I don't like when there's too much conversation because I'm shy and it makes me uncomfortable.
I don't want to push the envelope. Let the envelope stay in the middle of the table. I'll just make you laugh.
I read recipes the same way I read science fiction. I get to the end and say to myself "well, that's not going to happen
I hate learning through experience. Just once I'd like to learn something because someone was nice enough to tell me in advance.
Men like cars, women like clothes. Women only like cars because they take them to clothes.
It takes six months to get into shape and two weeks to get out of shape. Once you know this you can stop being angry about other things in life and only be angry about this.
Men do not like to admit to even momentary imperfection. My husband forgot the code to turn off the alarm. When the police came, he wouldn't admit he'd forgotten the code... he turned himself in.
Buying something on sale is a very special feeling. In fact, the less I pay for something, the more it is worth to me. I have a dress that I paid so little for that I am afraid to wear it. I could spill something on it, and then how would I replace it for that amount of money?
I rationalize shop. I buy a dress because I need change for gum.
My mother is such a lousy cook that Thanksgiving at her house is a time of sorrow.
I never panic when I get lost. I just change where it is I want to go.
Life is tough enough without having someone kick you from the inside.
I was a ballerina. I had to quit after I injured a groin muscle. It wasn't mine...
I have too many credit cards. You know what happened? Someone stole one and I didn't notice. I noticed when I got that bill. Whoa! It was so much less! I'm letting him keep it. I'm saving money!
