Things men don't have to worry about...aka life is not fair
Have you ever noticed how easy the male life is? I have. Let see the obvious. They don't have periods and they don't have to be pregnant. Yeah right there = fucker heads to me!
However, other things they don't have to worry about. Some girls who are skinny won't get this, but most girls will. Men never have to worry about walking around in shorts and having the shorts hike up their thighs and make a nice little thigh sandwich out of your shorts.
Men totally don't understand your thighs rubbing together in the summer when you sport a bathing suit because they get to wear nice little board shorts.
Men totally don't understand what a pain in the ass shaving legs is. Not to mention remembering to shave under both arms so you don't come out looking half glamor and half hippie granola cruncher.
They really don't get hair. You know when you go to bed with wet hair and you wake up with that hair looking like you tied it in knots and then slicked half of it to your forehead and you suddenly developed cowlicks where you used to have a part. Men don't get that THAT DOESN'T LOOK NICE! Seriously there have been so many times where I've woken up fretting about my disaster of a hair do and my husband will say, "what, it looks fine." I want to scream THIS LOOKS FINE!!!!! NO THIS DOESN'T LOOK FINE!!! To any other girl this looks like crap. Any other girl would look at me and say, wow her hair is all kinds of fucked up. But men don't get that. Why. Why is it they are totally oblivious to hair styles?
On that same note, men totally don't get that women dress for other women not men. Know why? Because sorry dear but you soooo have no idea what really looks good on me! To you, jeans and a dirty shirt with two different colored shoes is fine, but to that girl over there I better be rolling in my finest duds or the shit talking will begin. Which leads to the fact that men really don't gossip. So not fair. How nice would it be to walk into a bar with all your friends and just sit down and drink? Noooo, when your a girl you have to walk in, freeze, do a full 360 with your eyes around the room, pick out every single person you hate then turn to your girlfriends and say, "did you see so and so is here," cross your arms and act totally un-phased, then check out the room again for all the competition, then walk over to the table where you enemy is and say hi and fake excited to see them, followed by walking up to the bar and making a scene out of ordering some stupid drinks and buying a round for your friends so everyone thinks you have money when you grab your Fendi wallet out of your Gucci purse and then of course get right on your cell phone and call some other friend and complain about everything that is happening and how you hate everyone there, and she is wearing that, and seriously I looooook so much better then everyone else. Seeeee why I say it would just be so much easier to be a guy and walk in and just drink. Uggg.
Not to mention men really don't understand going to the store and buying an entire shopping cart full of diet food and then getting home and declaring there is nothing to eat, then running to the gas station for chips and soda. Men just get the chips and soda the first time around, but we women can't do that because if we don't have the diet food in the house then we can't pretend to be on a diet when company comes over. Also having healthy food in the house is how we justify eating pasta covered in lard when we go out to dinner with people. This way we can say, "Oh I've been eating nothing but vegetables all week and I'm just so sick of dieting, I really deserve this," Meanwhile we all know she was home eating chips and candy. Men, they buy what they want, eat what they want and order what they want and they just don't get it!
We already discussed me not having periods, but since they don't have periods that means they don't understand how women NEED chocolate before their period. Or how we want to celebrate everything with chocolate, and eat chocolate when we are sad or mad or happy or bored, or its Tuesday. I mean really, how do men not get that Tuesday is a splendid excuse for a slice of chocolate cake?
Men also don't understand that just because you had ice cream after lunch it doesn't mean you don't want desert. How hard is it to get, women need desert 3 times a day!
Men also totally don't understand that to a girl, chips and salsa is a totally acceptable breakfast. Seriously have you ever noticed how men are all about eggs for breakfast and sandwich for lunch and steak for dinner and never ever can you mix those. Really, when was the last time you saw a guy consider pizza breakfast? Nope, its always eggs or cereal. Sigh. This means that when I wake up and devour chips and spicy nacho cheese, followed by four cookies for breakfast my husband thinks I'm out of my ever loving mind, me though, I totally don't understand fried eggs for breakfast!
