Let’s keep it short and bittersweet… kind of like the cocktail I had at 5 o’clock.

  1. Bacne.Take care of your craters before slipping into a halter. Thx.
  2. Burnt popcorn. (To be honest, I don’t like popcorn at all).
  3. Open toed shoes are a privilege.  If you insist on wearing them, please make sure your toes are presentable.
  4. San Francisco’s weather.
  5. Melodrama.
  6. The Real Housewives of New Jersey.  This is a grown up Jersey Shore and it’s gotta go. (Ya hear that, Bravo?)
  7. Dirty grout.
  8. The smell of laundry that’s been left in the washer too long.
  9. High waisted jeans. Everyone looks like an a-hole in them.  No one’s vajay and entire female reproductive system needs to be accentuated to that degree.
  10. People who will not, no matter how hard I stomp, huff, and/or puff get out of the middle of the sidewalk. MOVE.

Have an absolutely fantastic weekend.  It’s calling for rain here in SF. Mazel.

The List Volume XLV

This week the list is dedicated to all you men out there.  At times, I am utterly appalled by your behavior and wonder why we women haven’t boycotted you altogether.

So gentlemen, read carefully.  Ladies, please feel free to print this sucker out and affix it to any and all men’s bathroom doors.

  1. Money can’t buy you love.  Yes, it’s true.  Girls love gifts.  And while this may work for a little while, there will come a time when you need to pony up and show us what you’re made of.  A new pair of Louboutins for every you time you $*%* up will fill our closets, not our hearts. (Sidenote: bragging about your cash is vulgar.  It doesn’t impress us -at least not the nice girls- it just makes us think you’re insecure).
  2. Your grooming habits and products should not be more complex nor should they take up the space of mine.  A little “manscaping” is one thing. Highlighted hair, waxed brows, and manzilians aren’t things that I want to have in common with you.  If I liked girls, I’d date Ellen Degeneres.
  3. Man boobs.  Never, ever should your breasts resemble your lady friend’s.  If you happen to be one of those gentlemen who grew mammaries overnight, at least cover them up by not wearing a silky shirt that emphasizes your newly swollen teets.  If you happen to pass by the mirror and turn yourself on with the tittays you see, it’s time to hit the gym.
  4. Pushing women out of the way to get on the subway/train, front of the line, etc. first.  Who are you?  Did you not have a mother?  Have a little bit of class.  Forget what ya heard, chivalry is not dead.
  5. Arnold Schwarzenegger.  You, my friend, have now joined the ranks of Jesse James and Tiger Woods.  Congrats.  Oh, and by the way, Jesse – all men do not cheat.
  6. Cat calls.  Um, how’s your ROI been on those?  Remember this little experiment?
  7. Tank tops.  They aren’t meant for you.  I don’t care if you are some cutie patootie with nice triceps.  You still have armpit hair.  And furthermore, by you wearing that tank top, you’re sending the message to other men (probably the ones who have no business wearing one) that it is, in fact, fine to flaunt the fat.
  8. Belching, farting, scratching.  We get it.  These things happen.  The body must function as it will– not at its will.  Thing is- we don’t need to know you do it.  Just like women never poop.  Some secrets are meant to be kept.
  9. Bromances.  It’s nice to have friends.  We love our girls’ nights too.  However, dating (aka taking care of) one guy is hard enough.  Don’t make me babysit your bestie too.
  10. “No” means “no.” This may be a hard pill to swallow, but sometimes… we’re just not interested.  Calling us a “bitch” or “fat heifer” just cause we shot you down isn’t going to get you very far.  All it does is solidify what a douchebag you are.

For the list this week, I thought I’d really throw you for a loop.  Not only because I’m doing it on a Sunday (to start off the week) but also because I found that I have far too much to be happy about to complain this week.  It’s so much easier to find the negative than the positive, so I figured I’d practice being positive.

