*groan*.
anyway, was clearing up my over-limit mailbox and decided to chuck out or archive some of the important emails when i chanced upon one from pooh:
What Women Say
1. "Fine" - This is a word women use to end an argument when they're right and you need to shut up!
2. "5 minutes" - If she's getting dressed, this means half an hour. It is 5 mins if you have just been given 5 more mins to watch the game before helping around the house.
3. "Nothing" - This is the calm before the storm. This means 'something' and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'nothing' usually end in 'fine'.
4. "Go head" - This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.
5. Loud sigh - This is not actually a word, but a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by man. A loud sigh means she thinks you're an idiot and wonders why she's wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over 'nothing'.
6. "That's okay" - This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man. "That's OK" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7. "Thanks" - A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say you're welcome.
8. "Whatever" - It's a woman's way of saying "%!#* you!"

i couldn't help but laugh. how very, very, very true - especially nos. 3,5,8. for me, at least. :P
then i saw another email entitled "If woman controlled the world!..." (courtesy of pooh again) which featured really, uh, absurd and sarcastic but realistic photos depicting special arrangements and inventions for women only:
there were loads more light-hearted emails which i'd to sadly delete to clear my mailbox. but this little finger exercise is exactly what i need. a little "pick-me-up moment" is necessary, especially after last week's events.