Most men don't understand that women need a loofah, body wash, and a polishing ex foliating scrub, along with shaving cream, shampoo, conditioner, face wash, scrubbing face wash, and a foot scrubber to complete their shower. They also don't get that NO I CAN'T JUST BUY THIS ALL AT THE GROCERY STORE. Sigh. I need to go to five different stores to accumulate all of this. Men are all, bar of soap jumbo bottle of clearance shampoo, don't forget to wash my balls, and I'm done!
There is a ton more, but I'd like to ask you, what do the men in your life just not get?

100
I decided to redo my 100 list since my last one was written while I was very pregnant and emotional. Also this is a great way for my new readers to get to know me.
- I used to spend a lot of money, now I don't. I am very selective on my spending.
- This means that I used to think nothing of spending over a hundred dollars on jeans or a purse. Now, I look at anyone who does that and I kind of wonder what they are trying to prove.
- I own several Coach purses, I am now putting several on Craigs list because I no longer want to be associated with that kind of image.
- That means I've finally realized I am and will always be a jeans and tank top kinda girl who wears shoes with out laces and buys funky target purses.
- I am happier now that I went back to my roots instead of trying to be someone I'm not and impressing people I shouldn't have to impress. Back in the day I wore my moms old tie-dye shirts and jeans rather then fancy prissy shirts and leather boots. I'm happy to be back to my Vans
- I like to give credit where it is due. When I use someones recipe or I use their idea I always try and link to them, I like to do this to help the other people in the world get noticed. I'm also not to proud to admit when someone else helped me out with something or gave me ideas. In fact, 90% of everything I do or say I run by my mom or cousin first, and I always give them credit.
- I make it a point to ask people about their lives at least once a day with out mentioning whats going on in my own life.
- I've tried to learn to stop replying to everything someone says with stuff like, "oh me to," or "oh well I have a better story," I don't always succeed but I am trying so hard to make an effort.
- I really genuinely don't like being touched. Only about 5 people in my life really know and respect this
- I get more upset when I tell someone and they act like I'm not serious and hug me anyway
- I don't like acknowledging how I feel about hugs so if you don't know most of the time I will just allow you to hug me and scream on the inside.
- This is one reason I love my husband, he has learned to tell people to back off me when I'm not brave enough to do it
- I've been in a state of depression for almost 2 months. I can't figure out how to get out, but I think I appear as a functioning depressed person
- Last week I told my husband I wanted to go on medicine for this, but breast feeding is so important to me, I would rather be nutty for 15 months then not nurse my child
- I am passionate about breastfeeding, I realize I come across bold about this and piss people off and I just don't care. If you physically can't nurse fine, but if you can and you simply choose not to, and refuse to even try, it's safe to say I have some pretty bold statements going through my head about you.
- I am not sorry for this, I'm not sorry for a lot of who I am, I have to accept me and surround myself with people who are willing to accept that sometimes I'm just a shit head
- I can't eat avocados or olives, or anything with a pit for that matter.
- I just learned this which means I forget it weekly and eat something bad
- When I do this it hurts like a motherfucker and I wonder how I could forget. I forget again an hour later
- I can not cut chocolate from my life. I actually must consume at least one bite of chocolate a day or I might combust
- I hate plain water. Which is why giving up flavored water for lent has led me to drink massive amounts of tea
- All that caffeine does not make me any less tired
- My newborn sleeps more then my 2 year old. I don't understand this
- I really want to be funny but, I think I was born more dorky then funny
- The sunshine makes my dork level increase by about 400%
- I really want to have youtube video that is popular simply because of how geeky I am
- I'm not very smart, I finally made a couple new female friends and they live so far that I can't even afford to go visit them. Emery, Patty, Jen I'm talking to you. Please kindly move to Nevada mmmkay!
- I almost always look at the clock at 10:29 which is my birthday.
- I feel like a geek noticing this
- I am very uncomfortable around people who aren't one of the six closest people in my life, Lisa, Ginger, Katie, my husband and my mom and dad
- I am far more comfortable around men then women. That means I'd rather have my husbands friends over then most of my own.
