As a USC student in the mid-90s, I’m sure that I saw this guy and that other women I know did too. And yet, none of us remember anything specific about the experience. I think that if it’s your first gynecological exam (which is pretty common for that age group) you really don’t know what to expect at such an exam. I…

great reminder, I haven’t gone to UFYH in too long

I think they explained that a bit with her being a witch so she could slow down her own aging process. But it was very WTF when I first figured out she was playing a GRANDMOTHER.?!?

It’s not the best episode to start with but my favorite of all time is “My Cake” when JD’s dad dies. His brother in the bathtub and Turk hiding his diabetes are so great. We still quote Scrubs all the time. “Finger or toe? It’s always toe!”

I love the bottle episodes, my favorite is “The One Where No One’s Ready” but I also really like “The One with the Ball” (Trifle Thanksgiving is always fun)

This is SO hard because you want an episode with just enough exposition that they get a flavor for the cast and the premise, but enough “extra” to make it worth watching again. Pilots have all the exposition but are usually dull because they are SO full of exposition and character creation. You want to have the…

I’d totally vote for Diversity Day.

I was going to say Band Candy too but I think it’d be less funny if someone didn’t already have preconceived ideas about the behavior of the adults “without” the candy. I might just stick with Season 1 like The Harvest or Witch because they have decent exposition but are still good.

Don’t worry, the Arctic Monkeys are playing the Hollywood Bowl in October. 

My northern European ancestors may have given me a ghostly white complexion with bright red undertones but at least I can drink all the milk. I switched back to whole milk from 2% for my little ones and it’s just the best. They only drink milk and water and when they’re being picky about food they’ll always eat cheese…

We love all the take and toss products. Sippies, straw cups, and utensils.

We learned early on to only put water in “fancy” sippy cups (like the 360). Milk only goes in “take and toss” cups. Fewer parts to mildew and cheaper so we don’t feel bad when they are lost or have to get tossed. They also nest so they fit better in the cupboard. We have a dishwasher basket for lids and straws.

I would be wary of using a pre-installed car seat because the straps may also not be at the right height. We’ve gotten pretty good at installing our Britax seats quickly (especially when I started carpooling in the morning). In my car, installing it forward facing requires the two Latch connections at the seatbelts…

They have 4 seasons of it right now.

I was mostly there for Dawson’s Creek and Gilmore Girls. TWoP was definitely one of my favorite sites ever.

In a pinch, definitely called for no matter how gross it feels. Do I stick with the nose frida and some saline spray? Most of the time when they are little. But soon, you can move on to the nasal rinse and you will be AMAZED what comes out of that nose.

I love my nordstrom and target debit cards. 5% off at Target, nordstrom card gives me rewards and works at Nordstrom Rack (the only place I’d shop anyway). Plus, with red card I always get free shipping and 5% off on subscriptions. Combined with Cartwheel it can be amazing.

That was my first thought too. We had a field job in Santa Clarita, not even quite far enough north to be high desert. Every afternoon the winds would pick up and try to take off with our EZ-up canopies so we had a bucket of rocks attached to the roof. Stakes were simply not enough.

I was SO lucky with baby #1, she was a heavy night sleeper that I had to wake to feed those first few weeks. But she was a HORRIBLE napper, would only fall asleep in the carrier, on the boob, or a combination of the two. And then, at around 8 months, she started waking twice a night and could only fall back asleep on…

I’m so sorry. At least your housing costs are probably a lot lower and it can be really beautiful sometimes. But Ohio weather is also THE WORST.
