Christian romance novels are big around here and the Amish ones are pretty popular. It's usually like "Jebediah asked Enid's father for permission to court her, then there was some conflict over the a English trying to buy their land to build a sinful mall, then they hold hands, the end".

As a professor, I usually have much better experiences with slightly older students (or MUCH older ones!) because they take their work more seriously, follow directions, and own their shit. Be like that and the academic side will be fine!

Fair enough; Amish people never even have sex with the lights on.

I'm about to turn 31 and going into my senior year. It's not so bad, just keep your head down and do your work. Sit near the front, pay attention, study hard, go to office hours if you need help and you'll do fine.

"Hoodie provocative, " or "Turban provocative?" I hope her identity is revealed by the time I wake up in the morning. If she were a celebrity, her publicist would have already given a statement about her going to rehab. Fucking bitch! Fingers crossed that she is the wife of some mega church pastor, and she is…

I wasted my pregnancy!

we just got new one in Tacoma. :(

"I know I could be way off-base since I am not a mother myself." Maybe, just maybe, take a minute and let that soak in. It's not bitterness. It's acknowledgement of how physically difficult and some times gross the process of bringing a life to term and providing it entrance into the world is. It's joy and giggles but…

Anybody who thinks there is such a thing as an ugly vagina, doesn't deserve to ever fuck one.

Untrue. Everyone knows the load bearing framework is all cats.

...And so it was that Adam was restless. All of his attempts to holler at the animals were unsatisfying. The giraffes ignored him in favor of their lunch of delicate leafy branches. The hippopotami sank deeper beneath the lazy, lapping waters. A gorilla ignored him, mostly, and then had the audacity to back hand him…

"Girl, you got a son, honey, get it together. Get it right."
Tears. Just crying. I am utterly blown away by Drea Kelly and Jay's grandpa.

My dad is a retired military naval officer and all he said was, "I'm gonna mess up sometimes and [use the feminine pronoun] 'she' but I'm gonna eventually get the 'he' thing. Just give grandpa some time. I'm gonna get it dude." That was it.

Oh my goodness, who is cutting onions? Just, she is awesome and goddess help the person that hurts her baby.

I once got a Burton ski jacket in a boys 10 for half the price of the identical women's version! Its ironic that vanity sizing has created a situation where my 41y.o. self gets salesperson side eye for asking for the change room at crew cuts, but that's fashion i guess. Not happy until everyone feels shitty about…

Banana Republic and Ann Taylor Loft are really bad. I take a LOT of things to my seamstress, to be honest. Even something like just taking in the straps of a dress. A lot of my clothes are hemmed, tucked, and taken in by my seamstress once I buy them. Pain in the ass, but apparently despite being a fully grown adult,…

For Lands End and like stores, you can find a lot of business appropriate clothes. Crew Cuts has come childish stuff but also a lot of cardigans, plain tops, etc. that don't look very different than the adult section.

I am. And being small isn't helpful. People have asked me when they're going to see their lawyer. Right now I have on a 00 suit from Express.

Actually, they are wearing children's clothes. At least some are. I have a friend who is just shy of 5 ft and a bit less than 100 lbs and she buys big girl clothes. It's kind of awesome because kids clothes are cheaper.
