attention all men

so i saw this on michelle's blog && i had to steal it!! it is so true and made me laugh so hard!! if only all men really understood all of this (:

Words Women Use & What They Really Mean:

Fine - This is the word women use to end an argument when they feel they are right you need to shut up. Never use "Fine" to describe how a woman looks- this will cause you to have one of those arguments.

Five Minutes - This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out the rubbish, so it's an even trade.

Nothing - This means "something", and you should be on your toes. "Nothing" is usually used to describe the feeling a women has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards. "Nothing" usually signifies an argument that will last "Five Minutes" and end with "Fine".

Go Ahead (With Raised Eyebrows) - This is a dare. One that will result in a woman getting upset over "Nothing" and will end with the word "Fine".

Go Ahead (Neutral Expression) - This means "I give up" or "do what you want because I don't care". You will get a "Raised Eyebrow Go Ahead" in just a few minutes, followed by "Nothing" and "Fine" and she will talk to you in about "Five Minutes" when she cools off.

Loud Sigh - This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she things you are an idiot at the moment, and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing".

Soft Sigh - Again, not a word, but a non-verbal statement. "Soft Sighs" mean that she is content. Your best bet is to not move or breathe, and she will stay content.

That's Okay - This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before paying you back for whatever it is that you have done. "That's Okay" is often used with the word "Fine" and in conjunction with a "Raised Eyebrow".

Please Do - This is not a statement, it is an offer. A woman is giving you the chance to come up with whatever excuse or reason you have for doing whatever it is that you have done. You have a fair chance with the truth, so be careful and you shouldn't get a "That's Okay".

Thanks - A woman is thanking you. Do not faint. Just say you're welcome.

Thanks A Lot - This is much different from "Thanks". A woman will say, "Thanks A Lot" when she is really ticked off at you. It signifies that you have offended her in some callous way, and will be followed by the "Loud Sigh". Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the "Loud Sigh", and she will only tell you "Nothing".

Don't worry about it, I got it - Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "what's wrong" – for the woman's response "Nothing."

I'll drive - this either means she is questioning your manhood, or she is (rightly) scared to death of your Richard Petty impersonation.

Sure, you can buy that - Refer to "That's Okay."

Come here - You are a puppy.

You never listen - It means you never listen. Prepare for the "Loud sigh."

Whatever - Is a women's way of saying "%@&* YOU!"

Today, I came across a link of my facebook page and it just showed a little girl smiling with a short little title, but the words brain cancer stuck out, so I clicked. I am so glad that I did. Here is the article:

When 6-year-old Elena Desserich was diagnosed with brain cancer, she began hiding hundreds of little love notes around the house for her parents to find after she was gone. Here’s the story:

Just before her sixth birthday, Elena Desserich (right) was diagnosed with brain cancer and given 135 days to live. She lived 255 days, passing away in 2007. After her death, Elena’s parents, Brooke and Keith, found hundreds of notes from Elena hidden around the house — in between CD cases, between bookshelves, in dresser drawers, in backpacks….

"It just felt like a little hug from her, like she was telling us she was looking over us"

Here are some of the notes:

What's sad is that if you click on the link and then scroll down, people post comments. I could not believe the types of comments people wrote. Why are people so mean? It really reminds me that there is not much good in people. Maybe the good is only in the children. But, my question is, when do you stop being thoughtful and loving and turn into a heartless disbeliever in anything?
