Today, one of my bestest friends, Deni, has decided to share this recipe she tried out on her man the other night with great success. It was also Deni's birthday yesterday, the 13th, so we're wishing her a very happy birthday! With cake! Now, Deni hates Chinese food, so J never gets Chinese food, but… Continue reading Sweet and Sour Chicken (Modified)

Dating Tip #5
Today's tip, I got from Millionaire Matchmaker Patti Stanger, which is a hilariously awesome show and entertains me on many levels. Don't give too much information (TMI) on the first date, phone call, etc. because you have to leave some mystery, people. Besides, all those skeletons in your closet will come out down the road eventually. For… Continue reading Dating Tip #5
Move On, Move Forward
I've been thinking about a lot of things lately, good and bad things, stupid things, things that annoy me, and I've had several posts running through my mind about each of those things. Then, the other day, I pretty much realized something that negates it all. I'd like to share that with you today, and… Continue reading Move On, Move Forward
Online Dating – Week 4
Today, we're going to take a look at my "About Me" section on the dating site, and you guys get to critique it! That's right, since most of you are writers, I'm recruiting you to tell me what in the hell is wrong with my "bio" ... or not.

Dating Site Tip #4
Guys, please, for the love of God, don't come off as totally jaded in your profile. What I mean is, don't write things like, "if you're here to play games, just keep looking because I'm not the guy for you," and shit like that. It's really off-putting, and makes me skip your profile simply because… Continue reading Dating Site Tip #4
Singled Out – Online Dating – Week 3
I'm seriously beginning to doubt Match.com's matching capabilities. Just because two people both have dogs doesn't make them a match. Even better? Just because a guy shares the same birth month with me, it most certainly does not make us a match. Why? Two Gemini together are great as friends, but as lovers? Oh hell… Continue reading Singled Out – Online Dating – Week 3

That's right, my mother is a poet and has several of them...somewhere around here. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. At a time when your world's Full of hurt and pain When… Continue reading Fresh Start
Dating Site Tip #1
Guys, when you give your personal contact info (such as an email addy or your yahoo IM) in the VERY FIRST email because you don't want to deal with the dating site, that's an immediate disqualification from the dating pool. Seriously. Now go take your time out by the locker room. *blows whistle*
Track Changes 101
Today, I'm going to teach you all about Track Changes in MS Word. If you don't know what that is, that's okay. I've encountered many writers over the last few years who haven't a clue. I've taught them via phone and email; I can teach you through a blog post. Actually, it'll be easier this way because… Continue reading Track Changes 101
Online Dating and Me
Okay, so some of you know, if you've been paying attention, that I signed up for an online dating service during my apparent inebriated state after coming home from Atomic night in Scottsdale on Sunday, September 4th. I'll admit, even with the buzz I carried, I was a tad nervous about the prospect. I mean… Continue reading Online Dating and Me
