Going with your gut

Wisdom
*Opinion* After my New Year’s weekend celebration I found myself sitting upright in a dentist office waiting for my six-month cleaning to commence.

The Adult Toy Party Experience
Most of the vibrators looked harmless. Some had beads in the shafts and some had birds, dolphins or rabbits on the sides of them for some clit stimulating.

Menstruation!!!!! =0
*Opinion* There I was… 15 and on my period. I took a trip to the ladies room to change my pad. When I came back to my desk the boy who sat next to me, Josh, decided to tamper with my things. He took a brand new pad out of its wrapping and placed it on … Continue reading
Speeding tickets and beating the system
*Opinion* In movies women have played “naive” and “sexy” to get out of speeding tickets, or any ticket. I always thought I would cry and the officer would feel so bad for me he or she would let me go. I never thought to try showing cleavage to get out of a ticket; then again … Continue reading
