Happy Sunday everyone! As you know, it’s quotable sunday and I thought I’d share a little segment from one of my all-time favorite movies: Now and Then.

Roberta: You can’t get pregnant from french-kissing!
Chrissy: I know that, beetle-brain, but it’s common knowledge that if you tongue-kiss a boy, he automatically thinks you’ll do the deed with him. They can’t help it. They’re driven.
Samantha: Oh? And what deed would that be?
Chrissy: You know… planting the seed and watering the flower. Isn’t that how it works?

I will always love this movie. Enjoy your Sunday! I’m off to get my drink on and watch the South Boston St. Patty’s Day parade.

I wish I were here…that is Spring Break 2009 in Cancun, Mexico. Or really just by a palm tree for that matter…in the sunshine. Palm trees & sunshine make me happy, and I think we could all use a little extra *happy* today. Enjoy!

Happy Sunday all! I’m out skiing in the sunshine right now, but here’s a lesson from one of my favorite bands of all time in the meantime…enjoy!

The other day I told my boyfriend that I had a stomach ache, probably due to the fact that I can’t, um, go to the bathroom in his apartment. “WHAT?! That’s not good!” “But it’s gross,” I added. “Plus you only have one bathroom so you’d know,” I added. He started cracking up, and told me that I was crazy and that there is spray for that kind of stuff. He then asked what I’d ever do when I’m married and I simply replied, “That’s gonna suck.” What can I say, I have problems sh*tting where I don’t live.

But what I loved most about the conversation was that he was not grossed out in the least bit. In fact, he encouraged it and told me he’d “cheer me on” because it’s a health issue. HA. I hate those guys that think girls poop out sparkles and always smell like sugar and cupcakes and goodness. NOT TRUE buddies. In fact, we have bodily needs just as much as men, and it’s detrimental to our health not to let them out freely.

Next time I’m stuck in one of those, er, situations, I’m going to try to remember that, and maybe … Read More!

Let’s be honest: some people loath Valentine’s Day, and some people love it. Single ladies usually hate the damn day (I know, as I was one of them for 23 straight years). I even cried in 5th grade because the boy I had a crush on gave a Valentine to my best friend and not me. Then in college I had to watch all of my roommates get serenaded with balloons, roses, and fancy dinners as I sat there alone. Valentine’s day SUCKED BALLS and let me tell you all that advertising and lovey dovey stuff in the stores didn’t help one bit. Seriously…what are they trying to do to the singles out there?

This will be the first Valentine’s Day I’ll celebrate with a boy…who I actually really like. Gee, I feel like I’m in Elementary School all over again. While I am super duper ecstatic, I still feel for all those V-Day haters. C’mon I was one of them for my entire life…a gal doesn’t forget. BUT luckily I’ve discovered a way for BOTH singles and couples to enjoy the red & white day of love. Love shmuv. This has nothing to do with boyfriends or dates or … Read More!

So as you know I usually do “Quotable Sunday” over here at Healthy Chicks, but I decided to change it up for the Suberbowl’s sake and do Video Sunday instead. I’m sure many of you are super excited for today’s game, but me…well I go for the tasty snacks (um bean dip, puhlease) and hilarious commercials. Oh, and the raffle where you’re assigned a few boxes with numbers (whatever that’s called). I even won one year, having no idea what was going on during the game! What can I say, I’m totally one of those girls.

Well here’s one of the top commercials from last year…can’t wait to see what this year brings! Enjoy!

The L word has been flowing around everywhere lately…maybe it’s the Valentine’s Day season or something in the air but I’m telling you it’s EVERYWHERE. And unfortunately, lots of these L Bombs have been dropped on accident. EEK! Take the girl on the Bachelor the other night for example – I think her name is Chantal – who said “Everything you do just makes me love you even more…I mean like..er…oops.” AWKWARD.

Then there was my roommate who recently said “I love you poopsie” to the guy she just started dating after he took care of her while throwing up. That was another one of those “oops” moments. Luckily he told her to shut up and go back to bed (phew). I have another roommate in college who used to throw it out there to anyone and everyone, even the mailman or strange studdy buddy from her German class. Sometimes it just comes out. So take this lesson with open ears, and try to stick with “I like you a lottttt” until you really mean it.
