This morning, when my Michigan / OSU weekend hangover finally went away, I came downstairs and found my roommates laying around the living room drinking coffee and sharing stories from their weekend escapades. Note: any normal person would assume we all would know these stories since we spent the weekend together, but it was Michigan / OSU weekend…. Without my digital camera I would have no idea what happened.

It turns out that, while in bed, my roommate’s boyfriend, drunk as a skunk (yes, I just used that phrase) made an interesting request. Anal sex.

Now, this topic may not be as taboo as it used to – perhaps we can thank Brokeback Mountain for that? – but it is still a topic I would rather leave to the porn stars than bring into my bedroom. In fact, I am constantly wondering why so many guys make the request to begin with. I get that it may feel “better.” I also can see how it will really spice up a boring sex life (to which I must respond, “So will doing it in the shower.”).

But after asking around, I confirmed my suspicions as to the real reason: the story… Read More »

Bad news. According to some article I read yesterday while sitting in Stats lecture, there is a severe cocoa shortage happening as we speak.

I am not really an economics/business minded person, so I can’t tell you why there is a shortage, but it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that there is. And I am scared. My life revolves around chocolate. I turn to my good friend Cocoa in times of happiness and times of extreme boy-related-depression. How can I go on without it?! 

- What will I nosh on late into the night when I am studying for finals?
- How will I be able to warm up without my hot cocoa after a long day of walking to class in these frigid Michigan winters?
- What will I eat to make myself feel better when my boyfriend and I get into a fight because I see him flirting with another (much skankier/worse dressing) girl at the bar?
- And, most importantly, what will I pour all over his body when he apologizes, telling me I’m the only one he wants/needs/could ever hope for, and we have mind blowing make-up sex? Read More »

Everybody’s got an opinion when it comes to beauty, but leave to TV Guide to play it safe. AceShowBiz.com reports that “TV Guide’s Hottest Stars on US TV” issue hit newstands yesterday - and the list is a veritable who’s who of you know who and the usual, pridictable, same old, same old.

Topping the list is Evangeline Lilly from Lost- you know that girl on that show that people used to watch way back when.

Don’t get me wrong, Evangeline is a beautiful gal, but aren’t we about 3 years late on this one? For my money, Ugly Betty’s Becki Newton should be gracing the cover.

But then again she still has a few years before her show is cancelled. So hang in there Becki, give it a couple.

Who do you think is TV’s Hottest Hottie?

New Grey’s last night…loooved it.

I know they are tryng to draw us into: the Christina drama - don’t care, McSteamy’s sex strike - eh…at least he is nice to look at,but knowing that Addison is leaving the show has made me not really into that plot line…blahblahblah, subplotssubplotssubplots.

FIRST of all, I think the whole too drunk to remember sex is a legend of fratboy lore that they use to get themselves out of having to stay awake long enough to chat. I don’t need deep philosophical discussion, maybe a “Hey that was hot…” At least show me that you appreciate my flexibility!?

Anywho, sooooooooo…you have that one guy friend, he came over to your dorm room freshman year, stops by your apartment a couple times a week chat. But you know, you know that HE knows that YOU are unattainable to HIM. (Read that again if I lost you) Then one night, maybe a little drunk, maybe a little lonely, maybe needing an ego boost - you do it with your pocket guy (That boy you keep in pocket fo dire emergencies.) Albeit, our pocket guys are not married - which by the way was a huge mistake, there is a little voice saying no but we do it anyway. I regret deflowering my pocket guy…you?

If your typical workout consists of about 30 minutes on the elliptical while also chatting on a cellphone, talking with friends, and reading the latest InTouch, you may want to pay attention…

“If you’re doing cardio workouts, it can take as long as 4 months before you begin to notice shapely muscle where a mound of fat used to be,” said Kara Gallagher, Ph.D, CEO of Mohr Results, a nutrition and fitness company based in Louisville, in a recent article for Prevention magazine.

“But lifting weights can cut that time in half.” Half the time to notice any type of results? I’d say that’s pretty significant. Speaking as a former cardio-holic myself, I have come to appreciate what a little bit of weight lifting can do for your figure.

I’m not suggesting you hit the bench press with the oddly tan and gross-looking body builders. But, venture over to the free weights area and pick up the lighter dumbbells and do some arm raises or bicep curls. Just try it, you’ll be glad later.

I’ve always bad-mouthed online dating. And although it’s becoming somewhat normal to meet your “soul mate” through a match-making website, I’m still not into it. I’m much more comfortable doing the whole hooking up, “then I’ll decide if I want make you my boyfriend” strategy.

However, I’ve been thinking. Once I graduate from this place, I won’t have such a large pool of potential boyfriends to choose from. Think about it, where else will I have access to so many people my age?

I’m seeing now that this whole “dating” thing that happens after college probably won’t be so easy. I mean where am I supposed to meet people? The bar? Yeah, that’s classy. The gym? Um, who will want to talk to me when I’m all sweaty?

So I’ve looked into these dating websites. Just for research purposes. And have decided that if I must become part of one of them, it will only be HotEnough.org. Why? Because it’s for “fit, good looking people.” Haha. How shallow is that? But hey, I don’t want to date someone who’s not into staying in shape.

Cosmopolitan. Thanks for being all about sex. I’ll admit you’ve encouraged me to broaden my sexual horizons.

Today, I’d like to introduce the Lusty Lean. Yet another hot sex position. It requires some tact, but if done right can be faaantastic.

Directions:
Climb up on the bed or a chair with your back to him and squat down. Have him stand behind you, so your shoulders are against his chest. Lean on him as he steadies you by placing his hands on your hips or under your rear. Tell him to enter you from behind. Think of your knees as little springs and enhance his thrusting with your own little moves.

Why Cosmo Says You’ll Love It:
Leaning back on his chest and bracing yourself on his biceps, you’ll feel totally taken care of, and he’ll feel more studly than a first-string stallion. Plus, gravity is on your side, giving him hot, deep access combined with more of a grinding motion than the usual from-behind fast thrusting.

Cosmo’s Tip:
Once you have the rhythm down, change it up a little. So long as he can support you in his weakened state, have him take half a step back. Upping the angle will alter where his penis hits your vaginal walls, enhancing your climax by drawing it out.

I’ve always been a lover of nautical-wear. And I’m open to it when it comes to bikinis. There’s really nothing cuter than some navy and white stripes on the beach. But when I saw this one piece number, I was kind of like “Oh my, what was this designer thinking?”. The whole scarf thing isn’t working for me — it reminds me of a slutty super hero costume. I think I might hate it.

Hot or Not?
