Dear Universe:

Just a few questions for you.

1. Why is everyone around me pregnant when I want to be?

2. Why are stupid people allowed to drive?

3. Why are there good, honest people in the world who have nothing and big jerks who have everything?

4. Why am I so disorganized?

5. When will the motivation stick?

6. Why does everyone care what people think about them?

7. How do you play the guitar?

8. Where did the phrase "no doy" come from?

9. Why do I blog things like this?

10. How did I go from being captain social to being shy and hermitized?

11. How can I learn to love exercise?

12. How does the internet work? I still don't get it.

13. Why am I nocturnal?

14. When will I have my own walls to paint?

15. Is it true that we don't eat in Heaven? If so--why?

Love ya,

raetime

Those are all very good questions, many of which I ask myself each day. Especially the first one.

oh oh oh!!! I too have never been a big fan of exercise but I know the answer to #11... Wii fit! I don't have it but my mom does and I plan to get it someday to get back into shape. It's SO fun, have you tried it?
Beau and Rach said…
P.S. WHAT?!?! We don't get to eat in Heaven?! That CAN NOT be right!

I'm starting to think that #10 is caused by spending our entire day with our kids!
p.s. I totally forgot about #8!!

I ask #2 almost every time I drive. As you know, we get the annoying snowbirds down here for the winter and most of them drive like crap! I was almost in an accident just the other day because of some old guy from out of state. Ugh.
I'm sorry about #1. I know there are tons of pregnant ladies right now, and I feel bad for those who want to be and aren't. I hope you guys can add another little one to your family soon! I'll keep you in my prayers.

Love this post. Let me know when you get the answers, I'd love to hear them.

I don't believe #12 :). You know more about the internet than anyone I know (besides Danny and Scott Harmon :). At any rate, good luck getting answers to the rest of those questions and please enlighten the rest of us when you get them. Love ya!!!

All of those questions are really good...but most of them will come before you know it. I had to wait 9 years before I got into my first house. I feel like everyone around me is pregnant...I am the most baby hungry I have ever been.
Things will come and you will be saying...wow I wasn't expecting that so soon.

It's so strange because so many of my friends are trying to get pregnant and so many of them are having a hard time. I guess it's just one of those things that we can't understand now. But I know what you mean about being hermitized--I get in those moods and I literally have to force myself out of them. We should force each other out of them by doing something together! :)

Wow, it's amazing how well thought out these questions are! I read them and found myself nodding and saying, "yeah, why?" Very deep Rae, very deep. I love it!
Seriously, what is the deal with #10? Come be a hermit with me! Lol! When are you free? I'd love to have you guys over so we can chat and play! Now that it is warming up we can use the backyard (for the kids to run around, I don't really want to run around out there so much).

PS-what happened with your back?
I totally know what you mean about the pregnancy thing! Oh, it's the worst isn't it?? Everywhere you look there's a baby or a big pregnant belly, or someone announcing "I'm Pregnant!" I felt guilty for being so bitter.
I want my own walls to paint big time.
And I just don't think it would be much of a heaven if we didn't eat. Eating is my heaven on earth, so it better be my heaven in heaven. :)

I don't believe you've lost your social side... but I think part of growing up means that the fun and games have to take a back seat.. and boring things like making dinner, paying bills, cleaning toilets take priority. NO FAIR!

Sorry... everyone is pregnant! Good luck with that one.
