Honestly, I doubt anything you would say would make their pain worse. As you say, they are keenly aware of the anniversary and it will be painful for them no matter what. If you sent a note saying that you were thinking of your friend and maybe talking about some nice memories you have of him, that would probably make…

I don't know if this would work for you, but if a month so too long, maybe you could split it up between two places and spend a couple of weeks in two different parts of the city?

Yup, my guess is that this was a photo op to show Kim being a mom.

I don't think it's necessary for parents to leave NYC. They just need to be courteous of others. It's not so hard to do: make sure you aren't blocking the sidewalk or store aisles. Apologize sincerely if you realize that you are in someone's way. Thank people who help you. In other words, just do all the stuff any…

The guy who came to fix our steam heat system of a similar age told us that back then they thought that having fresh air all the time was important to good health, so they purposely built the radiators too big so that it would be warm enough inside during the winter to have the windows open. I don't know if it's…

Yeah, I think so too.

I actually like lettuce as a bun replacement. That way you aren't wasting stomach space on bread that could be used for fries, onion rings, a shake, or whatever else. Plus I like the crisp texture of the lettuce as a contrast to the burger. But mainly it's about not being too full for fries AND onion rings.

Mine was the same when he was younger. We also use cloth diapers, maybe that helps, I don't know. Now that he is feeding himself finger foods he goes through more outfits (if we are stupid enough to leave clothing on him while he eats). But we've never really had poop explosions.

Have you tried Radio Lab or Planet Money (both NPR)? If you need to fill hours, maybe audio books would work too?

It may be a regional thing— I have never heard this piece of etiquette either. I never got a separate card from any of my guests' plus-ones, nor have I ever given such a card. It never would have occurred to me that my husband's cousin's girlfriend (for example), who lives in a different city and we met for the first…

Comments about her name were all over the comments under the last story Jezebel posted about her.

I also like Ryder Hesjedal, professional cyclist.

I replied to SparkleSparkle about this— my dog has allergies and the situation was really bad. It got to the point where he tore a huge patch of skin off of his leg by dragging himself along a brick patio trying to stop the itch (along with lots of other wounds he gave himself biting and scratching). My regular vet…

Have you taken him to see a veterinary dermatologist? I know, it's kind of ridiculous, but our regular vet didn't seem to know what to do (he didn't suggest Temaril-P either), and the dermatologist took one look at our dog and knew exactly what needed to be done. Something that was complicating things for us was that…

What pills is he taking? Mine is on Temaril-P. It is kind of expensive, although not nearly as expensive as the allergy testing and shots. It has made a world of difference— he is 100% normal now after chewing a lot of his fur off while we tried to find a way to get his allergies under control. And it is ok for…

I am happy to not take pictures at someone's wedding, and there is something seriously wrong with someone who can't comply with that request from a friend or family member. But do not try to confiscate my phone. I am not a child.

Recommending and replying to try to help keep this near the top of the page so people will see it. (Is that how it works?)

There used to be an email address tips@something (sorry, I don't remember exactly what) where you could send suggestions like these— maybe check and see if it is still around? Since it is Sunday night I don't know if any of the writers will see this.

I went with my first husband. It helped a lot, in fact I think that if we had continued going it could have saved our marriage. One of our major issues was a total lack of ability to communicate with each other, so having someone there to help was a game-changer. We stopped going after only a few sessions because he…

You can definitely do this— the only thing that matters is that your husband and kids are supportive and ready to help with whatever adjustments you all need to make to make it happen.
