How Come.....

How come when you have a cup of water in a cup, it's a cup of water. If you spill it in the floor it's somewhere between a gallon and an Olympic size pool portion?

How come you can change your baby's diaper and it's no big deal, but if  you change your best friend's baby's diaper it makes you wish you were spending a week at the city dump instead, so you could get some fresh air?

How come when you say something about someone, and you've not seen them, say in a decade, they pop up from behind the sofa so the embarrassing moment of being overheard can be shared?

How come when you have only ONE ornament that is fragile, valuable, and loved by all it is the only one that is dropped?

How come cats are only drawn to company if they really, really hate cats?

How come a man can't hear himself snore, but the next door neighbor's are kept awake by it?

How come little kids never have a bad dream and come screaming into your bedroom unless you are in the middle of having really, really good.....discussions?

How come no one gives people things unless they are movie stars, famous athletes, or the king and queen of some country? Am I missing something here?

How come a man can be looking straight at something and can NEVER find it?

How come, when your house is almost always immaculate, the one day you decide to let your hair down and say the heck with housework, the preacher, his wife, and all the deacons show up at your front door unannounced? And of course, you don't have on a bra.

How come a girl's complexion is flawless until the morning of the prom. And the zit is right there -  tip of the nose, middle of the forehead, end of chin....

How come no one talks to you all day until you are in the middle of 'and the murderer is' part of the book you are reading?

How come when you hit the perfect note, hit the perfect shot, do the perfect split, balance on your head, or beat solitaire on the first round, no one is ever, ever there to see/hear it?

Please don't try to answer any of these, it would only give us both a headache.
