While I was drinking Europe dry traveling last week, I re-posted an article I wrote a year prior about my mortifying vibrator incident in London’s Heathrow airport. Well the Internet (and self-pleasure) Gods were smiling on me because a few days later, I received this email: I mean…if you ever get an email that says … Read more

I feel so very #blessed I have not encountered a hair salon that charges EXTRA for a blowdry on top of cut and/or color. Because that is just It’s a douche move. I’m assuming it’s snobby/pricey salons that are doing this in the first place, which means you’re already spending $309439405839045 on cut/color, then they … Read more

I just received this doozy of a press release. ATLANTA, Georgia (February 26, 2014)—Sheila Fassler, RN, and owner of Pediatric Hair Solutions, has seen the new trend among teenagers—‘selfies’—and she’s seen the consequences first hand: head lice. “It’s true!  We’re seeing a huge increase in teens and early 20s with head lice here in Atlanta,” says … Read more

Hello, music friends. This old man attended the famous Coachella Music Festival last weekend and would like to report back to you about my magical experience. Overall, meh. Sure there are 17,000 bands and DJs splattered over a bushel of stages consuming the Empire Polo Grounds, but it’s not all horses and roses. Aside from … Read more

When the sock bun came out and some of my friends were galavanting around town with these big, perfect updos, I had a tantrum. Not only was I not coordinated/talented enough to master the technique, my hair wasn’t thick enough to make it work. Every sock bun post on Pinterest was like, “See? It’s easy!” and … Read more

Be honest, what did you think when you read that title? Wait, maybe I don’t want to know. ANYWAY, I’m heading out to the most wonderful music festival in the world, Hangout Fest, for the third year in a row. This is my kind of festival–staying in a big house on the beach instead of … Read more

Vodka at the beach is a no-brainer. Well, vodka anytime is a no-brainer. This past weekend was Hangout Fest, and when I party/festival hard for 3+ days, the smartest thing to do is stick with vodka. Sure, I’ll have some shots here and there (duh), but I steer clear of wine, brown liquor, tequila (it really … Read more

Welcome to HELL, everyone. Sorry, I mean summer. (Same temperature; I get confused.)

Thank God he was just a friend, but … Read more
