It is impossible for me to find jeans that fit me well. If they are long enough (I stand a tall 5’10), then the rise is too low. If the rise is high enough, the pants are too short. And if I am lucky enough to get those trendy little jeans over my larger-than-average thighs, they rarely make it past my larger-than-average ass (thanks mom!).

Jean shopping for me is like bathing suit shopping for most girls. I absolutely dread it. I wait until the last possible second (like yesterday when my favorite pair ripped in the crotch for the fourth time) before making my way to the store. Once there, I bring armloads of jeans into the dressing room and try on every last one. There are often tears. And there is rarely a purchase.

Why, hello there.

Consider me your newest best friend. The kind of friend who always tells it to you straight (that new hair color? Kinda makes your eyebrows stick out like giant wooly caterpillars. That skirt? Fabulous. Legs up to here, mama!) has your best intentions at heart, believes in your smarts so much she’ll copy your homework, and always has an extra condom…should you need it, you vixen, you!

I got sex on the brain. But there’s tons of other amazingly interesting things in my bag of tricks, lest you think I’m a vapid sexaholic. Most importantly, I’m here to reassure you that you are not a freak. You are not alone. You are not stupid. You are not a nerd.

We’re all going through the same things.

I swear it and I promise. Let my one pair of designer jeans come apart at the seams if I lie.

So, as an initial token of our beautiful friendship, I would like to send you HERE:

Much like their shows (of which I have been to twice, and of which we will discuss at length soon), this website is both hilarious and hot. I cannot think of a better combination.
