My friend Jeffy works for Amazon.com.
(That’s not really part of the story, but I wanted to explain why this memory even came to the forefront of my mind)
So I was telling another friend about Jeffy’s wonderful career, and I said something to the effect of “He works for a 6 foot-tall woman who hacked one [...]

This past weekend, my friend Amanda (and, weirdly enough, my completely-unrelated-friend Stacey) went to something called the “Bachelor’s Ball”. Apparently there have been one hundred some-odd of these things previously (this one was touted as the “103rd Annual”).
Now, I know absolutely nothing about it, or who puts it on, or where it was held, [...]

Have you ever actually “drawn straws” for anything? Have you ever seen — or even heard of — anyone doing this? It still appears in movies and television as a viable way of selecting someone/thing, but I don’t know if I’ve ever met a single person who even so much as heard a [...]

Since yesterday was April Fools (Fool’s? I’m too lazy to look it up) Day, I’ll drop a little dating knowledge on you guys, Jigga style. (Some of you lucky enough to have read my old journal may know this already. If so, keep quiet, aite?)
It’s a pretty simple system; much easier than [...]

Since, as we saw, eHarmony.com thinks I’m unlovable, I decided to go a different route, and posted a personal ad on Craigslist. I was inspired by this advert, in the “Women for men” section. (That link will be dead in a week, but the ad is far too long to re-post here.)
I was [...]

Happy Pi day.
To celebrate, you should all get me a Chocolate Satin Pie from Marie Calenders. That seems fair.
Or just watch this.

I’ve been sick for the past week. I had the flu, which makes perfect sense, since it’s a). flu season, and b). I never bothered to get a flu shot. Now, while being sick isn’t any fun, the one thing that makes it downright unbearable is listening to people say, upon hearing of [...]

I was bored, so I went and did eHarmony’s Bazillionty-dimensional Personality Profile thingee.
And I actually did it honestly. You know, like, not lying when it asks things like “I root for certain people to fail” or “I hit sometimes when I’m angry”.
Okay, I made that last one up, but I think it certainly should [...]

Let me be honest, right off the bat: I’ve never taken a women’s studies class.
Of course, one could also say I’ve never taken a men’s studies class either.
To that, one might then be inclined to reply, “Hey, you have taken a men’s study class. It’s called ‘history’”. And then there’s usually some [...]

If you don’t think I’m in line, right now, waiting for tickets to In the Land of Women, you really don’t know me.
Honestly. Bush is president, I lost my fantasy football league, the Kings didn’t trade anyone and The O.C. is no more. But I really think this movie can fix everything.
Now all [...]
