Why Is It ...

… that one day, when my boss said to me, “You didn’t listen to a single thing I just said,” I replied, “That’s a weird way to start a conversation.”

… that nothing inspires the words “Fuck off” more than someone telling me to watch my language.

… that this getting old thing is taxing; I blacked out for twenty minutes this morning before I realized I’d put my hoodie on backwards.

… that another day has gone by and I have still never used (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2

… that the best way to hang up on someone is in the middle of your own sentence because that way they will never suspect you hung up on them

… that I am not much for seizing the day when you can just poke it with a stick!

… that when my mind goes quiet I instantly suspect that I am up to something I don’t want me to know about.

… that whenever one door closes I want to get a hammer and nails to make sure that bitch stays shut.

… that based on how I react when the toast pops out of the toaster, I will never look cool walking away from an explosion.

… that today I found a new work recipe … 1 cup of cluster and 1 cup of fuck.

  3. Hilarious, and I learned something today! I'll have to remember to hang up in mid sentence. :)

    1. And then right away you call somewhere else, and the person you hung up will call you back, get a busy signal or a "Leave a Voicemail" and think you're calling them and they'll hang up and you can go to lunch.

  5. I think I've actually USED that "hang up in the middle of your own sentence" technique...

  6. Hanging up halfway through your own sentence sounds magic.

    1. And most of the time they never suspect ... unless they've done it, too!

  7. After you have decided to poke the day with a long, sharp stick, it is best to put on your hoodie backwards so as not to be surprised by the toaster.

    1. The hoodie backwards is the best way to spend many days!

  8. "that nothing inspires the words “Fuck off” more than someone telling me to watch my language."

    I'm pretty sure Anne Marie felt the same way.

  9. I've found that I randomly say "Fuck" during the day because I know something somewhere in my house warrants it, sweetpea! xoxo
