Whenever you are feeling a little down, just make a list of all of your favorite things. My list is listed above for an example. Whenever I feel sad or need a pick up, I grab my list and choose something that would make me happy. My idea of a great night would be renting a movie, curling up in a blanket on my couch, and relaxing. What would your list look like?

Every girl at some point in time is in need of a good magazine to flip through. Over the past year we at The Comfortable Girl have been searching for a magazine that was interesting, inspiring, and fun to read. We will share with you some magazines that you may have overlooked in your quest for light reading. Bear in mind that a few of these magazines won’t have a picture of Angelina Jolie staring up at you enticing you to buy it. (Some will, of course.) Here are some magazines The Comfortable Girl thinks you might find… well, comfortable.

Ready Made

ReadyMade is a bimonthly print magazine for people who like to make stuff, who see the flicker of invention in everyday objects — the perfectly round yolk in the mundane egg.

Could it be possible to guarantee that the next time you step on an airplane you will be guaranteed a nice pleasant trip? Well… not exactly, but this is the closest you will ever come to reaching that point. Today while looking up some airline information I came across a very interesting site. It was entitled: Gay Travel. After looking at the site, and realizing that I was not, in fact gay, I moved onward with my searching. At first I pretended it wasn’t there, but the image was already burned into my head. At first I have to admit I was jealous. I would like my own flight as well. Perhaps an all female flight, complete with chocolate servings, hot-men stewards, and some genuine chick flicks would make me happy. Then it hit me, the nice people at Orbitz have just given me all the things I desired. Imagine if you will ladies, a plane ride full of gorgeous, well dressed, polite men, sipping champagne and talking about fashion and family life. Anything you get served to eat on the flight would probably be mouthwatering, and not to mention that the movie selection will most likely be to our liking as well. I can’t imagine a more relaxed flight, can you?
