I used to work with a nurse that had previously been an ER nurse at UCLA Medical Center. He told me that Brooke Shields came in with one of her friends because her friend’s kid had some kind of emergency. He was taken aback by just how nice she was to everyone. And this is a guy who had taken care of his share of…

As far as royals go, the Belgians seem pretty cool. Queen Mathilde actually had a job (she was a speech pathologist) before she married Philippe.

When my daughter was a baby, she looked like me when I was a baby. She also had some of her father’s features, so I get that people saw him in her. Hell, I saw it in the ultrasound pics. But it was a bit ridiculous after a while when his whole family fell all over themselves about how much she looked like her father.…

You know, when she busts my chops, I cannot help but be proud of her wit and creativity. Even though I am the target.

My 20-something year old daughter refuses to give up her flip phone, and makes fun of my smartphone addiction on a regular basis.

Throw in some Gothic furniture and you have Game of Thrones- nobody smiles, everyone is at least a little bit evil (even the “good guy”), and tenuous alliances are formed. And, of course, the women are miserable.

I’d like to think so. But knowing her, she spun it to them like I am the villain. Though they still talk to me so that’s something.

I once went through airport security forgetting that I had a bottle of flavored lube in my bag left over from a road trip the husband and I had previously taken. TSA found it on a subsequent screening, and asked me about it. I just said, “Just throw it out.”Officer was professional about it, but it was a bit…

I SO understand. I actually found that Ibuprofen worked, but I was going through a bottle of the stuff with every period. Good for the pain. Not good for other vital organs.

I had mine out a few years ago. Adenomyosis that caused severe pain when I would get my periods. When they woke me up in the OR, I looked at my surgeon and said, “Wow. I feel better already.”

I broke up with a longtime friend about a month after the election. She has always been conservative, but the last few years I realized just how self absorbed and unkind she is. Oh and her screwing around on her husband and then desperately wanting to save her marriage when the guy she was screwing rejected her. Her…

This just reeks of “what about the menz!” I’m not saying that the anxiety isn’t real. I know that it is, I know that it is a very serious condition, and I am glad that he is getting help for it. I commend him for it, because a lot of men in this culture do not admit that they need help. That said,I have seen this type…

Same here. I grieve the country we could have had with her at the helm.

Exactly. I have wanted a President Hillary Clinton since 2008, but would be horribly disappointed in her if she ran again. She knows it isn’t a good idea either. Hopefully, Joe Biden knows too. Because as much as I like him NOW, the Republicans would have a field day turning the Anita Hill testimony around on him, as…

Gay conservatives always make me scratch my head, but I have met quite a few. A friend of my daughter’s, whom I have sometimes referred to as the son I never had, is sadly a conservative, gay, and a POC. It’s saddens me, because he is also in healthcare, and I know he is a compassionate person. Yet he supported Trump,…

Took me a minute to figure out which part of the song you were transcribing!

Copy away. Thanks for the compliment!

Oh but he voted for it for the “right reasons,” dontcha know, as opposed to Hillary who didn’t vote for it at all, had no tangible role in drafting it, and made her now-famous comments two years AFTER the law had already been passed.

My hope is that their level of involvement rises to the level of criminality, and that when (gotta stay positive) the Dems retake both houses in 2018, the investigations lead to arrests for obstruction of justice for every slimeball republican who protected this corrupt administration.

Yup. She owns us.
