Tina Drakakis (eyerollingmom)
I am a tremendous fan of all things witty. If you are funny, you are likely my friend. I would leave my husband for Jon Stewart, Keith Urban or Sawyer from "Lost" and he's well aware of it. I am happiest writing and raising four kids (yet I'd trade any or all of them for great shoes). I tend to drink WAY too much wine if the music's awesome and I spend WAY too much time on PerezHilton.com and I've (okay) allowed my kids to see PG-13 movies WAY before their thirteenth birthday. I still have girlfriends from fifth grade and think that's a beautiful thing. I wish the same for my daughter. My Skirt! essays include "Little Baby Fug" (January 2009), "The Thinking Girl's Thong" (July 2008), and "Friendvy" (January 2008).
Words I live by: "Put on some lipstick -- you'll be fine."
I am most proud of: 4 kids presently evading jail time.
I am most guilty of: Poking fun at everyone, everything, anytime. (Including me.)
The world would be a better place, if only: Lindsay Lohan would go away.
Profession: freelance humor/lifestyle columnist; reality-TV-has-been
