Ouch! Married to bipolar—- that Onion article is TOO REAL.

I had that same question until yesterday when I saw a man standing next to a public trash can, eating 2 bags of potato chips. When he was finished, he casually dropped both bags on the ground behind his feet and walked away. I have so many questions.

Scallywag is SO HOT right now.

I’m with you. My husband is a drama llama. And while I’m still new enough at this to gently remind him that randomly texting his rival brother about how he *really* feels about brother’s life choices will not end well, it’s not like I can wrench the phone out of his hands every second of every day.

The Voices was incredible. He really pulled off what for a less charming actor would be an impossible character and premise.

Once I was driving home at night (about a 90 minute commute on the narrow and winding Pacific Coast Highway) and two guys in a truck kept trying to get my attention. I refused to look, thinking that if I ignored them, they’d stop. But no matter how fast I drove, they just kept catching up to me I could see them…

I know what you mean. Here in Philly, we all know the neighborhood homeless population and their stories and know which corners to check before a Code Blue winter night and who will take leftovers from a night out. But it’s SO different in California. I have been mildly “attacked” by a homeless person every time I…

Or maybe depending on where you live there are pests to worry about! My grandfather kept a spotless kitchen because if he ever let up for a minute, there’d be roaches waiting, whereas I can leave dishes in the sink for a week and not worry about any insects.

They all look EXACTLY the same to me. I am so unrefined.

I love to read, but I’m trying to lose weight. So my self-care lately has been mostly listening to long audiobooks on long walks. Luckily the weather hasn’t turned cold. In the winter, this might have to move inside to a treadmill, but that sounds less like self-care and more like torture.

I used to think I was the “jealous type” because I wouldn’t have trusted my ex-bf in ANY of the above scenarios. Turns out, he was just a cheating son of a bitch. Now, all of the above scenarios sound fine, because they are perfectly normal and I married someone I trust completely. Also, after a couple of years of…

Not sure if intentional, but I love that you changed ‘au pair’ (meaning something on the lines of barter-paid-employee) to ‘au pere’ meaning to the father. LOLOLOL— that’s their REAL purpose!

Me too! My neighbors must think my marriage is secretly on the rocks...

Hello happily-singing-breakup-songs twin! Just this Monday, I was primping for work and belting off-key to Icona Pop’s “I Love It” and my (clinically bipolar) husband walks in and comments “What is it like to be so happy all the time?” We laughed.

Tip #1: Be super awesome.

Eileen Fisher, Faded Glory and Coldwater Creek? I’d rather die.

My husband is like that... but he also sometimes works late shifts and always wakes me up when he gets home. Then 2 minutes later, he’s asleep, while I’m stuck awake for another 2 hours. I’ve been tempted to let the dog run around our bedroom when I leave in the morning.

I couldn’t get past “Scombridae.” Stomberdey?

Interesting! I had always heard the exact opposite. That endurance-run-hunting was the reason human beings can out-endure almost all other mammals. http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/…
