That is so true! I thought I was being original with my kids. Nope. I was convinced for years my parents were super original with my name but....it seems that decade my name was a fav name for parents naming their babies of colour. My parents were racy racists, so it tickles me no-end I now share my name with 5…

I love her. I miss her. That is all.

I can't post this on Facebook so I just came here to say: I got laid last night. I complete me :)

I have come to think of the phenomenon as my own personal, 'leading from behind' schtick. Underestimate me at your peril guys.

Haven't touched in years sybann but the triggery smokey scenes last the whole run.

Phew. Was feeling old there...

I take it from the background picture that the wedding with Jon Bon Jovi was relaxed/casual for the mens. But jeans? I love my jeans, and I over wear them I am sure. Also think I would change my pants for a wedding! Is this ok?

I read all three of these, didn't want to tell anyone. Glad others enjoy the YF. Highly recommend! The main character is dark and funny and really develops throughout the trilogy: http://thedanwells.com/titles/ianask.…

Yes. Awesome for you to post a pic. That is the best reality check. I was 10 when it happened to me and, through my three children - that have all passed the 10th year, around that birthday I would go through an amazing and positive realignment. There is such UNshaming power in looking at a pic or a real life child…

Dreadcicles: Those things I have to bring out in a board meeting, in order for you, sir boss to feel good.

What a dick! Omg. That is awesome you got to finish on your words though. Wow.

That would be my physics teacher. Oh dear. I suck at physics. I never missed a class though - this guy was gorgeous. About 6'3", blond, blue eyed. In his twenties. I was 18? and had gone back to school as an adult to finish high school. So yeah, high school level physics. That I could not do. Alas, all I wanted to do…

Do you know what menopause was like for your mother? I think similarities can be expected. I never asked my mom but I think I am getting off fairly easy. For the last two years I've had 4 - count 'em 4 - periods. That is all. I keep getting close to the period-free year mark and I have to start over again. Hot flashes…

That was mine too! I found it really empowering. I remember going for a drive with my dad one day. I was maybe 11. I had an announcement to make: "Dad, I have thought about this, and umm, when I grow up I want to be a writer. I am going to go to school for that and I probably won't be happy about my career until my…

I have wondered what I missed out on by not taking some courses - I never finished high school. But I found the books, and, certainly the experiences. I am (braggingly!) proud of the fact that when I am out or working and somebody drops an anti-feminist bomb - everybody looks to me for my reaction. We can all find out…

I get what you are saying.

Big boobs, small nipples. It is a thing. :)

Wow. I usually follow your comments but, really, you don't get that he is just one more rationalization - y, self-blaming victim? Wow.

I love love! love this. My son-in-law doesn't believe so much in the change of media - he stills see so many awful portrayals of men bromancing at the expense of women, but my spidey-woman instincts tells me it is changing. Slowly, yeah. I'll take this for today.
