Wisdom from Teen Wolf... =)

So, yeah, I watched MTV's Teen Wolf this summer. Epically awesome because it was so terrible, but I couldn't help myself. I LOVED it! In the 2nd to last episode, Scott(Teen Wolf)'s mom gives Scott some love advice... and I still think it's genius, so I thought I'd post it.


"Have you told her how you feel?"
"She's knows."
"Come on, she knows. She knows? Listen, dumba$, I'm gonna let you in on a secret that most guys don't even have a clue about. Right? You ready? Women love words."
"Huh?"
"You need to tell her how you feel. Just say it. Say it again. Say it differently. Learn how to say it better. Learn how to sing it. You know, just, write it in a poem, in a letter, attached to flowers. Carve it in a tree. On the sidewalk with cement. Tattoo on your arm."
"Really?"
"No, not really a tattoo. Just, tell her the truth. Tell her anything and everything you want."


Women love words. Agree?

I guess it IS just me...

We all know the age old statement "Is it just me or...(insert funny/stupid/depressing statement here)". Example:
"Is it just me, or is it hot in here?"
"Is it just me, or are you sick of all the rain this year?"
"Is is just me, or is that an incredibly ugly baby?"
"Is it just me, or do you get annoyed by the sound of your voice?"
Well, I recently had a comical revelation that helped me answer this rhetorical question... It IS just me....

I recently had Taco Night with some friends. We made some tacos (naturally) and dessert, walked to the nearest Redbox, and watched Unstoppable. It was a fun night for all. The part of the night that made it great, and has left me thinking even 2 weeks later, was a brief conversation I had with my friends. It started out:
*Talking about fun nights out
*Talking about plans girls make
*Talking about "girl's nights"
*Talking about how girly girls are
*Talking about how funny girly things are
*Talking about how guys would never purposely have "guy's night"
And that was the point where I could no longer follow the conversation. I actually interjected, and said,
"Wait a second, I have tons of guy friends that do 'guy's nights.'"
My guy friends responded by telling me in various ways that guys will never turn down the chance to be around girls. If they do there's something wrong with them. I was like
"No seriously, I have way more guy friends than girl friends, and a whole bunch of my groups of guy friends do it. There have been a bunch of nights that I don't get invited to stuff because they decide to make it a guy's night."

There was a disturbing and embarrassing silence that followed that statement. Followed by muffled giggles. And it suddenly occurred to me. My guy friends are just telling me that because they don't want me around. Harsh reality, maybe, but honestly, it made me laugh more than anything. I don't take offense super easily, and still won't in the future. But the revelation of this statement really made me laugh. I don't know how I didn't see it sooner, but really it is true...

So, for the most part, guys want girls around all the time. Yes, this makes sense. But it seems that the statement "Is it just me, or do your guy friends have guy's nights ALL THE TIME" really IS just me... HA!
