Mrs. Enginerd - Nerd Whisperer
The worst part of moving to a new home when you are in your 30s is letting go of the stuff 20 year old you bought with those first paychecks. Most if the items are still in good condition but you don’t really need them anymore. Some were gifts from people you adore but have […]
Virginia Johnson and Bill Masters are real life sex researchers who built their careers on demystifying sex myths and misinformation.

Back in 2008, when I got married and the recession […]
