I'm surprised by my own reaction because I'm such a huge advocate for personal choice when it comes to sexual health, but this frightens me a bit. I'm not sure how many 13 year olds are actually partaking in this program (the linked article doesn't provide any statistics) but I'm afraid that the majority of 13 year…

I wonder. Do the flight attendants and pilots know the identities of the air marshals on their flights?

Also, my guess is Phil doesn't have much (if any) student loans and he is portrayed to be a very successful real estate agent, whereas Mitchell could just be a lawyer at a mid-sized firm who is still or just finished paying off his law school loans.

The largest container I had on hand was a tupperware gallon (approx. 3.8 liters) pitcher. This was just enough room for the rising of the dough - I think I had about 1.5 inches from the top to spare at the end of the 2 hours. Because my pitcher doesn't have a good seal (due to the missing cap to the pouring spout),…

I just wanted to report that I made this bread on Saturday and it came out wonderfully. I initially had trouble getting the yeast to activate because I don't think my water was hot enough, so instead of throwing it out I added a tablespoon on maple syrup and then microwaved the water, yeast, salt and maple syrup…

That French dude only brought drama to poor Jed. Sweeps drama!

Awe, I adore Mandy Moore! And I had no idea that she was Repunzel in Tangled. If I had known earlier I would have seen the movies in the theater instead of watching it on Netflix last weekend. She's so darn charming!

To be fair to this illustrated orange cat: cats really do hate water. ;-)

Oh no...I never thought of these and now I must seek them out.

Yeah, there will always been a little place in my heart for Shane just for his work on Once & Again. I LOVED that show.

My cat ALWAYS has to be in the bathroom with me when I'm going. I don't get it. And if I shut the door on her...kitty meltdown time. Ah, my little perpetual toddler. But she doesn't ever jump on my lap. That's something, I guess.

Yeah, I have to agree. While not gross, I was horrified when a woman fell down the stairs ahead of me during rush hour once. When she hit the bottom and regained her breath she blurted out, "I'm pregnant!" and whole group around her audibly gasped. It was horrifying, but I think she was ok as she was able to get up…

Ok, this puts things into perspective. I was feeling really bad for my husband last night who had to get off the train a few stops early because some drunk dude was vomiting all over the place. That WAS my #1 gross-out subway train horror. A severed head? Yeah, definitely many, many times worse. And come to think…

LOVE! Also, I'm just trying to get this out there to everyone in hopes that TPTB are listening: can we please get a Best of Tina and Amy Weekend Update DVD?

Can we please, please, PLEASE get Cougar Town back now?

EW! Adrien Brody - you are so gross! Go away!

I wonder if these could possibly be better than my beloved Puffins Peanut Butter?

As I love to tease my Bob Dylan-loving husband:

Oh, poor man has vanished from the limelight and needs to buy some attention. Hack!

I have to say my biggest noise issue has finally gone away. I sit on an open floor/non cubical arrangement, so I'm 3 feet from the person next to me. Everyone has their own little TVs tune into the news channels. The admin. who sat next to me ALWAYS kept her TV on. And the tinny sound it produced drove me up the…