  1. Trees covered in flowers.  The branches so heavy with flowers that they look like they might break at any moment.
  2. Perfectly executed surprise birthday parties.
  3. Being greeted by these guys upon arrival home everyday:
  4. Sun showers.
  5. Fuzzy slippers and perfectly polished toes. 
  6. Heeeeey cutie.  My mom has been harassing me to stock my home with these sweet (and healthy) treats for a while now.  
  7. The color of the sky just before sunset at the beach.  Can never be recreated by man.
  8. The unthinkable has happened.  But I’m a woman who can admit when she’s wrong.  You know how strongly I felt about my Blackberry, but I will never go back…
  9. Speaking of iPhones… Let’s talk about WhatsApp.  Never have I been so thrilled about technology.  This little “app” allows me to talk to 3 of my favorite gals all in one place at the same time.
  10. Sweet, sweet baby boy Blake- born 5/14/11.  Welcome, little man! (Don’t break too many hearts).

The List Volume XLIII

This week’s list is a compilation from coast to coast.  I’ve apparently been too busy to be annoyed, but thankfully, I got a little help from my friends- and they’re very annoyed.  Here are a few things that annoyed some of my besties this week (and a couple that annoyed me too):

  1. The people who stand outside of stores to try and lure you in.  Um, if I needed to come in there, I would.  This also goes along with the people who hand out flyers too.  I do not want your flyer. Stop it.
  2. Motorcycle/biker arm signals.  I know you know what it means… but we don’t.  Try a blinker. 
  3. People who “fake wash” their hands in the bathroom so you won’t think they’re scummy.  With all the effort you put into pretending… you could have just lathered up.
  4. Three words: Failure To Launch.  It’s time to be a big girl/boy.  Stow away your stuffed animals and get a grown up job.
  5. People who like to play the “victim.”  Shut. Up. and do something about it.
  6. Having things “taken” from your shopping cart on RueLaLa.  Um, I was going to buy that.
  7. Girls who get angry when you come up to the mirror to reapply your lipgloss/fix your hair/etc. in the bathroom.  Oh, I’m sorry… is this your mirror? 
  8. Speaking of hair: Touching your hair in public.  Like, I’m not talking a little twirl of the hair while flirting.  I mean a full on coif at the dinner table or perhaps flat ironing your hair on public transportation… yeah, I’m talking to you girl on the CalTrain…
  9. Public overshare.  This includes but is not limited to: Facebook break ups/make ups, Twitter lists of what you ate today, YouTube sob stories, DailyBooth risque photos.  Let’s use social media for good, not evil.
  10. People who feed their children fast food.  I don’t mean for a “treat” from time to time.  I’m talking about when it’s the rule rather than the exception.

Hey universe?  Stop upsetting my friends.  I need them sane and happy. Thanks!

xx,

The List Volume XLII

A friend of mine who also just recently left the greatest city on Earth (New York) and I were discussing the stupidity that we encounter on a daily basis.  It became clear to both of us that it doesn’t matter which side of the globe you’re on… there’s always enough material for “the list.”

  1. People who were hating on the Royal Wedding and/or Kate Middelton’s dress(es).  I mean, come on. Have you not one romantic bone in your body? and re: her dress?  Smart girl, she’s not going to look back years from now and say, “Drat, I wish I hadn’t worn those silly puffed sleeves!”  She is going to be in history books, people. 
  2. At the same rate, people who were fully obsessed with the Royal Wedding to the point of taking off from work.  I love a good fairytale, but we do live in America (and there is such a thing as DVR).
  3. Hey aspiring talent: Taylor Swift isn’t the greatest singer and her songs all sound the same, but she’s pretty. You’re not.
  4. Family decals on vehicles. Totally unnecessary.
  5. People who insist on leaving those sexy bluetooth earpieces in long after the phone call is over.
  6. Five hour delivery windows.  Especially when they come fifteen minutes before the window is over.
  7. Restaurants that serve pizza, tacos, kebabs, and sushi all under the same roof.  I don’t trust that.  Pick one thing and be good at it. 
  8. Coffee breath.
  9. Fluorescent lighting in dressing rooms.  That’s just cruel and can’t possibly help sales.
  10. Tornadoes.  Toto, we’re not in Kansas anymore.
