Really?!?!?



I figured it was time for an episode of "Really?!?!?" Things that have encouraged me to say Really?!?!? in the last while have included:

-The economy. Really, economy, Really?!?!?
-My 401K. Really, 401K, Really?!?!?
-My friend Steven forgetting to bring his swimsuit on a Carribean cruise. Really, Steven, Really?!?!?
-Day-Z trying to protect all 4 dog food dishes at once. She sounds like a little pager going off if any of the other dogs step near. Really, Day-Z, Really?!?!?
- 7 new students during the month of January. Really?!?!?
- The accusations of a crazy woman. Really, crazy ass lady, Really?!?!?
- How ridiculously easy I have been getting winded during my 3rd trimester - Really, Schumpert, Really?!?!?
-The fact that we are supposedly so civilized and developed in this country, yet we balk at paying even a single day of maternity leave and make a woman feel entitled for wanting to take her full 12 weeks of unpaid FMLA. Really, USA, Really?!?!?
-Not a single republican (okay, maybe 3) in the Senate voted to pass the stimulus package, whining and bitching, bitching and whining, yet not fussing about spending 600 billion PLUS on the war in Iraq. Really, Senate Republicans, Really?!?!?
-Losing 3 plus hours of sleep a night because Schumpert is invading my lungs. Really, Schumpert, Really?!?!?
-Growing out of my MATERNITY shirts. Really, Schumpert, Really?!?!?
-Utah Legislature suggesting we cut 17.5 % from the education budget for the next fiscal year. Really, Utah Legislature, Really?!?!?
- Utah Legislature suggesting that we cut 5 days off the school year to save money, while just last year having suggested that we extend the school year because our "failing students" do not have enough time to learn everything that must be taught. Really, Utah Legislature, Really?!?!?
Well, I am afraid I could go on and on, but I don't want to self induce high blood pressure. Really, blood pressure, Really?!?!?
