All Aboard the Yes Train
The summer of 2012 I was in a bit of rut to say the least. I was at a point in my life where everything was colliding.School became a hot zone of pamphlets, posters and people hounding you to make present decisions about your future, as if everyone had a detailed timeline of where they wanted to be at the age of 21. 5-year and 10-year plans were the norm.
Where Hungry Sinners Gather: Brunch
The brunch date is hot in Calgary. Take a drive down 4th street or through Bridgeland on any given weekend and witness lineups of brave Calgarians waiting anxiously for some eggs, despite the sub zero temperatures.
Brunch at Cleaver starts with a reservation. Amen.
HOW TO: Look Fresh!
Was it another one of those late nights dancing, drinking, or binge-watching series on Netflix? Was it on a work night? Forgive yourself – these things happen, especially during this busy Holiday season.
If you’ve hit the snooze button for the third time, you may not have very long to make your tired, puffy face presentable to the world. After chugging some water and tossing on a smile, we have a few quick tricks to help you ladies look fresh and awake!
The Festive Date: The Top 10 Best Dates in Calgary this December
’tis the season for holiday parties, pints of christmas cheer and the inevitable awkward family get togethers.
It’s natural to get caught up in the madness of the season – work events, shopping for gifts and trying to cram as much work as possible into a few hours so not to miss out on any of the festivities. Not to mention trying to look your best while doing it.
Not a Doctor- Part Three
Is “I’m not ready” a cop-out? Or is it a real thing? Female, 26
It’s real. The person saying this more than likely wants to move on and that is why they invited you into there life. But they are holding onto something from the past. Pretty good chance you aren’t the one. Basically you are Noah’s side piece from the Nicholas Sparks hit novel turned movie favourite The Notebook– just there to pass the time on a cold and lonely night.
The Zoo Lights Date

Get excited Calgary, your favourite post is back and better than ever! We spent this past weekend hanging out at The Taboo Show. We asked people where is the craziest place they’ve ever had sex, and the answers were pretty wild. It was hard to pick our favourites, so we decided to share them bit by bit over the next few posts. Read along for some steamy stories and make sure to check back to see if yours made the cut.

Guy Hot vs. Girl Hot
As I sit down to write this post, I can’t help but laugh at my outfit choice de jour. I am currently sporting unisex blundstone boots, a floral blouse with exaggerated poofy shoulders, and a white t-shirt tucked into dropped crotch trousers.
Not a Doctor- Part Two
Is it bad if a guy postpones a first date? –Female, 26
Depends- do you believe the excuse he gave you as to why? Based on the fact you asked, I’m guessing you have some doubts. Life is busy and things do come up that take priority over someone so new in a persons life, like the girl he was out with 3 days earlier, who was suddenly available again tonight. First date kiss? Or third date get lucky? Life is all about prioritizing.
The Year of 300 Dates
It’s been a year, almost to the day, since I went on my first date after what I think was a two year hiatus. I hadn’t been anyone’s girlfriend in 3 years. And I hadn’t “dated”, which I think means you’re pretty much exclusive and only having sex with one another, but without the titles, in 2 years. I’m still not clear on the terminology.
Not a Doctor.
