I’m just saying, wait until baby is born to decide on a name. You can imagine all the scenarios you want but when your baby comes out you’re going to look at him or her and instinctively know what to call them. For example I was SURE that my child was going to be Joan Elizabeth in memory of two grand mothers and we

Is the woman holding Asahd, Rachel Dolezal? Because talk about a doppelganger if she’s not.

I just lost 6 minutes of my life that I can never get back. This up there with Adam Sandler movies. They feel vaguely funny while you’re watching but afterwards you are just filled with regret.

Dude - east coast - http://jetro.com/ is the way to go. Also I am a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE fan of soup/deli containers. My local supplier refuses to sell me just lids though - we go through those way more often then containers. I reuse and reuse and reuse and if they get gross I don’t feel bad about recycling them.

YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. I am so happy. #80schildhoodTVnostalgia #forthewin

If the working women of London don’t find the perp, the runners of London will. I’m an american working woman and also an occasional runner and I’m mad as hell.

I would be very interested in hearing what the NEA 4 have to say about this.

As the mother of a 15yo girl with both Aspergers’s/HFA/ASD and ADD, who was not classified until age 12, they claimed that part of the reason she wasn’t diagnosed until then was that she was so high functioning. But it also is because she didn’t present like boys do. Even today as part of a small community, I know of

You answered your own damn question - it’s NEW JERSEY. Where almost nobody has to parallel park because there is room there unlike NYC.

This is my rule of thumb when driving anywhere outside of NYC.
Pre-map times with Google Maps.
What ever Google Maps says, Add 1 hour to get out of NYC. Add 1 hour for a holiday weekend. For every 4 hours Google maps says, add 1 hour for rest/pit stops. Yes that is the equivalent of 15 mins per hour.

I promise, no matter what your “theme” is for your wedding, or even if you have no theme, 20-30 years down the line you’re going to look at the photos and just cringe at the fashion. Look at photos of weddings in the 80s and you will simply just say, “UGH” at the big pouffy shoulders and the sundress hat on the bride.

I know the Mom. She posted on FB last night “He just caught the game ball with his left hand.. Oh did I mention that he was holding our daughter in his right hand. # winning ”

This PISSES ME OFF. After living in NYC for 17 years, and not having a car for most of them, we recently got a 2004 XC90. NYC drivers are the absolute worst about using the shoulder and I ABSOLUTELY move myself over just slightly into the shoulder to make those jerks slow down at least. #passiveaggresiveatitsfinest

I have: 13yo, 14yo, 19yo, and 22yo. I believe it is my sole purpose in life to embarrass them as much as I possibly can before they grow up. My favorite is when we’re out somewhere and one of them says, “Can you please talk quieter mom?” Reflexive response, “WHAT? YOU WANT ME TO TALK LOUDER? SHOULD I TALK ABOUT THAT

He is pretty hot.

In retrospect, looking at these dolls, yes, they are totally douchey dude bro. But please don’t destroy my 80s childhood nostaglia. Heck I seriously crushed on a guy in college because he looked so much like Ken. (I saw him again years later with his wife, he was totally douchey to her, so I guess your theory proves

Is it just me or do they all look like douchey dude bros? Guy in the “Hawaiian” shirt looks like he belongs on Jersey Shore. Give me 80s Ken or give me death.

I’m 43 so I don’t know what the fuck that makes me, maybe Gen X? I had GERMAN Jewish grandparents, from Germany, and let me tell you, you eat the marzipan. Surely there is good marzipan and there is bad marzipan, and it’s impossible to tell from just looking at marzipan shaped like fruit, but you just eat the damn

I was listening to some Ani DiFranco before I played this and I have to say - is it just me or does she sound a lot like Ani in this song? I mean the dance beat underneath isn’t Ani, but the sound of her voice and the lyrics are very Ani.

As the mother of a child who is “legally blind”, in most states you can be “legally blind” and have some vision. That means lots of different things. For my child it means her peripheral vision is so far gone that it’s like looking through a straw. The central vision is relatively “okay” with glasses, but the
