Senseless Sunday Sarcasm : Murphy’s Law
Last night around 11pm, I finally felt sleepy enough to avoid the 3 am insomnia wake-up call.
But Murphy was there, reminding me of his law
ANYTHING THAT CAN GO WRONG WILL GO WRONG
So then, what went wrong last night?
If there’s a way to take the most space on your bed, the dogs will find it:
When you just want to crash, and there’s 3 inches of bed left, 100 pounds of dog becomes 1000 pounds when you try to move them.
But I was willing to try.
I reached down to pull the covers back and saw IT.
IT was all over the floor. IT was on the middle of my 7-moving-blanket bed, and the sickly yellowish specks in the white froth were floating in plenty of liquid.
And that liquid had soaked into the bed covers...
…and all the bedding I’d just changed a few hours before.
Most people think in terms of a sheet set, 2 moving blankets and a comforter. Noooo…I think in terms of 3 loads of laundry that wouldn’t be happening if a dog hadn’t lost his lunch.
I complained about it to my husband who said, “I’m sorry.”
“For what?”
“I was eating gefilte fish and gave them some.”
We’re not even Jewish, so why would he eat fish from a jar that is, to put it politely, an acquired taste?
“It was on sale at the discount outlet for $1.00 a jar,” he said, taking a piece out and slathering it with a sauce men seem to guzzle.
And no…I’m not talking about beer.
For a man, anything is palatable if you put enough ketchup on it.

Ha…not even Jewish…so funny…

My 2nd husband (my kids father) was Jewish. He used to eat Gefilte fish or whitefish for breakfast. I’d gag. I’d eat grits. He’d gag. So then, what did the kids eat? Grits and Gefilte fish.

Yes. Murphy has a lot to answer to. I think your hubby should be doing the laundry. So, Murphy must be related to my landlady who visits to do weeding outside my bedroom window on a Sunday morning at 8am! Maybe you should keep those kids out of your room? I know, impossible. Cheers,H

Definitely impossible. The whining and distress would keep me up at night. I’d only last an hour…maybe 1 hour and 5 minutes…before I had to let them in again. 🙂

Dogs & cats, too, leave their icky presents around. I’ve cleaned up enough over the years. Oh, isn’t it funny how a dog can all of a sudden get a lot heavier, when they don’t want to be moved! 🙂

It seems like lead comes out of the air and into their bodies. 🙂

Murphy’s Law’s is bad, but Rubanowicz’s Law is worse. Harry Rubanowicz was a thoracic surgeon at Manhattan’s (NYC) Beekman Downtown Hospital during the 1970’s. Rubanowicz’s Law states that “Murphy was an optimist”. Think on that one….

I suppose it means that if anything can’t go write it won’t?
Seriously, entire planet-wide insanity proves that Murphy was an optimist.
