This Slut Votes (Long Read)
Watch out y’all, I’m about to get all political up in here. First, let me address the language I used for this post. The word “slut” can be used as an insult, yes, but I don’t take it like that. I don’t think there is anything wrong with me having control of my own body … Continue reading »
They Put Smart Girls In Glamour :)
I created a mini meme inspired by this quote – and this actor (Noah Mills, swoon!) – from 2 Broke Girls, and then it ended up on Tumblr and Pinterest, and today it made the print issue of Glamour magazine! (Click images to enlarge) Caroline: What’d you see in that guy anyway? Max: He had … Continue reading »

Big Image – 2 Broke Girls Quote & Yummy Shirtless Noah Mills
A post I did almost a year ago – They Make Smart Girls Stupid – has gone, as they say, viral on the interwebs. Okay, nobody says that. But saying interwebs makes me laugh. Anyway, it’s been making the rounds on Pinterest, and a large high-res version was recently requested of me. If anyone else … Continue reading »
Found Finds July: Wise Words & Dirty Minds
Here are my favorite photos of random finds and memorable moments this July. Just as an FYI – I am fully aware of how ridiculously immature some of these are. They still crack me up :) Isn’t that a lovely sentiment to pair with a cup of tea? I’m sorry, I had to go there … Continue reading »
@JimmyFallon: Fat Jokes Don’t Sell Ice Cream
You guys know I love Jimmy Fallon a whole lot. I think he’s incredibly talented and funny, his show is one of my faves, and his monologues usually hit it out of the park…except for the whole tendency to tell fat jokes that aren’t even very funny. They’re usually aimed at people I don’t like very … Continue reading »
Gutter Heart
I gave you my heart You threw it in the gutter I once had your heart But you gave it to another You took such great pride In kicking me to the curb You tried but can’t deny You wanted me to hurt But gutters are fine places For hearts to rest within And curbs … Continue reading »
I’m Obsessed with WordFoto
I’m in love with my new WordFoto app for the iPhone. It takes my favorite thing (words) and artistically arranges them atop my favorite images. Love! I’m still figuring out how to use all of the options – I’m comfortable with the preset choices but the custom fine-tuning is a little confusing. Once I master … Continue reading »
Found: Words of Wisdom

Best Father Ever? Oh Yeah #ThatsMyDad
Obviously it’s true, because Late Night with Jimmy Fallon has featured not one, not two, but THREE of my father/daughter tweets on their site. This clearly demonstrates how my dad and I are three times as awesome as most other people. (Sorry, non-awesomes, we just can’t help it!) I am still not the proud author … Continue reading »
Is “Brave” Merida An Official Disney Princess?
Or, to put it another way – is Disney Brave enough to make Merida an official princess? Edited to add – yes! It’s official – Merida from Disney/Pixar’s Brave will have her coronation as the 11th member of the Disney Princess Line Up in July of 2013! Click for more info :) Right this second, no.

I ♥ Myself :)
And so can you! Sorry, that phrase has been stuck in my head ever since I first heard about Stephen Colbert’s book I Am A Pole – (And So Can You!) Anyway, saw this on the street and it made me extra happy. Hopefully it will make you extra happy, too.
#WorstFamilyTrip: Not The One I Just Got Home From :)
Oh Jimmy. Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. Someday you will speak my name (well, my Twitter handle at least) on your show! In the meantime I am more than pleased to be on the featured tweets page again.

The Circle Game
And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We’re captive on the carousel of time We can’t return, we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game – “The Circle Game”, Joni Mitchell

#MySuperPower: Awesome at Tweets, Hashtags, & Captions
Hooray! I’m still hoping to hear Jimmy Fallon say “this next tweet is from @corinacorina“, but in the meantime I am ridiculously pleased with myself for making the featured tweets list. I already had one hashtag (“My Caption Skills Have Reached New Highs, Y’all”) under my belt, so now I just need one more to … Continue reading »
“Unfortunately, We Are Unable To Offer You Coverage At This Time”
You know, I don’t think they consider this all too “unfortunate” at all. That part really annoys me – skip the BS words that you think connote sympathy and let’s just be honest here. You are, in fact, able to offer me coverage. You choose not to. Therefore it is not unfortunate at all, except … Continue reading »
Depression & Anxiety
Usually, those words – “depression” and “anxiety” – label conditions that I have. I like that way of phrasing it, because it implies a sense of control for me. I have these things, yes, but they do not have me. Usually. For the past fifteen years, I have had these conditions. I am usually able … Continue reading »
