Socks + dating

You know when you have an old pair of socks that you just can’t get rid of? They look good at-a-glance, but after taking a closer look you can see the wear and tear on sole. Perhaps there’s no holes yet, but it’s only a matter of time. The problem is you have hope theseContinue reading “Socks + dating”

one quick dating observation

Dating in Alberta is different than Toronto. Money doesn’t seem to be an issue out here. The guys here make good money; they are not complaining about paying their rent, they don’t drive shitty cars, and they sure as shit don’t leave the bill on the table once the server brings it over. In fact,Continue reading “one quick dating observation”

first date in fort mac.

Ladies: when you’re on a date with a guy and you know you’re not digging him, do you throw down a $20 and pay for your share? I felt compelled to when I went on a Tinder date with a guy who has a neck tattoo. That’s a red flag right there, but I didn’tContinue reading “first date in fort mac.”

I’ve got dating all wrong.

It would seem I always leave room for a lover, yet when that space fills up I somehow fuck it up. So I’ve got to thinking…. I’ve must have dating all wrong. When you meet someone from Tinder, that’s not a date. That’s an “oh-hello-person-I-just-met-in-the-flesh-for-the-first-time-ever-and-we-have-a-mutual-attraction.” To get technical, yes it is a date because byContinue reading “I’ve got dating all wrong.”

she’s gonna do it

I was out for a walk after the first day of my new job and I could not deny the commonality of the songs that played through my headphones. One after the other, they played in this order and my jaw dropped: Run Away – Real McCoy Runaway – Del Shannon Runaway (U&I) – GalantisContinue reading “she’s gonna do it”

pussy problems

Bam Margera. I blame Bam Margera for my pussy insecurities. I was in my early twenties, getting my hair coloured at some overpriced Eaton Centre hair salon while reading an article in Rolling Stone. It was the first time I heard the term “FUPA”. “Fat Upper Pussy Area,” as Margera explained it. Up until thatContinue reading “pussy problems”

The 7 Rules of McConaughey

Okay yes. Lately I am obsessed with Matthew McConaughey. He is the coolest and I just can’t help it! I re-watched his episode on the Joe Rogan Experience, which I just noticed was broadcast on my birthday! So if that’s not a sign, I don’t know what is! Anyway, he mentions the things that becomeContinue reading “The 7 Rules of McConaughey”

what is your dating cringe?

Quick a dirty: what is your dating cringe? You know, a past event that when you think about now you get a shiver down your spine and feelings of shame and disgust overwhelm you? I’ll start – I slept with someone who has a tribal tattoo. EW. This is my dating cringe. Funny enough, whenContinue reading “what is your dating cringe?”

that time I almost got scammed by a modern day Nigerian Prince

What would you do if you got propositioned to be a sugar baby, earning thousands of dollars in a month? For some, the idea of all this extra income is lavish! The feeling of freedom in getting to do whatever you wanted. For me personally it would mean being able to finally get my ownContinue reading “that time I almost got scammed by a modern day Nigerian Prince”

About ordering a pizza….

There’s something peculiar and familiar when debating our pizza order which dawned on me tonight. The scenario: Should I get a 10″ or a 16″? Is the 10″ big enough? Will it fill me? Will I have leftovers? Is it going to be too thin? Should I get thick crust? 16″ might be too big,Continue reading “About ordering a pizza….”
