March Condition of the Month – We are Princesses

Naughty Princesses Assemble! We’ve been at this whole blogging thing for a few months now (so far so good??) and I figured it was time you folks learned a bit more about the four of us and why we go by the pseudonyms we do! […]

The Perks of Being a Wallflower

I do not have many friends. And I am absolutely OK with that. Part of moving to a new place halfway across the world is that you know you’ll have to start over and make all new friends. And, being a person who does not […]

Feeling SAD on V-Day

It’s that time of the year again…the time when the stores are full of pink and red candies, heart-shaped balloons, and musical greeting cards (well, except where I live). The time of the year when single girls everywhere eat too much chocolate and wish they […]

Another Post About Balls

Last week The Little Merskank posted a rant about balls. But she was talking about the Cinderella type of balls. I am talking about testicles. Nuts. Nards. Apple bags. I am talking about balls and birth control. Part of being in your twenties is considering […]

Condition of the Month- February

What is an ideal or aspiration that you held in high school but have since let go of? It has almost been six years since the naughty princesses all graduated high school.  Our ten-year reunions are still a ways off but close enough to make […]

A House Divided

I’m not usually one to delve into politics, but this week I’ve got something on my mind. I’ve seen a lot in the news the past few days about the Benghazi hearings, in which Secretary of State Clinton took heat from Republican members of Congress […]

The Arranged Marriage and the Hook-up

“So, did you have an arranged marriage?” This was the question one of my colleagues at school asked me the other day, completely out of the blue. The notion seemed so absurd that I didn’t even take the time to formulate an articulate response. I […]

The Big Lie

You have to go to college to get a good job. I heard this maxim my entire life, and, as a result, I was college-bound from the time I was in preschool. Well, the brain-washing worked: I am now a college graduate working as a […]

January Condition of The Month

It’s that time again. Time for all four princesses to answer one burning question. Question: What is something that your parents don’t understand about you that you wish they did? Cinderslut: My parents and I don’t have fun in the same ways. To be honest, […]

All I Want For Christmas Is You

What do you buy for the guy who has everything? As Christmas day approached, this was the question I was pondering in regards to a certain husband of mine. I’ve always known boys are more difficult to buy for than girls, my dad and brothers […]

Baby Talk

No, no, this isn’t what you think. This isn’t the blog in which Cinderslut announces she’s caught the baby bug, although now that you mention it there are a heckuva lotta cute babies on facebook these days. That blog might come one day, but not […]

Cinderslut’s Christmas Playlist

It’s that time of year! Even though my chances of a white Christmas are about one in a million this year, I can still get into the spirit with my favorite holiday tunes. So here they are! Hark the Herald Angels Sing by Mannheim Steamroller […]
