Is It Just Me?
Join Wimberley humorist Susan Rigby as she attempts to navigate “the small stuff.”
Shouldn’t we get a discount when we opt for paperless billing? Or maybe a book of stamps that they won’t be using, as a reward?
Are toe prints as unique as fingerprints? Is anyone studying this? Why do I think I don’t have to write down three items I need at the grocery store? I usually come home with more than three items and not necessarily the three that I needed.
Why do I look a little better when I see myself in the mirror versus seeing myself in a photo?
Why is my dictation software now randomly putting punctuation marks willy-nilly throughout my messages, yet leaving off capital letters after a period?
Why do I feel I have to explain to a stranger why I have two boxes of extra large maxi pads in my car? I‘m doing a craft project, ok?
Why do so many thin young people wear extra large clothes? Is it to save money by keeping them throughout their lives, through thick and thin?
Why is it when I wash my hair, it is very straight, yet when I get caught in the rain, I end up with a head of curly cues? And it isn’t a pretty look!
Why do weed stickers go easily into my dog’s fur, yet need surgical- like instruments to get them out?
Why do gas prices sometimes go up 30 cents overnight? Does the Petrol CEO have to cover the increase in the price of eggs for his morning brunch get-together?
Why do the instruction manuals of some items that you have to put together spend more time writing that you should not put the plastic bags over your head, and then only show you 3 photos of how to put together the 50 pieces that you shook out of that plastic bag? Maybe they are aware that we will be frustrated and a plastic bag is not the answer.
Why do I wake up in the middle of the night thinking about questions like these? Is my brain bored and doesn’t need much sleep?
