I don’t consider myself an excessively sweaty person, but when it’s 90+ degrees and you’re tailgating before a baseball game, sitting on a patio, or day-drinking at a festival, … Read more
Some guys are down for a fancy schmancy dinner on Valentine’s Day (*cough* amateur night), complete with him picking you up, roses in hand, and ending the night with both of you too sleepy from the booze and full from the “love themed menu” to even get freaknasty.

Despite the fact that I’m often rocking a ponytail, disheveled bun (I still can’t master the sock bun #FML), or hat (when I haven’t shampooed in a couple days), I do consider my hair an asset. You know how some lucky bitches ladies love their naturally long lashes or 24-inch waists? Well I’m proud of my … Read more
Exactly a year ago, I was having a personal problem. Not quite as bad as Al Roker crapping his pants in the White House…but close. My hair had turned to shit (no pun intended).
