If I Had My Own Magazine? I’d be the Cover Girl

I have stacks of magazines just waiting for me to read all about the newest recipes my kids will love (no they won’t), how I really can wear white pants (no I can’t), and how celebrities are just like me (no they aren’t).

If I had a magazine?  

I’d keep it real, yo.

 Yep. That’s about right.

    Can I be the editor? I have six years of publication experience and am currently proofing a 70 page magazine as we speak (while on Facebook, which means I multi-task well, no?)

  8. I haven’t purchased a magazine for women in years but I would subscribe to yours in a minute. Real advice for actual real people. Love it.

    Ha! That’s awesome. I think the thing that got to me was the leaky undercarriage part.

  11. Sign me up – I need a subscription to that! Actually, better make it two subscriptions, since most of my magazines usually end up getting cut to bits for collages and various art projects before I get to read them.

  12. I don’t think you’ll ever get Gwenyth Paltrow to pose for your cover; however, I think it would greatly benefit her if you sent her a copy of your article, “Top ten ways celebrities can be more like regular people.” I love your idea. It will sell a million copies in the first week! :)

    I would pay good money for someone to tell me how to get my husband to stop snoring! I would get a subscription for myself, and every mom I know!

  16. I’m in love. I’ll take 7 subscriptions, to start. Can I write the editorial piece, “You’re probably going to poop on the delivery table…get over it!”?

  17. Elisabetta says:

    Can I please help you put this together? I have very successful, although not traditional, parenting methods. For example, my child responds very well to threats of bringing out “mommy monster,” which helps with Facebook for at least long enough for me to finish my post. You see, it’s all about how you prepare the character, eg, crazy eyes, monster teeth. Scares the crap out of her. When she was younger, I pretended to be a robot. Of course that turned into a game pretty quick.

  18. Are you furkin’ kidding me? Did you make this? You are a genius. Plain and simple. I adore you. That is all.

    Hahahaha!! You definitely should publish your own magazine. Who better to publish something that will actually be useful as something other than a cluttering agent?

    Kim, how did I not click when I saw you Tweet this?

    High-liarious. Oh my gawd, I love you. I don’t comment often, but I’ve been here for years. Hope that gets me an interview in the December issue, in which I explain how not to give a sh*t how to avoid family, and top ten excuses for avoiding holiday parties.
