At City of Hope they had a Casino Night one evening while hubby was being treated. They had a few teen patients come up and participate and the pics might be sad to outsiders but the truth is they had fun, talked smack, and had a chance to get out of their rooms and do something a little different. This kind of thing…

BTW, overshadowed because of the ridiculous reaction of manbabies to the Ghostbuster’s trip to a Children’s Hospital, I thought John Green’s take on Cara’s interview really great. I loved his defense of her. He comes off like an amazing author I’d like to try...I’m just afraid to read books designed to make me cry. :/

I know, the trend I see on FB is how come someone that works at McDonald should get the same wage as an EMT. My thought, why are EMT’s so underpaid?

And they would no longer qualify for government assistance which a full time worker should never need to rely on in the first place.

It was Mexico, but the books were a twofer. I knew that after the first 400 pages in the first book that my husband would love them, too. I just told him where to start and said those pages could be summed up with Daniel being a brilliant Puritan. p.s. Shaftoe is probably one of my favorite characters of all time.…

Me, too. I used to drag all sorts of books with me on vacation, some in carry on, some in luggage, and leave/donate them at my destination when done, this also allowed for having space to bring home stuff bought on vacation. My nook has replaced that. I never once had my books questioned. Even my big ass Baroque…

When I was a kid my dad was stationed in Hawaii. We didn’t got to summer camp but all of us 6th graders went to a camp on the beach for 3 days. We didn’t meet anyone new, it was just the same old kids, but it was kind of cool. And it didn’t cost anything. A mongoose looked in on me when I was washing dishes, I still…

Not my story (and not a horror story), but a story about my friend’s kid & camp. Her 13 year old kid was super PISSED at having to go to a really cool leadership camp. There was all sorts of problems on the pickup (her daughter flew) etc. and my friend was feeling super guilty. Daughter calls, crying and upset about…

I may not like her views, but the thought that she should be ruined for suggesting a pageant was rigged is gross.

You know who wouldn’t be getting special treatment or have a blind eye turned towards them? A black activist who the guards thought attacked a cop physically. I say B.S.

Look at it this way, they are 25% of the 30% that are the Republican primary voters. So fewer then 10% of the population. I can buy that 1 in 10 people might be an idiot.

I remember the FBI not trusting her because she had a notebook with everyone’s transgressions recorded. That person takes long breaks, etc. I knew someone like that once, she was toxic..

I’m not even a Clinton fan and we could do worse than her.

Killing me. “Others abandon the landing altogether and go-around to try again.”

LOL. But I do see people eating donuts/muffins/croissants and caramel coffee drinks for breakfast. The bulletproof coffee might be less calories overall, so they might be getting results the old fashioned way, by less calories overall.

I was just at the Crossfit Games going on in Carson, CA yesterday. Bulletproof Coffee had a large booth and a big line. I’ve tried it before, and it just felt like an overly rich (tasting) latte. I liked it but wouldn’t do it regularly because it seems like an insane amount of calories when I’m fine with a regular…

Back to my old comment elsewhere. I don’t really care whether or not it was a suicide, she didn’t belong in jail, basically in solitary (with wakeup calls every hour since they couldn’t follow their own rules on checking in on her) in the first place. So reserving judgement into the actual cause of her death doesn’t…

The same reason why I think that the cops that hogtied the chemical engineer said he od’d on LSD before there was time to get toxicology reports. To cover themselves and to make the victim look bad. p.s. And I know the dead asthmatic engineer might have taken LSD, who knows. they just put it out there before they…

My worst/funniest flight was a short one. I won’t name the college basketball team but they all got on board and sat down. Soon after take off the giggling starts. Then the smell. The guys then got louder and louder with their rip roaring fart competition. A woman in a business suit stands up and yells “Aw, come…

Regarding the blood and way TMI, for some reason when I was younger when I was on my extremely heavy periods my nose would frequently bleed, too. I once went to the restroom (my own) in the middle of the night because I had to change my protection. I was too late, it was all over my legs, etc. and then the floor,…
