Are You Like Me?

I know many of you can relate to how tough things are here in America. Our Stock Market is crashing and our politicians have no desire to address the real problems. Gas is expensive and the interest on student loans and mortgages is going up. This climate made me want to share some of my troubles with all of you so we can see how hard times really are and hopefully it will inspire us to work together to make the world, and more importantly our country, a better place.


Just today I was trying to fast forward through the commercials and when I hit the play button the TiVo didn't respond and it went all the way to the end of the program.

Last night I specifically told the guy delivering the food to my front door I wanted two ranch dressings and he only brought one.

I put my left over pizza in the microwave and the timer is going out and it overcooked my lunch.

The nozzle on my shower is loose and the hot water doesn't come out at full force and causes me to take colder showers than I like.

My mail usually gets here by eleven and today it didn't get here until almost one.

I tried to sleep in but the lawn service guy was cutting my lawn right next to my bedroom window.

I couldn't find my favorite bowl to eat cereal in because my cleaning lady put it in a different spot.

I wanted to look up something on my cell phone but it was taking too long for the signal to travel to space and back so I gave up.

I turned on the radio to listen to music and then some commercial about the SPCA got in the way.

I tried to purchase some stuff on Ebay but my bank won't let me spend more than $400 online.

I went to the emergency room to check on one of my friends and couldn't even make it through lobby because a bunch of poor people made it impossible to get in. 

I went to the liquor store to buy some chew and some dude bothered me by asking me for change.

I went to post something wonderful about my life and how great my kids are on Facebook and someone ruined it for me by posting something about politics and compromise and I had to see it. It really bothered me that it had over 100 comments and I had to read them all. 

When the lady was done cutting my hair and took me to the sink to wash it I got a cramp in my neck.

The rack that holds my clothes in my closet collapsed from too much weight.

I went to Walmart and some retarded guy tried to talk to me when I entered the store.

I tried to call my buddy to shoot the breeze but he didn't answer because he has a job and had to work.

I had money saved up to pay for my health insurance premiums and now my government is trying to pay for it.

I was watching a rerun of Two and Half Men and they broke in and interrupted it to talk about a helicopter crash where 30 people on the other side of the world died.

I wanted to travel to Los Angeles a while back but the government was working on the roads.

I wanted to cry but couldn't find my Restasis.
