Sexual Anorexia? Sexerexia? This is a new medical condition apparently that can be defined “an obsessive state in which the physical, mental, and emotional task of avoiding sex dominates one’s life. Hmmm… Really? Thats odd, because the people who aren’t having sex usually want to have sex and the people having sex (or at least the ones I know) want MORE sex! But you have some people who are withholding it willingly? Hmmm..
I always thought using sex to control a relationship never worked? In the article it says that “Like self-starvation with food or compulsive dieting or hoarding with money, deprivation with sex can make one feel powerful and defended against all hurts.” Hmmm… In my mind, lack of sex makes one cranky and a downright bitch (this term does apply for men as well). Could that be all those control issues coming out? Having sex is like a way to cope with stress and problems. It’s like while your in the middle of some good sex nothing else exists, but you and the person and the moment. So, can you imagine using NO sex as a way to cope with stress and life difficulties? Um, NO. Sex is therapy. Yes, Robin Thicke had it right. Give me sex therapy!
How does one go about treating sexual anorexia? Do you suddently decide you’ve had enough of the drought and just go and bang the next person you see? How do you formulate healthy relationships without sex? I’m sorry, but you can’t have a serious adult relationship without sex at some point. You just can’t. That’s my belief and I’m sticking to it.
I’ve had these pics for a little over a week, but I just was so busy! I am sharing them now!
Look @ little Dakota Fanning! I can’t believe she is so old now! I was shocked when I saw her in the New Moon (Twilight Trilogy) movie! And even in Secret Life of Bee’s I couldn’t believe how tall and dangly she’d gotten. But these pics, for Italian Vogue, she is so big! Big as in grown up. I feel so old when I watch people grow up. I’m sure people feel the same way when they see me. You hear it all the time “Yeah, I remember when you were yay high” LOL?
Idk what is up with these Lourdes eyebrows, but I guess that’s Italian fashion.. She doesn’t even look like the cute little girl from Man on Fire in some of these pics.. but that is hollywood life for you!!
Very Penny Lane
And these shoes: HOT HOT HOT!!!!
Who can read Italian to say what brand those are? They are bomb.com and then some! Need more info!
“Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms, and the autumn moon is bright.”
It sounds like it should be scary, right? That’s what I thought too about the move The Wolfman. All the previews made it look devilishly creepy and exciting. So, you can imagine that I was very excited to be creeped out at the movies last night. I should have known something would be amiss when the lady in front of me gave us a stank face when we said we were going to see Wolfman. It was that face like Nina gave Carrie in the bathroom.. Yeah, that bad.
I don’t want to spoil the movie for anyone, but I will say that while not a movie that kept me on my toes, it was gory. Blood gushing, guts on the floor goryness that some people enjoy. And that is what you need with a movie set in the last 1800s, blood and gore to spice it up. I would definitely recommend waiting for the DVD or the HBO premiere of this movie. While entertaining its not worth the steep 10.50 movie price. But now I’m curious to see the 1941 version. I have this thing where I need to see the original and the remake. I have a lot of originals to catch up on.
Benecio Del Toro is a great actor. He played anguished so well. Anthony Hopkins can never NOT be creepy. It’s just in his blood. Emily Blunt was someone I never paid much attention to, and I probably still won’t, but she was good.
So.. Valentine’s day is OVER!! Raise your hand if your single and survived it without suicidal thoughts! !*fist bump*
Hopefully all you lovers out there didn’t receive one of these gifts off yahoo’s Worst Valentine’s Gifts 2010 edition. I can’t give the whole list, but some of the funnier ones1. A coupon for any kind of love?? As they said in the article “why withold the love??”
2. Self-Help Books – Nothing says I love you like “how to get overcome your past mistaks”
3. Romantic Facebook Gifts: It’s real love when he sends an E-ballon and flowers for all your friends to see… LOL
4. Cashmere toilet paper: uummm… who the hell really gave this gift? Where did you find it? Please avoid all bathroom gifts!
5. Office supplies– “my BF went to London and all i got was this stupid pen” yeah.. that would suck for Valentine’s day ..
I guess it is better to be single than have to deal with crappy gifts and half hearted Hallmark created holidays. It’s only really fun and good when the person is good to you all year and they take the time to go the EXTRA mile. Than can be a woman doing it for her man or vice versa. I’d rather just wait patiently.
