Yes, you can learn a lot from a dog. I learn from Teddy Brewski every day. I mean, I learned last night that dogs will eat everything (even asparagus) if the opportunity arises. I will let you know how that goes. But what I really want to share with all of you people is this. As I walk Teddy Brewski and watch him walk his favorite walk every day and he always takes time to smell the roses. He also let’s someone else (me) deal with all of the “garbage”. I have decided to let go of a lot of… Continue Reading

Plug Me Back In: Hump Day Snarkiness
Good Morning and happy Hump Day! In celebration of it being just that I thought I would share a little known skill I possess and might need to add to my media kit. I can rap (ish) the entire Humpty Dance by Digital Underground. Yes, that is me in an Uber. Highly recommend using uber when you feel a little happy of have a drink or 4. It is awesome. Also, take a look at my updated media kit if you have a product or work for a brand that might be a snarky fit for MelanysGuydlines. Always looking for… Continue Reading

FORE: Gone Golfing
I did it. I finally got in touch with a golf pro and am now on the golf course taking lessons. It is super challenging and takes patience, which I don’t usually have but need if I am going to be good at this sport. Yes, this is a sport. I apologize to my friend in seventh grade when I said golf wasn’t a sport. Wow – was I wrong! In my defense, I was an avid softball player and couldn’t see anything else but a softball bat and a ball (and cute baseball players). So, I am finally taking… Continue Reading
Not All Followers Are Created Equal
If you missed me last night…here is the Blab after few technical mishaps, dog barking, spelling errors, echoed sound, mother nature fighting me for bad lighting! Seriously. Can anyone recommend a small lighting kit that doesn’t suck or can you ask Mother Nature for a little more natural light for me please?! Thanks #socialmediaproblems Take 2. We are all human and sometimes technology doesn’t play well with others and that was me last night! We are all human and sometimes technology doesn’t play well with others and that was me last night!

Social Media “No-No’s” and Pet Peeves
Let’s face it. The majority of us spend a lot of time online. I think I might spend more than the average person (and Teddy Brewski more than the average puppy) on some form of electronic device. To be fair, it is my job and there are many things I love about being fully online and engaged with people from all over the world on my computer or phone. However there are some “no-no’s” that people do online that drive me up the wall. 1. Being a flat out nasty, hater or troll. We are very lucky to enjoy our… Continue Reading
MG Runs On Dunkin’ Donuts: Pistachio Coffee & All Day Breakfast
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Dunkin’ Donuts through Blog Meets Brand. All snarky thoughts are my own. Happy Spring! I love this time of year because there is so much going on and a lot of things to do! The only problem I have right now is that I have less energy trying to be everywhere and do everything on time. It seems like I have an event every single day and I don’t want to miss anything. So, I need coffee! Sometimes, I even need a cup twice a day. Seriously. Like today,… Continue Reading
Must Have Hysterical App – MSQRD
This is not a sponsored post. I am not getting paid to write this. But, let me tell you that my new favorite app has to be MSQRD. It stands for masquerade because you can change your face with different masks and 3D camera tricks to become all different types of people, animals, characters and more. It is so funny that I am still laughing at the videos I recorded a few days ago. Hysterical and provides hours of entertainment for the whole family. This was my first try using the app..LOLOL My new favorite app has to be #MSQRD… Continue Reading

Beverly Hills Ain’t So 9021-OHHH!
I am in Beverly Hills right now doing one of the most dreaded task a person has to do…..pack a house and move! So, while I am traveling my mom and I thought it would be fun to treat ourselves to a suite at the SLS Hotel. WRONG! This has been anything but relaxing and I would have been better off sleeping on the hardwood floor of my house with no bedding, no electricity, and curled up next to piles of cardboard boxes (which roaches love to breed in- BTW). This hotel charges a lot of money for us to… Continue Reading
