A woman I work with grew up in Texas and her family still lives there. She and her husband have been living in NJ for a few years, but her husband recently received a job offer in Texas. The plan was for him to go down there,...

skewedsolipsism I wouldn't have thought her to be the type, but then again, that's generally where we're wrong about people. It's quite possible. She's quieter and more reserved about her life but she was always one to talk about getting up early and going to bed very early,...

I was talking to some fellow freelance writers and the discussion turned to whether or not there were really ways to make any substantial amounts of money on the internet. As in, could we make a full-time living out of freelance...

skewedsolipsism You're absolutely right! There are no quick fixes. I do like places like AC because they give me a place to jump in and get my feet wet again while making a few dollars. Like I said before, I guess dollars are better than pennies. I have also had another job...

skewedsolipsism Hi Michele, thanks for writing! I didn't mean to sound negative so much. I was trying to paint a picture of exactly what myLot does as opposed to what people may think it does. I saw somewhere else that earnings may go up after so many posts. I'd love to know...

skewedsolipsism True, but I think there are also more legitimate freelance writing jobs out there that would offer more than just $1-$3 per 500 words. Everyone has to start somewhere, but dollars are still better than pennies!! :)

skewedsolipsism Cher, that's what I'm trying to say. You're lucky if $1 per day is enough to buy a sandwich anymore, let alone live on. Therefore, I really don't believe myLot is good if you are trying to write for a living.

I'd like to share a few tips for those who spend alot of time at work and on computers throughout the day. You should always get up and walk away from your desk, at least once per hour. Keep up with stretching, rest your eyes, and...

skewedsolipsism Sounds great! I used to be able to get up and walk around the outside of the building where I worked before. There isn't as much space to do so in my new office, but hopefully I'll be working at home soon so I can do whatever I need!

skewedsolipsism The strangest part is that I am not exactly an inactive person. I study martial arts and am on the dojo floor every day - but I had gotten away from a strict cardio and weight routine. Your body really does need all different types of exercise!

Hi guys, Looking for honest opinions here: If a girl likes to occassionally make out with other guys in club from time to time (nothing serious), does this mean she is cheating on her boyfriend?!

skewedsolipsism I do think it's still a serious thing. I can't imagine why a person who is in a valid, committed, loving, caring relationship would need or want to seek fulfillment from another person (unless there was a mutual participation agreement amongst all three, which...

Has anyone here seen Apocalypto? I watched it this weekend and at first didn't think I'd be interested, but once I got into it, I was hooked. I watched it over two days, because of the subtitles - I am sometimes distracted while...

skewedsolipsism I'm glad you enjoyed it. It seems like there are very few movies that actually have an impact like that on viewers anymore. I tend to rent movies instead of watching them in theatres for just this reason. I get tired of wasting my time and money. At least when...

There is a common misconception regarding fat and fat loss that I'd like to point out to those who may not know. Fat cells can not actually be "lost." Fat cells have the ability to shrink and expand. If a fat cell expands too...

skewedsolipsism Most of us do. Unfortunately, those that lose weight the fastest tend to do it by means of unhealthy fad diets or starvation. So, stick with whatever you do to stay healthy and don't worry about your weight as much in the grand scheme of things. Slowly but...

skewedsolipsism No strain, just soreness. I do definitely have a buildup of lactic acid in my muscles BUT getting out there and staying active again last night really helped to work that out. Of course, I did another set of stretches last night as well, which got the toxins...

skewedsolipsism Oh! I typed such a long response to this and it disappeared. The jist of it was: Hollywood always has to throw in a few curves to give a movie appeal to the general public. Unfortunately, the movie makers depended on the public's understanding of Mayan history...

skewedsolipsism I really wish I had seen this in theatres. It was probably amazing on the big screen. Unfortunately, time generally forces me to wait and rent movies after they're off the big screen!
