Why Is It ...

… that when I tell people to pray for Carlos it’s not because there’s something wrong; it’s just that he married me and I’m a lot.

… that people don’t get it that I want to be invited but I won’t be coming.

… that when I’m feeling good I go to my blocked lists on social media and release one of two prisoners.

… that I can endure a lot of things at work without losing my cool, but having one of my “best pens” go missing is not one of them.

… that opening the microwave door 1 second early because I don’t need the hootin’ and hollerin’ is a form of self-care.

… that people seem to forget that I am Fucktose Intolerant and am completely unable to tolerate other people’s bull shit.

… that when Aphrodite lies around naked in a clamshell she’s a goddess, but when I do it, they call me a drunk and ban me from the aquarium.

… that no one remembers that I am not the bigger person; if you take it there, trust and believe that I am going way past that.

… that I’ve been having just two moods lately … IDGAF and IDGAF Part 2, now with extra attitude.

… that when the newscaster says shark-infested waters during a shark bite report, I shriek, “Sharks don’t infest the waters, THEY LIVE THERE!!!!!”

  1. I'm with you on the microwave. I don't know why they don't come with a mute button.

  2. Good point about sharks that also works for most wild animals that were there first.

    🤣 OMG! Stellar collection today! Poor Carlos. You ARE a lot, but that's why we are all here seeking your guidance! (This is a cult, ya know! 😘)
    🦈 I always root for the sharks when they are plagued by people-infested waters. Even nice people become an infestation when more than a coupla of 'em get together! 🤭

  6. “… that people don’t get it that I want to be invited but I won’t be coming.” I think a lot of us are like that.

    1. I've had conversations like this:
      Me: That sounds like fun.
      Friend: So you're coming?
      Me: No.

  8. Build a house where the bears live, and expect bears to soak in your jacuzzi, the bears were there first, and they like a good hot soak on a cold winter day.

  9. Thanks for making existential mood swings and everyday annoyances sound like a stand-up routine. I needed that laugh! Enjoy your weekend, Bob.

  10. Sugar,

    If everybody lit a candle for Carlos, the polar icecap would melt and millions would drown in the rising sea levels.

  12. You made me remember my nephew who when he was maybe 4 or 5 looking out the window and seeing some deer in the backyard said, "What if outside is inside for the deer and they're looking out at us?" xoxo
