Really?!

is the name of a new segment on the SNL Weekly Update with Amy Pohler and Seth Myers. I have a Really?! segment of my own, and so if you are familiar, put yourself in the mindset. If not, I apologize in advance for my ramblings. Ready? Maureen, you thought you would take a personal day today. Really? You figured since dress rehearsal week was half over, you would take a day to relax and sleep in? Really? You didn't think Chase would wake up twice during the night, Shawn would go on a call at 4:30, and that Hayden would want to be awake at 5:54?! Really?! That didn't occur to you at all? OK, so then when you did get out of bed, you decided to take a shower with the bathroom door open. Really? This was a good idea because the baby wouldn't try to pull back the shower curtain, leaving gigantic water puddles which he played in while you feverishly attempt to rinse shampoo from your hair?! Really!!! When everyone is ready for grandma's (because you scheduled a hair appointment at 9:00. Really?) you head out. Drop them off, get a haircut, pick them up, and head back for home, thinking you'll make macaroni and cheese, because YOUR house NEVER runs out of macaroni and cheese. Really? Well, apparently, today is the day for nevers. Peanut butter and jelly it is. Nap time? Really? Nice try. Hayden plays in his crib for 90 minutes, and then has a screaming fit. You rock him from screaming to dozing. He will nap? REALLY?!!!! He dozes off for an entire 10 minutes. So here you are with your cranky kids and a dress rehearsal facing you in 2 hours. Really. You would've had a more relaxing day at work. Really.

SNL hasn't been funny for years but I'd watch The March Family show anyday. Really!

Andrew, did you save the receipt for the kid? Can we still take her back? Is it too late? Really?
