9 Words Women Use

via



I'm not sure who is responsible for this list, but I think most women would agree that it's fairly accurate. I've used all 9, and my husband has learned the meaning of most of them.
 
1.  Fine : This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
 
2.  Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour.  Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
 
3.  Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
 
4. Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
 
5.  Loud Sigh : This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
 
6.. That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
 
7. Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome.
 
8. Whatever : Is a women's way of saying SCREW YOU!
 
9. Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking  "What's wrong?" For the woman's response refer to #3.
 
*To the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology.
 
*To all the women you know to give them a good laugh, cause they know it's true.

TV Shows to Get Us Through The Summer

If you're anything like me you are being hit with a wave of depression because most of your favorite shows are on hiatus for the next few months! Grey's Anatomy left me devastated, shocked, and a little pissed off. Hart of Dixie left my heart in a twist. And even though I haven't seen the final episode of Revenge yet my stomach is in knots! 
 
So what will we do for the next few months?!?!?! I have the answer for you right here. Someone somewhere has finally figured out that people want new tv episodes over the summer too. So here is a list of shows that I think will help us all through the coming months.
 
Shows I already love

"The Bachelorette" 90-minute Season 8 premiere
Mon., May 14, 9:30 p.m. ET on ABC
It's single mom Emily Maynard's turn to date a bunch of men, go on fabulous dates and hopefully, find everlasting love ... or at least someone to propose to and then break up with.
 
 
 
 
 
 "White Collar" Season 4 premiere
Tues., July 10 at 9 p.m. ET on USA
With a sunny new locale to kick things off (they shot in Puerto Rico), "Smallville" and "V" alum Laura Vandervoort joining the cast, likely as a new love interest for Neal (Matt Bomer), and Mekhi Phifer stopping by to play a federal agent, this season sounds especially steamy.
 
 
 
"Leverage" Season 5 premiere 
 Sun., July 15, 8 p.m. ET on TNT
There are plenty of cop shows on TV, but for those who like to see things from the thieves' perspectives, this show sets up new heists each week.
 
 
Show's I've never seen but have been told I should, 
OR the description makes me want to watch it.
 
"Sherlock" Season 2 premiere
Sun., May 6, 9 p.m. ET on PBS
This sleek BBC update on the classic tales of Sherlock Holmes was nominated for an Emmy and won the BAFTA Award for Best Drama Series -- and for good reason. If you missed Season 1, it's easy to catch up: The three 90-minute episodes are streaming on Netflix.
 
 
"Franklin & Bash" Season 2 premiere
Tues., June 5, 10 p.m. ET on TNT
We're not sure we'd actually hire Franklin and Bash to defend us, but that doesn't mean we wouldn't have fun watching them try.  



"Perception" series premiere
Mon., July 9, 10 p.m. ET on TNT
Everything isn't always what it seems, and this new drama proves that one man's perception is another man's truth ... and possibly another man's hallucination. Eric McCormack returns to TV as Dr. Daniel Pierce, a slightly unhinged professor and neuroscientist who helps the FBI out with tough cases.
 
 
 
"Trust Us With Your Life" series premiere
Tues., July 10, 9 p.m. ET on ABC
Improv is back on TV with this new show, from the creators of "Whose Line Is It Anyway?," hosted by Fred Willard. Celebrities like Ricky Gervais and Florence Henderson tell funny life stories while the cast of improvisers reenacts them.



 
So before you start looking for those anti-depressants remember that there are other options out there! Thank you Huffington Post for the info, they listed a lot of other shows if you're interested check them out HERE. Does anyone know of any other cool shows I could watch this summer?

Which TV Best Friend is Most Like Yours?

Do you have a best friend? What are they like? Are your best friends anything like these best friends?

 Mozzie from White Collar
Highly intelligent, resourceful, inventive, secretive, and incredibly paranoid. 
Mozzie will be there to help you solve any problem. He's quirky and strange but he'll stand behind you against any odds. He's not always the best influence, but in the end he always comes out on your side.


 

Brittany from Glee
Friendly, upbeat, loyal, popular, often confused, and a touch oblivious
Brittany doesn't always understand what's going on around her, but she's almost never without a smile.




 Christina from Grey's Anatomy
Determined, driven, fiercely loyal, a little selfish, single-minded, and logical
Christina is not one to sugar coat things for you. She tells you what she thinks regardless of whether or not you want to hear it. You could call her to help you through the most horrible of situations and she would run right over.


 Nolan from Revenge 
Rich, funny, loyal, does what's best for you even if you don't see that, eccentric, lonely
Nolan has been lonely for a long time, and once he's found a friend he'll do whatever it takes to be the best friend he can be. He's rich and tech savvy and is more than happy to use his resources for your benefit. He may be a little too trusting at times, but his big heart is one of the reasons you keep him around.






Cece from New Girl
Popular, loyal, way hotter than you'll ever be, and teases all your guy friends
Cece is a gorgeous model who knows full well the effect she has on men, and uses it to her full advantage. Despite her man-issues she will drop everything in a heartbeat if you need her.



Gus from Psych
Funny, loyal, talented singer, great at releasing tension, afraid of ghosts
Gus see's himself as a suave, cool guy who's great with the ladies, however he's not quite as cool as he'd like to think. He has a few irrational fears and a love of things like spelling bees, however he will put his trust in you when it really counts.




In case you're wondering what my best friend is like, I would say that she's most like Christina, but with a large does of Brittany. Yes Katie Ann, I'm talking about you girl. So tell me, who is your best friend most like?

o.b. Tampons "I'm Sorry" Music Video

When I go to the grocery store to buy tampons I really don't have a preference for any particular brand, but I gotta say this stunt has made me want to buy o.b. Tampons. Apparently o.b. discontinued a line that a lot of people got really upset about, and because they kept hearing from consumers how angry they were they made this video that you can personalize with your name. I LOVE IT:

CLICK HERE TO WATCH


I've gotta say that this is pure awesomeness.

Someday, when my husband or children, or even just a random person gives me one of those weak I'm-not-really-sorry-but-I'll-say-it-if-it-makes-you-happy apologies I'm going to go to this site and just play my song over and over again. If you are having a bad day I am pretty confident that this will make you smile. Give it a try.

Graduation Take 2 & She's the Man Fun

Sorry for the lack of new posts, it's been a busy couple of weeks with the end of school. Tad has graduated once more, this time with a Masters of Accountancy! Go Tad!!! I promise I will be much better from now on.

In the mean time I leave you with one of my favorite clips from one of my favorite movies, She's the Man. It's the answer to the question: "What do you do when you've dressed up as your twin brother and are trying to fit into his world, but your roommates think you're lame." It's really quite helpful.

Marriage is a Battlefield




One battle we fight almost every day begins when we hear tiny toes creep into our bedroom. The kids pull out all the stops to find the weak link who will get out of bed first. The parent who can pretend to be asleep the longest wins.
