On Face Moles, "Perfection," and Shifting Dynamics
Am I the only one who can't figure out what "NSA sex" is supposed to stand for? I keep imagining two people secretly recording each other while fucking.

On Trans-Vaginal What Now?
@thebestjasmine Yep, I have too. I was in the ER and they pumped me up so full of fluids beforehand that they told me my bladder was too full, and would I please empty it, but only a little. Ever try only going to the bathroom a little bit when your bladder is about to explode? Good times.

@timesnewroman Heh, I don't think so, or at least, I don't think users have access to it (I'm sure Facebook probably does collect it, though).

@punkahontas I actually find it strange when people say the don't google, especially in the context of online dating where you're putting a whole lot of trust in a complete stranger. My reaction is usually, like, I guess you don't like me enough to actually be curious to see what else you can find about me? One of the most useful things for me is just to be able to confirm various facts a person has told me. Like the guy who guy who lied a lot about his age, as well as the fact that he had just gotten engaged around the same time he was contacting me. Or the guy who said he was an astronaut? Not an astronaut. (Okay, I made that one up.) The guy who said he won a bronze medal in the Olympics? Really did win a bronze medal in the Olympics. (That one was real.)

One thing to keep in mind when doing this - many sites log referral stats, and the person you're google-stalking may very well have access to those stats. Although the location attached to your IP may not be 100% accurate, the person whose blog you're clicking on a million times may very likely be able to figure out that it's you (particularly if it's, say, a low-traffic personal blog). One of the sites that came up for my ex's name would send him an email every time someone clicked on it, along with the person's location.

@Lily Rowan "I am SO GLAD there was no internet when I was a teenager." You don't even want to know how often I say this.

On Mixed Signals, Mirrors, and Two Accidental May-Decembers
A recent ex of mine was more obsessed with his weight than any woman I have ever met. Not only did he constantly weigh himself, but he would then report the number to me, and was particularly gleeful any time he lost weight (he was already very skinny). Note to everyone (dudes and ladies alike): don't do this. It's really annoying.

On Sleepy Songs
@NeenerNeener Ha, whoops, guess I really have missed some stuff. Anyway, I'm definitely on at least one list - that's how I did end up finding out (got an email about it a couple days before). And I was originally on a list when the book club was being planned, but at some point I bowed out (just too busy, and I don't really have the attention span required for it), and I haven't seen any more emails about it. Thanks for the info., though! I will definitely send an email just to make sure I'm on the right list(s).
