I can only offer, you will likely find it is helpful to have a “pre-approval” from a mortgage broker before looking. I bank at a credit union and am currently using them. Compared to other home-buying experiences, the guy at the credit union really rises above the others in terms of efficacy and ethics. In this day…

Great portraits and your smile is super-sincere and appealing. How lucky is your daughter?

How gratifying. I have to hand it to your daughter, I didn’t reach that stage with my own mother until I was maybe, 27? I hope you both benefit from the change and enjoy it. 

Yay!

Christ. As if this life isn’t hard enough, my government is a terrifying reality for all the world and your own isn’t looking great either. (No offense, but Boris doesn’t really do anything for me, and while I think she worked her ass off Teresa May is leaving her post with the UK in disarray). I’m sorry that someone…

No advice, I’m an old spinster with no offspring. Only writing to tell you how impressed I am with your energy and strength. A céilí, and work, and all that travel, the last day of which must have been excruciating. Glad you (and the near-baby) are home safe and sound. What excitement, how lovely to be having this…

Nothing up here, only cheers! And how awesome that your whole future is waiting around the corner, with no one knowing exactly what that will be. Only, it will be wonderful. Or, as Eddie Izzard says, “Wunderbar”!

A lot of people really benefit from self-talk. Great advice. 

As someone who has completely self-sabotaged on the job, not once but twice (!) I would offer this: I have learned that other people have fucked up worse than I ever could dream of doing. People often recover, though it helps to have resources, either internal or external. When I crashed and burned at the job site it…

So painful, even so.

Hello to all the Jezebel commentariat wherever you may be. I’m only saying hello, not a lot happening around here of any interest, but best wishes and safe travels to all of you who are roaming and traveling across the world. I have a bit of a sad face this week as my long summer vacay draws to a close. It’s been a…

Straight out of PG Wodehouse. I approve.

Omg. That is incredibly funny!!

Oh, man. To be young and enrolled in a ‘study-abroad’ program. That ship has sailed but I love reading about your memories. For the second time tonight I’m writing, ‘The past, indeed, is a foreign country’. 

Yes, was there and can’t wait to go back. Given your post my next visit will be much more informed. 

Great post, sorry I missed it last week. But better late than not at all. Your writing is really evocative and entertaining. I hope to see more!!

Great reference. I googled it for you:
