Making Sex Make Sense

April 28, 2010

A few months ago, a good friend of mine & I were at a bar having a drink. As usual, our conversation eventually wandered over to the topic of Sex: “It took me a while to really understand Sex. I was having sex but I didn’t really GET sex. I had to sleep with a few different people before I really started [...]

Surfer Chic

April 23, 2010

I had planned on dropping another installment of the ex-boyfriend letters (a really sordid one that includes a story about how I got some of the worst rug-burns of my life) but I psyched myself out. So in lieu of more sleazy sordidness, I decided to do a little tribute to some of the fashion trends I saw when I was out [...]

Fistpump Fridays

April 23, 2010

Hi, my name is Simone and I love House Music. I used to be able to say that and no one would bat an eye. But, now thanks to the spray-tanned, uber-gelled fist-pumping house-loving maniacs of Jersey Shore, whenever I confess my love for house music I get a total “WTF”-reaction (especially if the person is not from Toronto). Just to clarify: [...]

29 Things you Should Know About Me

April 20, 2010

By now you already know quite a bit about my dating experiences, past relationships and sexual (mis)adventures. But what about the rest of my life? Maybe there are some things you are wondering about. For example, what kinds of things am I into (besides lingerie, martinis and sex in unusual locations)? What’s my family like? What kind of music do I like? [...]

I’m Too Sexy for this Airport

April 15, 2010

My lovely friend Jean posted this amusing message on my facebook wall the other day: “I’m at the Hong Kong airport right now killing time before my next flight, and the public internet kiosk has forbidden me to access SkinnyDip because it contains the word “sex,” which is apparently offensive to other passengers and inappropriate for children. You’ve been blocked by the [...]

Be my Baby (HAHA, Just kidding)

April 12, 2010

Online dating has never been my thing. I like to see what I’m getting up-front. You know, kick the tires a bit. I don’t even like buying shoes online and as Cher from the movie Clueless says, “Those only go on my feet”. I’m old fashioned. I figure if I’m meant to be with someone, our paths will cross. No divine internet [...]

Ex-Boyfriend Letter #2

April 7, 2010

Dear ______, YOU’RE AN ALCOHOLIC. There I said it. I probably should have told you that 10 years ago when I broke up with you but I didn’t. I’m sure by now someone has told you this. Or some other girl you’ve dated has tried to stage an intervention. Or you’ve figured it out on your own (I hope). It feels a [...]

Tales from the Waxing Table

April 3, 2010

I was going to post Ex-Boyfriend Letter #2 today but I just wasn’t feeling it. Instead, I am going to post something equally as inappropriate for an Easter Long Weekend: A TMI post about grooming your lady parts. (Sorry Jesus) I’m just going to say it: Getting a Bikini Wax is kind of a weird experience. Ladies, do you feel me? As [...]
