Survival Guide for todays life-style

Survival Tips 101 (ok, make that 10)

These are the things you should absolutely NEVER leave home without.

  1. Clean underwear, because you just never know…..
  2. Common sense. Look at how many people are running around without it. Do you really want to be one of them?
  3. A sense of humor. Refer back to item number 2. You’re going to need one.
  4. Wit, it’s never a good idea to be unarmed.
  5. Imagination. This is invaluable for those times when waiting is inevitable… like in traffic when you have to pee. It’s a great form of distraction; just don’t picture a lake….
  6. A stick of gum. It can be a marvelous tool. You can use it to freshen your breath when you have consumed too much coffee trying to stay awake in yet another drawn out meeting with no point, you can use it to hold a piece of paper to your rear view mirror when you find your last post-it note has already been used and you need to remember an important memo (or directions! If you’re like me and you tend to get lost easy), and last but not least you can stick it to the seat of some poor unsuspecting fool from tip number 2! Another great diversion from the boredom of day to day living.
  7. Post-it notes….it keeps you from having to scrape gum off your rear view mirror…
  8. Sarcasm, cleverly disguised as interest. This works great when combined with the tip number 4.
  9. Bottled water, aside from looking smart and keeping hydrated; if you fail to use your imagination as described in tip number 5 you can always say you spilled…..but that’s stretching it….
  10. Clean underwear, because as you read tip number 9…..you just never know….

I hope you enjoyed this survival guide! If it gave you pause to smile for even just a moment then you are already fully armed with everything you need, because laughter truly is the best medicine!
