What He'd Like To See You In

Cosmo asked guys “How do you like a girl to dress on a first date?”

64% said “Tight jeans and a hot top.”

One guy summed it up by saying that “This kind of outfit shows off her stuff without making her look like she’s trying too hard. It’s casual, so you know she’s game for anything.”

The runner-up was the little black dress – with 36% of guys saying that’s what they’d like to see women wearing on a first date.

Ways To Revive Your Relationship

Ways To Revive Your Relationship (according to marriage counselors and therapists)

1. Just Do It! Get romantic even if you're not in the mood. Once you get going, you might get into it.

2. Attack the Problem, Not the Person. Try talking about the problem you're struggling with instead of pointing fingers at the other person and blaming them.

3. Praise...Even If You Don't Feel Like It. People are deeply attracted to those who are interested in them and appreciate them. So shower your partner with interest and adoration.

4. Slow Down. Be present. Notice your partner's good hair day or that they're wearing a sexy shirt.

5. Talk. Talk gets taken for granted and sometimes gets lost entirely. Spend time every day talking with your partner..and not about the bills.

6. Bring Back The Fun. Change it up. Bring something new to the table every month: try a class together, an activity, remember the things that were fun when you were dating and revisit them.

Ways Women Have Replaced Men With Technology

1. Artificial Insemination. Jennifer Anniston will star in an upcoming movie called The (Turkey) Baster! No lie!

2. HGTV (my favorite channel!!!!!) and Power Tools. Fix-it projects used to be the domain of men. Not anymore. HGTV along with do-it-yourself stores like Home Depot and Lowes have given women the access to tools and the know-how to use them.

3. Bug Spray. Men used to be handy because they were in charge of spider-squashing. These days, women no longer need men to step on the bugs. They just need to reach for the Raid.

4. Pepper Spray and Tasers. Once upon a time women were afraid to be out alone at night without a male bodyguard. and

5. Well...you know.

Turnpike Series

I received a funny email from a loyal listener and Mets fan today that I wanted to pass along to all of you, sent in by Ted from Eatontown with his view of this World Series:

As a Mets fan I am happy it's Philadelphia vs. the Yankees. Why you ask? Well, ONE of these teams will win the World Series BUT one of these teams will LOSE and that is the Mets fan's reward. We get to see agony, disappointment, sorrow, and all the things we felt in our '09 season on the faces of either the Yankees followers or the Phillie fans.

As a bonus, maybe the umpires can miss a call or two in the series so the Yank/Philly fans can lose sleep, cry, pout, and vomit over someone being out to get their team the way we did with the Mets.

World Series ticket: $300
World Series Program: $50.00
Parking: $25.00
Umpire blowing a call in this World Series: PRICELESS

Eight Pesky Behaviors That Can Kill A Relationship

1. Having an affair with his 'potential'. Acting like he'll be great following an 'extreme makeover' means you don't like him unless he changes.

2. Major mood swings. It's not good to take your personal stress out on your man. An occasional mood swing happens to the best of us, but when moody is the norm it'll kill a relationship.

3. Complaining to your friends. We all like to blow off steam but if you're picking up the phone every time he upsets you then you're going to have more of a relationship with your friends than you would if you communicated with your man.

4. Melodrama. If dating you means he has to get you flowers every time he leaves the toilet seat up...he's likely to find a lower maintenance girl.

5. Mothering him. Taking care of each other comes with the terrirory, but if you're the one cutting his nights short because you know he's got a 'big day tomorrow' or yelling for him to turn off the video game, you're rapidly turning into a mother instead of a lover.

6. Too much time together. Avoid being glued to your mate 24/7. Have a life.

7. Jealousy. You find a guy who actually tells you he loves you, but you're still checking his phone, hacking his email, and suspicious of his every moment away from you. A bit of jealousy is normal, but letting it run your life is unattractive.

8. Getting too comfortable. Eventually routine kicks in, but that doesn't mean it's time to abandon all effort. Be sure to keep romance alive and grooming a priority. Take the time to look your best and show you're not taking him for granted.

Radiothon Thank You's

There were so many people who helped us to have a successful radiothon this year, but there were a few people who helped me personally that I wanted to mention, too!

My close friends who stopped by to keep me company will get private thank-you's, but I really wanted to say thank you here to: Tracy at Salon By The Sea in Sea Girt for doing my hair (and playing our radio station!), Andrea Rosenfeld from Hot Rox Jewelry for her generous donation, Michelle from Balanced Body Massage and Wellness Center in Neptune for the fantastic massage after about 16 hours on the air, and Leigh Ann Borelli from Face To Fase Facial Spa and Cosmetic Studio in downtown Toms River for the facial and fresh makeup at 1 am (Terry Loftus and Laurie Cataldo also loved the facial massages!) and Leigh Ann's generous donation of auction items was much appreciated, too! I am lucky to have such incredibly creative, kind, and generous girlfriends in my!

Thank you so much!
