Nine Plus Four Equals Thirteen Thursday

For Men, Nine Words Women Use

1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don’t Do IT!

5) Loud Sigh: This is not actually a word, but is a non verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6) That’s Okay. This is one of the most dangerous statements women can make to a man. That’s okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question or faint. Just say you’re welcome. (I want to add in a clause here – This is true unless she says ‘Thanks a lot’ – that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say ‘you’re welcome’ – that will bring on a ‘whatever’.)

8) Whatever: Is a woman’s way of saying F- You!

9) Don’t worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing herself. This will later result in a man asking “What’s wrong?” For the woman’s response, refer to #3.

Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology. .


A squillion years ago Mickey gave this awesome award to mom. But mom was having major brain issues and couldn't get her act together enough to post it, until tonight.



Mom would like to give this to Coco, and Charlie and Ollie, because these are both new, but really cool blogs with really cool pugs.

This was given to mom by Ladypug Mugs and by Pug and Bugg.



This lovely award is created by Crystal @ Memoirs of a Mommy in honor of Noah and the donor of his sweet little heart who ENCOURAGES us to SHARE THE LOVE ! Thanks Crystal! [Click on Memoirs of a Mommy to learn and read this special love story!] The rules for this award are to pass it along to some people whose blogs you love. They make you laugh, smile, leave encouraging comments on your blog. You would like to share some love with them because they have uplifted, inspired, encouraged or prayed for you. Please include this paragraph with the link to Memoirs of a Mommy so that everyone knows where this award originated from.
Mom would like to give it to Auntie, and Melissa and Emmitt. Mom wants to give it to these two people because Melissa and her sister do a lot of things together, and they remind mom of her and Auntie, whom mom loves an awful lot. Mom thinks you need to have people you love an awful lot in your life. Mom is lucky she has Auntie. And mom knows Melissa is lucky because she has Melanie.

I was not a finalist on Project Dogway, but I had a lot of fun competing, and I got this awesome badge for doing so. I did win one contest, so I am very happy that I did well.

As for the thirteenth thing, well... Six more days and the election is Over! Woo Hoo! Go VOTE!

ROXY!!! LUCKY!!! I missed you! Thanks for comin' by today, I sure appreciate it.

Luckily, I don't hear many of the words on your list at my house. They're mostly directed at menbeans and mine is NEVER home..or at least almost never. And mom would NEVER talk to me that way 'cause I'm perfect!

Hi, PlusOne!
