Yes, I spend a LOT of time reading blogs.  Some are better than others.  Some I choose to share for various reasons.  Here's a couple to check out:

It's funny, insightful and clever while remaining approachable.  It could be that he looks like a friend of mine? But seriously, Nando offers some spicy dish on dating, life, relationships and even some grooming advice, and yes, he has a book too.

Anatomy of a Pilot is the brainchild of a very good friend of mine, Kristina Meek.  What does this have to do with dating and relationships?  Nothing.  But it's a very good example of a blog with a niche and resourceful to those looking for insights into the formula and story that goes into writing a tv pilot.  And could save you some time in actually watching one, discovering that you really don't like it.  So in essence, you may not have to waste your time watching one of these shows and spend more time, perhaps, dating or doing something else.

Maneaters Blog sounds fierce, right?  It sounds like a ball-busting, man-hating, angry bunch of women who want nothing more than to chew men up and spit them back out or, well, hmm.  But there is more to this blog than an angry rant against men who have 'done you wrong'.  It's oriented towards women who want to stop "playing the victim and owning their love life."  Angela Jordan writes on topics such as learning to love yourself first, practicing some self honesty while mixing it up with some other how-to's on sex and dating and some of her own experiences. 

Not that this is turning into an advice column

But I thought I'd share, not sure who the author is but really funny:

3. I've suddenly decided I want to kick someone's ass and honestly believe I could do it too.

4. In my last trip to "pee" I realize I now look more like Tammy Faye Baker than the goddess I was just four hours ago.

5. I drop my 3:00 a.m. hoagie on the floor (which I'm eating even though I'm not at all hungry), pick it up, and carry on eating it.

6. I start crying and telling everyone I see that I love them sooooo much.

7. There are less than three hours before I'm due to start work.

8. I've found a deeper/spiritual side to the creepy guy sitting next to me.

9. The man I'm flirting with used to be my 5th grade teacher.

10. The urge to take off articles of clothing, stand on a table and sing becomes strangely overwhelming.

11. My eyes just don't seem to want to stay open on their own so I keep them half closed and think it looks exotically sexy.

12. I've suddenly taken up smoking and become really good at it.

13. I yell at the bartender, who (I think) cheated me by giving me just soda, but that's just because I can no longer taste the vodka.

14. I think I'm in bed, but my pillow feels strangely like the kitchen floor.

15. I start every conversation with a booming, "Don't take this the wrong way but..."

16. I fail to notice that the toilet lid's up when I sit on it.

17. My hugs begin to resemble wrestling take-down moves.

18. I'm tired so I just sit on the floor (wherever I happen to be standing) and take a quick nap.
