Aging: Becoming My Mother’s Daughter

Next month is my birthday. I have about 6 weeks of being 36 left. I’m told I look younger. This is good news, I like it. Truth be told, I really don’t care about looking “36”. Not yet. I probably will. Likely when it starts to show. When I’m 42. Heh, heh. But you know what? I’ve worked for [...]

Stupid Business People Who Don’t Get Business

So, the thing about blogging is, we get weird questions and shit. Solicitations. You know. Let me save you the suspense: No, I don’t want to “trade links”. But thanks for asking.

The Museum of Penis

I'm unlikely to ever, ever be interested in the Museum of Sex if it's going to be this misogynistic before I even put foot in the door. I mean, if there was a woman anywhere on this creative team, I'll eat my bra. And it has an underwire!

The Business of Unhappiness

Body image. Stand any one of us in front of a mirror, ask us to reveal what we dislike about ourselves, and an unhesitating list would be quickly forthcoming. Industry knows this. They count on it. All the way to the bank. If you’re happy about yourself, why would you ever spend all that disposable income [...]

Putting My Foot Down On You, Dr. Scholl

I’m interviewing at an ad agency or two tomorrow. No, I won’t be doing any of the ad copy work or anything, more of a save-the-sanity support office worker, since I excel at that. But advertising is something I’ve always been very, very interested in. Remember the movie Crazy People, from years back? Daryll Hannah [...]

Sex, You, and Your Kid: How Parents Are Failing

Parents bear so much responsibility for how kids view sex. It’s a shame most of them don’t handle the subject better, and terrible that so little emphasis is placed on sexual education.
