For the love of tattoos … or not.

You might remember reading about my friend Alex and her tattoo mishap in a post I wrote last fall. Well, she is still undergoing her tattoo laser removal by Denver's Ink-B-Gone and has lived to happily tell the story.

The One Thing That Gets Between Me and My Boyfriend

My handbag. My Golden Goddess Satchel --you know the  heavy one that hurts my back but I love anyway--well it seems to be causing relationship trouble for me lately. It started two weeks ago when on the lightrail (Denver's mass transit). I was standing there, hanging on to the bar with one hand and holding my book with the other. Meanwhile my cutie-doodie… Continue reading

What to Do When All You Date Are Jerks

We are all frustrated by the same dating patterns we've all got. You ask yourself, why do I end up dating the same guy always? Every boyfriend reminds me of my dad, why? The guy with the really spiky hair is the only type that approaches me, how come? You date the same type of guy because you continue to be the same type of person. If you don't want to… Continue reading

Listing Income On Your Profile

Many single sites ask about your income, but leave it optional to answer. On the one hand I think the income question is irrelevant because you could probably figure it out on your own by just by punching in their job title on salary.com. But then on the other hand, it could let you know that you and your potential BF are on level playing ground, if that is important to you. What… Continue reading

What the Chiropractor Said to My Handbag

I suffer from chronic neck pain. It's probably not fair to throw the word chronic in there because no one has ever told me that my condition is chronic. All I know is that my neck seems to always hurt and frankly, I'm just annoyed by it and I'll call it chronic if I want because it makes me feel better. Sigh. Anyway. You don't think about the importance of your… Continue reading

Sexual Assault Awareness Month

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM). Take the next few weeks to really take the time to learn about the issues and educate those around us. There are many statistics that I could list here that would be depressing and scary, but all that stuff doesn't really explain how someone feels when they are assaulted anyway so I won't even try.  But what I will do is give you these resources if… Continue reading
