Advice For Girls


If  I were to write an advice book, it would probably be called something like, "Don't Do What I Did." Almost all my best advice falls either under that heading or under Practical Info (like how to improvise a security system and how to keep your tampons dry during a rainy season).
Here are a few examples:
Don't mix tequila with any fruit but lemon.
Don't date brothers, simultaneously or serially.
If you attend an ash-scattering ceremony, keep your mouth closed and beware the updraft.
I've got hundreds of them.
Here's another:
Don't get yourself kicked out of a mandatory "anger management program" at the cost of your job unless you have a foolproof plan to support yourself....
