Random Advice

Some things I learned the hard way:

·    No matter how angry you get do not go out into 18 inches of snow in your night gown.

·    Put your keys in the same place every time, every day.

·    The tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick sound that your car is making is a cry for help.  It will not get better and your car cannot walk it off.

·    Procrastination is not your friend.  Whatever it is, stop reading this, and do it now.

·    Do not use the microwave as a timer.

·    Read and reread your texts and emails before you send them.

·    Store brand feminine products = disaster (and that is a BEST case scenario).  No exceptions.

·    Cheap pantyhose always runs on the first wear.  I think it is the law.  Spend the extra buck and watch your nails and put lotion on your heels.

·    You don’t have as many friends as you think you do.  Tell people that you need help moving this Saturday.  The ones that show up are your real friends.

·    It takes 70-80 seconds to pop a mini bag of microwave popcorn in the small microwave in your office break room.  Trust me.

Here’s the thing:  Someone once said a smart person learns from their own mistakes.  A wise person learns from someone else’s.
