If your car cost less than $30,000 you should not have a car alarm. Seriously! If I have to see another ugly ass Camry on the streets on NYC with its alarm blaring over and over I’m going to scream.
FYI: It’s called insurance for a reason.
FYI: No one wants to steal your ugly car.
I twittered a very important question a while back. “Emergency: how does one remove ‘man stains’ from my sofa?”
Turning to twitter seemed like the most logical thing to do since flipping the cushions was not an option…because frankly the other side of the cushion was even ‘manlier’.
I still need to dry clean my cushions covers (infact even more so now) but here were the Top 5 Home Remedies that followers either tweeted me or emailed me.**
Maybe sharing the knowledge will help someone in need…..it is national volunteer month!
“Just use a dry tooth brush and some Fabreeze and brush it off. Works every time!!”
“ some cold water mixed with a little dish soap and lemon.”
“ Try seltzer water and a tiny drip of vinegar”
“protein-based stains need cold water remember that.”
“No more spitting only swallowing and use a condom next time Plum.”
**FACT: I had just copied these into a document and stupidly not listed who told me what so my upmost apologizes for not being able to give credit where credit is due…but then again none of these worked for me so frankly screw you guys!
I did a post a few years back about things I had witnessed members of the other sex do or say and how unappealing it was.
People can say lots of things about New York City. But something someone said a few months ago stuck with me. “Living in NY makes anything you see or hear else where believable” and it’s true. Case in point I was in Baltimore a couple of weeks ago witnessing a man who was clearly high as a kite on heroin stumbling in a Rite Aid into displays…. and you think “why not, it happens” you think this because well you’ve lived in NY.
So I’m starting a new tradition here on the plum blog (much like SUNDAYS and FRIDAYS) the first Tuesday of every month I will list a few great snippets of random relationship related things I over hear in this great city. As we all know I’m not one for being plugged into a devise on the subway: I like to hear my surroundings. I also sometimes have a tendency to eavesdrop on people’s conversations.
I’ve been making notes of these snippets for years with the idea of “maybe I’ll write about that, or it will give me an idea” but most of them are just little tidbits of nothing, and therefore should just be listed. (Yes I know much like that website….but these are all relationship/dating/love or maybe just unbelievable-centric)
And thus the first monthly “TELLING TUSDAYS” post has arrived!
TELLING TUSDAYS: the breakup
1. Guy to girl on train (she has been whining about something I cant really make out) “ There will be no spitefulness I will just breakup with you and walk away. So stop it!”
2. Girl on subway “If I stop answering his phone calls and emails he’ll get the picture right?
3. Guy in elevator “I had to breakup with her, you should see her in the morning with no makeup and no jelly inserts in her bra”
4. Woman on cell phone “plastic wrapping my legs during sex was the last straw. We’re done.”
5. Two guys on street “ You guys broke up? Why she was great” “ She was super into aliens” “Like UFO aliens?” “ Yeah, like scary into grey aliens!”
Guy with Gold Chain: Did you know that the body is 2/3rds water?
Me: I did actually.
Guy in Gold Chain: I’m thirsty can I have a drink?
FYI: it’s Lent.
A season of soul-searching and repentance, a season for reflection and taking stock…… and whatever that all means.
But I was born and raised Catholic (I know shocking right…actually not really) and like every good catholic school girl I gave up stuff this year for Lent. I actually gave up 2 things.
I gave up chocolate (once again) but this year have already failed less then a week in when I ate a cookie (or 8)….but then again I wasn’t really in my natural state (if you know what I mean)
