All dating apps are basically the same. Tinder, bumble, hinge, binge, bulge, whatever.. blah blah blah. Online dating sucks. Online shopping sucks. How many times do you order something online and it is nothing like its description and picture? Samesy-s but at least when I shop online, I receive the package and if I don’t like it, I send it back right away. I don’t have to waste time on pointless “getting-to-know-you-texts” (because no one ever calls anymore). I don’t have to do my hair, apply make-up, and meet at a random place for the obligatory 2 drinks when I… Continue Reading

37 Things I’m Not Obsessed With in 2022
I have always marched to the beat of my own drum and never felt the need to be like everyone else. I am an independent thinker, but lately feel like an alien while navigating the outside world and scrolling through social media. The pandemic lockdown was rough, and people had issues before, but Covid exacerbated them. I feel like I can’t relate to people on any level. When did some of this behavior become the norm? I have so many questions and observations (and can’t wrap my head around a lot of things), so I am just going to… Continue Reading

The Most Important Ingredient to Happy Relationships
This post by Laura today is spot on! The reason I haven’t been posting as often is that I am taking time for myself! Time to love myself! Words of wisdom in this post. Take it away….. Relationships are a lot like recipes, in that there is a recipe for relationship success and there’s a recipe for relationship misery. Of course, you need to use quality ingredients in order to create a beautiful cake, as if you use rotten ingredients then the end result isn’t going to taste nice, and if you miss an essential ingredient, the cake simply won’t… Continue Reading
New Year’s Resolutions Are Lame: Guydlines Are Forever
As I sit here on the eve of 2018, I take time to review my past New Years Eve posts full “guydlines-isms” and it is not surprising that I agree with 100% of what I have had to say in the past.

What Women Really Want In Life And Love

Thank you to Rob Steinberg for this guest post. He is a fellow Wildcat and dog fan, especially a Teddy Brewski fan.

Fashion: No Mo Boho
Attention Fashion Designers: I am over the “Coachella – inspired” BoHo BS look! 1. Coachella did begin as a concert or a place to hear GOOD music? Correct? Not as a fashion statement. 2. Boho is a no go on most. Word to most – you look like a couch. 3. I left my heart in SF a while ago but pretty sure it wasn’t the 60s. Please! I am so over this look and it is completely contradictory to my ROCKER music taste too btw. So, bring back glamour! I am not sure I would wear my derby day… Continue Reading

It is my favorite time of year! The weather is amazing (maybe a little toastier than usual in Arizona reaching 95 and 96 degrees the past few days), Spring Training Baseball in the Valley of the Sun (Go Giants) and March Madness College Basketball all over the country.
