Debby Herbenick

Hi, my name is Debby Herbenick.

I like friends, family, flowers, leaves, beaches, warm weather, gardening and the smell of morning. I plant bulbs and dream about them coming up in the spring.

I write about sex at www.MySexProfessor.com

Here I write mostly about things that are not so overtly about sex.

“It Will Not Change”

It will not change now
After so many years;
Life has not broken it
With parting or tears;
Death will not alter it,
It will live on
In all my songs for you
When I am gone.

Same photo I posted last year, because I’ve haven’t seen one since that is as terribly moving.

Agreed.

I used to love this show. Once I even dressed like one of the misfits for a kid’s birthday party (a long story involving clowns).

“

It’s never going to be over, so stop waiting for the good stuff. As of now, spend a minimum of one hour a day doing whatever you are waiting to do until your finances are more secure, or until the children have grown and left home, or until you have finished your obligations and you feel free to do what you really want to do. Don’t wait any longer. Don’t believe in the myth of “one day when everything will be different.” Do what you love to do, what you are waiting to do, what you’ve been born to do, now.

Spend at least one hour a day doing whatever you simply love to do — what you deeply feel you need to do, in your heart — in spite of the daily duties that seem to constrain you. However, be forewarned: you may discover that you don’t, or can’t, do it; that in fact, your fantasy of your future life is simply a fantasty.

David Deida, from The Way of the Superior Man. You can laugh at the title but the book is phenomenal. (via jakelodwick)

Lovely cherry blossom tree themed cake from Bloomingfoods. I’m going to take it into work tomorrow. The cake is chocolate with cherry layers. Yum.

“What happens if you fall in love?”
“You don’t believe that, do you?”
“What, it’s love, not Santa Claus.”

“What happened, why didn’t they work out?”
“What always happens… life.”
***
“Get over her!”
“I don’t want to get over her. I want to get her back.”

So excited for this!!!

I cannot wait.

My students' videos about sex Last semester, my uber-talented students created videos about various sexuality topics. Several of them posted theirs on YouTube for all to see. Enjoy!
