It Just Isn't Right

… that after a hard, long workout, when I look in the mirror, I’m still fat.

… that chocolate tastes so good and good-for-me broccoli tastes horrid.

… that a company processes your purchase instantaneously but takes 4-8 weeks to process your refund.

… that football doesn’t last all year long. (Especially for the money they make!)

… that we work five days a week and are off for only two.

… that I have a great humidifier system on my furnace for these cold, dry nights, but if I use it, it leaves water marks on my ceilings and walls.

…that I could solve this problem by adjusting the amount of humidity each day as the temperature changes, but the controls are so high in the utility closet it’s too much of a hassle to make it worthwhile.

… that I’ve had to listen to John Madden (ugh) for all these years and only NOW is ESPN finally stepping up and taking over Monday Night Football.

…that despite all the publicity surrounding MNF’s move from ABC to ESPN, nothing has been said about what’s happening to Sunday Night Football, my favorite time of the week!

… that some of the cutest puppies grow up to be some of the ugliest dogs.

… that the rawhide bones my dog loves so much gives him the runs (and therefore I refuse to give them to him anymore).

…that the pottery class I really want to take locally is offered at 3pm on Mondays.

…that credit card companies can charge 17% interest and my savings account only earns 3%.

…that just about the time I get my favorite shirts/pants broken in and truly comfortable, they wear through and I have to throw them away.

…that people find my blog searching for answers regarding Suzy Kolber’s sexual orientation but never in regard to Chris Berman’s.

…that my car can go over a hundred miles an hour, but I’m not permitted to by law.

…that my cousin retired this year at the age of 36 (professional sports player). (In all honesty, he’s a great guy and deserves all of God’s blessings!)
…that some of us who were very close to our moms don’t have them with us anymore and some people have their mom and don’t even speak to her.

…that my 200 pound dog is afraid of my 10 pound cat.

… that my nine year old son knows how to cook better than my 26 year old brother.

… that I bought a little rug for Gabe to lay on instead of wearing out one spot in the carpet, and now he lays elsewhere.

…that despite having a bachelor’s degree, I cannot for the life of me, use ‘lay’ or ‘lie’ correctly.

…that I spent more money, time, effort and emotion on my brother’s Christmas gift and he’s the only person from whom I will not receive a Thank You.

…that some of my favorite blogs aren’t updated very often.

…that I’d rather be home on a Saturday night, watching the Patriots play and updating my blog than to be out at the bar.
