I've found my clan. I still swoon over Paul Newman.

Yes! Paul Newman is still the most beautiful man I've ever seen.

STOKED! It's a great idea.

I got up at night to pump for a few months and the lack of sleep nearly killed me. I was dead set on him being "exclusively" breastfed but I could not pump enough while I was at work so I had to add in the extra session at night during his long stretch of sleep. I wish I could somehow go back in time and tell that me…

This made my day. Thanks!

YES. I was starting to feel like I was reading bizarro-Jezebel.

Same for me. I debated waiting so it would be covered by the Affordable Care Act but I thought it might be overturned. Hopefully we can get our next one for free!

The anecdotes I read online about IUD experiences never match those I've heard IRL. My insertion was just not that bad (I've had a baby) and I know several other women with IUDs and none have had these horrible experiences. I am not doubting anyone's experience, I promise.

No, but I'm still sick so I guess I'll head to the Village Voice next. :)

I'm home sick today so I've spent an embarrassing amount of time reading about Scientology, particularly Marty Rathbun's blog. And I still don't understand any of it. It's totally bizarre.

Sure, I was really skinny through my 20s and could eat anything. But I don't believe that she doesn't work out because she looks fit and toned. Most people have to work out to have muscle definition.

Yeah, I'm thinking a least half of these are joking, right???
