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…

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…

The sculpture was created to capitalize on the brand's tag line: Skin Good Enough to Eat. It's been said that the…

I know that the nuptials aren't really an appropriate topic for DatingTales, but since it is engagement season I thought it was appropriate. Here are three bits of information I really must share.
1) One of my favorite bloggers has created a new blog, appropriately titled
Wedding Idea Source, which is completely dedicated to
wedding ideas. The content is classy and worthwhile. None of that wedding mumbo jumbo…

One of my best friends has a wonderful, robust laugh and a weak bladder to go along with it. One of her favorite lines is "That's so funny I almost peed myself."
Peeing your pants can be a little funny, but it can also be humiliating. Just ask Fergie.

Last summer in San Diego the singer had a little accident while on stage with…

I have a friend considering it.
At first it was hard for me to understand
egg donation. I can't imagine wanting to undergo all the hormone treatments, "the procedure," and then just dealing with the idea that one of my offspring would be out there wandering around. But I realize that my friend is struggling with this choice and I realize my perception may be a bit insensitive. So…

My friend Alex won a radio contest for "worst tattoo" and received free tattoo removals from Denver company,
Ink-B-Gone. The tale of this tattoo is one of a crush, love, and, of course, a really bad tattoo.
You've probably noticed in the picture that it looks like flames are coming out of her ass. You've probably also noticed the Chinese symbol in…

I normally choose to use skim milk as my creamer to save on the calories, but secretly I prefer the fattening milk. So this morning…

A friend of mine prefers the o' naturelle look. I admire her for it. She has beautiful, long brown hair that has never been died, permed, or ironed. She has a gorgeous olive complexion that without a touch of artificial color glows. She also refuses to groom...down there, even with the pressure of her boyfriends, at least until recently.
A few weeks ago she became intimate with a new man. For…
