Remember that abortion party we told you about? The general reaction to that little shindig was, um, “Appalled!” But, as I’ve never heard of one before, I don’t think it’s an indication of a trend. However, one aspect to the story did inspire another conversation about how much say a man should have in a woman’s decision […]
I posted earlier about chopping off seven inches of hair after finally deciding that my break was not a breakup. While a cliche, it was a defining moment that signified my new perspective on the future. Luckily, as many of you so kindly pointed out, it turned out to look good too. (I swear, I didn’t post […]
If you’re among the many, many humans who hate-read Goop, you’ll be psyched to know that GLOP is the Goop parody book you’ve been hoping for.

Altitude plus your skin, for many people, is an equation that equals for disaster for some reason. I don’t know what it is, but there is some mysterious force in air travel that absorbs all the moisture from your skin, turning it into old paper.
