27

I think this is circa 1988 or 1989.

27 years ago today, Pete and I went on our first date. In honor of that occasion, I am sharing a post I originally wrote two years ago.

Miscellanea

A typical junk drawer. Like that drawer we all have in our homes, you just don't know what you're going to find in this post. (Yahoo Images)

Ladies, I was going to write a post about how Gwyneth wants us all to steam clean our “uterus et al”, but then the Royalist, of all people, said it so much better than I could.

Bear in mind, GP is the same woman who swears by colonics, fasts, and juice cleanses, which says to me that she regularly terrorizes her body in a variety of horrifying ways. It’s actually possible that her shit don’t stink.

Instead, read this — Your Vagina is Not Cussing: Good, Simply Vulvovaginal Hygiene Tips — and learn from it. I would say that all these tips are common sense, but since there are women out there using loofahs on their lady gardens (ouch), then perhaps common sense is not as common as one would hope.

Feel free to share more advice and helpful links with the crowd.

I had all sorts of plans for a great post (or maybe even two) for you this week, but all of that has fallen by the wayside for reasons I’ll share shortly.

Instead, let’s do a quick recap of the last weekend.

On Saturday, we took advantage of super cheap airfares to fly to Boston. It was the weekend between semesters, so the girls had a couple of extra days off.

Oh sure, Boston in January has the potential to be awful, but who can resist such a lure as this: Continue reading
