@delirium.megans: I immediately suspected that would be the plot. I think you've hit the nail on the head.

@likepenguins: Because you are the umpteenth person to state that you aren't allowed to discuss salary, I will put this out there:I'm not sure your employer can legally prevent you from discussing salary under the National Labor Relations Act, contract or not. According to this article ([www.usatoday.com]):"The NLRA…

@KatyLou: Seriously. I want to ask him if the doesn't remember this incident, does he remember the many incidents before this when he beat her? Because something this severe doesn't happen the first time.

@judgingnora: without insurance, mine was going to be $65 a month. can you switch to a generic?

Um, Florida state attorneys? Determining the constitutionality of a statute is *specifically* the job of a judge. You might disagree and you can go ahead and appeal the decision, but the legislature doesn't get the final say on the meaning constitution.

The movie was good, but the book was awesome!

@greengrey: I was thoroughly confused by tying the plaid shirt around her waist, and the boyfriend jeans outfit. Really? That's how I dress on a sloppy day - in 1995.

@greengrey: Yes. While a few outfits were okay, several of them reminded me how poorly I probably dressed in middle school - probably shopping at JC Penney, as I did.

@funnyface: if you haven't already looked into it (and you can still opt in), the government is currently subsidizing COBRA to the tune of 65%, which helps tremendously towards keeping your health insurance payments close(r) to what you paid when employed.

@cuteasabutton: I understood her quote as saying she is shocked when someone actually bothers to write an awesome role for an actress of her age. Which is true, there are a derth of such roles in movies today, and it's a shame more women like her aren't getting work.

Go go Sotomayor! I just watched the final vote on CSpan and I'm thrilled.

@PrettyB is like Whoa: Ooh, or Cam D.

BI: Heidi Klum. Wacky, Hostess, Angel?

Just as I got used to having Crappy Hour back in my life! Damn, Megan. Congratulations and all that jazz.

@FattyCatty: I agree with that. I've also always been of the opinion that you shouldn't get married until you have weathered some difficulty as a couple as well - whether an illness in the family, long distance, whatever it might be. Seeing how you and your partner handle some adversity together will give you more…

@mattharvest: how is your interpretation any less of a projection, pray tell?

@eri401: check out today's crappy hour.

@BiteMeMitchell!: gotta agree with everyone else here - bump Middlesex to the front of the line. it's amazing and I'm considering re-reading it right now since it's been a few years. it still remains the first book i recommend to anyone looking for a good read.

@kaiwhakamarie: to be fair, i'm pretty sure it's a myth that hair grows back thicker and darker just because you shave it. you didn't cause the change, your genes did.
