My New Favorite Things

When the dog bites, when the bees sting, when I'm feeling sad...listed below are a few things Julie Andrews mistakenly forgot to mention in The Sound of Music.

1. Paint.net- A free downloadable photo editing software. It is basically the cheap person's PhotoShop. It is a necessity for those of you that regularly photograph babies that have a tendency to vomit right as the flash is going off. You can turn this:
into this:


2. Falsely accusing people of random acts. This only works on people that generally like you and understand your sense of humor, otherwise it has a tendency to backfire. Example: Receptionist is sitting calmly at her desk, and I walk up and say "I'm hurrying! Geez, stop screaming at me!" Example 2: Husband says "I'm so glad you're home from work." (Mine rarely says that, so this is a hypothetical situation.) You respond with "Well, somebody has his mind in the gutter today!"

3. Funny websites that I have just recently discovered:

* http://www.regretsy.com/- Actual items listed on the very popular Etsy.com that are just plain funny. (If you are not aware, Etsy is an online marketplace where people sell crafts and handmade items.) WARNING: There are a lot of anatomy references and "F" words, but if you can overlook them, the rest is humorous.

* http://www.unnecessaryquotes.com/- The "Blog" of "Unnecessary" Quotation Marks.

* http://www.passiveaggressivenotes.com/- We all know "those" people.

Oldies but still goodies:

*http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com

*www.peopleofwalmart.com

*www.apostropheabuse.com

3. Elephant Jokes: Q. Why are elephants large, gray, and wrinkled?A. Because if they were small, white, and smooth, they would be Asprin.

There are more than 3 things in this world that make me happy, but I only have so much time. I'm only one woman. And I have to leave you wanting more.

Until tomorrow, friends.
You're welcome.