BCBG Max Azria is named for the French phrase “bon chic, bon genre”—which means “good style, good attitude”—and is the lower-priced fashion arm of the company that includes Max Azria and Hervé Léger by Max Azria.
Because I enjoy little pieces of random trivia I found this extremely interesting. I can now file it away to my room of useless facts.
And here is something from the new BCBG Max Azria line: I love the color!
Best Tweet I’ve seen so far about the snow: RT @bikesnobnyc: I wish people would stop saying “snowpocalypse.” As a survivor of the 2Pacalypse I find it offensive <— that is HILARIOUS!!! Whats not hilarious is that the NJ Governor declared a state of emergency, but yet my job decided they still wanted to be open. #FAIL!!
Did I mention that I finished the book “The Last Lecture?” I thought it was soo good! It was exactly what I needed in my life. I mean, it made me think about how in life so many of us give up on our ideals and settle in with its distant cousin reality. No FAIR. It really is true: Reality Shouts; ideals whisper. – Nathaniel LeTonnere, translated . Why is it that way? I want my dreams and fantasies to be close. But now they are so far away I don’t even know what they are any more. Last lecture helped me think about what are the things I dreamed of doing when I was a kid, that aren’t too far off now.
– 1. I wanted to be lawyer when I was younger. I just had it made up in my mind that I was going to be a kickass trial attorney. So, I had it alll in my head I was going to go to college, major in Criminal Justice and then go directly to law school. NOPE! I took my first criminal justice course and found that it SUCKED!! And I one Graduate TA (Teachers Assistant) who broke it down for me: If you major in criminal justice and per chance don’t make it to law school, what are you going to do with that degree in Criminal Justice. Interesting advice. Needless to say I didn’t major in criminal justice.
–2. I then wanted to be a big-time magazine editor. But that is kind of hard when you don’t have the write contacts. Very Hard.
–3. I wanted to go teach English in Korea or China or Japan or some foreign country.
None of these things seem like things I really want to do now. So now I need to think of some new adult dreams. Its really hard to dream when reality is ice grilling you. Why is this so?
EW!! BARF!!! GROSS!! What in the sam hell kinda fuckery is this??? Are people really THIS obsessed with bacon?? Like Seriously??
Bacon MMmvelopes???
The same people who bought you Baconnaise (EW!! BARF!! GROSS!!) have decided the world needs another use for bacon. Because this is what is wrong with the world, not enough uses for pork fat. From their site:
“Technology has given us a lot lately. The car. TV. X-rays. The refrigerator. The Internet. Heck, we even cured polio. But what have our envelopes tasted like for the last 4,000 years? Armpit, that’s what.
Really, people? If we can’t overcome this kind of minor technical challenge, it’s only a matter of time until some super-advanced race of aliens with lasers, spaceships and a delicious federal mail system comes down and colonizes the world. And nobody wants that (except for the aliens, of course).
So, after thousands of years and kajillions of horrible tasting envelopes licked, we’re happy to report that J&D’s Bacon-Flavored Mmmvelopes™ are here to save the day. No longer will envelopes taste like the underside of your car. You can enjoy the taste of delicious bacon instead.
That’s right, bacon. It’s not real bacon, mind you, so you won’t have to start storing your envelopes in the refrigerator. But it really does taste like bacon. Which is what you really wanted in the first place, isn’t it? And it only took us 4,000 years to get there. Eat that, alien invaders.”
Who the hell still uses envelopes anyway?? I mean, any bill I send in an envelope comes in an already addressed envelope from the company requesting it. And everythig except my rent can be paid online, and that will be available soon. And I’m sure the 95 yr old lady who still mails in her requests for her life bracelet isn’t really thinking of the flavor of her envelope. ANNNDDD who buys envelopes you have to lick when they have the self-adhesive ones??? #imjustsaying.
I found this in my dialy hungrygirl.com email – you can check it out HERE
I was over on www.global14.com (JD’s blog) and saw these new Gucci Spring 2010 shoes. I love them! So, I googled the whole lineup for spring 2010 and also loved these:
I guess I really love the bondage theme for my shoes .. HOTNESS!! Can’t wait for the Steve Madden knock-off LOL!
For those that don’t know Eva Mendes is my girl crush. This Bad B exuuudddeeesss sexiness!! I was in LOVE with her last Calvin Klein ad and I also love these new pics. I forget where I cam across the pics. She is H.O.T !! Caliente! LOL!! Notice she doesn’t need a fake huge ass to ooze sexy… #imjustsaying !
