To be fair, a lot of doctors will recommend cutting back instead of going cold turkey right away because it IS a huge stressor and thus potentially more harmful than smoking 1 or 2 cigs a day - though obviously they would likely ALL prefer someone quit completely. The fetus craving nicotine is total bullshit, however.

Also, this could be dangerous for an early pregnancy if the mother decides to not terminate.

Oh yes. And I didn't give a fuck, especially about dolly spinning. No one puts baby doll in a corner.

Bahaha. I split my head open at age 4 or so because I was spinning my doll around rapidly ("dancing") and ran into a big entertainment unit.

I ended up with a fella from a solidly middle class background (that I had to teach how to be poor so we could live together and not go completely broke).

*applause*

This is always how my family did it - a big family holiday for us. I super don't give a fuck (and never did) about the romantic angle.

Hooray! My baby is due on V Day and I'm hoping he comes on it!

I'll forever be grateful to my parents about their treatment of Valentine's Day. My dad would always make pink, heart-shaped pancakes with strawberry syrup, and my mom would give us some small, sweet token like a new pair of fancy valentine socks or in richer years, a nice piece of late winter clothing like a cute…

I think this is one of the reasons there is still plenty of teen pregnancy to go around. In my high school, there were plenty of young women who either hoped to get pregnant or were indifferent about it, because they didn't plan on having much of a future anyway. Their parents and grandparents had gotten pregnant…

That would be so incredibly uncomfortable - how would that even be WORTH it?

Derp, edited for my lack of reading comprehension.

I'm so jealous! I can't even wash my hair the night before - by about 1:30 PM it's like the Exxon Valdez spill, along with my face. Boo for oily skin/hair. Of course, I'm so used to showering every day out of necessity that even if I no longer had to, I think I'd feel weird skipping.

My lip colors tend to change with the season, but other than that, it's pretty much the same.

If it makes you feel any better, I have one that loves to sprout on my goddamn THROAT with the same frequency. Of course, with my neck being shadowed by my face and all, I'm constantly feeling for it with panicked paranoia when I remember that it exists.

I'd wear the FUCK out of any and all of those things in the article if they came in plus sizes. I've always loved the fashions of that particular era - if only we paid such attention to detail these days with most clothing.

I've had amazing luck with CL. Not sure if it depends on the city, but at least in the Portland, OR metro area, I've found great, reasonably-priced apartments every time I needed one through Craigslist.

HotPads and Craigslist are my favorite for finding rentals. I think I found every apartment on Craigslist, though I did check out a few good ones from HotPads And yeah, Rent.com and such are total shit - does anyone actually use those successfully? They can never seem to tell you what's currently available or how to…

It amazes me that people like this are ignorant enough to think that any cashier of some big corporate outfit have ANY authority on anything like this at all. I always correct my friends when they say "so and so [some position on the very bottom of the corporate ladder] couldn't do such and such thing for me. Gawd,…

Even in a high demand neighborhood, I think landlords prefer to keep a good, clean, reliable tenant over the costs and work involved with prepping a unit for a new renter.
