I’m worried . . .

This is a good picture of me, don't you think?

Sometimes, when I’m supposed to be working, I worry about stuff.  Usually, I worry about important stuff – like world hunger, world peace, when the heck Jax is going to take his shirt off this season on SOA, you know important stuff like that.

For some reason, today, I’ve decided to worry about what other people are worried about – so I called my sister.

I asked her what she was worried about.  She said she wasn’t worried about anything in particular but now that I called to ask, she was now worried about why I was worried about what she was worried about.  It serves me right for being concerned.  I hung up.

Next, I asked one of my co-workers what they were worried about today.  She immediately launched into her worry that it’s only 32 days, 12 hours and 46 minutes until Christmas.  She’s worried she won’t be ready in time.  Geeeeez, now I’m worried about that too.  Note to self, don’t talk to coworkers.

32 days left 'til Xmas

I texted the girl who lives at my house and asked her what she was worried about.  Following standard protocol, she didn’t answer the question but told me that I should be worried about texting her in class because I know she can’t get texts and I’m going to get her into trouble – again.  Sorry about that, girl who lives at my house.

Everyone gets worried, even Leonardo Dicaprio

I’d ask Amylynn what she’s worried about but everyone knows she abandoned me to go on some horrible Caribbean cruise.  Her father told her not to drown and I’ve been worried about that since she left.

I thought I’d contact the White house and see what they are worried about over there.  There’d have to be a lot of worrisome issues on their minds – right?  I mean, as a nation, we’ve got some troubles.  I told the receptionist that I’d like to speak to the president and she asked me why.  I told her that I wanted to discuss his worries.  I was certain she’d go find him because I’ll bet most people call there to discuss THEIR worries and not his.  Somehow, we got disconnected.

There must be a problem with the governmet phones because something like that happened yesterday when I called NASA.  Now I’m worried about that.

    I understand the tongue in cheek thing. (At least I hope that’s what it is–maybe I’ve just been related to Amy for too long. But, here’s my view on worry:

    “Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.” –Leo Buscaglia

    BTW–I’ve been enjoying the posts in her absence. When she’s writing you other Quill Sisters don’t seem to show up as much.
