98 Degrees

August 5, 2011
When Teddy gets hot, she usually just rests in the shade like most bears do. But yesterday she was so caliente (she has a thick coat of fur) she just had to take a bear dip.

Afterwards, Teddy laid around, trying to lighten her fur. All bears like summer highlights.

Teddy hasn't heard from Nibs in a while. Where can he be?

Nibs pops up so often that when he doesn't appear Teddy gets nervous!

Anniversary Cake

August 4, 2011
Teddy and Nibs have been together for 10 years now. In bear years that's like 1. You see, bears live a long time. With them, it's like the reverse of dog years. To celebrate Teddy bought a very fancy cake.

Vanilla, rum, fruit. What's not to like?

Teddy wanted two slices but Nibs stopped her, saying, "Teddy, why don't you start with one?" That Teddy!

And that was the celebration. Just two bears, one cake. Life is good.

After The Final Rose With Ashley and JP!

August 3, 2011
Teddy made it a marathon evening. After taking in The Bachelorette, where JP Rosebaum proposed to Ashley Hebert, Teddy watched the After The Final Rose Ceremony. Because she's a sucker that way.

It got a little tense when Ashley faced rejected potential fiance Ben F. But he seemed to take her brush off well which made Teddy think that he could be perhaps the next Bachelor.

Once she was done with him, host Chris Harrison brought out the winner, JP! Ashley jumped up from her seat, ran to him, and planted a big kiss of the guy. Looks like love!

Ashley is moving to NYC next month to be with JP. They are getting an apartment together. Serious! ABC also offered to fly them back to Fiji. Another success story (so far).

Ashley Hebert's Engagement Ring

August 1, 2011
Tonight was the night! Finally Ashley Hebert hands out the final rose to her man.

JP chooses a square cut diamond ring from Neil Lane. CLASSY.

Awww, the proposal in Fiji! As Teddy predicted, Ashley selected JP Rosebaum from NYC who got down on one knee and asked for her hand in marriage.

Ashley said yes, of course, and he slips the ring on her finger. Here is a close up shot below. Nice manicure Ashley!

What do you think? Teddy thinks JP made an excellent choice!

JP Proposes Tonight!

August 1, 2011
Yes, today is the day we all see JP propose to Ashley Hebert on The Bachelorette. Awwww. Get your Kleenex out.

Are you anxious? Teddy is. Blogger Reality Steve reports that JP gets down on one knee in Fiji and offers her a big diamond ring from Neil Lane. And she says yes!

He also spills that Ashley plans to move to New York City to be with JP. Don't forget to set your DVRs! It all starts at 8 pm on ABC. After that comes the After The Final Rose Ceremony. It'll be a long night.

Jillian Lauren Is Back!

July 29, 2011
The other night Teddy was reading the August issue of Los Angeles magazine to check out the latest and greatest her city has to offer.

She was shocked to read that her favorite author Jillian Lauren (she penned Some Girls, which chronicled her real life experience as a member of a harem in Brunei) has written another book!

It's a fiction book called Pretty: A Novel about one woman's experience in a beauty school. Teddy can't wait to buy a copy on Amazon.com when it becomes available on Aug. 30. (Click blue link for a quick pre-order.)

See, there is Jillian above in a little Q&A about why she went from non-fiction to fiction. Go Jillian!

Felicia and Teddy Cocktail Talk

July 28, 2011
Felicia said she needed some sister time. Uh-oh. "Of course," Teddy said. "Come on over for some cranberry juice on the rocks!"

"Teddy, I want Edward to propose to me," Felicia said frankly. "You got Nibs to pop the question fast. How did you do it?"

Teddy was stunned. "I had no idea you were that serious," said Teddy, which really wasn't the truth, but she didn't know what else to say. "I gave Nibs an ultimatum, actually. I said marry me or else! It's my style."

"Did I hear my name?" said Nibs, who popped out of nowhere, as usual.

"Um, er," Teddy stammered. "I don't know!"
