I posted about this yesterday on GT: Random dudes who message me on facebook.

This brought back so many memories for me. I remembered all the guys who gave me the "I'm not into you" speech. The time I married a nice man because he was nice, not because I felt any chemistry. The fear I felt when I met my now-husband - he made my breath catch in my throat, and I was so scared of hearing, "You're…

Me too! I LOVED these books!

Dina's never been anyone to rely on. In that family, Lindsay probably had to bring herself up and it shows. Dina reminds me of my mother, who was hardly a mother at all.

And a salve against all our "eating as a kid" horror stories. My husband posted this to his facebook today and I got a kick out of it.

When my biological father kidnapped me when I was 5, he'd give me the belt if I didn't finish my food. Once, the grandfather of the house took pity on me and finished my veggies so I wouldn't get hit. My father found out, and gave me double instead.

Any time a person comes closer to being at peace with who they are, it's a win.

Hey, man, we're all friends here. We can share!

I have such a nerd-girl crush on Chris Hayes.

I was once like that. My mother screwed me up so much, the idea of becoming one myself (and thus, like her, to my younger mind) was the worst thing I could possibly imagine.

That first video, my jaw actually dropped. I wanted to slap the mother the way the kid slapped the cat.

That turtle would have been divested of its head in my house of four fierce feline predators.

I happen to like short, dark hair and wide hips.

Goddamn John Barrowman... *fans self*
