Think Out Side Of The Box

"Hey do you want to go out?"-Boy "Yeah! What did you have in mind?"-Girl "How about a dinner and a movie?"-Boy

How incredibly lame and overly expected. Its always great to go see the newest flick, but why not change it up and do something completely out of the box.

• If you just have to see that flick, why not go to a Drive In? Summer is normally the best time to do this. The weather is perfect, you can pretty much pack your own dinner, popcorn, candy, or what ever you feel like eating. In the fall bring along your favorite pillow and blanket so you are in perfect comfort in your own car, and snuggle up!
• Garden walks. Most cities have extremely pretty gardens year around. Walking can be a very relaxing way to catch up on things that are going on in each of your lives. Or if this is a first date, it is a great public yet intimate way to get to know each other.
• Comedy Clubs are a great escape from the mundane everyday life. They say that laughing will help you live longer! Have some great laughs and enjoy each others company.
• Mini-Golfing/Arcades is a fun way to beable to be out year around. Have fun goofing off and making each other miss what you are trying to aim for, or mess up playing arcade games, see who can get the most arcade tickets. Then afterwards most arcade places have ice cream parlors in them. Top your night off by a double ice cream cone of your favorite flavor.

Just a few out of the box fun things do to on a date night with that special someone.

4 Things Men Should Not Do In The Morning

Its is some time in the AM and your alarm starts buzzing. You hit snooze and start waking up, trying to motivated yourself to get out of bed.

If you are anything like me right after you step out of bed you are groggy, slow, unresponsive, and alittle bit cranky. Especially with no coffee.

Men beware when we are like this in the morning. Here are some things you can do, so you will not get snapped at.

1- Do not ask a bunch of stupid questions. " Why are you getting up already?" It is because we have to get up to go to work, or mainly the fact that we are awake and want to get up. "What are you doing?" What does it look like, do you really have to ask us what we are doing? My all time favorite "Where is MY breakfast?" First of all I rarely eat breakfast, when I do get up earlier so I can eat, don't ask me where yours is. Get up and eat if your hungry, you are a big boy and can make yourself something.

2- Do not get in our way. When we are trying to get ready for the day, most of us have a routine we go threw in the morning. If you get in the way it throws our whole routine off.

3- Moving our stuff is bad. When we go looking for something and we can not find it, it takes time away from what we should be doing rather then hunting down a brush or an article of clothing.

4-  If you have a drive way like mine and it is a single lane and you have parked behind your wife/girlfriend/partner, you better either have your car moved by the time we are ready to leave. Or be prepared to get you butt out of bed and move your car and get snapped at. When we have to leave we have to leave, and a couple of minutes can screw up the whole drive to work.

These are some of the easiest things for you to do as a man to keep your woman happy, and not snapping at you in the morning.

All in all, please just stay out of our way in the mornings.

Speaking Falsely

Here is a time old old question asked over and over again: Why lie?

There are many different types of lies; personal gain, getting out of or someone in to trouble, getting out of doing something, avoiding an argument or dispute, or trying not to disappoint someone. There are many more to name but these are the ones I see most.

Everyone does it, men and woman. Children know how to lie from day one, " Did you eat that cookie?" ... "No mommy", they do it so they do not disappoint there parents and so they can out of trouble.

Eve lied to Adam in the garden of Eden,I guess that would be human kinds first lie. It has never stopped, it is an on going rollercoaster tearing apart the relationships couples, family, friends, and coworkers have.

Lying can cause a snowball effect, you start with one tiny white lie, then you have to tell another one, then another one, then by the time you are done you have been caught in your "snowball". Rolling down the mountain side screaming at the top of your lungs wanting to get off this "ride" as the cliff is getting closer, until you have gone over the edge and plummeted to your "death".
When I say death, I am speaking about all of the relationship you have just ruined by getting so caught up in a lie that you, yourself was caught by the person you were lying to.

Lying does get you ahead in a sense, but it destroys your most precious relationships.

Lie :

A false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood; 

something intended or serving to convey a false impression; an inaccurate or false statement.
