I've told this story before here. But.

I'm divorced now. But about 2 months after the divorce was final I was on the phone with my ex telling him I was going to be in his area that weekend and wanted to stop by and see the beloved dog he kept (we had two dogs and we split them up), thinking the dogs could play. I had thought the divorce was amicable.…

I had to take my mother to the emergency room while I was visiting her one weekend. I ended up staying for several days because she was super sick and my dad is basically incapable of caring for a houseplant, let alone a human. When I got back to my apartment I shared with my ex, the place was totally trashed and he…

At least she didn't have to make him 365 sandwiches...

take them back to the dry cleaners, they recycle them!

I've commented above that I used to stay late at one job because I got more done - not because I am an inept monkey, but I am an introvert who is sensitive to stimuli - such as ringing phones in the office, people walking around and chatting, etc.

"What does seem more prevalent today than in previous generations is an inability on the part of many parents to be 'firm' when firmness is needed—the main symptom being that many parents today will endlessly whine and try to reason with their children at times when what is called for is a simple, 'That's it, no more…

that was pretty clear in context, but the fact that the thin-skinned dbag kept using it like a gang or fraternity name is lame and contemptible.

I hope this kid emailed back "lolol didn't read."

evidently, you had no party to go to last night, and unfortunately, will have even less in the future.

She probably also thinks that goddamned dress is White and Gold.

Christ on a cracker...do you write all the time...and if not, why aren't you writing like ALL the time?!?!?!

maybe she meant it, maybe not. I have been discriminated against plenty for my desire to not reproduce (which has since become an impossibility) and PLENTY of women think you're not a real woman if you haven't popped out kids.

He's my neighbor and he is lovely

I love that she's married to Greg Laswell (one of my favorite acoustic musicians)...they make such an awesome couple. They should just collab on a full album, duet style.

God, I love Ingrid Michaelson. Her music videos are always, always on point. "Girls Chase Boys" is still one of my favorites. And all the male comedians! I still love Donald Faison from his adorable stint in Clueless.

when my friends find a guy hot I can be pretty sure he is an idiot. when I find a guy hot, I can be pretty sure they find him weird. True stories from my life (ps <3 you friends)

Here's the biggest lie/deception that I ever perpetuated on my parents ...

I worked for a large corporation, and one of our senior executives got subpoenaed for a trial and just had a total meltdown. Refused to testify, begged us to get him out of testifying, etc. So we sat him down and told him to 'fess up, and he admitted he had been dating a woman in the company for two years , kept it…

I eloped when I was 19 to a boyfriend I had only dated a month. I didn't tell my parents and just said we were moving in together. A month later I deeply regretted it and filed for divorce. It took two years to finalize and I had already started dating my now husband during that period. I didn't tell any of my friends…
