I'm type A to the max and I stay home with the kids. I hated my job, it didn't pay well, so it didn't make sense to keep working and barely be able to afford the child care. I kick ass at home. We eat great, I can mend clothes and fix up the house. I volunteer in my city and for my daughter's school. I run a Girl…

I'm with you, comrade.

I sobbed into my coffee watching it this morning.

My husband likes the picking and I love to pick.

She might be fine, but if she's sobbing that she wants to be home, in her own bed with her family there, I'm going to take those needs into account.

Oh, I can GO ON and ON about this. I dated a youth pastor during a brief phase of trying to come to jesus for my mother's sake. He told me he had done missionary work in Africa. He had cool African masks hanging up in his room. He said he was in a band and played a burned cd of what I thought was his band all the…

I couldn't do it. I have two kids, and it was a bit easier with the second kid, but not by much. I was barely able to have a 2 hour date with my husband when the little dude was 2 months old. First, my boobs would leak, so there's that. Next, my hormones were all working against me and I craved that baby like a drug.…

I'm kind of with you here. On one hand, it's great when mothers can be women and do things they enjoy and take that mom hat off sometimes. Having had a few kiddos, though... I can't imagine leaving them that little. Even my 6 year old can really only do a weekend away before she misses her parents. I think if I were…

If living without potatoes is the way to a perfect body, I'm choosing the potatoes and we'll run away together and elope and be happy forever.

AHHHH!!!! I'm a parent of two in the SF bay area and we're middle to upper middle class. My husband and I were both raised in very poor households so we're constantly worried that our kids will turn into assholes because they have a lot of class privilege that we didn't have as kids. It's just not that hard to talk…

That's pretty much all I got out of that story/pic too. Her hair and lipstick are awesome and I shall copy it today.

No, no, no. I don't know where you heard this, but it's completely wrong and tacky as hell. If you want to use a metaphor, instead of your bar scenario lets go with a date. Usually the etiquette follows that the asker pays for the date. Whoever planned it and invited the other person is responsible for covering the…

Who is this?

I still think Cher did it best. I remember the first time I saw the "Turn back Time" video and I gasped. I was probably in elementary school or early middle school. She was sexy and a little dangerous looking in that not-an-outfit! Oh, it sets my heart a-flutter.

It pretty much just made me want to walk my dog late at night, whilst being horribly paranoid.

Crying into my coffee cup already.

I'll second that. In my experience, the couples that get all romantic and stuff on FB tend to have weird issues that are simmering underneath. My hubs isn't at all into that and I don't see the point. If I want to tell him I love him mid-day, I skype him. Or text. Or call. Basically, I go for private interaction and…

Twatwaffle is going into my insult rotation asap. Thank you.

I think that's a good plan. I was brought up in a really fundamentalist christian household that fucked me up. Besides being abused and all the therapy that has required, that religious indoctrination has taken years to undo.

Ugh. I grew up in Riverside county. I hope they catch him soon.
