What a Woman Really Wants
Author: Jayne3 Sep
Being a women, I feel qualified to tell people “what women really want”. And when I say ‘people’, I mean men, being the only non-women people there are, and women don’t need to be told what other women want, because we already know… its in the handbook.
My birthday is coming up next month, and my husband has been telling me to put some stuff on my wish list, because he’s given up on guessing what I want. (Good for him, by the way.)
But what I really really want isn’t something I can put on my wish list, because I don’t even know if it’s possible to get one of these anymore….
If you don’t know who MacGuyver is, I really don’t know how to talk to you.
My favourite sister-in-law (heck one of my favourite people) we call “Susan-Fucking-MacGuyver”. She’s got one of everything in this Mary Poppins bag of hers, and I have no doubt that she could escape from anywhere without much todo, because she’s the only woman I know who carries duct tape with her. I’m not making this up.
Tease her as I might, I’m secretly jealous. She’s prepared for everything. But, I don’t have a Mary Poppins bag. My poor little purse is miniscule in proportion, but lo and behold I find out there’s this MacGuyver Tool Kit available. This is SO what I want.
If I had this tool kit, I could do anything. I could be fearless. Hell it would be the next best thing to being a pirate. I have never in my life done anything remotely like swashbuckling, but I think if I had this toolkit, I might.
This post was inspired in part by TheWishfulWriter. The dream, however, is entirely mine.

Oh, Jayne, it could be that you’re just SOL….I love giving you presents and immediately searched the Internet at large for MacGyver tool kits…nada, zilch, zip. I DID find, though, the phrase has slipped into generic usage, as in, “Add this to your _____ .”
I then turned where all Americans turn when finding Wal-Mart can’t produce every last thing one could possibly want: eBay. eBay has turned into an effing Church Rummage Sale (and you know how I feel about them) and eBay does not have a MacGyver Tool Kit.
You might have to settle for diamonds again this October.
…never mind the tool kit…I want a copy of the HANDBOOK.
Thar be NOTHIN’ better than bein’ a pirate. Ye bite yer tongue!
Also, Macguyver is so rad. I’d stop the lesbo process for him, but not for his weenis, mostly just for his ability to break me out of jail
Wrong! Being a ninja is better than being a pirate! Ninjas are like MacGyver with swords.
Ok you win. I’m a ninja and a pirate.
I guess that makes me bi.
[note to self]
Get a copy of the HANDBOOK (cos I’m clearly missing that one).
Get a McGuyver Tool.
Date a ninjapirate.
Good list. One every man should share!
HA!
I just saw this post - how funny. Perhaps she and April can join forces and save the world using one paper clip at a time???
Great blogsite. love it.
i so want the mc gyver kit too!
When my dad was in the hospital a few months ago, he said that he wanted to go to the restroom but they wouldn’t let him because of all the stuff hooked up to him. So he said he “McGuyvered” his way around their beeping devices and went anyway. I guess it’s possible he had one of these, but I never did ask him. Good luck finding one.
geez,
and all this time i thought women just wanted a sensitive man who apologized after making a manstake.
tool kits i can do.
happy days are here again!!!!
I axed my wife three different times what she wanted for her birthday, and she dodged it each time. I got her a tank full of gas and an empty jewelry box. Then, because it was unbearably hot, we all went to 7-11 to window shop, in her car. Was I out of line?
Swashbuckling sounds so exciting. I’m never quite sure what it means to buckle one’s swash, but it sounds like it might be as good a way to spend a day as anything else.
I’ve definitely spent entire days in much less worthy persuits!
