The Beauty: Kendra Cunningham
I don’t know of too many people who still abide by strict sexual mores. The only time people start thinking about when they should do it is when either a) they want to do it immediately based on strong sexual chemistry or b)they don’t want to do it based on lack of sexual Read the rest of this entry »

For most people, breaking up is the last possible option. They would rather ride out a torturous, spiteful relationship than admit “ I was wrong. I don’t really like or care about this person.”. The ending of a relationship can be confused with “hard times”. How many times have you heard “ but relationships take work”? Some people suck it up during difficult times and put more effort into the relationship or they remain physically present but retreat into an emotionless cocoon. I tend to jump ship when the waters get rough. I have one foot out the door after the first disappointment. He acts uncommunicative and moody? It’s over. He doesn’t call when he says he will? I’m out. He isn’t vying for my sexual attention 24/7? He’s done.
It’s not easy to get out of a relationship, especially if you made the mistake of cultivating mutual friendships, working together, or simply becoming enmeshed into one another’s lives. That’s why you need a strategy. My top three break up strategies are applicable to relationships of any duration. I’ve used them in three year relationships, 6 months, even week long flings.

Some people like dating. I know girls who treat it like a part time job, going on dates every Tuesday and Thursday nights and sometimes Saturday.

The beginnings of an excavation. Read the rest of this entry »
I may be the only hypochondriac that hates going to the doctor. They ask so many questions. I feel like there are so withholding with their diagnosis. And I can never describe the pain I’m in. I just know I feel like shit. I think “my stomach hurts” should be enough to go on. The patient shouldn’t be responsible for knowing if it’s the upper or lower abdomen, if it’s only when I eat certain foods, or if the pain intensifies before 7 am or after 7 pm. Doctor’s always ask specific but yet obscure questions “ well what kind of pain is it? Stabbing? Burning? Shooting?” Read the rest of this entry »
My cleaning guy is coming today. He is meticulous. Hiring him was definitely the best decision I made in 2009. I’m not one to clean. My sister mentioned a cleaning “schedule” since she was the only one cleaning. 24 hours later I hired John. Someone asked my sister if she had ever lived with a man and she asked “ not including Kendra?”. Read the rest of this entry »
