1. Break-up survival kit

    A lot of people have survival kits in case of a natural disaster. But, how many of you have an emotional first-aid kit for that looming relationship disaster? A female friend recently told me she has a pimped-out Jimmy Choo shoe box filled with various treasures to soothe her through even the worst break-up. Contents include: one John Mayer CD, several pictures of her family, one Vosges chocolate bar, and one bottle of “Hey Vito, Is My Car Red-y” nail polish. Of course, you’ll want to personalize your own emotional first aid kit - what’s important is that you treat your emotional wounds as carefully as you do your physical injuries.
