We also think that a threesome with him and Chase Crawford could go down as one of the best nights of any woman’s life.
[Drool]
But, thanks to Drew Barrymore, that will not be happening any time soon. It seems the former Mrs. Mac has moved on from her boyishly cute ex (Justin Long); last night she was spotted locking lips with the one and only Ed Westwick. Who, by the way, is like 20 years younger than her.
It’s ok, though; at the same party where Drew and Ed were caught making out, Ed was also spotted in leather pants and a purple fanny pack. And he was not being dressed by the costume peeps at Gossip Girl. He actually chose to wear that.
Let’s just hope Barrymore keeps her slutty Mrs. Robinson paws off of Chase Crawford. If he wants an older woman, that woman is going to be me, damnit.
There are some things that are so good they just shouldn’t be messed with. And there are some that, while absolutely delicious, can be made even more amazing with a few simple additions. Brownies fall into the latter category.
While everyone loves a good brownie, a brownie can be made exponentially better by adding peppermint (or peanut butter, caramel, marshmallow… the list goes on).
Mint chocolate brownies are the perfect treat as the weather gets colder, but really, they’re perfect for any time at all. Is there ever a bad time for a brownie? Read More »
I was 14. My parents were getting a divorce. My father was also simultaneously dating a new woman. I was fighting with my brother all the time. So what did I do instead of properly dealing with my feelings? I internalized it and took it out on myself.
I was never a heavy person, but at 14, I was 5’8’’ and 160 lbs. Sounds big, I know, but I was a competitive swimmer and full of muscle. I used to eat whatever I wanted; I swam seven days a week so I had a good balance…I wasn’t heavy, but not stick thin, and I was happy with the way I looked. But when I abruptly quit swimming as a rebellion against my father, I realized that my eating of whatever I wanted had to come to a hault. I couldn’t snack on McDonalds Chicken Nuggets if I wasn’t spending two hours a day in a pool.
It started gradually…not sitting with my parents at the dinner table because I was upset, throwing lunches out that my mom made me at school, and making subtle attempts at lessening my food intake. Eventually, I narrowed it down to eating one single Pop-Tart or small sandwich a day…any single item with enough nutrients to get me through.
I also started stationary biking every day as a way to add exercise to my already starved body. I biked around 8 miles a day and did 400 crunches, so any food intake I did have was quickly wasted away by burning these calories. If I needed a boost to keep myself going, I’d pop a few sugar candies. Read More »
It’s Wednesday – basically the worst day of the week. You feel like you have done so much already, yet you still have so much of the week left to go. Depressing, eh?And today is even worse! There is literally nothing going on on the internet. I have spent the past 35 minutes looking for fun things to keep me occupied during this awful Stats lecture and all I could find that didn’t involve the bleak economy and the fact that everyone is about to get royally f–ked is this:
The government has decided to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birthday by printing new designs on the back of the penny. Maybe this is their way to take the focus off the fact that the only money anyone has right now is pennies? Or maybe they are trying to make the penny more appealing for people to use in drinking games? (Lord knows I’ve lost hundreds of dollars worth of quarters by now…)
I mean, I get it, but it’s the PENNY. The most useless coin ever. Isn’t it bad enough that the poor guy has to be the face of this thing? Now we have to remind everyone?
I just can’t wait for everyone to start collecting these things like they did when the state quarters came out. In 10 years those collections will be worth…$.04!!
If you find anything more interesting for me to be doing with my time right now, let me know via the comments. All this “margin of error” bullsh*t is putting me to sleep.
Author and marriage counselor M. Gary Neuman is all over the airwaves these days; from Oprah to The Morning Show with Mike and Juliette, this guy has been spreading his message as loudly as possible. And what is his message, exactly? “One in 2.7″ (apparently there are some half man, half monkeys walking around out there…) men will cheat on their significant other, and not only will they cheat, they’ll do it because their female counterpart isn’t appreciating them.
According to Neuman, the reason men cheat isn’t because they want a hotter piece of ass or even promiscuous sex, the reason they cheat is because their wives have stopped being nice to them. “The majority [of men] said it was an emotional disconnection, specifically a sense of feeling under-appreciated. A lack of thoughtful gestures,” Neuman is quoted as saying on Oprah.com, “Men are very emotional beings. They just don’t look like that. Or they don’t seem like that. Or they don’t tell you that.”
Even though Neuman said he wrote his book to “empower women,” a lot of people are kind of pissed off with his findings. Even though the good counselor doesn’t come right out and say it’s the wives’ or girlfriends’ fault when their partner strays, saying that men cheat because they don’t feel appreciated is basically saying it’s the wives’ or girlfriends’ fault! Because who doesn’t the husband or boyfriend feel appreciated by? That’s right — his partner. Read More »
If I look out my living room window I can see American Apparel. When I peruse my favorite websites, I am bombarded with the girls only partially dressed in American Apparel clothes. When I need a white tank top because I spilled salsa on mine, I head to the nearest American Apparel.
In other words, I know American Apparel.
Their stores are chock full of ridiculous things I would never wear, but they also happen to carry some seriously awesome essentials. You may have to pick through the sparkly unitards to find em, but they are most definitely worth the work. Don’t know what to look for? That’s why I am here.
I give you: The Best Things (EVER) at American Apparel.Read More »
We all love the environment — some of us just love it more than others.
Gennifer Moss is one of those people. Earth Friend Gen (as she likes to go by) routinely rides around her Portland, Oregon town on a bike… naked. Why does she do this? Because she wants to promote peace.
“Peace begins with ourselves, our minds, spirit, hearts and souls,” Moss says, “and our bodies are an integral part of ourselves and I was created in God’s creation and no part of me is obscene.”
I think what she’s doing is great. Combining green living and being naked is the perfect way to get people to pay attention to a good cause. My only question?
Q:What exactly is “Plan B”, that abortion pill, and should I really stock up now in case I need it later?
A: Ladies, listen up: Plan B is NOT the abortion pill. Not by any stretch of the imagination.
So what is it if it’s not the abortion pill? Basically, Plan B what it sounds like — it’s your backup plan, meant to be taken up to 72 hours after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure, to prevent pregnancy. In fact, Plan B contains levonorgestrel, an ingredient found in many regular birth control pills — but in a higher dose and in two pills, taken 12 hours apart. Again, Plan B only prevents pregnancy; it doesn’t terminate an existing one, like the abortion pill would.
That being said, yes, stock up! Plan B is now available at pharmacies without a prescription if you’re 18 or older. Whether you’re boinking every hour on the hour or in a dry spell, it will give you some peace of mind to know you have a “sh*t happens” plan. My friend recently needed it, and although she was able to get it within a few hours, not everyone is so lucky. Plan B reduces the chance of pregnancy by up to 89%, but it’s more effective when taken sooner rather than later. Read More »
