We call that need for cuddles "pawing up" in our house. Our yellow lab is pretty persistent too,

A friend of mine had a Hemingway cat. (With 6 toes.) It looks pretty easy to get one:

My story is similarly sad. I was in first grade and my parents were divorcing. My mom starts telling me Santa doesn't have much money this year, yadda, yadda, which finally leads to "oh hell, there's no Santa." I still feel robbed of my childhood.

Yes, southern accents can make people sound dumb. I'm southern too so I'm safe to say this. :)

I just watched season one straight thru and big dummy that I am went looking for season 2 right away. I was devastated to learn there wasn't another season. :(

I had a very average pregnancy as far as sickness, discomfort, etc. but it was bad enough that it made me even more solidly pro-choice. You should not be forced to endure pregnancy if you feel you cannot.

I really hope those brows come back because I could easily grow those. :|

I laughed. I'm from the SC coast.

Thirded! These work great for me too. I can always squeeze in 20 minutes and they really are a good workout.

Where's kitty's helmet??

ISL. I like it

Yes, Obama caused climate change.

Totally agree. I usually love her look, but not this time.

Ooh, perfect combo!

Me too. I know of way too many convenient "miscarriages" with these types.

It does? Okay, I feel dumb because I don't get it.

You are a terrible mother. How can you LIE like that??

My son just turned 3 and I find there is a lot more coaxing and effort required to get him to cooperate than when he was 2. While I agree "lying" feels wrong, sometimes it's the only thing that works. Do you consider lies of omission bad? Sometimes there's just not enough time In the day to explain things to a toddler…

Truly. I will be using this starting tomorrow.

Okay, I'm getting kinda scared. I bite my nails, sure, but after reading the comments i'm realizing i do a lot of other twitchy things I didn't think much of before. I must be a total basket case!
