Self Acceptance
It seems to me that nowadays, the idea of self-love has become a trend. As far as I can remember, I’ve always seen my aunt read about it in magazines, but I feel as though in today’s society it is more of a grossing business and less of a personal and spiritual matter.
For Joel”¦ I had a pretty shite weekend. I broke my toe and spent a goodly amount of time in bed, pain meds made my tummy sour so I couldn’t eat the soup my honey concocted for me, and I was too drowsy to even enjoy a full episode of Downton Abbey on DVD. The weekend was […]

LTP: Everyone Else’s Day Off
I let the team have an extra day of vacation, but I’ll be posting fun stuff off and on today. I missed you, readers! I couldn’t stay away.
While it may sound like a plot of the week for some sci-fi or supernatural tv show, the concept of the emotional contagion is a legitimate psychological finding. It affects you in almost every aspect of your life: work, home, family, fun times. And you infect others with your own emotional contagions without even realizing […]

There is someone who cares. And that’s why tomorrow, for a training I am going to, I have to bring in a song that […]

Anger Management
Every spring, I can feel not just nature blossoming, but myself, too. “Finally!” I hear everything inside me exclaim. “Finally, no more gloom, no more moodiness, no more grouchiness!” And then the sunshine is traded for rain and darkness again and my mood rebels, mostly as anger.
Since I know we’ve got a bunch of new readers this week, just wanted to say hi and say this is my 8th installment of recapping My So-Called Life. Check out the tags/archives to catch up on previous recaps, and be aware that I watch this show in 10-minute installments via illegal YouTube clips. Welcome! […]

Ask STFU Jezzies – 1/13
Dear STFUJezzies: This is feedback to your virgin question. A couple of months ago I was dating and de-virginized an “accidental” virgin (he was 31, I am close in age). The sex was not great, but it’s not always great the first time, so I thought, well, we can try this again.

Daily Goodie – 1/9
Hey everyone! Iiiit’s Monday! I want to start this week off with some lulz because this weekend had a lot of sad news. So I have a few videos of Alex Trebek being a jerk. I watch Jeopardy! every night and every night I say “God, I hate Alex Trebek!” He is so smug I […]
