Motivational/Inspirational Quotes
I love Ayn Rand: "Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all.

Harry Potter Fans - What do you think?
I think J.K. Rowling needs to write a Harry Potter spin off, but not a tacky one. I want the series to follow Voldemort's first uprising - potentially through the eyes of Lily Potter? What do you guys think? I think it could be a dark, more adult version that follows Lily from right after Hogwarts to her death... Maybe I…

Sex and Calories (Adult Content!)
So for reals, someone needs to wear their heart rate monitor during sex and in different positions. I'm just saying - certain girl-on-top positions are essentially glorified squats, THAT should totally count! Not to mention, I KNOW my heart rate gets up there and I'm breathing hard. I totally don't want to treat my sex…
