(new here? read this first.)

This is Casey and you know what I like?

Boobs.

I like having them. I like looking at them and I like talking about them.

I also love the double standard when it comes to boobs.

Room full of girls talking about boobs? Just another Tuesday.

Room full of dudes talking about boobs? Dirty.

Room full of dudes talking to girls about boobs? Sexual harassment.

Did you ever see that PETA commercial that was deemed too dirty for the Superbowl? I’ve always been a secret fan of it.

There was a comedian on television last night that was disappointed with the negative connotation of that came from a name like BOObies.

He proposed a name change to YAYbies! Or HURRAYbies! (the latter is a little too close to rabies for my personal taste.)

I hated my yaybies in eight grade. Out of nowhere…BOOM! C cups. Then I learned how to use them for good. Recently I learned that a good set of yaybies can make a cute dress cuter and can balance out substantial hips with style. Sure I complain about them, but if I didn’t have them? You betcha I would have looked into buying some by now.

Is it right that there’s a double standard? Probably not. But every time my husband wonders how I get anything done with a good set of yaybies to play with? I may act disgusted but I’m gloating inside.

I’m well aware of how fantastic they are. Those of us who have them? We all know how fantastic they are, we just let you believe otherwise.

This was the first image where I was tempted to take a look of Casey’s written interpretation (don’t worry, I didn’t). I have no idea what these things are. But whatever, right?

It got me thinking about Sandra Lee from the Food Network. She often uses a ziploc bag to dispense whipped cream or other things. She cuts the corner of the bag so she can frost a cake or add a dollop of cream to a cupcake. It’s pretty cool. I’m impressed.

These vegetables/fruits made me think of stuff like that for some reason. Simple solutions. There are lots of them out there.

I strongly believe I invented the move where you add dressing to a salad and then shake it in its container. It works every time.

I hang my shirt up in the bathroom when I shower. I didn’t invent that, but in my younger years, I was convinced it de-wrinkled it for me. Ha ha ha. There’s now way it ever did.

I definitely invented the move where you have the barista add sugar into the drink while making it. There’s something special about adding raw sugar into a hot drink as it’s being constructed. And it saves those awkward encounters where people are adding milk/sugar to their drinks at the little bar area.

I’m one of the fastest people through airline security. I invented a series of moves. Place everything in the bag – belt, wallet, watch, phone, bling, you name it. Only carry your ticket and ID. Untie your shoes. Take your laptop out while you wait in line. Attack the conveyor belt like it’s a challenge and with confidence. I invented this technique and I should teach people.

I like to over-tip for average or above average service. I certainly didn’t invent that, but it’s a mantra in my life. You should adopt it too.

I love riding my bicycle and I always bring a plastic bag to cover the seat in case it rains. That’s another invention of mine. There’s nothing worse than sitting on a wet seat. If I have an extra one, I’ll put it on someone else’s bike.

There are simple things we do on a daily basis that are taken for granted. But when you really think about them, it’s clear what a big role they play. They simplify yes. They may make you laugh. They may make you sound outrageous. Either way, it’s how we’re getting through life.

How are you getting through life?
