Obama Is A Snuggler, Too

By: Sip and Go Girl

Remember earlier in November 2012 when I said Republican former-vice presidential candidate was a snuggler, Mitt Romney was not a snuggler, Democrat Joe Biden was not a snuggler, and Democrat Barack Obama was a snuggler? Here is more proof. You probably already saw this pic. On election night, the President sent this via https://twitter.com/BarackObama. It’s he and the First Lady Michelle Obama.

So far, this is the most retweeted tweet in Twitter history.

He is indeed a snuggler!

What Is A Sip And Go Girl?

By: Sip and Go Girl

What is a Sip and Go Girl? People aren’t sure.

I knew people were unclear about the name when a former TV station colleague in California commented that more women than men would visit this website because, “Men aren’t genteel enough to sip.” Another friend recently suggested we meet up for a sip and go. And yet another person first thought the phrase was a euphemism for sex.

“Tales From Sip And Go Girl” Begin Next Week

Remember I talked about my Sip and Go Girl origins? I lept into a whirlwind of mostly online dating after my divorce, although I did plenty of dating before I got married.

Go to http://www.sipandgogirl.com/start-of-sipping-and-going/ from Novemvber 18 to refresh your memory.

Now, it’s time to begin actual tales of the dates and the men.

Read the first tale, “I Could Feel Your Heart,” next week. Eric the counselor claimed to feel true love emanating from my heart.

Wait. Who Is That Person (on Facebook)?

I’m on Facebook and have 520 friends.

On The DL has 737.

Wild One has 489.

High Hopes has 478.

Facebook is a busy place. And it lends a whole new dimension to relationships.

No, I’m not talking about Facebook as a dating site. Despite what my friend Gary says, the social media giant is not the new single’s scene.

Okay Gary might be kind of right. A 2008 Pew Internet and American Life Project shows one in five adults use Facebook for flirting.

Me And Relationships: Back To The 1980s

By: Sip and Go Girl

I really like hearing about the ins and outs of relationships. I mean I really do.

My interest was piqued in the last three years while I was going through a separation and divorce. The marriages and partnerships of those around me were things to ponder.

Wait.

Actually I can go back to the early 1990s to see my interest in relationships. In 1992 I broke up with my first real long-term boyfriend and then began to pursue not one but two cooks working at the same restaurant as me. Then, one of my coworkers came out to me and me only and I began hearing about his adventures with same-sex dating. Life was so fascinating.

We Were Inspired To Snuggle

By: Sip and Go Girl

I received this pic from new readers of Sip and Go Girl. All three of them (yes I’m including the dog) told me they were inspired to snuggle after seeing the first post, “Paul Ryan is a Snuggler.”

Paul Ryan Is A Snuggler

By: Sip and Go Girl

Paul Ryan is a snuggler.

It doesn’t matter which way you lean politically or who you voted for November 6.

Republican Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan is a snuggler. I can just tell. I’ve been a snuggler all my life and gosh darn it I know a snuggler when I see him. Or her.

My mother used to have two small ceramic figurines that she set on the windowsill above her kitchen sink. One figure was a bird. It represented my sister because my sister’s nickname is Tweety Bird. She was born with a big head and little body.

The other figure was a bunny rabbit. That was me because I was a Snuggle Bunny. I liked to cuddle up with my mother when I was little. Well apparently little has changed in a few decades. I still like to snuggle. The desire grows in times of trial and tribulation. Translation? When things are kind of sucky, I need the snuggle. And never underestimate the importance of snuggling with your friends and family.
