Yay, I found a new job Thursday. It doesn’t pay as well as my current one, but at least it’s closer/isn’t closing in a month, so there’s that.

Ahhhh, the fervor of the newly converted. Whether it is Jesus, Adkins Diet, Paleo, Veganism, Bikram Yoga, or whatever other wagon these jacks jump onto, the bleak months of being proselytized to are no fun. Bonus: Idiots who get into one whack-attack trend, tend to follow up with another, and another, and another.

Well, I’m done for the night: my dog just laid down beside me and put his head on my lap to sleep. I will be here, doing nothing but reading this blog til he moves.

Hi all!

I’ve been doing yoga for a little over 20 years and have only tried headstands against a wall a couple of times when I first started. I’m never going to do a real headstand either, and I’m fine with that.I have enough stress in my life without worrying about how good an exerciser I am.

Going on the assumption that this isn’t an April Fool’s story: You’re gonna scare ONE of them. One kid is going to take one look at you and freak the fuck out, you’re gonna have to take the mask off and spend ten, fifteen minutes calming him down, then put it on and start over but the moment will be gone and the whole…

Yes. My 4 year old daughter is obsessed with Darth Vader. When she heard Anakin Skywalker called “Annie” for short, she decided that she must BE Darth Vader.

lunchtime seaweed???

I love this.

Aw, I love your dad. And I so sympathize with 15 year old you! :)

I’m going to go with hate it, because there are ways of addressing sexual assault and creating safe spaces that end up being counterproductive or making women’s lives worse.

There’s not enough whiskey in the world to make any of this alright, Kiefer, particularly your “singing.”

idk y’all, after the Jessica Lowndes/Jon Lovitz debacle, I’m waiting until Friday to believe that this is a real thing he’s doing. I mean... it’s so goofy.

Bless this random stranger.

Twinsies. I regularly go to the traveler’s section of department stores to see what tiny new items they have for emergencies.

If your coffee didn’t taste like shit before, it does now. And it’s cold.

I feel like, even if this had worked, it would end up being a great way to make your coffee smell horrible and taste weird. Given that boiling eggs the normal way gets the whole kitchen smelling sulfury, I just assume if the coffee was hot enough for egg cooking, the smell would be an inevitability.

I had a company that did that and it was so great. Saved me many dollars and quite a few trips to the drug store.

My workplace stocks tampons for us in the bathroom. This guy is better than my older male coworker who stopped by the box of tampon boxes in the storage room and incredulously guffawed, “Ugh. Should I also bring in a box of jock itch cream?!”

Dear God, THANK YOU, for writing this. As a sufferer of this hellish fucking illness, discussion about it is long overdue. Although I don’t agree with everything written, I’m ecstatic that its being discussed at all.
