I’m currently in the midst of a chaotic move, and let me tell you: I’m one more heavy dresser away from blowing my brains out. Now, I admit to taking the cheap (and painful) route: My girlfriend and I rented a small moving truck for about $140,...
“No, you can’t use the water fountain.” “Why?” “Because, here’s the thing… Water fountains are gross. There’s tons of germs on there and I don’t want you to use one. Ever.” This was the exact conversation I had with my three-year-old recently when we were at a...
Like the first day of school, therapy (aka, the first time you introduce yourself to a complete stranger and confide in them your deepest, most abhorrent flaws in the hope of becoming a slightly better-adjusted human being) can be nerve-racking. In fact, for men especially, who —...
