I was a 29 year old SAHM with a 1.5 year old. Friends started my freshman year of college and that always brings back that time for me. I still watch reruns all the time.

Sometimes I dream of working in a factory where I can listen to an iPod as a attach a bolt in an assembly line all day. Those guys don't seem to be stressed. I spent a total of 72 hours of my life trying to find out why a stupid "." was being added to the end of an output result in 52953 lines of unmarked, custom made…

Argh. This is why executives shouldn't be allowed to make IT decisions. They don't know diddly squat about it.

RIP Tim Russert.

I have two kids, and I consider it a success if there's not fruit flies buzzing around and 75% of the floor is visible...

I have 4 kids. No such thing as a "clean" house. More like organized clutter with a sprinkle of Legos....

"Jayden" just makes me want to punch the parents in the face. I'm sorry, but it does. That and anyone who thinks they can take a name and put a "Unique" twist on the spelling. It was bad when we started getting Kelli and Tiffani. It doesn't make you look special - it just makes you look like a fucking arse.

If my son's name was Raiden, he'd probably be wondering why I was yelling "Finish him!" during the kiddie piano competitions.

My question is, when did kids start getting gifts for Easter? I remember getting chocolate and going on the egg hunt. And I loved it. We really ought to limit gifts to two times per year—birthdays and the respective traditional religious gift-giving holiday. Increasing it to every holiday out there only makes us more…

There are numerous other features that help protect your account.

If a bunch of white guys were complaining about Indians playing DND and saying it was a game for white people only, Indians aren't good at it and therefore Indian men shouldn't butt in, you'd call that racist right? You'd be offended that your skill level was perceived as non-existent based on your ethnicity wouldn't…

I'm going to go ahead and admit it: my boyfriend has more hobbies and interests than I do. He mountain bikes more, chats with his internet communities more, and listens to more music. A lot of the time I feel I honestly don't have time for hobbies. I could be combing through new music on Spotify every day, but I have…

Hmm, nah. I might be quickly becoming an old man, but it seems kind of worrying to dress your kid in pop culture and push them out for the world to see. "Baby need some likes."

Does anyone want to put money on how many of these stories will take place in Chicago or Boston?

Haha, they spelled "cids" wrong.

My spouse likes horror movies, I don't. I've traveled alone, she hasn't. I'm more chuck it all (though it wouldn't involve a boat) and she's more stability.

Gotta love the NHS. I had two tours of the birthing center with my first kid, a few weeks of pre-natal classes, a private room and then they had a "reunion" of all the moms and babies in that birth class. My next two kids were born at home with the midwives at my house. Cost me a fat zero. Congrats on your pregnancy,…

The Alzheimer's Association has some great (but depressing) support forums at alzconnected.org. They also have an 800 number that you can call for advice. Even from so far away, there are ways you can help your stepmom deal with this. I have a monthly support group for caregivers at the local hospital, and that really…

Just getting this out here, especially for new and expecting mothers: as long as you love your child and have their best interests at heart, whatever decision you make about them is fine. You will screw up at times and will have to make the least worst choice when faced with very crappy options, but unless if you're…
