Dirty Little Secrets

Today is a rainy day..the perfect day to share dirty little secrets.

1) I sometimes keep blow drying my hair a few minutes after it is dry to get a few extra minutes of time alone in the bathroom.

2) My husband and I have been using the same roll on deodorant for about a month. I should probably buy another stick.

3)I have a slightly strange interest in Michael Alig and the "Club Kids."  I have never understood women who write letters to murderers in prison and end up marrying them; however, if I had to choose a prisoner to marry I would chose Michael Alig even though he is a murderer and gay.  (If you don't know the story ...Michael Alig was one of the ring leaders of a group of "club kids" in the 80s that were all sorts of fabulous and crazy in NYC.  One night while high on cat tranquilizers, he hacked up a friend and threw him in the Hudson river.  What a weirdo ...right? There is a movie with called Party Monster that is based on this story.)

4) I can't stand a few phrases.  In fact, I hate them so much when I hear them said I want to punch some one in the throat.  Here they are:

" Imagine....."  Example:   Person 1: "My kid had diarrhea all night long."  Person 2: "Imagine having two kids with diarrhea."   Person 1: "Man doing laundry for 6 people is tough."  Person 2: "Imagine doing laundry for 8 people."   Oh my gosh really?? REALLY? This isn't a contest. Shut it!! Shut...it.

"Must be nice."   Example: Person 1: "I think I am going to get a new car."   Person 2: "Must be nice."
Example: "I think I am going to go skiing this weekend."  Person 2: "Must be nice."   Really?  Seriously....it is nice.  And you are annoying.

"Real woman."  Example:  Sign on pinterest.....reads something like "Men like REAL women."  or Example 2: Advertisement: "Clothes for REAL women."   Lets not use the word REAL to differentiate between body types.   It is irritating.  I have breasts and a real vagina.  It is not nice to insinuate I am not a REAL woman because I don't have as many curves or because I wear a different size.  I mean we are all real women, we are just all different.  We should appreciate each others body types and differences and not build up others by cutting a different group down.

5) I had to stop watching the Real Housewives series because I got so caught up in their drama I was super close to calling someone a prostitution whore and flipping tables.

I've said too much....
