things

like i mentioned the other day
i've had a lot on my mind recently
a lot of random things
things that i just can't help but think about
things that i just would love to have answers for....
so i thought,
my bloggy friends might be able to help me...

--why do people put birds on the side of their house?

--why are there so many kinds of things (apples, soft drinks, cereals, palm trees, shampoos, toothpaste)?

--when was it ever "cool" to have your initial on your chimney....and exactly what are you supposed to do if you ever want to sell your house?

--how can a seedless watermelon be made, but no one has figured out how to make seedless lemon?

--who ever thought to use left over conditioner for shaving?

--why are greeting cards so expensive?

--why is it so hard to paint my toenails?

--who spends their time coming up with the facebook quizzes?

--who thought up putting a candle in your ear to get the wax out?

--why is it that i can read blogs all day long, but struggle to read a book?

--how did dr. phil make so much money, just by pushing the "if it isn't working .... don't do it" philosophy?

--am i the only person the finds a new box of crayola crayons super exciting?

--will i ever learn to get rid of the hair all over the place (mine, turbo's, diesel's)?

--why do people in texas call a drive up bank window a "motor bank"?

--what is the point of having coin dollars and paper dollars?

--why does blogger choose to put the html code for divides into some post, and not others?

--and speaking of html codes....who sat down and decided that computers needed their own language that only certain people would ever be able to understand fully?

--when people sign a year book, why do they put their phone number in it?

--did i ever really ride the school bus in kindergarten with a bunch of high school kids, or is that just a memory that i made up? (mama....can you answer that?!?!)

--why does reusing something bother me so much more when the wrong thing is put in them ... for example putting coke cans in a doctor pepper box?

--when god made cats (and by cats i mean turbo), did he do that with the intended purpose of annoying people (and by people i mean me), or was it to allow people (and by people i mean me) to experience hell on earth?

--why are there so many words that are pronounced the same, but spelled differently?

Stopping by from SITS. Love the idea of using conditioner to shave my legs. Great idea. Oh and a new box of crayons excites me too:) Have a great Sunday.

I am so with you on being able to read blogs all day, but can't read a book! I have a short attention span and need lots of different things to read. That's why I can easily read magazines.

I have a question for you. How do you sleep at night with all those questions going through your head?

You have one...busy...mind!

One more thing, between Farmgirl Paints and you, I have now realized that I am NOT the only person that finds a new box of crayola crayons super exciting.
