Okay, now I’ve gone and done it……I’ve figured out Facebook.
Well, mostly figured it out – there are still some things that I don’t get. For example, how do I add friends to a “note” when I do an meme?  I need my girl, Leah, to walk me through it, I suspect.  Leah, she’s one of my two closest girlfriends - I found them both on MySpace.  We were friends the first time, back in the 8th grade.
So far, I have a few old friends and even a couple old boyfriends added to my “friends.”  I love hearing from old boyfriends. I’m …read more

Just in case you are curious, I wrote back to the younger guy at Plenty Of Fish.  I wasn’t really interested in dating him and no I had no intention of leading him on, either. I was curious about what he had to say. 
Apparently, he has very little to say beyond, “How are you doing? Me and my buddy were out late…,” that kind of thing. I commented on his photos, that’s what he contacted me about in the first place, but I got the impression that photography is not one of his intersts, after all.  We have nothing in …read more

I picked up one our local weekly papers and this is what my horoscope said:
Happy Holy Daze Leo!
If I could give you one gift for the holidays, it might be a magic object to add to your love altar – something like a pomegranate resting on red velvet, or a golden heart-shaped magnet or Pablo Neruda’s book 100 Love Sonnets. What?  You don’t have a love altar? Well then please begin creating one as soon as possible, and continue building it throughout 2009. For the next 12 months, the time will be right to get smarter, wilder, and kinder in …read more

Last night, I found this story - Dressing alike everyday habit for this couple. 
Retired couple, Honey and Ray Smith have dressed alike every day for the past 5 years.   Their closet is full of matching size small and size medium shirts, pajamas, watches, two sizes of matching croc shoes (yuck) in various colors, as well as matching pants. Honey does skip the boxer shorts – apparently she enjoys Victoria’s Secret under her matching Hawaiian shirts.  
Together since high school – when they first sported matching outfits for Senior Ditch Day – the couple wears the matching outfits to show the world that they are a …read more

A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.  ~Phyllis Diller
 
You’ve decided that you are open to meeting someone and you’ve made your wish list known. The next step is to show the world that you are open to meeting someone. The two best ways to do that are to make eye contact and to smile. 
I work midday at an elementary school.  I am a teacher’s aide and I spend lunch hours with about 570 children.  I like all of the students, but there are quite a few special kids that greet me with a big smile each day.  I feel those smiles and appreciate …read more

While looking around Pretty Social the other day, I found this link – Listen Up Ladies: Would You Date this Man? at  For the Love of Blush, Cake & Romance.  
A few days later, I saw the same post listed with very few responses in the comment section.  Surprised me, as the guy is pretty cute and the scenery behind him is very intriguing.  I tried to find out more information, as in where the guy is located, but there’s been no word yet.  
Here’s an excerpt from the post:  
I am posting this special message on behalf of a great friend who supports my …read more

Everyone has heard the old adage, “Gentlemen prefers blondes,” right? 
Well, apparently that is not the case. According to a case study conducted by researchers from Florida State University, men prefer women with long, thick, dark hair. It’s biological, the brunette is seen as the healthier female, the most likely mate. Part of the study consisted of one woman in different colored wigs. The long, brown hair was the one that both men and women responded to. As explained by AOL’s Beauty and Health channel:
“The study: Fifty men and 76 women whose average age was 27 rated the attractiveness of women who were depicted in six different photographs. …read more

Are you a fan of hot guys?  Well, then check out the Hot Guys of 2008 at Cosmopolitan.com.  You can chose to look by state or take a quiz to see which of Cosmos hot guys is for you. After looking over the list, don’t forget to vote for Bachelor Of the Year. 
You know, pretty as these boys are, not a single one of them can hold a candle to this guy. (No, not the photo with the goofy face – the one where he’s relaxed and holding a drink…….ahh, refreshing). Maybe I’m getting old, but I like men who look a little bit seasoned. I even like the mustache, but …read more

Are you aware of the health benefits of regular sex? 
Count decreased risk of both heart attack and stroke in men, a slower rate of aging and better body image in women, as just a few of the ways in which regular doses of intimacy with your partner can improve your overall health and well-being. 
Are you a fan of chocolate? Well, according to 34 Reasons To Have Sex on AOL Health;
“Your sensitivities are heightened after sexual intercourse,” Gardos says. “That bottle of wine or chocolate bar will taste even better.”
Hhm, I wonder if this theory has anything to do with why I love my boyfriend’s cooking …read more
