Pasty is the look to court as a teen - the 'nerd' girls who get knocked for being so damn pale? Let's just say you definitely get the last laugh later. A few months ago I ran into a few of the cheerleaders who gave me so much crap back in the day and dang near widdled myself laughing. I don't tan. Can't. I practically…

I am such a dork...

It's such a nice change of pace to see celebs actually using their money and connections to do real good! The scarcity of fresh healthy food in so many cities is mind blowing - I manage to cook and feed my husband and I really healthily on about $60 a week (and because I have celiac, we both eat GF at home to same $$…

Eep! In the long reply to that, I made an error in typing, it's supposed to be that kids in Switzerland AREN'T picking up those guns. Wish I knew how to edit a post. God I hate tech some days.

Had actually written a reply last night when my brain apparently took a holiday and somehow managed to cause a twitch that ripped the computers powercord out of the wall. There are days when I start to think I'm seriously not cut out for technology. Trying again -

Oh thank heavens someone reacted sensibly to that idiotic statement. It isn't about the gun. It's about the 7 step PLAN to rape and murder another child, using a knife as well, that's the issue. To default to "Blurgh, Guns BAD." is just... ugh. Did the guy miss the point where they were openly playing with a knife…

Guys could skip the whole 'asking' thing and just go straight with the yes being assumed like my husband did - save a lot of nervous bother all around!

And not only am I not okay with a stranger coming to my house with my purchase - with no way to really trace WHO this person is and why they are on my porch... I can't really think this is safe the other direction either. Some poor schlub trying to get a discount on their OWN purchases goes, without any real trail of…

A year ago, I likely would have taken you up on the offer for the smacking. Between celiac, other issues I'm finally rebuilding my system from (let me put it this way - if I was a building? My parents would ~never~ have gotten a permit to build me. Nothing close to a solid safe foundation to work with. Thankfully, a…

Not as often as the length of these replies is starting to make me think I should... jeesh, sorry about this. Didn't really realize I was such a little rage bomb waiting to go off until, well. About 2 hours ago. It's getting better, it's just frustrating. One of the biggest problems is that celiac is a hidden disease,…

I've been told - I'm lucky, that it's not FAIR that losing weight is now so EASY for me, and my personal favorite was when the wife of a friend of my husband's went into an honest to God hissy fit about how wrong it is that life is now so overwhelmingly easy for me because I have such a lucky break to have celiac -…

Amen and damn skippy. Every time I have to hear a friend tell me how 'lucky' I am to have celiac and how great it must be to have such a great diet, I have to resist kicking them in the shins. Hard. Because they just reenforce the idea that this IS a diet, it's a choice (well, okay, fine. Technically it is, I could…
