tastes as good as eating out…wait, I actually know the answer to this one…it’s because I’m lazy and I hate cleaning up!
- When you have nothing to do, your kids will leave you alone, but the minute you’re busy they’re all over you like a bad rash
Well, enough of a brain dump for now. It’s time for the DVR and “Mob Wives”.
