Because a relationship based on mutual distrust and paranoia is healthy and definitely going to work out in the long-run.
Why is this girl such a fucking genius?
Robot Heart: I absolutely hate the word "slut." →
robot-heart:
I have an intense, physical reaction when I see it used. It is a hateful, objectifying and degrading term where a woman’s value is based on her sexuality, or her perceived sexuality, where a woman is treated as of inherently low value because her body hasn’t been reserved for the appropriate use…

Cassi Fix It
We had a major case of Cassi Fix It today. And it was me!
I’ve wanted ombre hair for a while now, so I finally talked to Cassi and went in today. Here is my reference picture:
And here is what I left with (6 hours later mind you):
Slightly off from that original photo, huh? Well, the ombre effect was just not working on my hair. Like at all. It was definitely more on the...

Tattoo Time
With my federal tax refund sitting pretty in my account, I am ready to start the ball rolling on my second splurge (first was my contacts!)
I’ve been planning on getting a tattoo for El since she was a couple months old. I knew I wanted the quote from ‘The Complete Adventures of Peter Pan’ by J.M. Barrie:

Dating Again
Today was great. I met Shawn and we drove down to the beach. Perfect weather. We talked and walked on the boardwalk. It’s crazy how fast the hours went by. He opened doors for me. He pulled out my chair at lunch. He guided me through rooms with his hand on the small of my back. It was refreshing that he didn’t once take out his phone. We talked about everything.
