Girl stuff
I got a couple of "women" things in my inbox this week and I thought they were worth sharing...
--------------------------
TOP TEN THINGS ONLY WOMEN UNDERSTAND
10. Cats' facial expressions.
9. The need for the same style of shoes in different colors.
8. Why bean sprouts aren't just weeds.
7. Fat clothes.
6. Taking a car trip without trying to beat your best time.
5. The difference between beige, ecru, cream, off-white, and eggshell.
4. Cutting your hair to make it grow.
3. Eyelash curlers.
2. The inaccuracy of every bathroom scale ever made.
AND, the Number One Number One thing only women understand:
1. OTHER WOMEN
---------------------------------
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...one old love she can imagine going back to...and one who reminds her how far she has come...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own...even if she never wants to or needs to...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...a youth she's content to leave behind..
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
..one friend who always makes her laugh...and one who lets her cry...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family..
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...a feeling of control over her destiny...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
...how to fall in love without losing herself...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
...how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship...and how to change a tire!!!!!!!
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
...when to try harder...and when to walk away...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
...that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
...that her childhood may not have been perfect...but it's over...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
...what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
