We've all seen, loved and bawled our eyes out over The Notebook. And in case you haven't or need a refresher, or perhaps you just need a bit of Gosling injected into your day, here's a quick clip:

You may remember that not too long ago I embarked on a journey into the online dating world. I had mixed results, to say the least. However, I picked myself up, dusted off the creepers and decided to keep at it. Hey, free dinners, right? (Kidding... but not totally.) Weaving my way through online dating services, I came upon Grouper Social Club

Grouper? Social Club?...

I am so glad my dating days are behind me.  Especially first dates!  Sure, they can be fun and exciting with all of the newness and anticipation, but they are also extremely nerve-wracking. Aside from the whole chemistry/compatibility question, there is the scariness of The First Kiss.

I’ve put the following items on my face in an attempt to find the perfect DIY skincare: hemorrhoid cream, milk of magnesiagoat’s milk and countless produce and dairy concoctions made into masks. So, when we started talking about some ideas we've thought about for an online dating article, actually trying out a service didn’t seem so scary in comparison. Especially when...

I love long weekends. Who doesn't, right? I super, duper love them though because all of my out of town friends come back home for the weekend and I get to spend some quality BFF time with them. We like to have little 'staycations' on long weekends. We spend the weekend doing tons of fun stuff that we might not normally have the time to do during the weeks and of course, we get to do...

Recently, and for the first time in my life, I heard myself referred as a “strong person.” I guess they were referring to the fact that I haven’t had a total nervous breakdown, but those people haven’t seen me run into a spider in our basement or watch our dog nearly kill a rabbit in the backyard.

Aside from my occasional bouts of hippie fever, I’m entirely conventional in many ways, the least fortunate being that I’ve spent a good portion of my life turning my dissatisfaction over my body into a science.
