I suddenly know what people mean by timing in relationships. I used to think they meant timing, as in, both people had to be ready to commit to each other or to want a family and a life together.

Who gets absolutely loaded, I mean, smashed, can’t stay awake and wobbly drunk when they’re trying to impress someone?

Ladies…I’ve heard a lot of horrible first date stories, but last night I think I heard the worst one yet. I’ll tell you right now, when you’re on a first date with a guy not only should you watch how many drinks you have (as not to look like a bimbo or get taken advantage of), but you should watch how many drinks he has too!

Today I spent the morning, as many people did, watching Michael Jackson's funeral. I was touched by all of the friends and family who spoke, those who performed, and by all of the fans who gathered from around the world to celebrate the life and death of the "King of Pop".

I got to meet a new addition to my friend Rachel’s family this week—Baby M. He’s tiny, cute, and as precious as any child should be. He’s also Rachel and her husband’s FIRST baby.

I just got an email asking if I think it’s best to wait to lose your virginity till you’re older…as in early to mid-twenties older.

My friend John is having a hard time. He’s a single guy (and it doesn’t look like he’s getting married any time soon. No girlfriend either) and all of his friends are starting to marry off. This didn’t seem to bother him much until he started noticing that he wasn’t being included in the group anymore. Well, not as much.
