This next statement may sound surprising. But it’s true.

Sometimes it’s just too big!

I could be speaking about a few things. Hair, gut, ass and serving size. Those things can definitely be found too big.

But what I saw over the weekend was added to the list. This is a house in Salt Lake City which I pass often. It’s just down the road from my liquor store.

The water features at this modest size house are ridiculously big.

Anyhow, the lesson here is…to scale people. Make it to scale.

Don’t get too excited. My new addiction is PG rated.

At least that’s what I thought when I discovered the game Words With Friends. It’s an app for the iPhone which is just like Scrabble. And it seemed so innocent. Until I noticed a trend. Check out the letters on the right side going down:

This is the order of games I’m playing. I can’t make this shit up.

Two other images to share which are my proudest:

My highest point word ever. (This one isn't dirty. I'm just bragging.)

Rhyming with Rambo works. And the points are PERFECT.

So if you want to play with me, I’m Susanmercedes. And I promise to keep it as PG as I can. Just don’t blame me for the dirty stuff that creeps up.

Ever wonder what it would take to be a hippie? I was told by a friend that I didn’t even know what a hippie was. I want to prove him wrong.

Here’s how you do it.

Step 1: Stop taking showers. Personal hygiene can be taken off your to do list.

Step 2: Master the game of hacky sack, fine tune your drum skills and learn to toss hippie sticks.

Step 3: Brighten up your wardrobe with handmade tie dye clothing.

Step 4: Believe in unicorns and their magic.

Step 5: Grow out your hair. And for men, grow out your beard. All the way down your neck.

Step 6: Make sure you have at least one sleeping bag in the trunk of your car.

Step 7: Stop eating meat or go big and become a vegan.

Step 8: Never stay in a hotel again, only camp.

Step 9: Dust off your Birkenstocks. Don’t forget to wear them with socks.

Step 10: End all of your conversations with the word “peace”.

This list was compiled based on my experiences. What would you add to the list?

There is no way I could be a hippie. I don’t even like granola. And now that I have the list, I know what NOT to do.
