3 Sayings That I Could Do Without!

"Distance makes the heart grow fonder"- Fonder of what, the person that replaced you? How is this comforting?

"Out of sight out of mind"- I thought distance makes the heart grow fonder?

"All babies are cute"- News flash people, NOT all babies are cute. I actually have a hard time playing with babies I don't think are cute.

The Art of the Argument

Men are not good at arguing/conflict period doing anything and everything in their power to avoid it. Having been in a few dysfunctional relationships with arguments that could have been a Pay Per View Battle Royal have taught me a lot about how men argue. It could be so much less complicated if they just realized a few simple things.

Subject:

No matter what the bout is about always stay on the main subject matter. Bringing up other subjects prolongs the argument. Stay on the topic and it will be over quicker than you can get the condom out of the wrapper for the make up sex!

Word Selection:

Be careful what words you chose to describe your lady during the battle. I'm not talking about the "C" word or calling her a slut, these words merely make some of us laugh. They hold no weight. I am referring to those words that can really do the damage like selfish, motherly, nag. Those words will always stay on the front of the brain. Especially the next time you ask us to make you a sandwich!

Fight To The Finish:

Always finish the fight, never leave to try to cool off, or blow off steam for too long. This always backfires, it leaves us more time to remember and fester up other "dumb" things you have done, talk to our girlfriends about it; and that alone can always add fuel to the fire. Don;t run away from it, stick around and finish it right there!

Saying Sorry:

being able to say I'm sorry and I'm wrong is a great quality to have. But thinking it makes the arguing stop immediately is the wrong idea to have. Most women want a solution, a compromise, a common ground. Tell us what you will do to make it up, make it better. For the love of God make something up on the spot, we just like an answer!

Veteran of the Facebook

There is no denying that I am a Facebook fanatic! One year and one million stalking hours under my belt has definitely earned me the title as Facebook All American a Veteran of the FFacebook if you will. If the Heisman trophy was given to the best Ffacebooker, I am pretty sure I would be a shue in. Since being a member of Facebook (which i should celebrate as an anniversary every year considering it's the best invention since the sliced bread) I have discovered some things that facebook rookies should be taught.

Being connected to friends and acquaintances through the cyber world is a remarkable thing. There are the benefits of looking through pictures of friends kids that you may not get to see too often, family that may live on the other side of the country, and reconnecting with old HS or College friends you haven't talked to in years. But in actuality , how much personal information do we need to know about our cyber world friends, Sharing emotional states, moods for the day, weather or not we are fighting with a spouse. This led me to think about some of my Do's and Dont's of Facebooking.

Do post pictures s of your children. I love seeing updated pictures of my friends and family's kids, it can always brighten a day or a mood.

Do post old pictures from "back in the day" it feels so good to reminisce of old times and remember where you came from and who you are.

Do post funny YouTube videos that can make the mundane work day go by so much faster.

Do make suggestions to others through sharing a link making a post or updating a status with great new movies or books to check out.

Do not put yourself in the "it's complicated with" relationship status. Acquaintances do not need to know you are in a rocky relationship.

Do not post pictures of yourself half nude. If we know you we know you have a fantastic body under that shirt.

Do not post status's that tell us you hate your life or your day is so miserable. If your life was that bad you wouldn't have time to update your status.


Do not post pictures that have "paraphernalia" in the background, have self respect.


Do not post pictures of your food. Honestly no one cares.


Do not have "Modeling Pics" album if you are NOT getting paid for those pictures. That would mean you are NOT a model.

So keep it light and entertaining, don't turn it into a place to moan about your life, a place to showcase of your half naked pictures, or a place to tell us how complciated your relationships are!

My Top 5 Favorite Female Film Villians

Ever since my brother has turned me on to the whole "comic book" and "graphic novel" world which has become an obsession of mine, I started thinking about women who have portrayed bad ass characters in Film. Since I'm a huge fan of Horror/Thriller movies I got to thinking of my favorite female villains. It was hard for me to put them in any order because they are all as equally disturbed.

1. Catherine Tramell played by Sharon Stone in "Basic Instinct"
She’s a brilliantly charismatic bi-sexual sociopath who effortlessly manipulates everyone in her path for entertainment value. How can any man resist that?




2. Annie Wilkes played by Cathy Bates in "Misery"
Hiding behind her cheery round face and her motherly facade Annie Wilkes is an extremely disturbed women who brutally tortures one her favorite writers.





