So I just got back from a salsa performance in Palm Springs and brought the usual suspects to read by the pool like Us Weekly and a book by Paolo Coelho seeing as he’s a life-changer. However, there’s another book I’m reading that was nowhere to be found, one that didn’t quite make the […]

We’ve all heard the stories about so-and-so’s brother who met the love of his life online and now lives happily ever after in eternal wedded bliss. My married friends in particular who’ve never had to do it love to tout the benefits of online dating to me. “C’mon Cherie, get with the times! […]

Ummmmm, because it matters? A lot? Don’t waste your time trying to convince me otherwise either. Definitely wasn’t born yesterday.
Yeah, it’s pretty serious. We really do use people’s age to judge them, not to mention ourselves (against them). If we’re older, we’ll compare their situation to where we were at […]

But when you live in California, sometimes there’ll be droughts that last so long you start forgetting what rain even feels like. The dry spells seem to last forever and a day. “Water that falls from the sky??? Are you sure…”

Call me crazy, but have you noticed that men are just not trying like they used to? Nowadays it seems like they all want something for nothing. And their chicks for free.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a man hater by any means. I love men. Live for them actually. […]

Let’s just continue on with the subject of breaking up so we can get it out of the way, shall we? Although I don’t know why I’m asking you since you don’t have much of a say in the matter.
There’s nothing sadder a person who’s just been broken up with. The dumped are […]

Yes, yes, we all have embarrassing moments sometimes. Sometimes we wear the rival college’s color to our freshman year football game and have forty thousand people yelling at us to “take off that red shirt, take off that red shirt”, while we’re just humming along “da da da da da, da da da da […]

If I’m not mistaken, I do believe that I just got “Hey YOU”ed while walking through my office. And I’m not talking about a friendly “Hey You!!!” or an I-forgot-your-name “Hey… You” either. This was a soft, gentle, penny-for-your-thoughts “heyyy YOUuuu”. By someone who has NOT been commissioned for such talk. Needless to say, I […]

So the other day I was at the office, minding my own business and ‘working’, and I got a text message from Ben. It’s been about a month since our last conversation, which consisted of him telling me there was “no way he could be in a meaningful relationship right now, but that he […]

And a certain 6’7″ German bodyguard happens to be the sole reason for that. I’m not just using the word “bodyguard” figuratively either. He’s an actual bodyguard, a life-saver, a people-protector if you will.
