Life Lessons

1.  Do not smash your head on the dryer door.  It will make you cry.

2.  If the TSA officer asks, "Are those shoes?" don't think she is asking because she thinks they are cute [which they are] and respond, "Yes!  They're Tom's!"  She's asking because you went through the metal detector with them on and will make you go back through security.  [Also, your husband will laugh at you for months and months]

3.  When you say, "I hate getting new phones and having to get used to them" it makes you sound like an old person.  Even if they do have all sorts of new fangled buttons, commands, and make it impossible to find your text messages....

4.  If your father-in-law's motto is "the project is not complete until you bleed on it", have band-aids and first aid supplies ready when your husband works on projects.  It turns out that motto can be genetic.  [Stuff on our Etsy site, however, is guaranteed blood-free]

5.  Don't let your husband watch emotionally charged dog food/ insurance commercials on his own.  A lot of dog-cuddling will ensue.

[SIDE NOTE: Here's the top two Sean tear-inducing dog commercials in recent memory.  This excludes ALL animal shelter commercials playing songs about angels.]

1) Play.  It's Good For You.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNUdeXKd6QU&feature=relmfu
2) Travel Insurance.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lk2B8988ws0