3. Alex Forrest played by Glenn Close in "Fatal Attraction"
Alex Forrest lacks mental stability and stalks Dan Gallagher like prey. Alex's obsession becomes stronger and stronger with time and she eventually goes mad.




4. Baby Firefly played by Sherri Moon Zombie in "The Devils Rejects"
With long flowing sandy colored hair it was easy for this natural beauty to lure in victims for her clan. She has a combination of ruthlessness and young energy that is unparalleled.



4. Peyton Flanders played by Rebecca De Mornay in "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle"
Disguising herself as the amiable nanny, Peyton Flanders is after the vengeance of the deaths of her own husband and baby. Deliciously evil and bewitching she terrorizes the Bartel family with her charm and clever ways.

There is NO cuddling in Sports!

I will never understand those women who get annoyed when their boyfriends/husbands watch sports. Does it kill you you to let the man in your life a have a few hours to watch something he loves. I can't imagine these are not the same women who drag their significant others to the new Romantic Comedy that is playing. Do you actually think he wants to see that? Cut them some slack ladies and let them have their sports. When you say "im going shopping with sally" do they bitch an moan about it, do they try to tag along with you and hold hands in the mall ? f you are not into sports that's fine, but can't you find something to do on a Sunday that can occupy your time, with your own friends or yourself? Watching sports does not involve cuddling. I swear these women ruin it for the rest of us girls who love hanging with the guys to watch the game. There is no cuddling in sports!!!!!!!!!!!! I know women out there who try to cuddle up with the hubby on the couch and watch the game, where do you women come from? Women please get out of the movie you re living in in your head and come down to earth! Thank you!

Random things that annoy me

When people let their kids run around or hang on the back of your booth at restaurants.
You give the "your kid is cute" smile to the parents hoping they will then grab their kid and make them sit down, but they don't.

Kids screaming on airplanes.
I am not a parent, but can't you give those things benadryl or something to knock them out for a few hours?

People who dig for exact change at the counter.
Do we really still live in a world where people even carry change?

People who use AM and PM redundantly
When people say things like “9am in the morning” and “10pm at night.” One or the other will suffice, thank you.

Twisted phone cords

After spending a few minutes untwisting them, the are twisted up again after the next call.

Girls that hate the "C" word

Most likely girls I would not surround myself with.

PeOpLe wHo TyPe LiKe tHiS
Can someone please give one logically reason teens type this way? It takes so much longer.

People who post pictures of their food on Facebook.

I will never understand why they think I want to see a pic of their plate full of sushi.

People who post pics of scenery from their vacations
This goes along with the above, they are usually the same person. If there are no people in it (ie. outfits to see), I'm not interested.

Sub zero temperatures in some isles in the grocery store
This makes me not even want to continue my shopping. It can be 95 degrees out in the dead heat of the summer and I still must bring a hoodie in with me.

Hair salons filled with stylist with the worst color or styled hair.
Why would i want to go there?

When parents use months to say their kid's age after the baby has turned 1.
"He/she is 32 and 1/2 months" ...yeah uhm ok, people don't want to calculate to figure out your kids age.

Men love saying "I was so busy"

Why are men afraid to open the door to a daily "HI"?

I can't tell you how many times I have heard the words " I was so busy" come out of a boyfriend's or a males mouth as to why he didn't call/text/or email back. Not only have I heard them , but my girlfriends telling me the same thing. I can't express enough to these men that "YOU ARE NOT THE PRESIDENT ELECT" you can't possibly be that busy every single day to not pick up the phone, write an email, or text "just wanted to say hi" to someone you are seeing/liking/etc.

I just don't buy it, never did and never will. If you were so busy, did you not have the time to go to the men's room? Do you have one hand on the keyboard typing those important emails or on the phone making those important business calls with the other hand holding your genitalia urinating into an empty Gatorade container you leave next to your desk because you can't get up? Are you doing this all simultaneously while eating lunch?


Now I am not doubting that there will be those days when you are really that busy, god knows I have had those days, but there are those men who use it daily. They are busy, however they have time to update their Facebook status's, read the paper, check the scores of games on their phones, but they just don't have the time to say "hi" to you.

Men have the preconceived notion that women are so complicated and difficult, that we need so mush more than we really do. A simple "Just wanted to say hi" would 100% do it in my book! There must be women out there who want to talk all day to men ruining the "just wanted to say hi" for the rest of us. A text conversation is fine for a few minutes, but most of us are not looking to spend countless hours on the phone discussing the world's events. I just want you know I thought of ya, and likewise!


So men, don't be afraid to "just say hi" we are not all going to bombard you with mundane stories of daily events!!!
