“If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what happens if you strap toast on the back of a cat and drop it?” — Stephen Wright
How to be Smarter: Don’t date boys that make a huge mess at the sugar/milk station at Starbucks and don’t clean it up themselves. People that make huge messes and expect someone else to clean it up, both at sugar/milk stations and in life, are to be avoided.
How to be Prettier: Polka dots + Poodles + Sale Price = Best Light Fixture Ever.
How to be (less) Awkward: Email annoyances to try to avoid.

SO TRUE about the milk/sugar counter. You don’t want to be dating someone you always have to clean up after! The little things are signs of the big things….
I love the tip about e-mail annoyances to avoid. I have been pining for an iPhone forever and get a little annoyed every time a friend ends an e-mail that way.
I’ve been going back and forth with how I feel about “Cheers” and “Best” as sign-offs as well!
Love your site, thanks for the great “awkward” today
I love the quote!
hahaha – smarter is very much on target – avoid those that expect you to clean up after them!!
i love the first tip. as a starbucks employee, i sometimes watch to see who is the big jerk leaving all the milk spills and who actually goes so far as to clean it all up with the napkins. its actually pretty interesting….
