Cristal Tastes on a Natty Light Budget
When I was pregnant for the first time, I went ALL OUT getting ready for the baby. I researched crib bedding for hours. Literally. Hours. I was lucky enough to find exactly what I wanted from Pottery Barn Kids. It was a vintage baseball theme and it was adorable. And since it was my first baby, my family and friends purchased most of it for me! SCORE! When baby number two came along and was also a boy, he received hand me downs by default. Isn't that what happens with second kids? Why buy new crib bedding when I had perfectly good, ...
You Need to Get Nailed!
Until recently it had been years since I had regular manicures. Seven years to be exact. I tried, but after the twins were born no manicure lasted more than a couple of days because of all the hand washing and the rest of the work of being a mom and keeping a house. It seemed like wasted money. So I have been doing my own nails, pretty badly, for several years. When a huge, swanky, new natural nail salon opened near my house I got a pedicure, but politely declined to review their menu of manicure services. You must try this ...
Top 15 Ways for Men to Make Sure They Don’t Get Laid
I've taken an informal poll amongst my lady friends, as well as our very astute Aiming Low readers and according to them, these are the top 15 ways for men to make sure they don't have to partake in the drudgery of sex anytime soon—or possibly ever again. 1. Talk about your junk in the third person. With a cute nickname—preferably one preceded by Mister. That's always hot. 2. Show your sensitive side by saying things like "Are you stressed? I noticed you're breaking out again" 3. Say things like "Who's your daddy?" and "tube steak." Squicking out your lady is a total ...
The Bachelor: Let’s wrap this nonsense up
I know that it has been over a week since The Bachelor ended but I wanted to share some final thoughts with all of you who have taken this epic journey of love with me. The season finale was a painful watching experience to say the least. Let me rephrase. It WOULD have been a painful experience. I did not watch the entire hour and a half or two hours or whatever amount of fluff they aired. I would apologize to you all for not watching every mind numbing minute but I feel like the fact that I flat out refused would ...

I Am Watching The Sex Scenes for RESEARCH. Yup.
I lost my virginity on my wedding night.
Yes. It’s true.
Some days I am thankful that THE GUILT guided me through this abstinence club (I am Donna Martin!) of my youth. I am thankful that I have only ever had sex with one man; my husband. I am glad [...]

A Day in the Life
2:30—Leave house.
2:45—Get to the carpool lot to pick up kid #3.
3:30—Leave said lot after ridiculously methodical procession while cursing about those 45 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
3:45—Go to party supply store to get Mardi Gras stuff for class party and rethink EVER volunteering again or maybe dig [...]

In Search of Steve
You know when you find that one specific kind of underwear that just fits your body perfectly? The one specific kind of underwear that you would gladly wear every day if it wasn’t for the, you know, stink factor. A couple years ago I found those very underwear. [...]

Frog Balls are the New Black, Or Green… I’m so Confused
The last time I enjoyed a video game was in 1981, and I was playing Frogger with my younger brothers. Every game I’ve played since then sucks balls. Not frog balls, just regular balls.
Do frogs even have balls? I’d Google it, but I’m worried about the porn results [...]
