Someday...

This past week has been far from perfect. In addition to a number of annoying events, I happened to have accidentally spilled my entire cup of coffee on my laptop... while I was using it. Of course. Needless to say... this week could've been better.

For this reason I ask: Have you ever been so annoyed with your life that you just needed a change? Something that'll spice up your life? Make it interesting, purposeful, and exciting? Creating a spontaneous adventure like buying a plane ticket to visit a new place for only a weekend. Signing up for Match.com just because you're so bored. Or even trying out for American Idol or Wipeout. Obviously a dream for most all of us. Or... buying a new puppy... just... because...

[wha-wha] No I didn't buy  haven't bought one.

I argue to my roommates It makes perfect sense for me to have a new little puppy. I'm an adult. I am loving. I am mature. I can handle responsibility. What else would they need?

Turns out I need to wait until I have some sort of financial security other than student loans. I suppose they are right. I mean, I did need some assistance with my breaks on my car... which literally quit working last month. I used my Xmas funds simply on my coffee spill.

Although a new, adorable, loving little puppy isn't in my life at this very moment... I will use Pinterest as my outlet for choosing my future pup. Here's what I'm thinking:










Last but certainly not least:

Someday pup... someday... you will be mine.

Okay... so I saw this on Facebook. I couldn't help myself but to share it with all of you. Give it a shot!
Apparently I am: Epic, Broken, & Funny

As I was typing that I found FUN. (and not in the same word as funny... that would be cheating)


What are the words that you find?

Stupid. Stupider.

The other day I saw the back of a company shirt that read:
Providing quality service since 10 years.
A company shirt. How embarrassing! Thanks to someone in an upper-level management position who didn't catch the error or didn't know the difference... oops???

After witnessing that poorly advertised company shirt I was motivated to dedicate an entire blog post to businesses that use poor grammar. And I will forever judge them.

"If YOUR single so am I" 
WetSeal
If you don't know what's wrong with this shirt... look it up. And feel embarrassed...

"Lets Go!"
Old Navy
Note: These t-shirts were designed for college teams. BAH! Kind of ironic.

"YOURSOCUTE" boots
"Have your girlfriends tell you 'Yoursocute' when you show up to your lunch date in these remarkable suede wedge heel boots." 
This is annoying for so many reasons. 
I hate that they forced 3 words together.
I hate how they advertise for them.
I hate that they put YOUR instead of YOU'RE
Even if it was You're so cute... it's still stupid.


"WELCOME FREE WIFE CONTIL BREAKFAST INDOOR POOL & HOT TUB..."
No... it's not the lack of commas that is noteworthy here. Free WIFE! HAHAHA!

Now seriously... this is so sad. It should be sent to Jay Leno... 

Although this last example doesn't have a grammatical error... it's still disappointing... just in general
"I'm too pretty to do homework so my brother has to do it for me." 
JC Penny
Yeah... because girls are there to look pretty and boys are there to be smart. This shirt makes me sick. 
This shirt clearly was designed to make it to the JC Penny floor in the early 80's but somehow got placed  in 2011... sick. Just blah.  


Here's why grammar matters:


Please note: although I find poor grammar amusing, please don't judge my poor grammar. We can judge:
Old Navy
WetSeal
Nine West
Days Inn
JC Penny

But don't judge me! That's fair! Thanks!
