Today’s Southernism focuses on Unattractiveness. I have heard many sayings throughout the years but my favorite has to be:
“He’s so ugly, his Mama took him everywhere so she wouldn’t have to kiss him good-bye.”
That folks is pretty daw-gone ugly.
It is FRIDAY!!! We are supposed to go to the circus tonight…however they are also calling for a snow storm. Yeah, a snow storm that looks like it will only hit the deep South. How insanely crazy is that? And they are saying that we may get anywhere from 2-5 inches of snow. That means that there will be no milk or bread left within a thousand mile radius and everything will be shut down for days. We don’t do snow well at all.
I hope that you each have a FABULOUS weekend…mine is going to be busy and exciting. Tell you all about it later!

Todays Southernism is all about wishful thinking. My Dad used to use this one on us constantly and you will hear it often here in the South.
“Wish in one hand, spit in the other, and see which one gets full faster”
Meaning that action will get more results than dreaming.
An example: I wish all day long I could find the perfect weight loss diet that had instant results and was easy. But the reality of it is that until I get off my rump and move more, eat less and live healthier…it just ain’t gonna happen.
So, quit wishing and start spittin…you will get there a whole lot quicker!

The Post-It Place is proud to announce that there will be a new segment on Wednesdays. This segment will be brought to you by that adorable niece of mine that I call College Kid. She is hip, she is fashionable, she is fun and she is adorable. I think after you all meet her you will agree and learn to love her as much as I do. So…without further ado…here is Steph with today’s Wednesday Wisdom post:
Soooo….one morning I was eating my cereal and it was pretty average (for all you MLIA fans out there) and for those of you who don’t know what MLIA is, its “My Life Is Average.com” People post random things on there all the time that happen to them. Just average things and usually they are pretty hilarious if I do say so myself. Anyways…eating my cereal. I poured my cereal into the bowl that said my name real cute in the bottom and it has a picture of a clown. Don’t be hatin’. I like that bowl. Got it when I was like 7 but still….it’s a keeper. Anywho… so I’m pouring my cereal. Dooo do do do doooo….. pour the milk….. and BAM! That was one beautiful bowl of cheerios. Then I got to thinking. Hmm…. Milk. I wonder who ever decided “Hey, I wonder who the first person was to look at a cow and say, I think I’ll squeeze those dangly things and drink whatever comes out.” This my friends is a wonderful and disgusting thought to ponder. Sick freaks out there I tell ya. Better watch your back. So then I posted this on my facebook status (because that’s what all the cool kids do and I thought I was pretty clever/funny). My friend brought up the idea of lobster along with this whole milk fiasco. I mean seriously, who saw a lobster and said “you see the huge red cockroach in the ocean? I’m gonna Throw it in hot water and eat its butt”!!! Maybe we should start thinking about these things more often. Anyway, my cereal was delish. I ate it all and drank the milk too (trying not too think too much about the creeper who did this first) which revealed my name and the clown smiling at me again. I guess I made a happy plate like all the cheesy mom’s tell their kids. (…bowl actually in my case. But you get the point). Have a Happy Wednesday and I will catch ya next week. TaTa!

Have you ever watched that show? It is pretty interesting. They go through the history and how different things are made. Several days ago, I learned how Twins are made and thought I would share it with you. It is actually very simple once you learn the “real” way. Here, let me show you:
Yeah, I got a chuckle out of it too…so, I just had to share.
