LOL, in 2002 my best friend bought an inexpensive and lovely knockoff of the Rose dress at Contempo Casual, then last minute decided to get a much more expensive version with a poofy ass skirt. Bad decision.

I wore a red-and-black (satin?) tartan ballgown to prom. It was basically this (not me) without the straps & petticoat. No, I am not Scottish. Yes, I was medium-goth.

1986, junior prom, Pink ball gown with a pink satin bodice with lace and off the shoulder sleeves. and huge hair, huge dark brown curly hair. HUGE Hair. could not be big enough.

Ugh, was my prom a mess. I was dating a guy who told me he was 22 but was actually 28 (I’m grossed out just thinking about it). I was 17, 16 when we met. He kept trying to be weirdly controlling but it just didn’t fly because I didn’t get why he was so whiny when he was supposed to be the mature one. A few weeks…

FOUND IT! Remember Gunne Sax? This is not me... but it is my dress. It matched (sort of) my date’s BAND tux. Barf.

I only went to one prom - my senior prom. I had just broken up with my boyfriend of 3 years a few weeks beforehand so going was a last minute thing. I went with a friend. My mom made my dress. I was very much into Phish at the time (YES, I KNOOOOOOW) so it was a cotton patchwork dress, SUPER fucking casual. My date…

We say the 5, not the I-5.

True story: my first apt by myself was this little tiny studio in a 15 story building. Being brand new to the building and not knowing anyone, I spent time by the pool and got to know some of the residents. One I only came to know as Spider (never asked why but the huge, poorly drawn spider tattoo on his back was my…

Another second-born here, plus the middle girl of 3. Also am the only one raising children, happily married and never divorced and steadily employed for the past 12 years. BUT I will concede that I am the black sheep in a Filipino family for having married outside my race (a black guys, coincidentally).

2nd born, can attest to being the biggest trouble maker (not with the law, however), also the most successful, personable and normal.

And that kid grew up to be Sean Spicer?

Yes!! Join!

I find it useful to publicly take accountability for a fuckup. Mine tend to be in the break room admitting it’s my old forgotten lunch stinking up the common refrigerator, but nevertheless, it feels good. If this helps them heal and move forward on the Becky deal, good for them. And Ms. Carter, bless her for her words.

I actually shouldn’t complain much, I haven’t experienced a second of nausea with either pregnancy, but I do hate the tireds!

Re: Eminem and his beard

Have you tried requesting your child’s birth records? If the panic was caused by something to do with the baby especially during or right after delivery, it could be documented by peds, not OB, so it wouldn’t be in your own chart.

Speaking as a labor and delivery nurse, there are probably a lot of thing going on that you don’t know about. Maybe she had been ruptured for an extended period of time. Maybe she’s GBS positive. Maybe she’s not dilated in the slightest and only having contractions every 10 minutes. Most obstetric RN’s are strong…

This is a thing.

It’s really simple.

He is exactly my type, and even resembles my husband a bit in stature. But this is one time when the personality just overcomes everything to the point where I just cannot imagine. Not even a hate-fuck. Maybe part of it is also the fact that I am Jewish, and he is the very stereotypical self-hating Jew who is only…
