Woman

i was going to write a post about how my jeans have been fitting looser and what i think is the reason...aside from my time of the month bloat being gone and the massive amount of watermelon i have been consuming...i was also going to go in depth about how this man at trader joes called me beautiful...although i am still not sure if he was talking to me, his male partner or the frozen fish he held in his hand...ill just say he was talking about me and keep on steppin...i was also going to mention how i am fienin for king ding-a-ling to come dick me down and a couple other random things but that can wait...i got this e-mail from my girl netra today and even though i have read it before a long time ago i thought id share....enjoy...ill be back with my craziness later....

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

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 money

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
How to live alone
Even if She doesn't like it

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
Whom she can trust, Whom she can't,
And why she shouldn't Take it personally

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
Where to go
Be it to her best friend's kitchen table
Or a charming inn in the woods
When her soul needs soothing

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
What she can and can't accomplish
In a day...
A month...
And a year...
