Women are from Earth and Men are from Pluto, which isn’t even a planet.

Can I just say that men are clueless sometimes, most the time, all the f$%#ing time. I just got into an argument with my BFF over the fact that we were having a discussion about a certain someone else (female) and then she called. He proceeded to throw me under the bus and tell this girl we were talking about her. Now please know we weren’t talking anything bad but it was the point. I was like how stupid are you. Why would you have a conversation…

“You can’t have everything. Where would you put it?” Stephen Wright

I am sure faced with that challenge I could find somewhere to put it. I mean really…couldn’t you?? This quote makes me think about this weekend when I went to Macy’s and found a pair of jeans that looked incredible on me. Yet they were $150.00 and although I wanted them badly, I couldn’t justify spending that much even if they did make me look fantastic.…

I haven’t yet decided if I’m freaked out by this or excited. I have a lot financially riding on this (hence the freaked out part) but surely all my friends… Continue
