Not All Influencers Are Created Equal: Celebrity vs. Influencer Part 1

This post was written a few months back while visiting Los Angeles (I got out for good this time because I served two full sentences there and have not looked back since) and I have been so busy that I did not get around to sharing then but am making time right now! This is an important post and describes the difference between a celebrity and influencer in snarky terms, of course. Ahh Hollywood. You never cease to provide me with ample amounts of snarky material to address on this here blog. I love you for that (and just that)…. Continue Reading

Throw a Pet Pawty With Evite Invitations & Win The #PawtyPeople Contest

OMG! Be forewarned, this is one of the cutest things you will read all day! Evite just launched a new Pet Party Themed category with invitations and correspondence cards. How cute is that? I can’t get enough of the options on the Evite site. Seriously? Where does one start? I wanted to throw a football pawty for Teddy since he is named after Teddy Bruschi (the football player, of course) and they had the cutest Evite on the site. Look! LOVE! Touchdown! But, the problem is there are no football games on right now and I want to throw Teddy… Continue Reading

My Top Dog Teddy Brewski Digs TopDogDinners

My Top Dog Teddy Brewski Digs TopDogDinners

You all know Teddy Brewski is my child, I mean dog (same thing) so I am super picky about everything I feed him. I watch what I eat so shouldn’t I be concerned with what my fluffy, four-legged best friend puts in his belly? He is already Internet famous so I need to keep up his athletic figure to ensure he is happy, healthy and enjoying every second of his fame and living up to Teddy Bruschi football player status. Plus, recently I discovered that small dog breeds are prone to lipid deposits on the eyes, which means they can… Continue Reading

BlogPaws 2016: A Social Media Conference for My Dog, Teddy Brewski

Teddy Brewski and I have been so busy with his birthday, my birthday, my parent’s 50th wedding anniversary, buying a new house (YAY), Father’s Day giveaways and gift guides that we have had very little time to blog! We do want to thank everyone for all the well wishes and congratulate the winner of the Father’s Day Overstock giveaway, as it was the biggest and most successful to date! The contest had nearly 150,000 entries and our winner Nora G from Florida is beyond stoked! She is so excited and so I am to have a winner that appreciates her… Continue Reading

It’s My Birthday And I Will Do What I Want To

It’s My Birthday And I Will Do What I Want To

Another year. Another Birthday. But, this year is going to be the best yet because I have been reciting my mantra and putting these things into place. It is one thing to say them and it is another thing to actually do what you say. So, for my Birthday this year: – I am not doing anything I don’t actually want to do. – I am not feeling obligated to anyone. – I am only doing what makes me happy. So, if you missed it here is the mantra…… Sound like a plan? I do have a little wish though…. Continue Reading

Melany’s Mantra: Repeat, Rinse And Repeat

By on June 2, 2016 in Greatest Hits, Snarky
Melany's Mantra

Every morning I swear to repeat this mantra. I am going to print it out and hang on my mirror. It is the summer and I want to take some time for myself while still being able to do the things I WANT to do. This means not feeling obligated to do things others think I SHOULD be doing. Here we go. Cue the chanting music and theme lighting. Add a candle and throw in some incense but please spare me the Nag Champa. I think I left that scent back in San Francisco on Haight Street when I was… Continue Reading

You Can Learn A Lot From A Dog

By on May 24, 2016 in Snarky
You can learn a lot from a dog!

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

Happy Mother's Day - I won

It is Mother’s Day weekend and I know I am giving away a Mother’s Day prize pack but I won the ultimate prize with my mommy! You probably know her, as she is my biggest fan and supporter. The only woman in my life that I love with all of my heart, can count on no matter what, tells me the truth even though it sometimes hard to hear, loves me unconditionally and my BEST friend. She is there for me any time of day or night and is always ready to fly out and spend time with her baby… Continue Reading
