I adore the phrase "living water". Like "living rock."

And in Hebrew, it even rhymes! Mayim chayim.

I'm Nice Online, Incline Eon, Incline One, Ice Noel Inn, among many others.

I am A Dainty Loner! I love it!

Jeer gets hers.

Hil, I like your understanding of mikvah.

My name doesn't anagram to anything terribly interesting. My full name has a Z, a Y, and a G, and those seem to limit the number of words that can be made. There were a lot of options involving the word "zingier," though.

no sex during your period or for a week after.

If one is using a barrier method of contraception, this is pretty much the only safe time of the month to use no contraception at all. Rhythm Method.

What can (I imagine) get really frustrating for people who follow the rules exactly is that that has to be seven bloodless days. So if you get a little bit of spotting on the fifth day after your period ended, you've got to start counting a week again from that day.

I have a rant.

You know what I've always wished? I wish that sites like Match and Chemistry had a filter where if you're a fat chick, you can filter out men looking for skinny chicks.

I mean, it's nice and all that they'll trying to match personalities, but seriously, I'm honest about being a big girl. I don't mess around with "curvy" if I can help it, I just say, "yes, I'm short and plump, but I work out, too."

I'm sure that men would be appreciative of the ability to sort by body-type as well.

We're attracted to what we're attracted to. Some men want a fat chick, some are repulsed, and being physically attracted to someone is pretty freakin' important. I mean, I can filter by age and location. I should be able to make filters for education, as well.

I can't tell you how many times I've been given "matches" who've either dropped out of school in the third grade, or write like they did. I don't care what they look like, or how much money they make. Stupid is worse than no teeth on the attracto-meter for me.

Chemistry allows you something like ten options to explain why you didn't pick your "match" but none of them are, "This man wants an athletic/thin woman who loves camping and rugby. What the fuck were you thinking? You've insulted both of us with this "match." Why were we supposed to match? Because we both have lots of friends and like rotisserrie chicken? Really? There's nothing I would hate more than playing rugby while camping. I don't camp."

Whenever someone says something horrendously stupid about women, I mark "educational differences" in the "not interested" column.

I know there are dating sites that cater particularly to BBW, but they're always a bit skeevy and fetishy. I don't want to be someone's fetish.

I'd rather be able to find someone who finds some fat women attractive, like they may find some short women attractive. Like, it's not a deal-breaker, and I'd also like being with someone who likes zombie movies a whole lot and likes dogs and kids.

I don't even read profiles or look at photos anymore until I've scrolled down to see what sort of body-type they like. Sometimes this means that I don't have any matches for weeks, and that's okay. I'd rather not have to wade through it, though. Just send me the ones who I'm actually, you know, matchy with.

ION, sometimes I do love technology. The coworker I was waiting on earlier just texted me, because she knows I try not to check email outside of working hours, so I was able to tell her we couldn't do anything about it tomorrow anyway. We can both relax for the weekend! (I mean, theoretically I could have dealt with it tonight, but that really was never going to happen.)
