Why Is It ...

… that when I write the book about all of the things I should have done with my life, I will call it my oughtabiography.

… that people talk about multi-tasking I think, “Yeah, I can listen, ignore and forget at the same time.”

… that no one understands that I don’t leave voicemails; you saw my missed call, that’s my voicemail

…. that the only clubs I’m into lately are sandwiches?

… that when things go left, I go right … to sleep?

… that my boss gets annoyed when I text him every morning to ask if we’re still on for work?

… that I am in a panic because I don’t know how to tell the cicadas all that’s happened in the last 17 years?

… that the Dildo of Consequences rarely arrives lubed?

  1. Usually, it's my boss who calls me to tell me work is still on, and then asks if I could come in early.

  2. Isn't The Dildo of Consequences the official symbol of the US Supreme Court?

  3. Just tell the cicadas what's happened in the last 4 and they'd probably go right back underground!

  9. Rule of life No. 1 Always carry plenty of lube - Just in case. This is a corollary of the Boy Scouts' maxim "Be prepared."

  10. I'm with you on the clubs. As for the "Dildo of Consequences," has it definitely arrived? Are we all supposed to get one?

    My addition to this list: "Why is it...that my martini is so small?"

  11. Employers should declare more random days off. Just send a message that says, not today dears we have a headache.

  13. Is the Dildo of Consequences related in any way to the Flying Fickle Finger of Fate? I hear that thing is never lubed up.

  14. In my case, I can appear to be listening, ignore and forget all at once. It's gotten me into trouble many times.
