5 WAYS TO HANDLE THE SITUATION WHEN YOU BUMP INTO AN EX AND HIS/HER NEW MATE

We've all had some crazy encounters with exes... thanks to everyone that called in and shared their stories today! Here's the list you heard me mention on air:

1. Put a smile on your face and say hello. Introduce yourself, but make the conversation brief. This will take two minutes; you can fall apart right after. Be the adult and act gracious and pleasant - to both of them.

2. Say a quick hello and make up an excuse that you're in a rush to meet someone. This will get you out of there fast and possibly make him/her wonder who you're meeting.

3. If you're in the same place for a length of time, acknowledge him/her in the moment, but wait until his/her mate goes to the bathroom before you actually approach and say hello.

4. If stopping to talk is too difficult, you can make eye contact with him/her and simply nod or wave. No one says you have to talk.

5. If at any moment you feel like you are going to get upset, turn around and leave quietly. If you know you can't handle it - just go.

A LITTLE INSPIRATION FOR FRIDAY THE 13TH...

GOT THIS IN AN EMAIL TODAY FROM LISTENER JUDY... LOVE IT!

The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Cups of Coffee

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous "yes."

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. "Now," said the professor as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things---God, your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car. The sand is everything else---the small stuff. "If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first--- the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled and said, "I'm glad you asked." The coffee just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."

I THINK COUPLES COSTUMES ARE COOL!

So my boyfriend (Tim Richards on 7-12 weekdays here on Q104) calls me last night and tells me that he decided to go on air with a discussion that we have been having about Boo Bash.

This will be Tim's first Boo Bash, and my first Boo Bash with a boyfriend... so I suggested that for a costume, we dress as a "couple" rather than two separate costumes. Ya know, like a cheerleader and football player, Fred and Wilma Flintstone (ok, I'm still working on the actual costume idea, but you get the gist of it...)

He asks listeners to vote on whether it's "cool" or "creepy" to dress as a couple... from what I understand, 84% of the people that called him said that it's creepy to dress as a couple... I really thought it was a cute idea! So today, around 6 pm, I will be asking afternoon listeners the same question... should we dress as a couple? It would be SO CUTE at Boo Bash!!!! Don't ya think? Guess we'll find out today after 6... it's certainly not creepy, right?????