And is that Halle’s hot ass baby daddy?? These ads are too much…
SO, apparently a girl really can have her glass slipper. It’s just going to cost her 7,500 dollars!!!!!!!
Pasquale Fabrizio, who is this UBER talented “shoe cobbler to the stars” has designed these glass slippers. I have never heard of Pasquale, probably since I’m not a star, but according to laweekly.com
He once built a three-legged monster costume for two 300-pound wrestlers. He fashioned a steel brace for the shared third leg, so that one wrestler standing inside the suit wouldn’t crush the other’s foot. He built up the calves of Angelina Jolie’s Jimmy Choo boots in Mr. & Mrs. Smith to make them thigh-high, and he swapped out the heels — 80 pairs at a time — so she could run around comfortably during stunts. He duplicated Muhammad Ali’s Everlasts — down to the tassels — for Will Smith, then, as Smith wore out their rubber soles from hours of practice in the ring, he resoled them. When Frank Darabont, the director of The Green Mile, needed the squeak removed from a pair of boots, Fabrizio came through … and did so again when Darabont changed his mind and wanted the squeak returned. One regular customer even implored Fabrizio to fix a Jacuzzi cover. The dog had chewed it.
WTH is Murano glass you ask (because I did) its some super secret Italian way of making glass!! According to wiki, most Murano glass art is made using the lampworking technique. The glass is made from silica which becomes liquid at high temperatures. As the glass passes from a liquid to a solid state, there is an interval when the glass is soft before it hardens completely. This is when the glass-master can shape the material.
I’m not a 100% fan of the shoe, because I don’t like the thin strap across the front, but that heel design is TTIIGGGHTTT and I love the gold beads and ankle strap. BOMB!! Not that I have 7,500 to be spending on them anyway!
Me and my BFF had a great conversation last night about dating issues. We talked about how dating was so much easier when you’re younger (let’s say around 19) than when your slightly older. And its true, a few years make a huge difference.
One example we said was that when your 19 you kinda have (for lack of a better term) low standards. You meet a guy and find out he lives at home in his mom’s basement. You’re cool with that, because chances are that at 19 you don’t have your own place. You don’t care too much if he has a car, because you may or may not have one. You might be OK with date that included “hanging out in my basement and watching movies.” Fast Forward to 25. If you meet a guy who says “Yeah, I live in my mom’s basement.” You might have some questions as to why.
Some people have valid reasons for living home. I know that I’ve encouraged some of my friends who have been considering moving home to do so. Hell, if I could move back home and save some money, I would. But if you meet this possible date and they say they still live at home, always lived at home, their mama takes care of them, and they have no ambition. That might pose a problem. You need all the evidence before you judge. It is wrong to write someone off as soon as you hear “home.”
At 19 you may have been more willing to communicate with someone via text. You may have been more willing to invite people over to your house. When I was 19 and in college, it was perfectly fine to meet someone, invite them over to the dorm and we hang out. Either in the communal area with my floor mates or in the room with my roommate. Now, I don’t think its acceptable to invite someone over to your house all willy-nilly. Guys, (not all just some that I have come across) seem to think that if I’m inviting you over to my house we are going to partake in some hanky-panky. No, not gonna happen. At least not with me.
Another thing that is different as you get older is how you communicate. When I was 19 I never left voice mail if I called you. I mean, even sometimes now I don’t leave one, but IF I perhaps do leave you a voice mail and you return my phone call via text. FAIL!! I will not call you again until my phone call is returned. If this is early on in our ‘courtship’ I might never call again.
True Story: I met this guy. He seemed fairly nice enough and I was in a rush, and I didn’t really know if I wanted to talk to him. So I took his number. So like a day later I decided to call. I called and left a voice mail. The next day I received a text from this person, and not just a regular text – sprint picture mail. FAIL!! SUPERFAIL!! I don’t need you sending me an old ass photo of your self saying “good Morning” all you had to do was return my call. In case you need to know. I never called back. He never returned my call and he presented himself as a lame-o . LOL
What is wrong with some of these new dating ‘rules’? I am not willing to give up faith. Someone out there knows how to do it right. I know they do.
My co-worker showed me this video and I found it to be Hee-Lar-ious!! I barely paid any attention to last weeks unveiling of the iPad, but I did manage to catch some Twitter jokes about it. Even if you’re like me and didn’t pay it any attention, you will find this funny.
