During my mother's pregnancy with me, she bled a great deal, like having-a-miscarriage level and was rushed to the hospital where they found a heartbeat (mine). This led her to believe that I must have been a twin, and that she lost the other one. When I was a little kid she told me about it, but as I got older and…

When I was young I really loved Molly and Samantha. I actually remember thinking that I was more of a Molly (who I perceived to be nerdy) but really wanted to be like Samantha (who I perceived to be more glamorous). I'm half-Mexican and half-White so I'm not quite sure how that played into it, with my dark brown hair…

I happen to have catalog sitting in front of me right now, as I was about to order some accessories as a gift for my niece. The dolls are arranged as follows:

You clearly just read that out of my heart.

This is the comment I was looking for, as it is the primary reason that I refuse to shop there.

Limes sprinkled with salt! Deeeelishus.

A woman after my own heart! I go out of my way to pet other people's dogs. It's disgusting, but I don't care. I do what I wantttt. Pits are seriously just adorable bundles of love, and the butt-wiggle kills me.

This is my child, Murphy. He's a super snugly 11-year-old lab. Murphy loves everybody, and notoriously will climb up on the couch and fall asleep on visitors' laps. Such a love-bug, this one. I am so helplessly in love with him.

Oh my goodness, I just got all misty eyed thinking about your grandpa. That is such a beautiful story, thank you so much for sharing.

I read it, and now feel really pleased that I've never owned any clothes from Abercrombie. What a creep.

Hahaha my mom was just bragging about how our lab has always been such a great dog and I had to remind her that, as a puppy, Murphy chewed through the leg of a chair at our kitchen table and when we put him in the garage he chewed through the dry wall until he reached cement. I call it dog-love amnesia.

Me too. I'm tend to get teary at lots of things, but still.

Like Lolo, I also suffer from foot-in-mouth syndrome so I sympathize with her there. Additionally, just because most people have experience running (in some athletic context) a large number also seem to have the misimpression that they could just hop out on a track and win a race against competitive track athletes. As…

I tend to agree with you. I just graduated from a notoriously liberal university with a long history of radical political action. While those themes still matter to the student body at that university, I was always shocked out of my lefty-bliss whenever I would speak to people my age from other institutions. I am a…

Amen, girlfriend. I am 5'10" with major hips, and I was competitive as a sprinter in high school (unusual for my size), but I am not a competitive distance runner at all. Sprints or long distance, I love running, so anyone who would like to advise me not to run can suck mine.

I agree, Butchy Benson was just more kick ass overall. I also use her as my hairspiration, but now that she's not rockin' the short and sassy do's I feel slightly betrayed.

I am completely addicted to Law & Order SVU but also suffer from second-place CrimeID addiction. When I visit my parents' I promptly hijack their DVR and record a ton of episodes so at any moment I will have some crimes to vicariously solve.

I love him! I got my BA in psychology, and though I have since decided to go a different route with my future, I love his analyses and how he just breaks it down for those mothafuckas.

You and me both! My parents and my boyfriend have seen me performing the theme song in full. All parties were similarly unimpressed by what I've done with my time since graduating from college.

Are you me? I cannot stop, and I don't want to either.
