I'm seeing a chocolate chip cookie.

Same here. I have that thought every time somebody somewhere posts a playlist. Ugh.

That is weird considering New Orleans loves its booze and cocktails. Yes there is more to NOLA than Hurricanes, Hand Grenades, and drive through daiquiri shops.

Here in my neck of the woods (SE Louisiana) we have ginormous grasshoppers similar to that called lubbers. They give me the willies every time I see one.

I use malarkey often. I'm a teacher so this is a safe word to use at work.

My sister was adamant about nothing associated with a "traditional" bachelorette party. . There were just three of us as bridesmaids, and one of us lived out of state and wasn't going to be able to come in for a party. My birthday was on Labor Day that year and I'd already planned on going to the beach that day. After…

Sing or draw/paint. Artistic ability runs strong in my family but I was directed down the academic path rather than focus on artistic endeavors. As a result I'm never happy with anything I attempt, and feel like I've got little creative ability.

Yes they have. I've seen pictures that I can't unsee no matter how hard it try.

I've used bae for years now. I remember my dad's best friend and his wife calling each other bae 35 years ago. Does that mean I have to stop using it too? I'm all for booting the rest of them, though.

Does anyone know of a gadget that duplicates the intense warmth and light of a tanning bed without the UV radiation? It's that combo that I love beyond belief. I couldn't care less about being tan. The light and warmth work wonders for me when I feel myself slipping into a major depressive funk but I don't want to…

I'm working on close to 44 now and I still check in with my mom every day. Doesn't bother me at all. I think I check in more now than as a teenager. I actually find it kinda funny since some days she expects it and on others is all whatevs. She can't seem to decide how to view me - as her grown ass woman of a daughter…

Exactly. My school district does not allow phones at all. Scientific calculators all the way. I could get severely reprimanded for allowing a class to use their phones. I'd rather keep my job and deal with calculators.

Pan fry them. Mmmmm.

So did I. Still have mine in a box in my attic. The pictures that is.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who got that reference.

Scrunchies for sleeping foreverrrrrr!!!!!! Gotta corral my hair at night or it will strangle me and TriLamBoy. Scrunchies are less damaging.

TriLamBoy and I have not discussed it formally yet, but as our plans for each other involve never letting each other go, and fighting tooth and nail for our relationship, we will be getting married once the crazy financial situation he's in from his first marriage is straightened out.

I've been with TriLamBoy for 6 months now and still haven't googled him. We actually had this conversation just the other day. We met on OKC, but due to his job and ex he keeps a low profile on the net, so there were no pictures of him online and I never asked for any. When we met face-to-face the first time, I had no…

I-10 through Louisiana is pretty though - all the swamp land.

Mmmmm. Guys in well chosen baseball pants are a glorious thing. They have beautiful asses.