- I want to play the drums sooooo bad
- I do play a mean set of air drums though
- I air drum the most to Offspring
- Offspring is my favorite band, I think some people think less of me for this
- I can only write in blue pen
- I prefer real pencils to mechanical pencils
- I get attached to objects meaning I get very angry if I find my pen on your desk and I didn't leave it there
- That means when my thieving husband steals waitresses pens because they "write nice" I give him hell every single time
- I have a phobia of restaurant glasses they oog me out
- Often I have a phobia of all plates and silverware too, as bad as it is for the environment I would rather use paper and plastic so I know that my germs are the only germs on them
- I STILL can not eat cereal since Ginger told me about the bugs in cereal. Even though I realize there is bugs in other food I have formed a mental roadblock for cereal and can not eat it
- I crave cereal every day
- If I was on Fear Factor and they offered me a million dollars to eat fish, totally normal cooked fish, I think I would go about happily being broke instead of eating fish!
- I like to pop my hips, like people pop their knuckles
- I don't paint my nails it looks weird when I see polish on my hands, I end up peeling it off
- My three month old just pooped on me
- I changed clothes and I still smell poop
- I like the way newborn poop smells
- Since I'm nursing Codi and I have the same scent of farts. I think this is funny
- I haven't told anyone that because I'm pretty sure you all think I've lost my mind now
- Curiosity gets the better of me an I have to look before I can flush
- The sound of bathroom fans makes me insane
- I hate cans that aren't built to stack with the bottom smaller then the top I always get mad and then refuse to stack those
- I use cloth bags at the grocery store
- I forget them 1 out of 5 shopping trips
- I now have so many paper bags I don't know where to store them
- I have never beat Mario one or three
- Those are the only games I've played mostly
- When I'm sick I don't like to drink water, it makes me throw up
- I drink milk with ice cream
- I drink milk with spaghetti
- I will not drink whole milk
- But I will put it in my oatmeal
- I always remember not to cuss when my kids AREN'T there
- When I was little my grandma taught me to walk in a straight line and cross my ankles like a lady
- Because I walked in a straight line guys used to say I shook my ass
- So did girls
- Girls hated me in school for all the wrong reasons
- They didn't even know about the actual reasons they should have hated me
- People reaquaint with me now and tell me that I am much nicer then they ever thought I would have been, they were too afraid to give me a chance before
- I love my eyes
- I think it is important to know how to smile for a picture
- Both my husband and I can do a perfect picture smile at any notice
- I think this is because we both had braces and we really earned that smile
- I made my dentist take my braces off early because I refused to start school with braces
- Kissing boys with rubber bands in your mouth is nearly impossible
- So is kissing your boyfriend right after having your wisdom teeth pulled
- I think mine were defective because I didn't have wisdom even before they pulled them out
- I write notes on my calender
- I lose them every time
- I am dying to see a picture of val and swistle
- My favorite sandwich consists of fresh white wonder bread, mayo and plastic cheese.
- I used to love hot dogs and bologna in my eggs
- I used to love eggs
- Now I only eat them hard boiled
- Or in cake
- Cake is good
- I prefer chocolate cake
- Do you have any cake?
- I can't bake for shit
- I can cook anything savory but baking cakes and cookies, thats a laugh
- I don't mind eating cookies
- Do you have any cookies?
- Girl scout cookies are my favorite
- I have heartburn
- My rolaids are too far away
- I wish I could be a better mom
- I wish I wasn't crazy
- Someday my goal is to accept me for me and have the rest of the world accept me too

BULLETS
- I wake up often during the night. Ever time I wake up during the night, and in the morning I wake up singing the fucking Backyardagins commercial. If you watch Noggin you know what I mean. The BOINGA SONG. Boinga, everything is boinga (pronounced boyn GA). Boinga is a stupid song to have stuck in your head. So now, every time I wake up I am up for at least 45 minutes trying to stop singing Boinga.
- Last night for a little variety I woke up singing a tune from Lazy Town.
- Starting your day singing children's songs is a great sign of the day to come.
