Driving Ms. Crazy

Damn it! I left my tiara at home!


Have you ever had one of those amazing girls nights with a friend that just leaves you feeling, oh I don’t know, somehow more clear, more at peace, just satisfied? Well obviously I did (the other night in fact) or I wouldn’t be writing about it now. And for all of you Los Angelenos out there reading this, may I suggest Ugo Wine Bar in Culver City as a great location for one of these-esque nights. It would even be a lovely date locale…if I could ever get a date! Continue reading →

Patti Stanger: The Queen of “for those who can’t do, teach”


Unfortunately, DailyCandy has made their video’s embeddable on other sites. So unless some technological wizard (or some super sexy nerd-in the ironic sense-computer genius) comes down from above and shows me how to get this video, I will just have to share with you the link to today’s DailyCandy email featuring none other than Patti Stanger. Miss Stanger, who we all know and love from her Bravo show, Millionaire Matchmaker, is also as we know, unlucky in love. GURLLLLLL…I can relate.

But, watch in the link below as Patti NAILS the ways to improve one girl’s Match.com profile (ok…there are a few things I disagree with! ladies, you are really going and getting professional blowouts and makeup done for your online dating profiles? No. Just No!) and what to look out for. And don’t say I didn’t warn you when you go and look at your own and realize that’s why you haven’t been getting any dates…or only replies from actor/bartender/dog walkers!

Confession: I Am An Online Ageist

Yeah, that’s right. I am an online ageist. But I mean this in a good way. I mean this in the way that you all understand why To Catch A Predator with Chris Hansen had a reason for existing (oh Chris Hansen…you really cheated…online…and got caught…really?).

On all of the online dating sites they ask what your age range is, which makes perfect sense. It would make sense that as a 24 year old, I would ideally (IDEALLY…notice the italics) date someone a little older, but not too old. Like say 26-29, maybe even 30. Ah, if only it was that easy.

DTR..No This Has Nothing to Do With Your Cable Box

Some might say both dvrs and men need to be programmed...some, not all! Gosh!


DTR (not to be confused with dVr)…means Define The Relationship. And in this day and age where we must name every thing in life, this is the moment where you have that discussion with your “signficant,” or what you may come to realize “non significant,” other about what this really is. And when I say really, I mean DEFINE it. Evil, evil, scary words to men (apparently). Continue reading →

Why a Green Thumb Might Be Better Than A Man

And you thought "tree hugging" was just a euphemism for loving nature!

So this is the week for reader friend submissions! Another friend, we’ll call her “has a boyfriend but is still relatable.” Maybe “gets it” for short? Well, Gets It sent this article from the blog, THE FRISKY (I can already get on board with a name like that!), called 5 Reasons Why Having A Plant Is Better Than A Boyfriend. Click the link to read the full article, but obviously you are on my blog, so either come on back or just read on. Continue reading →
