love this clip from Crumb not just because of the artist's self-awareness of his process but his drawings girls he had crushes on in school and thinking of where they are now ("Jesus..."). His wife Aline is also really funny...and it's interesting that she seems to have acquired his vocal intonations; they speak very similarly. Anyway, good, weird stuff to start the weekend...

It's not enough that she's stunning, a former model, a recording artist and the wife of the president of France. Carla Bruni-Sarkozy sounds like she's also a fun girl to be friends with. This story on the ABC news blog says that Bruni confided to Michelle Obama - just a little girl talk between first ladies - that the Bruni-Sarkozy's once made a head of state wait for them while they finished having sex and asked Michelle if she and Barack had ever done the same. First of all, I love that they didn't rush to finish just because Queen Elizabeth (or some President or Prime Minister) was waiting. Then I love imagining various world leaders thinking "Wait a minute...I had to wait for them! That was me!" But mostly I love that she made Michelle Obama her slumber-party friend with an immediate girl-talk over-share. After this kiss-and-tell the girls one wonders if the girls made paper fortune tellers to see who their next husbands would be and then scar

My pal Bryce Gruber posted  these hysterical wedding pics on The Luxury Spot . Makes you wonder if some of these people had writers from SNL as their wedding planners and/or exactly how much booze was flowing before  the wedding. Bryce always has the coolest posts, from Salvador Dali jewelry  to the  rain drum  (an umbrella with different panels that makes different sounds when the rain beats down) to  homemade Pop Tarts  (God in heaven!) she's my kinda girl - click any of the links check her posts out!         And now we can add these pictures to  my  8 Reasons Marriage Doesn't Matter  list which originally ran on Alternet but I'm happy to see is also on  Democratic Underground . Dominating the interwebs, one site at a time. Wahoo!

Wahoooooo! So happy to see my friend Sheri Winston has been honored by her peers with her book Women's Anatomy of Arousal being named book of the year by the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists. The book truly is fabulous - I reviewed it on this blog awhile back. It's available locally at Fairvilla Megastore and online at Amazon and is a treasure trove of sexual secrets that aren't so secret - it's just that no one bothered to tell them to you before and finally, in Sheri, you can have one of the most awesome teachers there is. I wrote about Sheri's classes at Florida School for Holistic Living for Alternet in one of my all-time favorite pieces Sex is Natural - So Why Are So Many People So Bad At It? and learned A LOT from her - evidently the august body of AASECT thinks you can, too. So buy the book! I mean, I know you're a very accomplished lover and all, but there's always something new to learn and you'

Sexting doesn't have to just be for the teenagers who shouldn't be doing it anyway...even if your squeeze is not at your fingertips they kind of still can be. Check out my  quickie sexting tips  (well...depending on how fast you type) on  MyPleasure . And while you're at it - check out this 2005 story with the plots of "Pride and Prejudice" and "Romeo and Juliet" summarized into text speak . Gr8 stuff! LOL :)

I love love love this image. It's by Nina Paley who made  "Sita Sings the Blues"  which is on my list of reasons life is good and was the subject of my very first post on this blog. This image looks like it's of the fierce  Kali  but it really is an image of desire... but you have to  click on Nina's blog to read her explanation.  It's one I related to perfectly and figure you might, too. And then, of course, after you get what you desire, you feel like this: only hopefully with not quite so many people staring at you.
