Why Is It ...

… that people don’t get it that I don’t waste time Googling song lyrics; I sing what I hear ... ♪♫ Dancing queen, young and sweet only seven teeth.♫♪

… that my mood has so many swings it’s a park now.

… that they ask you to be at the airport three hours before your flight but they won’t tell you what gate to go to until the very last minute.

… that, at this point, if a clown invited me into the woods alone, I would just go.

… that my social skills include: 1] laughing when I shouldn’t laugh; 2] telling jokes in awkward situations; and C] saying ‘You too’ when the waiter tells me to enjoy my dinner.

… that you need to know that before you judge me, I don’t care.

… that when someone tells me I look familiar, I say, “I don’t even go outside, why are you lying?”

… that I need an app that deletes my number from other people’s phones.

… that no one understands that if you think I’m mean now, wait until I don’t like you.

… that controlling my facial expressions has to be the toughest battle I fight every day.

    😳🥴 No! Please don't control your facial expressions! I see waaay too many people doing medically unnecessary things that don't let their faces move anymore. We must not be part of that stone-faced society! Let your face be free!! 🤪😝🙄😬

    1. Oh I would never control it surgically or through medical means, I just try not to let my true self show lest the people run!

    1. I am actually a very good liar; I have told some whoppers just for fun and people say, "I don't know if I believe you but you make it sound true!"

  4. Have you ever flown out of Heathrow? The worst in the world about not posting gates until the last minute.

    1. It's always the most crowded airports that seem to make it more difficult to get in and out of.

  5. That last one is the story of my life! Maybe botox would help.
    Whenever I return home to Spain, I follow instructions to check in at JFK 4 hours before my flight. Check-in never opens until 2 hours before my flight. I wait. I just know if I arrive just 2 hours before my flight, I’ll be told I’m too late.

    1. We always arrive early and then sit and read for the huge long wait until we can board!

    1. I seem to manage to do both: reveal everything and then other times reveal nothing.

  8. No poker face here...and sometimes there is a flashing sign that reads Fuck Off.
    The mood swing one reminds me of my daughter.

  12. Oh the airport one! And if you are meeting someone and their plane doesn't arrive you have to hunt down someone who knows what happened and what gate their replacement plane is arriving at.

  13. My former BIL used to sing "home, home on the range, where the deer and the cantalope roam"!

    1. Well, that's just plain silly. Deer don't roam with cantaloupe!
