Vows Videos on the New York Times website

These are short videos of how people met their spouses, including one with Will Ferrell. It's a fun way to get inspired to keep dating despite setbacks. Here's the link.

Thanks Laurie for sharing this with me!

Single? Don't want to be? Read this.

1) Pick up Marie Claire, February 2010. Even though this is for women, men I think this applies to some of you as well.

2) Read the interview on pages 71 and 72. I have to warn you the last paragraph is a heartbreaker.

Love is important and precious, never forget that.
