Please can we not keep attaching the word 'problem' to your natural form, whatever it may be? All women, I believe, can understand the benefits and disadvantages of any particular breast size, but please, I IMPLORE YOU, let's not say they are a problem (you know, barring real medical problems).

This is good - thanks for sharing. We all need to learn to accept our assets. As someone who has had the opposite problem all her adult life being landed with industrial crap sports bras that look like some kind of Communist architecture and friend's fathers mentioning my cathedral bosoms aged 15 (like I KNOW) -…

TEAM WEED

Wine and weed. Only because Jameson isn't on the list.

TEAM CHAMPAGNE

This is my single favorite idea for a March Madness bracket ever. Well-goddamn-played.

Reason with it

I can't stop laughing at the transcription. "Rrrrraaaaaaar!"

This is late, but I saw this and just wanted to say that I'm so sorry. Losing a mother is so hard, and feeling like you aren't living well enough or mourning well enough makes it even harder. I lost my mother 14 years ago (funny, I always forget the anniversary, even though I was there when she died, and it was a very…

You're welcome!

Ah, cool! I'd sleep in one, as long as it wasn't taffeta ;)
Speaking of sleep, I should be headed that way.
Remember, do what's right for you, and be gentle with yourself. There's no one right way to get through this.

your party dress reminds me of 'precious things' - don't know if it's meant to :) and my name comes from the b-52's. so there's music. and yeah, the rain is the best, and party dresses are fantastic - so it all works out.

I'm glad that it reached you - sometimes you can't be sure, you know, where all of these words go. :)

No, I absolutely appreciate what you're saying. Honestly, he had metastatic prostate cancer, and endured a grueling 20 month battle. His passing was a relief.

No need to feel terrible for that at all. And you are most welcome, glad to provide even a teeny bit of support because I know what it can be like.

Sending you many good vibes here. The same anniversary is coming up next week for me. It's a strange one, isn't it? I lost my mum when I was 20 I still never quite know how to approach it after 6 years. I think what I find the most helpful is to remember to be extra kind to yourself and allow yourself to feel and do…

Sorry for your loss, and the coping tactics you went with seem fine to me. My brother died about 6.5 years ago, the week of Thanksgiving... so I'm usually around family at or near the anniversary. One of my favorite ways we marked the anniversary were the time we went to a favorite restaurant of his, and then walked…

No need for apologies. I am trying to go with the enjoy the ice cream while it is on your plate philosophy and see this as an opportunity to reconnect with that part of my family. Peace to you.

My mom's older sister, she is on hospice and probably only has a month or so. And yeah, fuck cancer. I am sticking with juice tonight but raising a glass for our moms, and moms in general.
