Hi there, fellow Austinite! I agree....sadly I just can't with SXSW any more. Remember the people that got killed last year by that driver? I love the music scene here, live close to downtown, and go out to see some band pretty much every weekend but MAN South By is the time to find alternative activities. I'm going…

1. I know nothing about celeb couples, but I like this Fred and Natasha rumor that you are passing along.

Yes. I've been using that technique ever since I read that article. It is life changing.

That's so cool! I studied ASL for 3 years and firmly believe everyone should know at least some basic signs.

No worries about the drinking and smoking in early pregnancy. The damage is done if you drink and smoke a lot throughout the whole pregnancy. But you probably aren't pregnant. Most all women have a late/missed period once in a while. If you miss two in a row, contact your doctor.

This does not make sense. And if something doesn't make sense, it's not true ( according to Judge Judy). I'm calling bullshit on this post.

EEK! I just saw a typo where I say Waimanalo beach is "on the tourist agenda"... I meant it is NOT!

Fellow Austinite here. I go to Hawaii a lot, specifically Oahu. Not Waikiki, stay away. Head over to the Windward side, Waimanalo . Rent a little house right on the beach called "Surf Sweet". That's where I always stay. Easy to find the link online. There are many companies that arrange beach weddings there if that…

I'm in Austin, I was thinking the same thing! I LOVE the Alamo. Will need a place where we can go hate-watch and laugh and drink with a group of likeminded people.

Thank you. I was trying to explain "The more you know" to Mr Zulu while Katy was performing but he just wasn't getting it.

I got my coasters, they are great! Thanks!

I told her today and it was fine. I appreciate your input!

I agree. Mr. Zulu and I had that discussion last night...we never would have expected people to turn their lives upside down just because we wanted to get married. I think weddings are weird. And so many people we know get divorced anyway, it seems kinda dumb to make a huge deal out of something that has a pretty good…

Thanks, I told her today and it went fine. I guess I've watched too many episodes of Bridezilla and expected to be on the receiving end of a meltdown. Thanks for the advice!

Yup, I told her today and it wasn't a big deal at all. Thanks for the advice!

Could be your thyroid, it's worth going to the doctor and getting that checked.

HELP I need help, so I hope this gets pulled out of the grays. I got asked to be a bridesmaid. The bride is a friend that I see about once a month. As an introvert, that counts as a close friend. I've met the groom twice. I don't know anybody else in the bridal party. When she asked last week, she said I could wear…

I'm having my teeth whitened in a couple of weeks. I can't do without coffee, so am planning to drink it through a straw way in the back of my mouth, I hope thats's a safe compromise....

This baby is hiding an ice pick and will stab my eyes out if I don't say it's cute. OK YOU'RE CUTE!!!

That sounds great I can't wait to try it!
