I'm your friend!

This is my favorite Maxine quote! I can SOOOO relate to her! and if you're a friend I'm sure you can too!

Would you want a friend who never talks back, enthusiastically digs into whatever leftovers you're serving, and doesn't look better than you in the same outfit? Yes? Well, then you don't want me!!

Joke aside, I want to use this blog as I would if I was writing my own advice column. It will give me a chance to say in writing what I usually think or say under my breath (just like Maxine).

I don't know if you are ready for this... You think you're crabby? You think you're short fuse? Take this quiz (that I made up!) if you want to find out. I'll tell you!


1. You're shopping with a friend, the first thing she does is:
a) Walk in the opposite direction you're going.
b) Stand behind you, looking away, while you give crap to the clerck.
c) Ask you where you want to go next, so she can tell the clerck to leave you alone before you show up.

2. You tell a friend you're going out, she tells you:
a) "You should avoid crowds".
b) "Are you sure you wouldn't rather stay home instead?".
c) "I'll be home this weekend if you need me to post bail".

3. Finish this phrase: I'm sorry...
a) I didn't think you spoke French/English.
b) you didn't move out of my way fast enough.
c) stop wasting my time, I can scream louder than you.

Scoring:
All "a": You're crabby, but you don't need medication yet.
All "b": You're not the most patient one around, quite the "short-fuse".
All "c": Better see your doctor, you might need some pills! You're just like me!

So now you know! By the way, thanks to my friend Martine and my husband for having been by my side and inspiring me this little test. How many lives you've saved we'll never know!
