“Now, I know my actions were not the most lady-like or civil.” My unsolicited two cents: I feel there is nothing wrong with eschewing ladylike behavior when in the presence of a man lacking gentleman-like behavior. Some dudes need to be reminded sometimes. In response to: spokenbeats: Last night, I was extremely close to catching someone square in the jaw. All because of male...

Lessons In Hair
On Saturday I went and had some cornrows done to my hair and I realized something as soon as it was finished: this hairstyle is a great way to scratch that BC itch. I LOVE having short, cropped hair.  Everyday I consider chopping my hair all off and rocking the low ceasar or some stylized short do like her. Having cornrows simulates the feeling of this haircut so well, that I may continue with...

@SESweeting: #OlympicThoughts Does Shaun White use Devacurl?

This may sound stupid...
The idea is to only eat until you’re no longer hungry rather than until you’re stuffed. What I usually do is have a small breakfast (oatmeal with fruit salad or tea and toast with jam), then a small, light sandwich for lunch. Maybe a mini-salad or smoothie or some type of snack 2 hours later. The next meal is dinner which I try to have done by 6, so that by 9 I can have my tea and...

A New Approach.
I’ve spent some time considering past relationships that I’ve been in and relationships of others who’ve discussed them with me. This had led me to wanting to try a new approach. I am going to simply just enjoy each moment I spend with a guy. I’m not going to spend each moment counting down a pre-determined amount of time that I deem acceptable for deciding whether or not...

Stop knocking the Johnny-Come-Latelies .
I know I am in no position to tell someone to lay off of the snark, but let’s give people a break here. So what if someone didn’t care about Haiti BEFORE the earthquake. Shut your mouth and let them help.  Are they supposed to remain indifferent and/or apathetic?
