Why?

I’m tired today.. I slept for a long time, but I think I have about 35 years of sleep to catch up on. Ever have one of those nights where you just can’t get comfortable? Man, I hate that. I also hate that we spent $1800 on a bed that sucks a few years ago, and we’re going to have to spend $3300 to get one that works. (Tempurpedic, for those of you scoring at home.) You spend a third of your life in bed (or about 20%, if you’re me…) so I guess your bed should be a good place to spend time. If you take a $3300 mattress and figure out that over its 20-year warranty period, that’s about $0.45 a night, I guess that’s pretty good.

But I still hate the bedding industry.

Some questions I’ve been asking myself lately…

• Why is all the food that tastes good so bad for you?
• Why do people think that when they are in their car; they are in their own invisible world and they don’t have to interact with the rest of the planet?
• Why did the Lone Star up by my work close down?
• Why do I only have the capacity to remember 12 things on any given morning, so if I have 14 things to do that morning, two of them are not happening?
• Why do people who run churches so clearly not understand what churches are supposed to be about?
• Why did I get blessed with the best daughter on the planet?
• Why isn’t there any chocolate in my immediate vicinity?
• Why hasn’t Donald Fagen released the sheet music to Morph the Cat yet?

Bulletins as they happen…
