The Rocky Road to Love

God bless LL! I think she just found the man of my dreams:

Love is an opportunity, not a prize. It should be pursued greedily, recklessly, with an adamant heart. Kiss men, and move on. Maybe one day you’ll kiss a guy and he’ll turn into a guy who’ll march through tornadoes to get you tampons, admit when he’s wrong, and eat ice cream naked in bed with you. The point is: give regular people you date the chance to be extraordinary without the maudlin fairy tale expectation. The favor will be returned.

Lastly, ladies: if you’re heartbroken, grow a pair of ladyballs. Buck up, listen to some Patsy Cline, and toss back nice stiff shot of bourbon. Then try out this Snapple cap bon mot: “Men. Can’t live with ‘em, good thing they’ll keep making more.”
Yup. There's a guy I could respect! (I'd even make him pot roast. Meatloaf wllith mashed potatoes, pan gravy, niblet corn and apple pie for dessert.) Straight to the blogroll with him!

Still haven't found that perfect relationship or in one that's not what you wanted it to be? I picked up this book found via Dr. Helen recently. Holy crap! It explains just about everything.

It doesn't bash men or women... but it does give good insight, without all the cutseyness of that Men Are From Mars idiocy.

If you are inclined to do the romantic thing, Alpana has some ideas for reasonably priced summer wines to tuck into that picnic basket full of goodies.
