Sigh. There aren't new necessities but what the necessities are at the point of marriage has changed. People getting married now are essentially where people getting married twenty years ago were five years into their marriage. They usually share a living space, and have all the "living space" things. They are saving…

Well, no, what we're saying is that "what we need to set up for a life together" is different today than it was twenty years ago.

Okay but isn't the heart of the tradition to set the new couple up for the new lives together?

Oh honey, no it's not.

How'd you get there?

I feel like if I compiled Andrew WK's party tips and disguised them as a self-help book, I would create the happiest legion of followers.

Yeah! That's the one!

There's a Kathy Griffin story (from years ago, and obviously not really comparable) about how once, Ryan Seacrest ripped her shirt open onstage unplanned, and Nelly and his crew came onstage right after, and each one of them stopped and asked if she was okay. I love Nelly.

Yep, and then because I'm neurotic, I think no one likes me/my question was stupid or inappropriate.

Well my advice is to comment there more! The people there are very nice mostly!

Can you take a Vicodin with some melatonin and just sleep through the pain and also the side effects of the Vicodin? Melatonin shouldn't interact with the Vicodin.

It's much much easier to get in the black on Groupthink, which makes it easier to develop a connection with Groupthink posters, which makes it easier to get posting privileges (although I have not sought them yet but that logic makes sense to me).

Hey, as far as your daughter goes, she might pick up on the fact that you're uncomfortable, but if you're not actively saying negative things about your body she's probably not going to actively hate her own.

That's some bullshit. The people who say it's bad etiquette, not the desire. It's your wedding! It's about you, and your fiance, and to some extent your immediate family.

There aren't really "mods." As I understand it, you have to be followed by Jezebel, which can only be done by an author, so you have to get their attention.

The ongoing care on it's own doesn't seem strange to me. Seizures are strange creatures, and since the cause is still unknown, it makes sense that doctors would want to keep a close eye on things.

To be fair to us Jezzies, most of the posts I saw were from people who didn't realize that post-baby weight wasn't just all-over weight but still included a "bump".

This is coming from a place of really wanting kids, so take that into account if you wish.

Thank you so much. I'm kind of really excited about this! I'm worried kind of about advertising it though.... I'm not necessarily comfortable posting it on facebook or anything, so I don't know how much it would get read. But oh well!

Ugh some of the shaming here.
