Let me share a few with you.
- If you are planning a child's birthday party and you plan a wet weather plan, you will have to use the wet weather plan.
- If you give yourself plenty of time to get to the airport there will be a major traffic accident which will hold you up.
- If you are running late for the airport and rush screaming like a banshee to the front of the line crying, you plane will have been delayed by an hour. And you will look like a dick.
- If you order your groceries online and ask for a kilo of chicken breast, you will get a kilo of that gross processed sliced chicken luncheon meat.
- If you wear white pants you will forget tampons.
- You will die if you put your breakfast plate in the dishwasher every morning.
- The rain in Spain stays mainly on the plain, except it doesn't. It stays mainly over my suburb.
- You are damned if you do and you are damned if you don't. Particularly if you don't.
- If you are excited about a night out, it will be a stinker but if you do not plan these things in advance, you will have a great night out.
- Leave when you are having a good time. Never change venues.
- When someone tells you that getting an IUD put in does not hurt, slap then swiftly across the face for lying to you.
- Never assume anything.
- The traditional gift for lending an elderly Chinese lady your umbrella is a packed of no-frills trail mix.
- When your husband tells you he is going to Japan for a week, slap him swiftly across the face for lying to you before you point out that in fact he is going for 13 days, which is 2 weeks.
- Go with your gut instinct. Even if it is bloated from eating too much trail mix.
- Your bag WILL be the last out onto the carousel, if it comes out at all.
- When your new GP turns out to be a school dad from your kid's class and you have arrived for your yearly lady bits tune up, it is totally OK to cancel the appointment. He will not be offended.
- There is no preferred time to buy school shoes in January. Anytime is going to be horrendous.
- Ladies who fit school shoes are a humourless species.
- And finally, having watched some mates marriages fall by the way lately, women leave a marriage because they are unhappy. Men leave a marriage because they have met someone else.
Do you disagree with any of my theories?
Do you have one you could add?
