I was thinking the same thing. Then I was thinking, Maybe that's when the baby will be able to fit in to the shoes? But miz's reasonable suggestion that she means January makes a lot more sense.

I had to stop and think about the same thing. It's August, so it's hard to think about 6 months from now being Winter 2015, even though that's one legit interpretation.

I know, I had the same thought initially. I always think of winter as starting in November or so. Working in retail in breaking me of it, a bit.

WOW. I would have guessed that she'd just quietly send a check and skip the bucket.

She's probably due in January meaning she got knocked up in April. Ish.

Looking pretty Judd Nelson here.

Robert, to quote Laurence Olivier, "You really should try acting, dear boy; it's ever so much easier."

Yes, we will do that on the same day that anyone gives a shit about what you think.

Its not a coincidence that the cops started cracking down tonight. They knew the autopsy report was going to drop and this is a great way to both distract from it and use the few protesters seeking confrontations as a way to build support for the police and their actions. The cops may be heavy handed and just plain…

Petty Annoying Things. Four way stops. All drivers are going straight. Instead of Northbound/ Southbound going at the same time, then EB/WB going, everyone around me thinks it takes 4 separate turns. And lots of hesitation between each turn. I want to get out of my car, stand in the middle and explain how it should…

my MIL went the whole hog and wore black and never smiled once! I had family and friends all day telling me she was sulking and crying all day. Like the toddler she was being, I just ignored her bad behaviour.

"But not in a crazy way, more like a Lauren Bacall way."

I don't think it's outdated at all! There are a million colors to choose from, and choosing white (or ivory) to wear to someone else's wedding is tacky as all hell. A friend of mine is getting married at the end of this month, and her own mother will be wearing a white formal gown. My friend says she has no problem…

So I just got back from a Saturday night adventure. But first, some background: I share a car with my brother. Technically our dad owns it, but it's typically used by us two. So we usually run by each other when we need the car and make sure we're not stepping on each other's toes. The only real rule is to not keep it…

People who wander slowly down the middle of the sidewalk so I can't get past them.

My petty annoyance is clicky mouth sounds from people on the radio. For the love of God, please, hydrate!!! Also, people on the radio with sloppy speech. Also, people on the radio trying too hard to sound sexy. I guess I listen to the radio a lot. In other news, I'm going to a friend's wedding tomorrow—in teal : )

This is a petty language thing, but I don't like it when people flippantly refer to themselves as "poor" when they mean that they can't buy all the beers at the bar that they want to/afford to go to Mexico this year/have to get a used but perfectly fine vehicle/can't replace the Macbook they dropped in the fan right…

I am really embarrassed about how sad I am to be grey again. I am a self-actuated woman of substance, and I am sooo bummed to be grey. I've been commenting user the same name for about four years, under another name for two years before that, have a few "friends" among the other commenters, and feel like...I will just…

I'm know I'm a lovely shade of palest dove gray, but I just have to shout this one: I'M NOT FUCKING PREGNANT! I'm smiling reading through the comments section and seeing that others are getting their reproductive answers granted - babies in wombs, yay!-but I do not want little ones. I just don't. My husband feels…

Last weekend was the Warrior Dash and I was feeling really good about myself. I got some time away from the monster child and gained some perspective- I have decided that her behavior while directed at me was not really about me so I stopped taking it to heart. I stopped rising to the occasion and just basically tuned…
