I haven't revisited seasons 6 & 7 since I was a senior in high school. Perhaps I should give it another try. I remember there being some really complex adult themes that may have been a bit beyond me at the time. Still, I just love the ending of season 5. That epitaph on her grave was just so perfect and poignant:…

Truth be told, you're most likely a bit dehydrated, especially since you are fasting AND running. Often when we gain or drop large amounts of weight in a very short span of time without taking Biggest Loser level extreme measures, it means we're losing/gaining mostly water. I know that you're not supposed to drink…

Still totally the best. There are so many favorites to choose... I like Hush, Bandy Candy, Passion, Fool for Love, and the Season 5 Finale for being the perfect ending to the show. It really should have stopped there, even though there were some great moments in seasons 6 & 7.

Was a lucky man, sadly. RIP Anne Bancroft.

But part of one's financial compensation for working is health ensurance. For all intents and purposes, employment based health insurance is my "money". You don't get to give me financial compensation of any kind and then tell me what I can and cannot do with it.

I've met him in person! He's very handsome and cleans up real nice in a suit. He is much shorter in person than you'd imagine, though.

Creepy!

I think I threw up in my mouth a little.

I've gotten a few odd ones recently, but this one seemed particularly weird. I was pushing my shopping cat back into the recepticle area when a young man shouted at me from behind, "Hey, Red!" (I have red hair), "I'm interested. In you. You know...like. Sexually." I turned around. "Wanna go on a date?" I gave him an…

I think it looks pretty fab. Sounds like the brand you work for sucks.

Are you freaking kidding me? This is the most absurd nonesense I have ever heard. If my teachers and counselors weren't allowed to slather my pasty freckled skin with sunscreen as a kid, I'd be a red leather handbag by now. Or, you know, a skin cancer patient.

No, no, no. I am not comfortable with any of this. Leave my favorite childhood movie alone! It was already nominated for an Oscar, just let it be.

I have no words for how awful and unacceptable that is. I'm sorry your wife had to experience that.

Wow, your daughter's "friends" sound delightful. I wish I had some helpful advice other than continue to talk to her in a body positive way like you have been. And maybe help her find some new friends.

To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't go there. Mostly because if you plan to be truthful with future partners when they ask you about your past, visiting a sex worker for a lot of women is a deal breaker. Not saying it's right or fair, but I'm saying it may be an issue for many women in your future. Plently of women are…

The end of the year is always a stressful time. It's like that moment near the end of a marathon where you're not sure you can keep going, but the finish line is just right ahead of you. Do your best to take some personal time to breathe and destress or vent if you need to. I find that venting to my mom (she's an…

Sorry your IUD makes stuff difficult. My anxiety meds have really hampered my libido too. But my hubby and I have have a vibrator that's a little bullet on a long cord attached to a remote. He gets the remote, and I get the bullet, and that way he gets to feel like he's involved in creating my climax, not just the…

I totally get where's you're coming from here, but the use of one's underarms and one's private reproductive organs are quite different. And I can understand the parent's frustration with this assumption, it is clearly that, an assumption. She had plenty of opportunities to discuss with the school exactly how the…

But the write up completely fails to document the following from the original article, making its conclusion biased:

She has a right to voice objections, but doing so after she had been clearly notified in advance by the school seems ridiculous. Exactly how much should a school cater to parents who don't bother to read important documents that are sent home for a reason? It's like complaining that your burger has pickles if you…
