NoVA yogis: I need recs for yoga studios. Changes in my schedule make my home studio not very convenient anymore. I'm pretty sure I've read every Yelp review for every place within a 20-mile radius, but nothing really stands out as stellar for my needs.

Lambrusco will complete the trilogy.

I wish I didn't take Yelp as seriously as I do, given all the shadiness that goes on with reviews being filtered or removed, and businesses being able to buy a good rating. I've been stalking reviews of yoga studios in my area, and wow are there shenanigans. There are an awful lot of studios with only five-star…

The elitist, liberal DC suburbs of Northern Virginia saved the Commonwealth in this election. You're welcome, Virginia. Now give us back a fraction of the money we send to Richmond so we can have better transportation options, kthxbai!

I love that the day it started to get dark at 5pm coincided with the day the temperature dropped from 60s to 30s. I also love that my having a lazy Sunday morning and not getting out of the house until 2pm meant I had only three hours of daylight today. Womp womp.

A lot of well-thought responses, thank you! I want to take the time to respond to each person, please bear with the delay.

Definitely seek medical attention to find out whether you've suffered permanent physical damage. Be honest with the doctor about how much you drink. If it turns out not to be too serious (risk of harm from cold-turkey detoxing), is ramping up your physical activity an option for you? I noticed that when I started…

Grad school or homeownership?

Pixie Espresso Machine, $229 (frequently on sale in the $180 range at places like Sur La Table and Williams Sonoma), Nespresso.

Yes! I was going to post the food chopper. Love it. I use it for salad, soup, and omelet fixings.

I don't know how old you are, but honestly, after a certain age, you'd be hard-pressed to find a partner who doesn't have herpes. And hand-wringing about it seems to be strictly an American thing. Relax and enjoy yourself.

The comments on this article make me feel like I've left Jezebel and ended up on Corporette or some other god-forsaken blog whose purpose is to cut down female competition.

I am really tempted to write a scathing review about that wine glass. I don't understand why it's a feeble 23 oz vessel when a bottle of wine is 25 oz.

People evangelize about yoga because no other activity offers the same mind-body uplift. I was a skeptic too, but then I became a believer, because no other exercise lessens my anxiety as well as yoga. I've also never been in better shape in my life, and my body doesn't ache nearly as much as it did when I was a…

That's why you're supposed to do yoga on an empty stomach. Good instructors will tell you not to eat anything at all at least an hour beforehand, and no heavy meals for four hours beforehand. Whenever I hear complaints about farting and other intestinal issues, I think...whelp, someone didn't do it right.

I am curious about the idea that pilates is less harsh than yoga. I find pilates to be a million times more strenuous than most yoga poses and couldn't imagine doing the mat stuff with limited mobility. Then again, I have zero core strength and can't even straighten my legs at a 45-degree angle when lying on my back.

I recently decided to get into yoga. I'd been dropping into classes a couple of times a week at my gym but never did much beyond that. Then I found a studio with a great monthly rate and started going every day. The change has been phenomenal.

No, cheese is awesome because its presence makes wine a valid dinner. And ladies be loving wine for dinner.

I like traveling alone together. I enjoy hours just wandering around neighborhoods, lingering at certain sites while speeding through others, and I have learned that my tempo almost never matches well with companions. So we'll start the day together, do our own thing during the afternoon, then meet up for dinner.…

100% of the people dating online are there because they struggle to meet suitable people in real life. That is the whole purpose of online dating. The reason why they struggle may vary — sometimes they're legitimately great people who just don't travel in social or professional circles where they meet potential…
