2007-06-05 22:53:00 So never got the guts to post our comments. So i guess this was in fact breaking the concept of healthy blogging.

Blogging to Fame? Not Likely.
2007-06-04 16:30:00 Blogging to Foolery is more like it. Has anyone noticed anything off about the Blogging to Fame competition people are rushing to sign up for? Anything at all that makes your spider senses tingle just a bit? Or is the thought of “US $100,000 in cash Prize” enough that people don’t care, and are plunging ...

How NOT to Get the Hookup, in Case You Ever Wondered.
2007-06-02 22:23:00 I got a message on Myspace awhile back from an ex. Not like a REAL ex, just a we-went-together-for-a-month-when-I-was-1 5 kind of ex. I remembered him right away, he was a sweetheart way back when, if a little dorky. Not so much anymore, at least according to his pics. I’m not sure when ... More About: Case , Hook , Hookup
Embracing the Change
2007-06-02 17:07:00 I put up a new banner, I’m understanding Photoshop a little better and was able to make a much smoother looking header. I like it, but it’s not as edgy as the old one.

I Don?t Say These Things to Hear Myself Talk!
2007-06-01 23:16:00 Unless I am saying them to myself. I am constantly telling the kids to put shoes on when they go outside, as the boys have each had a couple of bee stings to the feet this summer. So guess which dumbass went to get the mail, shoeless, and stepped on a bee? Hint, it wasn’t the hubby. Share This More About: Hear , Talk , Things , Thing , These

Since It?s a Slow Weekend?
2007-05-27 05:54:00 Nosey question about your sex life. How many orgasms do you usually get in an average tryst with the hubby? Is it a given that you will get at least one? Are you a multiple kinda girl? Can you get it just by intercourse itself, or is a little more attention needed? I’m wondering what ... More About: Weekend , Slow , Since

Has 9 Years Together Taught This Man Nothing??
