Sounds perfect. I love anything with nuts. I'll have to check those out.

Truly. "Sooo walk away when it starts then. Is that really so fucking hard?"

Bahaha. You failed to mention the bajillion flights of stairs as the elevator as out. That whole part of the episode made me so queasy.

I always have to force down that glass of water. Not fun, but it's more fun than a hangover.

No idea what a Kind Bar is, but a bunch of water and a good dose of carbs just before sleep is key. Of course, it's hard to make yourself do these things while drunk as a skunk, but it's worth it.

I've never had a hangover. But then again, I started drinking around the time I had a Russian boyfriend who had quite a lot of friendly, drink-loving friends, and they all knew the secrets of how to avoid hangovers. And by secrets, I mean he sat me down and made me guzzle two huge glasses of water and eat some bread…

*crosses fingers*

Even better. And what works is that we haven't decided on a middle name, so you know, "Onestrawplz" is as good as any, right? ;)

Eh. Highchairs and breast pumps are pretty typical registry items. I put everything from $3 to $250 items on my registry - most of the things I got were on the inexpensive side and that's okay, but if I had wealthier folks who were really eager to splurge on my baby, hey, they may as well buy me what I actually need.

She's the best goddamn dancer in the American Ballet Academy! Who the hell is Bradley Cooper? Nobody!

I know it's really dumb, but I'm due in February and I was sort of hoping we'd give birth around the same time because I'm a total nerd. I feel your pain.

That really bugged me. What about all the other women who were planning on giving birth at that hospital?

Yeah...I would guess like 8.5 months. Maybe things are progressing a bit early or someone got it wrong.

Haha, yes. I just finished my BA a month ago at age 26, and being around people in their early 20s just reminded me of how glad I am that I am not so fucking hung up on the stupidest little bits of self-hate any longer. I don't blame any of those young ladies for behaving the way they do (I was the same at that age),…

I'm 8 months pregnant now, and this is the first consecutive 8 months that I have LOVED my body. You know why? Because it's fucking AWESOME, is why. I've always been fat, I've NEVER had what could be considered an enviable figure, but pregnancy has finally given me a great, great appreciation for the amazing shit that…

I was a bit sad too! I'm a big GWS fan/daily reader, and I love her characters. They seem very real to me (talking cactus aside), and I love that though Hazel is not exactly the perfect feminist protagonist, she is a lot like a lot of us - which to me is way more important. Great review. :)

I believe they were referring to Shalom.

I grew up in a big family (though certainly nowhere near Duggar-sized), and as the oldest kid living at home, I did a shitton of childcare/diaper changing/bottlefeeding because my parents had chosen to take on WAY too much, and my dad was an absolutely horrid, lazy parent. I've spent the rest of my life being a little…

A baby ISN'T that big of a responsibility when you pass them off to a big sister after 6 months, I guess.

Um, sorry. I'm not sure what he's told you, but he's actually my husband.
