sage wisdom thats not so wise.

i recently realized i should probably never be able to give advice. but in case you are a kindred spirit {where a life of mismatched socks, billions of muffins, lots of speeding tickets, a complete absence of money, embarrasment, and straight up procrastination is fine by you} here's my two cents. its wise-lessdom advice that you maybe shouldn't take.

abandon all responsibilities, grab a big gulp, and go to the park.

eat ice cream for dinner.

PROCRASTINATE!
{always}

bowl backwards. bowl with bumpers. bowl with the ramp thats meant for 5 year olds.

don't be afraid to spell words worng.

only take vitamins if they are the flintstone gummy ones.

sing through out the day. in your car. walking to class. on the bike at the gym.
"is she singing baby by justin beiber?"
"yes. yes she is."

use toothpaste as a makeshift acne spot creme.
{and when i say makeshift, i mean always/current shift}

eat peanut butter from the jar. spooned out with your finger.

roll the windows down and shout from your car. while driving. with no hands.
{i know, i know. you are wondering how could i possibly not have my license any more!}

don't brush your hair.
{let the wild rumpusness BE FREE!}

dream about dropping out of school and somehow being on jimmy fallon.
{for who knows what! first person to eat muffins on the moon? mmkay!}

drink a total of 5 cups of tea after 10 pm.
{sleep whaauuut?}

steal borrow the napkins from the cafeteria. along with the napkin holder.

watch modern family instead of taking out the trash.
Phil- "The iPad comes out on my actual birthday. It's like Steve Jobs and God got together to say, "we love you, Phil."

use self tanner when you are paler than than scary girl from the ring.
{and end up with hands oranger than oompa loompas}

when in doubt buy!
{unless its crocs, but especially buy if its a topsy turvy tomato garden- as seen on tv style!}

count a cherry icee as 3 servings a fruit,
{take that food pyramid}

  1. bahaha. i'm feeling really cool because both of us used the word "sage" in our titles today. coincidence? i think not. i think this means i might just be as cool as you. i must agree... life's just plain more enjoyable when you don't brush your hair.

  3. I'm the queen of procrastination and bad spelling. Exhibit A: I was considering waiting to leave a comment till next Friday. And I joined the spelling club in middle school for the free donuts they had every morning. they kicked me out.

  12. wow it's like we are kindred spirits for real. Here is my short list from this week:

    *Love Hello Kitty and be 29. Then get Hello Kitty tat on foot. Then realize all I own are flats which cover um... toes only basically so HK is in full view. And work in a professional environment. Go out and spend more money than the tat was on new shoes to hide the tat.

    *Get a small bowl, scoop of peanut butter, squeeze of honey and rice krispie treat cereal and mix. Then eat it off the spoon and call it dinner last night.

    *Mailed tax check on monday, but thought ahead to post-date it to actual pay day. Then realize I wrote the day before I got paid and overdraft the overdraft. Check account only on paydays and say wait... I didn't get paid yet. Then realze I did.

    *Ignore spell check in Word, Outlook, Facebook, Blogger etc. My mom just said I spelled the 'Olde English way' yes. go with that. Then actually send an important e-mail to big boss and mindlessly click 'ignore all' and realize I misspelled her name.

    *My office won a picnic basket of goodies. E-mailed big boss asking if I could have said basket (see above e-mail blunder) because I wanted to take a picnic on my lunch hour. That's not weird, right?

    *Run out of household cleaner and make a solution out of laundry detergent and water to clean counters/bathroom. (note: leaves things sticky)

  14. Thanks for the advice...but I feel like I already do all these things...(Modern family, tea, singing, procrastinating, seriously dreaming about dropping out of school, etc.)

  15. Wow I agree with so many of those!! Wait so did you get your license taken away?! I looove Modern Family, kiddie vitamins, and self tanner with awkward hand and feet that are all orange! That "when in doubt buy" is pretty much what I do but I'm trying to get better about it..well my husband is making me get better is the more truthful response.. Oh I'm going to make those bluberry muffins you posted a while back today:)