- I also lay around in bed thinking of blogs. For instance last night I laid there for hours saying, self, you need to post about the fucking boinga so maybe the fucking boinga will go away. In my head I said it just like that.
- Do you know that every time I'm about to do something I take my glasses off. This includes read. So right now I go to staple some checks and I put my glasses on my head. When I eat they have to be off my face. It drives me nuts, I hate having them on but can't see with out em.
- It is VERY hard to work with a new born smiling at you
- Yes I call my three and a half month old son a newborn what you gonna do about it?
- When I stack papers the smallest one has to be on top. So earlier I was putting all the checks in a stack. Most are stapled to a larger piece of paper but two aren't. Those two have to be on top or I totally freak out.
- On the same note when I make a bank deposit all the large size checks have to be in back and the small ones in front. Then they have to be written on the deposit in the order of smallest check to largest checks. Checks that are taller then the large checks but less wide really piss me off and ruin my whole day because they have to go out of order.
- I'm eating lunch right now egg salad, and ever since my husband toasted his bread for an egg salad I have to toast mine. In fact egg salad on untoasted bread is just plain wrong now.
- I've chewed so much gum today in order to avoid over snacking that my tongue hurts from all the chewing.
- I've had about 7 cups of tea today and I think I've peed more then when I was pregnant.
- It is 43 degrees outside and I'm wearing flip flops simply becuase 43 degrees is warmer then 10 degrees and there is no visible snow which means it is flip flop weather in my eyes.
- I am done with my lunch break that means I have to stop typing now and go back to working. Adios suckers!

Q: What do you call a Filipino contortionist?
A: A Manila envelope!
there once was a mother who woke up to no crying babies because her husband had gotten up with them, fed them and got them ready for a day out so that mommy could sleep in, get a pedicure, massage and go shopping. then she would enjoy a nice gourmet meal, some good wine and fabulous chocolate dessert. then she'd take a nice bubble bath and go to bed....
get it?
that was the joke.
What's the difference between a drug dealer and a prostitute?
A prostitute can wash her crack and sell it again.
There was a lady who owned a parrot and the parrot spend her days on the balcony. However this parrot would curse out all the neighbors as they walked by the house. The lady was mortified and embarrassed by the parrot. SO she warned...
Lady: Listen Lola, I'm going to punish you for cursing at the neighbors.
The parrot kept going and cursing at everyone on a daily basis. Finally the lady got fed up and chewed up some gum and stuck it on the parrot's tushy. Since the parrot could not relieve herself the parrot's belly got bigger and bigger.
Lola: I promise not to say bad words anymore. Please take the gum out.
Lady: No! I warned you. You are going to have to behave.
Lola: Please! Please! I PROISE! I PROMISE!
Finally after 3 days the lady gave up and removed the gum. The parrot was thrilled and she was let back out on the balcony just as a pregnant lady walked by and she said:
Lola: Hey Lady tell you husband to remove the gum from your ass already!
What did the egg say to the boiling water?
No I can't get hard right now I just got laid!
A horse, a priest, a penguin walk into a bar... The bartender looks up and says,"What is this? Some kind of a joke?"
What do parsley and public hair have in common?
You push them both to the side and keep on eating!
What did one snowman say to the other snowman?
My balls are frozen.
jennifer: your cute!
There are these two muffins baking in the oven.
One muffin says to the other muffin: "Gob damn it's hot in here."
The other muffin looks at the first muffin in shock and exclaims "holy shit! It's a talking muffin!"
why did the avon lady walk funny?
cuz her lips-stick
A woman orders a chicken sandwhich and starts to choke.
People are running frantically, trying to figure out
what to do. Two homosexuals sitting in the corner wisper
to each other and run in front of the choking lady. One
strips out of his overalls, bends over butt naked in front
of his friend. His friend proceeds to lick the other's ass.
Upon seeing this, the lady vomits forcing the lodged food
from her throat. After making sure the lady is OK, the two
homosexuals return to their food.
One turns to the other and says,
"Wow, that hind-lick manuever really works!"
