This is indeed heartbreaking news. Has the son obtained a second opinion on the cancer diagnosis? It’s always a good idea to get independent confirmation of such a serious diagnosis.

It’s easy to keep if you don’t drink, go to bars or have standards. *shrugs*

Everyone: “Water is wet.”

I don’t know about you, but when semen spends any time on my skin, it makes me itch like mad. Maybe I’m just allergic. 

Musician. He’s a frequent unannounced “special guest” around these parts. If I want to avoid him completely, I have to stop going to gigs, which I refuse to do.

Thanks. I just needed to put it out there into the world. I know what I need to do- avoid him as best I can. 

Queen II, Sheer Heart Attack and a Night at the Opera are the best of 70s Queen. Skip the 80s (though if you have to include one, go with The Game) and add 1991's Innuendo, which is spectacular.

Last Spring, I had one of those destined, magical, sparkly meetings with a man. But...he was inaccessible. It was a very LA story, you see. I saw him many times after this and it was always like that, a click, a big spark, lots of mutual staring and smiling but nothing else. I last saw him a few weeks ago and he’s…

My numbers weren’t “bad enough” and they initially didn’t want to give me any medication, even though my quality of life was nil. They told me to lose weight. I was 100 pounds overweight at the time, but I had felt just fine for awhile! I had known something was wrong for over a year, but knew it would be blamed on…

I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 13 years ago. The most important thing you can do is take your medication correctly, which means with water a minimum of one hour before you injest anything else. Space out all supplements by a minimum of four hours (especially calcium). I would avoid soy because it is a goitrogen,…

Being sent away is much better than being around parents who resent you and aren’t capable of being parents. I WISH I had gone to boarding school. But women will always be judged harshly, no matter what they do or why they do it.

Leave The Family Stone out of this!

She has an entire book called “The Unspeakable” and nothing about the topics she covered were “unspeakable” to me.  It was tired. 

NIN?

I’m late to this party. Oh well.

I’m going to vote for “dumb.” 

Yes! I bought a couple of nice dresses from Ann Taylor about four years ago. That must have been the tail-end of them using high quality fabrics because it’s been full of utter crap ever since. 

That’s not a new thing.

I test drove a used Honda CR-Z a couple of years ago when I seriously thought about off-loading my 2011 Mazda2. Holy shiiiiiiiiit I felt like I was driving a coffin. The lack of visibility was terrifying and makes the view from this one look generous. (I still drive the Mazda2 and will continue to do so until it’s…

...I’ll be in my bunk.
