Safe sex, don´t forget it. ;-)

Colored, flavored, textured, warming, lubricated or non-lubricated... It doesn´t really matter the one you use. Just make sure you use it. 
If you are trying to find something a little bit different, innovative or even funny, have a look at this imported glow-in-the-dark condom!!! haha 
The unit price of this, hmmm, original product is around R$ 20-25 here in Brazil. 


Protect yourself and the one you love. Protect life. And learn from the ad below:


Happy Valentine´s Day!!!

In the USA and in other places around the world, Valentine´s Day is celebrated on February 14th in the name of St. Valentine. In Brazil, it is celebrated on June 12th, as all lovers know.
I find it funny, interesting or at least curious this thing of loving someone. You know, the explosion of emotions that nobody will ever be able to explain well enough: having butterflies in your stomach, faster heartbeats, feeling anxious, nervous, perhaps insecure, jealous, suuuuuuuuper excited, happy... complete. When you catch yourself thinking about someone... desiring someone... all that...
But I didn´t want anything too romantic or too sweet for today´s post. I actually wanted something naughty, something wicked! :oP
What on Earth could be better than this precious comic strip I have chosen for you? It dates from 1986 and I simply love it!
I wish everyone a lovely Valentine´s Day!!!

Smell a rat???

"Smell a rat" is an idiomatic expression and just by looking at the word "rat" we are able to guess that this informal expression is probably connected to a negative idea... 
Most people are afraid of rats (terrified, maybe?). Some people aren´t, but they surely don´t think rats are cute... 
So, having this in mind, we can assume that the idiom in question is related to something bad. And it is.
If you smell a rat, you begin to suspect/realize/feel that something wrong or dishonest is happening in a particular situation. It could be that someone is trying to harm you, to deceive you...
Example: If I don´t send my boss the sales report today, he will smell a rat and it will be worse. 
Everyone may think "smell a rat" does not sound nice. Well, I would like to remind you all that in Portuguese we say something much worse, don´t we? ;oP
Have a wonderful week!
