Do you ever wonder...

What would happen if a bicyclist driving down the road fell over on his bike directly in front of you?

Why it is that girls wear low cut shirts showing off their cleavage and then pretend they didn't realize that was happening.

Why everyone has to be off on Fridays and why you're always the one to pick up the slack?

Why people don't listen to you, even though they know you are right, and would rather suffer than admit they are wrong?

What happened to Carmen Sandiago or Waldo?

Why people apply for loans when they have old loans they have never bothered to pay?

How they get the gum into the middle of the blow pop?

Why some people think the entire world revolves around them? And that EVERYTHING is about them?

Why I ramble on and on with random questions when I should be working?

Why people wear socks with sandals?

Birthday, The good, the bad, and the ugly...

I turned 32 on Wednesday, feels strange diving deeper into my thirties. I kind of always thought I'd be doing more with my life by now but I suppose what I've done so far isn't terrible. I've got a fantastic husband, great family, a home, a cute little kitty, overall a great life. I'm blessed : )
But birthdays make me ponder life and it's ok to get older I suppose...anyway here is a recap of my birthday, the good/bad/ugly style:

  • Woke up early (bad) to Pat singing happy birthday (good) and saw my hair (ugly)
  • Phone rang (bad) Daddy sang happy birthday and mom said happy birthday (good) and then remembered hair situation (ugly)
  • Opened sweet card from mom and dad (good) check inside (not bad) smile on face (no ugly)
  • Went to work (bad) no cake for birthday (bad) pineapple cake coming the next day for birthday (ugly/yuck)
  • Got phone call from my sister wishing me happy birthday, phone call from in laws wishing me happy birthday, my nephew sang happy birthday (all good)
  • Got flowers at work (good) they were broken in half (bad) had to tell Pat, he was not happy (ugly-for Pro Flowers anyway)
  • Went to lunch with Pat (good) got CD at said lunch (not bad) sang on way back to work which I thought was lovely others might find it: (ugly)
  • Worked all afternoon (no good, only ugly and bad...work is not good it's work)
  • Left work (good) got presents at home (better) and cupcakes (awesome)
  • Sweet nephews told me happy birthday (good)
  • Went to eat at Outback (good) ate too much (bad) stomach bloated (ugly)
  • Beautiful niece called to wish me happy birthday (good)
  • Waited for my brother to call (bad) he did not (ugly) and still has not
  • Went to bed (good) full of steak and potato and cupcake (better) fell asleep with gorgeous husband (best)
  • Thursday was still my birthday, got a cupcake book from my sis in law (good) can't wait to make and eat lotsa cupcakes (bad) I'll be fat (ugly)

Overall I'd rate the day a 7, Pat thinks this is bad, but he's wrong. I had a great day with him, and only a few minor hiccups. I think I dwell on the bad too much anyway. Oh and today Paula bought me Subway and a cookie for b-day, so that was good too. I love birthdays, even if they mean I'm getting old.

Quick update: The brother finally called, a week late :)
