I have some sort of nerve issue and when it acts up it hurts in my big toe *and* in my vagina. So I'm thinking that there's a nerve that runs the distance.

You beat me to it! A Gazillion times better...

No upset here. Just clarifying...was on duty so my wording might have been a tad muddled from exhaustion.

Not necessarily. My grandparent's marriage was a majorly hot mess. They had six kids, the youngest of which was still in high school when three of his older siblings had already gone through awful divorces. He's traveled the world and made his money. Now, at 45, he's still single. He dates beautiful women for an…

I've been in emergency services for almost 13 years and I work in a pretty...'gritty' area of the south. I've seen a lot of bad things involving the human body and never once felt grossed out, felt the need to puke (okay, maybe once or twice on that, though no actual follow through) or had an issue. That is until my…

Just got home from the after party for the local Roller Girls. My good friend is in our local rec league and I got to introduce two new people to the sport tonight. If I didn't worry that I'd break a leg and end up losing my job due to lack of sick time I'd totally be out there on the floor with her!

ANGRY KITTAY WANTS TO SMOKE THE HOOKAH, HOOKAH!

I've got a twisted sense of humor and come from a side of town a bit on the trashy side so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I love the show myself. It's quirky and funny and yeah, maybe it tries a bit too hard to be the down on it's luck sitcom but damn it I like it anyway.

Unfortunately not all people would agree with you. There are those situations in which people would prefer to be deluded that all is right with the world than have their families torn asunder. Whether it's better or not I don't think I can say but I do know that they believe it to be.

Okay, I'll admit it...your post made me cry. Thank you for that (they were good tears!)

My husband and I discusses it last night and came the decision that we would not be financially responsible for her from now on. It was a hard choice to make and really it kills me to do it. Your words are making me realize it was the right one to make.

Thanks - it feels like a bit of therapy for me just to be able to let all of this out somewhere. So...crossing my fingers...and then having a glass of wine the size of my noggin' and delving into the bathtub with the trashiest romance novel I can find!

I honestly don't know. I've gone over and over this in my head. The day after I found out she was leaving I asked her not to make any specific plans just yet. I was trying to think of solutions so I asked her to give us until the end of July before she decided. That I would fly him down here, get her applied to school…

She has caused so much drama in the past 48 hours it's insane. She knows we're not the type to hold anything over her head so no, it's definitely not that.

Yup...trust me, I'm hoping that I'm wrong. Unfortunately the entire reason she moved here to be with us was that she had no way to survive financially there. Her family had pretty much turned their backs on her for various reasons (mostly because her physically abusive mother and she were no longer speaking after she…

I keep hoping that maybe we're all wrong and everything will somehow miraculously work out. I don't think it will but I can certainly cross my fingers and wish it with all of my might.

She moved here when he broke up with her, and now that he's suddenly contrite she wants to go back, school and everyone else be damned. I offered to fly him here and give him a place to live but she knows that if we do that she is still going to have to face the realities involved in such a relationship. It's easier…

We live in Florida, he's in South Carolina. I have no idea what she's going to do when they kick him out, which they will as soon as they find out she's in that state.

Spending my Saturday dealing with the fallout my 20 year old stepdaughter has caused. I love her as if she were my own but she's decided to throw everything away for a boy who graduated high school this week...whose parents hate her with the fire of a thousand suns. She'll be moving out without any notice save the one…
