Things I Wonder

1. Why do Pittsburgh drivers GO instead of STOP and take their turn at stop-signs? Does the Pittsburgh DMV not teach the first-person-goes rule?
2. Why are we more inclined to eat healthful foods in practical portions when we are exercising? And why, when we are being sedentary and lazy, do we crave fried and fatty foods?
3. Why do people use all but the last 5 squares of toilet paper, and leave the practically-empty roll for you to change? Is it so hard to just use it all and replace the roll? (This applies to anything that runs out, that is shared, for example salad dressing, the water in the Brita, etc).
4. How is it that I can't see for sh*t without my glasses, and other people have 20/20 vision? Not fair!
   
5. Why are babies so damn cute? Like, all babies, even the ugly ones?
6. Ditto, but for puppies and baby animals in general? (shout-out to baby pandas and polar bears)
7. What the heck is up with middle-aged women and fibromyalgia?
8. Am I allergic to gummi bears? Please God No!
   
9. Why is it so easy for me to read Slate and the Daily Beast and the Times and the and the LATimes and the WSJ and... and... and BLOG!, but so hard to write one letter of recommendation for myself?
   
10. Why are weddings the way they are? Why? Why why why why why?
