This just went up at the end of my street and I immediately felt like my playground had been invaded.

yep. middle name anne for my mother’s sister who died at 3 days old.

We did at the last one I worked at, too. The cooks would bitch about it, but whenever we notified them we had a food allergy order they were serious as the grave about breaking the grill down and adding in a clean panel that could not have come into contact with any kind of shellfish As someone with allergies I hope…

I had the same lunch, and for some reason my mother always felt compelled to put the sandwich at the bottom of the bag under the apple, guaranteeing a nasty smashed mess.

Me too. I’ve been single for ten years or so now. Stuff just never happened for me I guess. I can’t tell if I’m a little bummed about it because I am, or because I feel like I should be. My friends have stopped telling me that they have some great guy I have to meet and instead send me text pictures of cute dogs…

I still cannot WAIT for the honest trailer of 50 Shades to come out. It’s gonna be amazing.

Totally TMI, but you kind of asked, my best friend, her sister and I are all prone to getting yeast infections from tampons. We all made the switch to the organic, non bleach kind(the non-bleach/chemical part I think is the important part) and the infections stopped. All of us at one point in time have tried to go…

No. He started off as a fairly well respected heart surgeon.

My dad used to love it when the Mormon guys would show up wanting to talk about religion. He didn’t want to talk about god, but he would totally feed them and give them some coffee if they wanted to come in and talk about football.

When I was first in college my friends kept coming up to me and telling me that there was a girl on campus “that looks JUST LIKE YOU!!!” I totally dismissed it and didn’t think much of it until I drove by this girl walking down to the parking lot that similar hair, and when I did a double take, I almost drifted off…

I live in western new york and there are a couple of farmers that ride into town on summer nights to get a slice of pizza. I love going out for a walk and seeing the horses tethered to the tree in front of the parlor.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my disgruntled self. It was just a long week that ended with a cold shower because the hot water tank was dead, mice keeping me up because they’ve been running around inside the walls, and then the legs snapped off my ancient futon and the center of the damn thing hit the floor…

Thanks so much for your kind encouragement(seriously). I’ve been trying to do this, it’s just been one thing after another like dental and car repairs that demand I fork it over. It’s life, I’ve just been in a funk lately. It’ll come around. It has to.

I HATED that book in high school just because it was a humorless slog. Now I have a giant black male cat, who is also a humorless slog and is therefore called Silas.

i am so broke and so sick of working a dead end job psychologically abusive job and living alone in the country in a shithole apartment and i am just worried that life is just going to be one long slog of hoping that things get better and they won’t; just working and waiting to go back to work. i’m in my mid 30s and…

I wish I could star this a million times and do something to bump this up higher because it is such an important point that people misunderstand.

I feel you. I had a winter living off of cabbage and potatoes from the farmer’s market. If I never eat another bowl of colcannon as long as I live I’d be ok with it.

“Bullshit pie made of sadness” That made me chuckle and feel sort of sad inside all at once.

I agree, the magic is in how screwed up they all are when they’re together.

I want to be excited about this. I’m convinced the reason the last season was so lackluster was because they split everyone up. When things are really good, it’s because Michael is playing the straight man to his completely fucked up family. They need to put them all back together this time around.
