why it is not illegal to ride a motorcycle without a helmet. why anyone would ride a motorcycle without a helmet. how in the world people know how to fold fitted sheets. why people think that skinny jeans are flattering. how stores like shopko and k-mart stay in business. football. why the average person loses 100 hairs a day and i lose about 5 times that amount. why people like olives. why marijuana is illegal but alcohol is not. how out of 300 channels i can never find anything to watch. why it is that every single time i put the pillows on the couch luke has to throw them off. why the word 'vacuum' has two u's. politics. the universe. how God came to be. why people would choose to take a vacation in las vegas. why i love cherry flavored candy but hate cherries. why i suck so bad at frisbee. how anyone can prefer chocolate ice cream over vanilla. gardening. white sunglasses. why it has become a necessity to access the internet on your phone. the huge appeal of Disneyland. how people can handle more than two kids. why guys have nipples. why neither of my kids look like me.
i'd love any insight you might have. really, i would.
Well, I can tell you how to fold a fitted sheet in a really nice square. I can also tell you that vacuum sounds alot nicer than vacum. Gardening is incredibly relaxing and symbolic and more than 2 kids? I get a gamut of personalities that add tons of humor to our home. I just wouldn't have it any other way. Love you Jen!
ReplyDeleteJulie you are amazing- that's why you can handle so many kids. gardening just isn't my thing--probably because i don't cook or eat enough vegetables. why can't it be spelled 'vacume'? and props on the fitted sheet. :)
ReplyDeleteI appreciate every question and in complete and earnest angst agree with my simple "WHY!??"
ReplyDeleteHaha. I can't help but laugh. I agree with you...especially about:
ReplyDeletefootball
300+ channels and nothing to watch
vegas vacation
vanilla ice cream
disneyland
but i really love cherries, and hate cherry flavored anything.
loves.
The only one I can help with, and the only one that really matters in the grand scheme of things, is the frisbee question. All the other confusion will eventually evaporate, but since frisbee is a celestial sport, we need to get started on a training program right away.
ReplyDeleteIf you want, I can send you my workout video, 12 Steps to Unleashing Your Inner Disk Jedi, but you can start right away with the meditation part---sit cross-legged on the floor in a quiet room, with the frisbee on your lap, then...ponder the circle...feel yourself becoming one with the disk....

ReplyDeleteVery thought-provoking post, Mrs Hanson. Although you got the chocolate vs vanilla thing completely wrong.
