Hmmm...maybe C.J. Cregg? Is that a boring pick? I really love her; I don't care.

Your description of your dog in the tub - the hardest I've laughed all day. I'm sorry you have to deal with that, but also not, for the sheer joy you just brought into my hum-drum day.

Just know that you're not wrong - there is nothing wrong with wanting your own space! See if you can enlist a rational friend to gently remind you of this if this person tries to guilt trip you, or if you just need a boost. And good luck!

It's not reasonable to expect anyone - friends, family, partners - to answer every one of your messages immediately after sending them. I had a similar thing happen with a friend. I wish you all the luck in the world, but be prepared for a possible blow up.

Thank you for posting that. I'll pass this video along to the people I love.

I haven't cried like this for years.

I remember polar bears and being angry that things with Walt never resolved to my satisfaction...

Holy shit. That's just...holy shit.

I really loved this list.

I read #4 as 'Peeta', and my brain translated the rest as 'from Hunger Games'. (Full disclosure: I have been drinking.)

In the hamper! On top of the dryer! Uhhh...folded at the bottom of the closet?

I am very jealous of you. He's got that brief role in MI:5 and (SPOILER) I was very upset that he didn't stick around for long. I would like more Josh Holloway in my life.

I wanted to agree with the other things the year-plus copper IUD users were saying. I've had mine for about a year and a half, and the first five or six months were INCREDIBLY crampy. I would pop three Motrin at a time to make them even slightly bearable. But at just under a year in, my cramps fell within the…

I don't think that option A is crazy at all. I have a similar degree to yours and I've often thought of going back to school and getting a diploma that would let me have a job with more stability. If you had said, "I'm crazy passionate about my humanities work; I can't imagine filling my day with anything other…

My Bf just said, "You can't tell me these freaky things, because I'm going to start doing them just to get a laugh. Wait, what are you typ—"

I never really had an opinion on Diddy before now (is 'meh' an opinion?) but I have to say that I kind of loved that.

Can you suggest girls' nights? That's what my friends and I do...most of us are coupled off with guys, but every few months we get together without partners to talk about whatever and catch up.
