I really enjoyed the series 1 and 2 of the Showtime series Secret Diary of a Call Girl. I find her tips to be very valuable for a woman like myself who’s in the dating scene and a workaholic.

• wear men’s deodorant and no perfume so he won’t get caught
• “shit, shower and shave”
• misspellings and poor grammar in emails = bad guy
• work a lot if you enjoy it but it will interfere with your personal life no matter how hard you try
• try not to go crazy and share your story with people (exhibit 1. this blog 2. twitter)
• have him shower before playing

Sometimes I find myself trying to imitate her accent – but to no avail.
