America's Most Attractive Cities

San Diego sits at #2 on the list of America's Most Attractive Cities put out by Travel & Leisure. I have to agree that the majority of the men and women here are quite attractive.

Is it the amazing weather here that just makes everyone less stressed and more at ease? Is there something in the water? If so, I'm going to be sure to start drinking it more often.

Where does your city fall on the list?

Favorite Make Out Songs

Every once in a while, I get the urge to make out in the back seat of a car, just for old time's sake. Of course, we all have our little fantasies and included in mine are a few classic (but maybe not classy) songs playing in the background.

Over at the Sugar Network, one of the bloggers wrote about her ten favorite songs to make out to.

What are your favorites?

Better Than Sex (In the City)

A 25 year old male Daily Bedpost reader wants to know what there is in NYC to keep him busy (and sex-free) for 100 days. Poor guy. Why, oh why, would anyone do such a thing? I've heard about the couple who vowed to have sex every day for 100 days, but no sex at all? I'm curious about his guidelines to his experiment.

Speaking of sex, over at What Men Think (one of my favorite blogs), casual sex is the topic discussed today.

Casual sex can lead to unplanned pregnancies, which is the case for the woman who wrote Accidentally on Purpose: A One-Night Stand, My Unplanned Parenthood, and Loving the Best Mistake I Ever Made. I'll be reviewing this memoir by Mary F. Pols in the next few weeks.

Apparently, single moms are on the rise and many suggest that this is due to the high divorce rates and women choosing to have children on their own.

I couldn't let a day go by without a top ten list, or on line quiz so here's both: Top Ten Signs You're a Working Mom followed by What Hand Gesture Are You? And if you're not convinced that your only child will remain an only child, check out this post on Dating an Only Child.
