A way to riches?

I feel like crud. Serious. Crud. I have NO gumption to do ANYTHING ... work, clean ... NOTHING! The problem with that? I have to work, I have to take care if the boys; life must go on. Oh well ... My friend, energy, will return someday.

So, yesterday I was listening to one of my favorite talk radio shows and they were talking about how doctors are afraid of obesity being classified as a disease. The problem? When they would try and help their patients by telling them to NOT be fat .... the patients could become offended and sue the doctor.

WTF?!

Here is the EXACT problem with America that no one wants to talk about. We are all too freakin sensitive and sue-happy.

If I am walking through a store and someone looks at me funny, should I sue? If someone speaks to my sons the wrong way, should I sue?

What truly gives us the right to allow our offense to take money away from people doing their jobs, or using THEIR right to voice THEIR opinion? What ever happened to the old adage "sticks and stones"?

What would truly be great for America would be for some judge to finally take a stand on these frivilous lawsuits. If you spill coffee on yourself ... know that NEXT time you should be more careful! If you trip on the sidewalk, pick up your feet! If someone tells you you are fat ... LOOOK IN THE MIRROR.

This is my opinion ... just my opinion. I am just a mere person that walks around this world keeping her nose to herself and wondering why he have so many idiots walking around with her!

Although, on second thought, maybe I should sue the grocery store for being out of Clorox wipes when I grabbed my shopping cart, which lead to this nasty cold, which is not allowing me to do my job .... then I wouldn't have to have gumption to work any more because I could get rich! Hhhhmmmmmmm ...

Boycott

Is it un-American of me to want to completely boycott this inauguartion tomorrow?

I am so sick of the Obama hype ... the mass inundation of Obama worship. He is not my Messiah ... he is a political figure .. the same as Clinton, Bush and those before them.

We are spending countless amounts of dollars on security to porotect people during concerts and parties in his honor. If we are in such an economic hard time ... why is it plausable that our new leader is spending over $150 million on a party?????????

I am SO disenchanted.

Thursday Thirteen

13 Things I wonder about:

1. Exactly what makes people think Obama will bring about change but McCain won't? He ISN'T Bush .... he has already disagreed with many things ... so ... what is the big deal about this "change" platform they keep talking about?

2. Why can't the teams that I root for ever win? Why am I always on/rooting for teams that are losers?!??! High school football? HA! We sucked. All of the softball teams I played for? Can you say "slaughter rule?" The Cubs? Enough said.

3. I have been wanting a new job to make a better life for my kids for a while. Why can I not find anything; yet, some people THINK about a new position, and it falls into their lap.

4. If oil is at its lowest, why did my gas just go up 30 cents a gallon????

5. Why does it seem that EVERYONE I know gets to be stay at home moms? They go out to lunch, shop .... do ALL of these men REALLY make THAT mich money? Is my husband NOT????

6. When- OH WHEN- will I lose some weight!?!?!??!

7. Maybe some day my husband will have something hit him in the head and he will decide that he wants to move out of this frozen tundra we call Chicago .... ugh. Only September and people are already wearing winter coats.

8. Why DOESN'T bologna get pronouced like lasagna?

9. Will I be a HOT mama some day?

10. Why are some people able to hold onto friends for years and years and years ... and mine seem to change every few?

11. Will this winter be as cold and depressing as last? (Oh Dear Lord, I hope not!)

12. When will my husband be sent home?

13. Will they ever invent a diet pill that let's me eat WHATEVER the heck I want ... and still LOSE weight? How about a a device that allows donation of fat? Seriously, think about it. People can donate organs, tissue, etc. Well, I have enough fat in my thighs to make, AT LEAST, 5 women's boobs double in size! No more silicone ... just get donated fat!!! LOL!
